The bad first. Out of the box the remote was not working and the amazon prime app would not update. It was forcing me to click on "update now" with no option to bypass it. Therefore no amazon prime, but netflix worked. There was serious lag on other functions. I returned it for a replacement. The replacement, out of the box, I had problems with the remote. The only thing that worked on the remote was the button that turns on the unit, so in reality the remote control from the one I returned worked better. And still, the amazon prime video calls for an update, yet will not update and I get a message that it is not compatible. I contacted support and I could not provide a product number or name since there is not one on the box or the unit. I have since researched it and it appears that the model number is DH- A10. The good: I did not return this because, besides for the remote control not working and not being able to use amazon prime video in the app or the browser (not compatible with the device), I can go into "settings" using a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard and flip the screen or other things I would normally do with the remote. The sound on this projector is phenomenal. It comes with 2 10watt speakers which are the best speakers I have ever heard. I normally have to have closed caption on when watching my lame tv, but not with this. The sound is so crystal clear and loud that it is amazing. For the sound quality alone, it makes it worth keeping. I can also go into one of the apps and with such ease I was able to simply type in my main computers logon name and password and I had access to everything, music, photos, videos, etc. and so I can watch videos I have downloaded just like that. I can also watch my netflix. I can listen to music and hear it from anywhere in my house, and my house is fairly large. The picture is really good. I can watch it with the lights on. It looks better with the lights off, but in the day time if I kill the lights in the room but light is coming in from the windows and other rooms the picture is still clear and perfect. I can hear the fan if not watching a video but if I am watching or listening to anything with sound it drowns out the fan and I cant hear it at all. I would say the fan is pretty quiet. I cant download every app since not all apps are compatible, but it does seem to have a great deal of functionality. If you want a projector for watching movies then this one is a good one with the exception of the remote not working and not being able to watch amazon prime. I use my wireless logitech mouse and keyboard, and also my ipod to control everything so I can live without the remote. The main reason I did not send this back due to the remote not working is because it comes with both wireless and wired internet connection. I am using it wirelessly but I like having the option to use it with a wired internet connection and it comes with the lan connection. It also has 2 usb ports, which I use one of them to plug in my wireless mouse and keyboard to. It also has an amazing reception when it comes to picking up bluetooth and wireless signals. I swear it must be picking up peoples signals from the entire city. I do not see that many signals on my tv, but with this I see dozens. The price at the time I got this was $224, much cheaper than similar projectors that came with inferior speakers and no lan connection and less lumins. all in all I would buy it again even knowing the remote does not work and amazon prime doesnt work. The picture quality and the sound quality, along with the other features make it a good buy.
