Optoma HD50 review

 

The Optoma HD50 produces a bright, punchy picture but does it deliver big-screen thrills?

Punchy, bright picture ; Vibrant colour palette ; Crisp detail ; Compact build

Rivals are more subtle ; Remote control has lag issues ; 3D flickers ; No built-in speakers

It’s not the perfect home cinema experience, but there’s plenty to like about the Optoma’s rich, bright and colourful approach

Optoma HD50 review

 

The astounding Optoma HD50 makes hi-def projection cool again

Razor-sharp 1080- pictures ; No overt DLP rainbow effect ; Plug and play simplicity

3D an optional extra ; No onboard sound system ; At 29dB it's not the quietest

Excellent image accuracy ; Detailed pictures ; Very good motion handling ; Image has plenty of brightness ; Impressive 3D performance ; Lens Shift ; Competitive price
