ViewSonic 3600 Lumens SVGA High Brightness Projector for Home and Office with HDMI Vertical Keystone and 1080p Support (PA503S)

Comment

This is a great projector. I bought it to replace my old projector when the bulb finally burned out (a fact of life with all projectors). Rather than spending $95 and an afternoon aligning the bulb in the old projector, I just got this one. I use it for presentations because its much more portable than a gigant-o-screen Tee Vee. It has just one flaw. If you connect with an HDMI cable, it pipes the sound through the speakers in the projector. The volume was extremely low, even when cranked all the way up on both the computer and projector, and it was very tinny. Cmon guys, cant you put better sound in there for $300? I still have to use the VGA cables and haul around external speakers for my presentations. By the way, if you are getting this projector portability, you *MUST* buy the PJ-CASE-008 carrying case. Youll be sorry if you dont.

I decided to trade my 300 lumen pico projector for this one, and the difference is night and day! Obviously not as portable, but the image is so much better! I had no trouble setting it up and am using it with a FireTV stick plugged in the HDMI port. This is the perfect combination. The projector is very bright, and the high definition picture is a real treat. I barely hear the fan noise (I actually dont notice it when watching movies). Note that since the FireTV connects to my surround sound system via bluetooth, I didnt get a chance to test the speaker on the projector. I am so glad I traded portability for image quality given that the projector doesnt rever leave my media room. The projector is about 14 feet from the screen and fills it completely. Overall, a complete upgrade for less than 500$. Well worth it!

I ordered this budget model projector to use for outdoor movies and opted for the SVGA model. For the price point and the 3000+ lumens you cant beat this unit. I set it up on the recent full moon evening and was concerned that the ambient light might drown out the projector....but no problems. The unit is more than bright enough. I plugged in an Amazon Fire TV stick and was up and streaming movies with no problem. It has a micro-usb port so the stick plugged right in. The built in speaker is adequate on full volume but I bought a pair of Bose Companion 2 computer speakers and I only need about 20% volume to have nice sound (without bothering the neighbors).

Im still in awe that this projector was priced at the point where it was. Since buying a 120" outdoor HD screen Ive been searching for the right projector. After reading professional and consumer reviews I decided that this would be that projector and I couldnt be happier. The brightness is strong enough that I can use it, under our magnolia tree, during the day and the picture is crisp. Dont even get me started about using it at night. Its an amazing picture. I plug my Amazon Fire Stick into the HDMI port and away you go! (Be sure that you have a good wifi signal where you set up the projector.) The sound issue was simple; I have a decent computer speaker system that I dont use any more. It has a subwoofer and 2 normal speakers. I just plugged that into the sound out port and TaDa! It was almost like surround sound. A couple of additional point: If you have a mini-usb cord for your phone you can actually use this project to watch videos from that source. All in all, I couldnt be happier with this purchase. (Oh, and my friends are ecstatic, too.) Football season just took on a new life!

This is fantastic and I used it at chistmas for out door Christmas movies. People drive by and would watch. I even had my neighbors come with their lsen chairs to watch a Christmas movie! It was crisp and clear and super easy to use. I plugged it into another speaker full full sound. It was a huge hit! Cant wait to have a movie night this summer with our neighbors. I wish it had a lense protector though. I kept the box, and store it in there. Honestly big bang for your dollar! I bought a grey see through type of screen, but a white sheet will work too. The remoted is easy to navigate. It took me 10 minutes to set up. Ran movies off my cell phone, then my lap top. It does not have a port for flash drives. No USB which is another little ding. But not enough to give it 4 stars. You have 1 HDMI port, 1 VGA port, 1 AUX port, and 1 for a micro USB, which nothing I had fit into it. You can use it for business, indoor/outdoor movies, or decorating. Game night in your garage for the guys! It offers rear projection too.

This thing is awesome! I bought an Epson unit from Best Buy for $299 due to the high praise as a business projector suitable for PPT presentations, except that it stunk! Blurry images, hard to read text and washed out colors. So I shopped around and tried to find the next best deal - and this is IT! For just $30 more I have crystal clear images, sharp text and bright colors. PLUS this one has an audio output for connecting your own speakers (backyard movie night here we come!). I am EXTREMELY pleased with this unit!!

If your needing a good projector for power point presentations, this is a good choice. It has a bright lamp and a nice clear picture. It has a 3300 lumen lamp which is pretty good for $300.00 dollars! If your looking for a 1080p projector, youll need to look elsewhere and pay a lot more.

Install Flash Player First of all, I am a real buyer and not some professional buyer that is getting paid to give an item 5 stars. THE PROS- The projector is clear. You can even see it fairly well with the lights on/daytime. The cooling fan for the projector is quiet and it doesnt get that hot at all. Lots of things inside the menu that you can adjust. THE CONS- I first bought a cheap projector($79) in the beginning and it projects BIGGER in shorter distance than this VIEWSONIC. I was disappointed how it did NOT project that big. The color is a little bit off, not true to the original picture that is coming from(dvd, iPad, etc.). The sound is NOT loud at all. Youll need to hook up an external speaker. FINAL RATING: Clear picture, needs lots of room/ distance to make the picture bigger, color is off no matter how you adjust it. Over all, its a decent projector.This is my second week of owning it. Hopefully it will last a long time.

I bought this to watch outdoor movies and sports events on a big screen. The picture is great. I plug in a JBL Bluetooth speaker in with a small cable for extended loud sound and off we go. It will accept anything you plug into it (computer, HDMI, blue ray, video games, you name it). Just plug and go. We watched a kids movie in the basement the other night during a strong thunderstorm, the grandkids never knew it was storming. Indoor/Outdoor, this machine will be used a lot!

We recently covered our porch and had an old projector so we got the idea to use it on the porch.. set it up and while it did good it was only a 1200 lumen so the picture would get washed out even with just turning the lights on.. seeing it with any daylight was 100% impossible! Started looking for a new unit that would be brighter but didn’t want to spend a ton since it is outside (although covered). Purchased this one and it is unbelievable.. the picture while not true HD is hard to tell the difference and it looks great!! The brightness is awesome as well.. I’m literally sitting here at 3:00 in the afternoon on a sunny day watching it.. now is it washed out some? Sure but you can see it which is truly unbelievable.. once it gets 5:30-6:00 there is no issues at all! Great projector don’t hesitate to buy!!
