There are lots of reasons to like the ViewSonic PJD7828HDL in addition to it’s affordable price tag under $600. Let’s go over the top 5 here…
1. The ViewSonic DLP Projector has Great Sound
Most projectors (especially the budget-priced models), give little though to the speakers. Actually it makes sense, since many people either connect the projector to external speakers or watch movies in a small room where loud noise is not needed.
That said, the ViewSonic features a built-in enlarged speaker chamber and a more powerful amplifier. You can get a full 20Hz – 20Khz sound range from the 10-watt speaker. It’s a worthwhile advantage for people who don’t want to worry about hooking up speakers and who want that extra boost of sound.
2. You Get Great Picture Quality
This ViewSonic LightStream has a full HD 1920×1080 (1080p) native resolution. This means you get a sharp, clear picture good for watching all sorts of HD entertainment (ie video games, sports, movies, etc..).
The projector also has a super-bright 3200 lumens. Get clearer, crisper images and be able to watch movies any time of day – even if there is ambient light in the room.
These days, many home theater projectors come with this feature. However, some lower-priced models skimp on the brightness factor, so you want to check.
ViewSonic also uses SuperColor Technology, which is best in its class for color accuracy. The color is true-to-life and projects in both light and dark environments. This color technology combined with exceptional brightness and you’ve got a winning combination.
3. This Projector has a Hidden Compartment!
Who doesn’t love a hidden compartment? This one contains an integrated MHL/HDMI port that lets you discreetly stream multimedia content from a wireless dongle. You can alternatively use an HDMI cable to connect to other electronic devices.
Furthermore, an integrated Micro USB cable powers Micro USB-enabled devices for you. The hidden compartment makes this machine look ultra-sleek, which is extra nice when you have your projector set up where you can see it.
4. The ViewSonic is Easier to Mount
Some people don’t look at this factor when purchasing. However, I think this gives the ViewSonic a big advantage over other models.
It simply offers greater flexibility as to where you can mount it because it has a wider optical zoom (1.3x). You aren’t confined to the installation limits that you would be with a traditional 1.2x optical zoom.
5. It has Dual 3D Blu-ray Ready HDMI Inputs
Connect any HDMI-enabled device with ease. Watch 3D movies from a Blu-ray player (3D glasses required).
There are definitely differences that make the ViewSonic LightSream line stand out from other projectors. This video visually explains and provides details.
