The projector is perfectly adequate for home use. Together with a Blu-Ray player, it delivers a very good picture in color and sharpness via HDMI. The contrast and black level could be improved. The automatic iris is too loud and rattles. The projector is also a little too loud for quiet scenes, but still bearable. The brightness is great in bright rooms. It could even be darker in a dark movie theater room. You often get the feeling that the picture is too bright. Nevertheless, a super device overall.
