Hi Guys

EDIT:Got a used Epson which met needs. Thanks

Looking for a projector, ideally under 200$ that is to be kept in a hall playing some photos and videos via USB in loop. Plan is to project on to a white wall with largest size possible if possible at 1080p. Don't need battery or very advanced features/Android etc. Reliability is the key as it has to run for few hours every day for as long as possible.

Would this one from JBHifi for $147 be okay? https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/philips-neopix-110-projec…
or this one from Amazon called HAPPRUN be better? : https://www.amazon.com.au/Projector-Bluetooth-100Screen-Comp…

Or are there any other recommendations? Can go upto $300 if there is a major advantage.

    $200 options

    a hall

    The hall will be pitch black right… right???

      And how wide is this hall? That will dictate how big the projection is.

    To get 1080p under $200 just wait for a 1080p native (make sure its native) to come up on here, they will all be similar at that price point.

    Otherwise, facebook marketplace. Look for one with an easily replaceable bulb.

    WHat is the expected overall size and then work out the Lumens needed - and then start looking at projectors.

      Sounds like too much fuss, can I just have your projector?

    I owned this projector for about 3 hours (before taking it back to the store and getting a higher end model)

    When in quiet mode (ie 1080P non pixel shifting) the projector image is clear, vivid and the projector is nice and quiet.

    When 4K mode is switched on the image is impressive but the XPR module shifting module makes so much noise I could hear it outside my room in the hallway… Now I do have wooden floors so sound carries quite a bit but if your sensitive to buzzing noises be prepared to be irritated.

    Might be they have refined the technology and current versions are not as bad as what I experienced.

    @the1doood - Which Epson project did you buy? And how much you paid for it? Any feedback?
