I suggest you familiarize yourself with good projectors, ideally suited for creating a home theater. At the same time, we will talk about the features of this models.

I tested two projectors, I want to compare them and share my impressions. The Optoma HD142X is a FullHD projector with a low price, a sharp appearance, a compact body and still boast amazing color reproduction. Image 1080p turns out crystal clear and it can easily be compared with a widescreen TV, while the picture from the projector will be more than twice as large.

In BenQ image looks very sharp and very bright. I think that this projector is ideal for films. Take the time to calibrate the image to your liking, and you will be quite pleased. It was easy to set up and easy to use.

The only drawback of both models is the rainbow effect, but BenQ better copes with this problem. Also, in both projectors, native resolution is 1920x1080.
