Top reasons to buy a DLP projector

With their competitive pricing and superior technology, a DLP projector is the best choice on the market. You can expect superior visuals along with easy of use with your DLP purchase.

Learn more about why you should buy DLP projector.

Ultra clear picture

Due to the technology using millions of tiny mirrors reflecting colors, video and graphics are sharper. The mirrors spaced less than a micron apart means there are fewer gaps between pixels so images are smooth with a film-like quality. You won’t see the pixilation effect that is present in LCD projectors. The DLP projector also has sealed optics making them better suited for dusty environments.

 

High resolution

DLP projectors deliver the highest available resolution – over 2 million pixels at 1920 x 1080. This translates into a full HDTV experience with outstanding picture and quality for either work or leisure viewing. With a DLP 1080p Projector you can experience the best HDTV programming, Blu-Ray discs, or video games available.

 

Brilliant Color

DLP projectors have a technological advantage over LCD projectors due to their sophisticated color wheel. DLP retain color accuracy because they simply reflect light onto the screen producing a crisp, clear and brilliant picture. Since there is no color decay or decreased legibility over time, your DLP projector will last for years.

 

Deeper blacks, brilliant whites

DLP Projectors provide a clear, sharp picture due to the high black and white contrasts. Most DLP projectors have contrast ratios of 2000:1—higher than most LCD projectors. Deeper blacks and more brilliant whites mean text is extremely readable—especially important in presentations that are text heavy presented in rooms with ambient light.

 

Portable and connected

DLP are small and compact due to their light engine with a single chip. Many weigh in at three-pounds or less making them very portable—especially important for business travel. They’ve been designed for easy set-up and quick connections to your computer.
