Acer X1140 SVGA Projector Review

July 30, 2015

Acer launched the line of X1 series projectors more than a half-decade ago, and in that time, we’ve seen a number of capable, durable and low-cost options. The X1 series is primarily Acer’s entry-level, ultra-budget set, with current iterations like the X113PH and X123PH starting at $299 and $399 respectively. The Acer X1140 is now out-of-production. Yet, it shares a lot of commonalities with today’s X1 series projectors, including high contrast, powerful color technology and 3D capabilities. The biggest disadvantage to buying a used X1140 is price. With the similar X113PH starting at $299, it makes sense to buy new. […]

Projector Review: Epson EB-440W – An Ideal Education Projector

June 16, 2015

Released exclusively in the United Kingdom and Europe in 2010, the Epson EB-440W was designed with the classroom in mind. The projector features plenty of plug-and-play features that are useful for teachers like an ultra short-throw range, built-in audio, 2-in-1 USB connectivity, and a lamp that’s bright enough for moderately lit classrooms. That list alone makes it ideal for the classroom. Yet, the biggest drawback is that, as a now five-year-old projector, the EB-440W doesn’t feature the most cutting-edge tools like wireless networking and cloud connectivity. Plus, the EB-440W is a WGXA resolution projector (1280×800) and displays images in the […]

Projector Review: The Epson PowerLite D6250 Multimedia Projector

May 20, 2015

When it was first shipped in 2011, the Epson PowerLite D6250 featured a suite of advanced capabilities, excellent image quality and impressive durability. Now, four years later, a few of those features aren’t considered as advanced as they once were. Still, the PowerLite D6250 is an ideal presentation projector, with great brightness specs and useful networking capabilities. In other words, the PowerLite D6250 has aged well, and it remains a reliable piece of hardware with the right specifications for presentations. Starting at $1,279.99, it’s relatively budget-friendly, and for the features that are included, the price is fairly competitive. If you’re looking for a set-up […]
