I just bought this today.. It's extremely good, the picture and sound is amazing, but I'm using my home theatre receiver for the sound.. To achieve a 120 inch Screen, you need to be over 10ft away and 13 ft back for 150 inch Screen. The only thing I found is the projector had to be straight in line with the screen and plenty tweakings in the settings. But it's an excellent picture once set up . Only downfall is the power brick that comes with it, similar to a laptop power supply .. If mounting on the ceiling like me, I had to use cable ties to mount it against the projector mount.. Doesn't look too bad.
hows your HDR experience is it as bad as mines (washed out colours, very DIM in appearence (HDR and dolby vision are horrible) so i use 8 bit 4k instead
@@J.C.Productions-gm8zp Yes I'm also using 8 bit 4K I can't complain it's really good dolby vision is OK not much of difference for me but my kids said they definitely liked it. Also it is my first 4k projector from 1080p in my dedicated room. I'm finding HDR Standard is more balanced some movies on Filmmaker mode so I'm finding it varies on what you're watching.
Great review, thanks for going into mounting the projector as well. Most people skim over these details in their reviews, and sometimes it is actually the deciding factor. Instant like and subscribe. Keep it up!
One thing I've noticed about RU-vid TV, is that even though the app isnt built in, you can still cast to the C1 and it pulls up the full app. Everything works except the back button on the remote. You can power the device up by casting to it. Also HDMI CEC works very well. I can power the device on and off with the Siri remote and my XBOX controller. The negatives are the short throw distance (I had a BenQ GV31 that did better. Hell, Ive had Vankyos that threw farther). That combined with no optical zoom, lens shift, oven keystoning can be an issue for some folks. If you can get past that hurdle, the C1 is excellent. Another kind of negative is that some version of the C1 Pro was announced at CES 2024 to be released later this year. Another random thing is that this thing really favors the color red. I mean, anything that's red just pops off the screen. Thanks for your review. Subscribed.
Sorry Cody but how do you make a video and say little to nothing about the video performance of the projector. Your section about video performance talks mostly about the os. No mention about throw distance, focus issues, brightness in non dark rooms. Am kind of disappointed by the lack of real world usable info from you in this video.
Sorry I didn't go into those details. 😒 Honestly I thought it was obvious that I like the look and that focus and keystone adjustment was automatic and worked well when I talked about it in that section along with the B-roll showing it in action. Most projectors can show an image in a lit room but obviously does better when it's dark. I shot some b-roll showing the difference but opted not to show it because I thought it wasn't very much value add. Thanks for the feedback I'll try to incorporate some of these things in future videos. 👍🏾
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Please feel no need to apologize. I very much appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. You are a gentleman and come across as a very humble nice person in your videos. Thank you for accepting my feedback so graciously and please accept my apologies if I came across as harsh. BTW I hope you have continued success as you are a far better reviewer than Shane Lee. Who is a complete narcissist and is someone who obviously hates his viewers and sees himself as some sort of superior figure in the Home Theater Industry.
Nice video! I have a C1S (chinese version) with 3D, no Dolby Vision/Atmos. By the way: wich camera did you use to recorder without a pink effect? Im struggling with that
I definitely enjoy your videos just looking for a little more detail on the picture quality versus any projector you've used in the past or currently using. No worries@@HomeTheaterHobbyist
can you do a video of you hookoing this up to a Video receiver for the dolby Atomos , nobody ever talks about or shows that process, i dont want to skimp out on the sound, i appreciate the fact the device has built in speakers, but i want to show for a room of 40 people
Hi everyone, I'm about to purchase this projector and I would like some advice from you regarding the projection screen. The use will be exclusive for the cinema with a dark room, distance between sofa and cloth approximately 4 metres. Thank you all !!!!
Yep, I currently 150in Home Theater with a 1080P Epson 2250 projector since 2020. Next upgrade to 4k won't be a projector, I'd rather get the Apple Vision Pro. Apple Music
Bonjour Je suis à la recherche d’un système soundbar dolby atmos 360 pour un petit projecteur lazer Pouvez-vous me conseiller sur un système audio ? Merci pour votre aide Salutations Robin
No Hulu. But it has a full built in browser. Holding the arrows on the remote works as a browser. Maybe I will try a keyboard and mouse to see if that works. You can get to RU-vid TV that way but the quality isnt that good.
