CNET Review
The Good: Accurate color decoding; solid connectivity; well-rounded feature package with horizontal and vertical lens shift.
The Bad: Inaccurate primary colors bring down the overall color fidelity; not very bright.
The Bottom Line: Sanyo's affordable 1080p front projector has its share of flaws, but still represents a good value in its category.
