ViewSonic PS502X 4000 Lumens XGA Short Throw Projector, High Brightness for Small Meeting Rooms and Living Rooms, Dual HDMI, and USB-A Inputs

Use of my golf sim and it’s great

Performs great and the clarity is not really any less than my buddy with a Benq which is almost 5 times the price.

This is an ‘old school’ type projector with 4:3 aspect ratio not HD 16:9. I bought this particularly for that reason. I project onto essentially a square wall and I wanted complete floor to ceiling, wall to wall coverage for immersive effect. The short throw feature means a bigger picture with fairly close proximity placement to the screen. It’s super bright too. Probably good for watching old TV shows.

Let's start with the good. This is a good projector for many things. I think for basic projection, displays, meetings, lectures, in a controlled environment, very good. This is a very close projector and requires very little distance between it and the screen. You can get a very large display with very little distance and it works well. The picture is clear, focus is excellent and most of the automated features work well. It is bright enough to see even in a room lit by lamps but I wouldn't try it in a sunlit room. The darker the environment the better. There is a wide variety of inputs so you can use almost any video source you like. It is small, reasonably lightweight and compact. All cables can be disconnected so if you got a small storage bag or box, it would be very portable. Now for the bad. The menu is a little difficult to navigate and although you can get to all parts of the menu without the remote control it is not easy. It is a bit noisy, there is a fan that has to run to cool the bulb and that fan is not very quiet. The noise is enough that it can be distracting. The design is such that the projector really works best if it is at the same height as the bottom or top of the screen you are using. If you try to put it more toward the middle top to bottom, you can adjust the picture but it doesn't really work very well. I tried rear projection and it does work but it's not as effective, there tends to be a bright spot in the screen where the projector is located. All in all. I think it's a good value for the money, the picture quality is good for what it is and in most cases for most uses it will get the job done. I would say that for home use where space is limited, it could be a good projector for video but probably not so good for gaming. For use as a display for lectures or presentations, it would be adequate and would give good color and graphics if used with a good screen or white wall.

This is a very budget friendly projector. I am using it for a golf simulator. I would definitely purchase again.

This is probably the worst projector I’ve ever seen. The image quality is terrible—when connected to a computer, the text is unreadable, and video playback is awful with almost no color accuracy. It feels like a cheap, low-quality Chinese projector, and I strongly suspect this is a knockoff. The worst part is I paid $550

I bought it for my golf simulator. The graphics are horrible but the projector works. The color quality was subpar. I would tell everyone to find a different projector

Just recieved my projector, its alittle bulky, I purchased this for my projection pro billiard pool table set up, it works beautifically, illuminates the whole table 9x4.5ft, excellant image quality. Also this projector was vertically mounted over sidepocket

Excelente equipamento. Nossa Igreja amou.

I bought this to project my golf simulator onto a big screen in the garage, and it works like magic. The picture is projected crystal clear onto a screen the size of my garage door. I'm able to feel immersed in the game when I'm playing because the picture is so nice. Super happy with this, would buy again!

I've been using for my golf simulator. Works so good. Very bright. I have it in my garage so I get a far bit of ambient light and no issues

Tudo certo com a compra e com o produto. Compraria novamente.

La courte portée n'est pas assez courte pour 3 X 4. Je regarde pour un autre projecteur pour une ultra courte portée (Ultra short throw) maximum 2 pieds.
