Optoma HD80 - Pros & Cons

handles its task quickly and efficiently
very good and shadow areas opened nicely
the projector performed quite well
colours seem very smoothly and naturally blended
connectivity is quite impressive
The remote control is unusually well thought out and comfortable
'Overscan' button on the remote is great
Excellent performance in contrast
black level
sharpness
The remote control is easy to use and has good range
it is easy to access

skin-tones in your pics a little saturated
front projector is a bit convoluted
the lens is recessed it can probably be left as is
It becomes a bit of a trade off
the focus tab is a bit stiff
expense of blacks and contrast levels
scaling noise is hard to spot
LCD rivals trailing
vibrant
colours sometimes look fractionally unnatural in tone
annoyingly fiddly height-adjustment legs
the level of optical zoom the HD80 provides is a bit limited
semi-glossy white exterior and extravagant curves
the picture tends to look slightly short of brightness
build quality seems a little flimsy -
long throw distance
rigid placement and the huge vertical offset
It does not have anywhere near the installation flexibility of its competitors
audible noise is low to moderate in volume
the color wheel had a heavy film residue on
This Projector is really not meant for small room installation
DLP suddenly takes the price lead
edge masking will cause a black frame to encroach on the projected image
ALL PROJECTORS even of the same model will have the same characteristics

Optoma HD80 DLP Projector Review

3.0

The Optoma HD80 is a leaner, trimmer, HD81, without the outboard processing, but with plenty of performance and inputs to make a home cinema enthusiast ecstatic to nab a 1080p DLP for under $3000.
