GizmoMaltese Why assume that all rooms have to be dark? Many new projectors are made to work in non-dark rooms will limited light, such as my living room where it’s all white, dumbass. Look at this guys projector room setup: kzitem.info/news/bejne/w52rzZutp6J6dII The Higher the lumens the better the projector will work in rooms which aren’t dungeons. So don’t blame the manufacturers because they obviously know what they’re doing, and the fact that you guys think that you have to have a dark ass room just to watch and Projector shows her stupid you are and how old you are living in the past

I recently aquired the UHD51ALV this was my first projector I wanted existing 3D with entry 4k. I had wanted a 4k UST but the prices just are a bit too high. One concern is with the huge shift in display technologies and larger sizes of the OLED tvs projectors will likely get retired in the near distant future. But for now I'm enjoying this Optoma having weighed the options after comparing spec and using this sites earlier review. THANK YOU

It's Faux-K not 4k. It's extremely high input lag is due to pixel shift technology that will give the appearance of enough pixels to be 4k, also while not being native 4k (4096x2160). Projector Central states it perfectly in their True 4k vs. Faux-K page; "Then Texas Instruments released an 0.66" 4K UHD chip with a physical mirror matrix of 2716 x 1528 which uses two-phase pixel shifting to create 8.3 million pixels, which is 4K UHD. They followed that with an 0.47" DLP 4K UHD chip which has a physical mirror matrix of 1920 x 1080. It uses four-phase pixel shifting to create 8.3 million pixels." I'm just glad the page exists because it saved my fingers from a lot of typing. True and real 4k is truly a sight to behold when paired with a good screen and having room light control. Good luck with your search.

@@scotttild Sony has a True native 4k that is $4999 and JVC starts at $5999. This holiday season Sony took it down to $4499. So Vava is a waste in my opinion. Laser vs. metal halide; I'd go with metal halide every time.

@Dreamstate I'm sorry to see you're so misinformed with projector technology. Brightness, colors, and picture quality are all valid reasons to find the right projector; it's not a gimmick or even "fake news." The panel used in this projector is not on the same level as just one of the three used in the Sony intro 4k projector. Each panel displays native 4096x2096 at 8.8 million pixels for a total of 26.4 million pixels; this far out weighs the Vava using one 1920×1080 panel at 2.07 million pixels, shifting the image 4 times to create a 3840×2160 image at 8.3 million; hence the input lag and very different quality of image. Lasers and UST are not gimmicks either, which have nothing to do with each other. Ultra Short Throw is great for smaller rooms that have a large wall but not enough distance. Lasers are great but don't have replacement parts, when they get dim, you need a new projector. This is why I prefer a metal halide over laser or even led because you can replace the lamp whenever the picture dims. The main components are the image panels and lens structure and superior technology isn't a gimmick, just better research and development that delivers better results. Each manufacturer has its own pros and cons based on their specialty. Do plenty of research. The next step after getting the projector you want is a good screen for the type of room and ambient lighting (if any). Do your research and focus on specifications versus marketing materials. Projector Central is a great online resource that does great reviews and breaks down the technical specifications.

I have the Xiaomi Wemax Pro and I couldn't teach my Harmony Hub to manually add it. Plus, as Chris stated, the colors don't pop and the lag is over 100 ms. Also, my unit didn't come with 3D capabilities as advertised. I didn't learn until after I bought it that the international versions don't have that feature. I will definitely sell this projector and upgrade to a new one when a gaming 4k UST projector comes on the market.

After doing my own research I bought the Xiaomi Mi 4K TV UST projector, its got the same kinda base structure like the vava version but costed less or 1700 (1844 w/ s/h) on Black friday. Its louder as its smaller and less noise insulated than the vava version, has less brightness but still good for the price, beside you can buy screens that utilize the brightness better later, I dont recommend it for those that like minimal noise but I'll most likely use this one for the next 4-6 years and then buy a 8k UST next.

It’s very heavy to say the least...it’s like it was made of bricks. Solid construction. Smells good right out of the box. Not that noisy... my Epson was the same in noisiness. Bright picture NO DOUBT...and that’s accurate marketing from VAVA.... had it on for possibly 5 hours with my fire stick...no issues. Remote is easy to use. Menus are easy. Very much like an Apple Product. I am not sold easily when it comes to projectors especially with all these USTs coming out of China...like Xiaomi and Fengmi and Wemax...which I think VAVA is riding their coat tails on this bad ass technology. But I don’t read Chinese symbols so I went with VAVA and to be honest, the projector is Solid, heavy AF, and I drive a Chevy Silverado... and it FEELS like a US product. I’m glad I went with this projector... I had my concerns and $2799 investment was a leap of faith. I was so nervous making this purchase but I’m glad I did.

Chris, GREAT video with loads of info, it has really moved me closer to buying the VAVA, Optoma, or the LG however I've read most short throws benefit from an Ambient Light Rejecting (ALR) screen as opposed to a normal elite screens motorized drop down screen. The projector is for my basement with minimal sunlight, I do prefer a brighter screen, better clarity, and quick motion for sports. Did you test with an ALR screen? Have you tried these projectors without an ALR screen? Are they still worth it with just a standard screen? Any thoughts are highly appreciated.
