I was looking for a replacement bulb for my Sharp XR-10S DLP Projector which we use in our outdoor patio area for movie nights. When looking for a replacement bulb the OEM bulb was $142.00. I had ordered non-OEM bulbs on Amazon for 1/3 of the price just to be disappointed in them only lasting a few months. I started noticing many projectors on Amazon that were below $200 dollars with much more features than my 15-year-old Sharp purchased for $800 in 2006. Features like: HDMI/VGA/USB/SD/AV/TV inputs, Wireless device mirroring, Bluetooth, and built-in speakers. For $50 more than my replacement bulb it was worth checking out. I purchased 3 different projectors until I found a suitable replacement. First lesson learned. If you are trying to compare name brand projectors (Sharp, Epson, Optoma) vs lesser-known manufactured projectors, they are not all using the same way of measuring brightness. My Sharp was 2000 ANSI Lumens which apparently is almost 5 times brighter than a 2000 Lumen or Lux rating the other Asian manufactured projectors are publishing. I found that out when I purchased the TMY 6500 Lumen Projector for $80. It was most likely well below 1000 ANSI Lumens. These might work well for indoor viewing throwing the image less than 5 feet of distance in complete darkness (and no image in daylight) but not for the outdoor setup I have (details below). After that I looked for the highest Lumen/Lux Projectors for about $200. I purchased the Yaber Pro V7 9500 L (L=Lumens not ANSI Lumens) for $200 ($299 with $100 coupon) and the Jifar 5G WiFi Bluetooth Projector with 450" Display,9500 Lumens 4K Projector for $200 ($249 minus $50 coupon). The winner was Jifar. Pros: The Jifar was far brighter, image was much clearer and crisper, and the built-in speakers were louder and clearer than that of the Yaber Pro V7. I hung them one up after another and you could even see the image during the day with my outdoor blinds down (the image was washed out but other projectors you see nothing during the day especially when hung over 10 feet away.) You will need at least that distance for the image to be in focus. The Jifar had VGA which the Yaber did not which was the nail in the coffin for Yaber. Cons: I have to admit that the Yaber Pro V7 had better packaging, higher quality plastic shell, and nicer storage bag/backpack. The Jifar plastic shell seemed to be not as smooth, almost as if 3D printed. I really thought the Yaber was going to be a better projector based on the outside. I was proven wrong. On the Jifar I could only see 3 of the 4 mounting holes and thought I had a defective product. I contacted the manufacturer and they quickly sent me an image of where the 4th hole was which I had mistaken for a screw hole. I contacted the manufacture several times and was impressed with how quickly they responded. A special shout out to Grace Yang and Linda who helped me with my questions and even sent helpful guidance photos. About my set-up. I have a Da-Lite drop-down screen that has an 8’ diagonal viewing area. The Jifar projector is ceiling mounted 10’ 6” away from the screen at a height of 8’8”. At this distance the image was too large for the screen but the projector has a zoom down image feature and fit perfectly on the screen with a setting at 90%. Our seating is directly under the projector. The speakers are loud when they are directly above you. I could hear my son watching cartoons though the Jifar via a fire stick from my office which is about 20 feet away. During movie nights we run the audio via Bluetooth to a Samsung sound bar and subwoofer. It did take me awhile to figure out how to connect it to Bluetooth as I have multiple Bluetooth audio devices and I believe they were competing for the signal. I turned off the Bluetooth setting on all devices except for the sound bar and it then connected automatically. I am glad I took a chance on ordering these different projectors and am glad that I did not disqualify the Jifar solely based on their outer plastic shell. Apparently, they focused on investing in what is on the inside vs a nicer exterior. Goes to show you can’t judge a book by its cover. I highly recommend the Jifar projector giving them 5 stars for them providing the most bang for the buck. Pictures show some of the most visually stunning movies/episodes I could find on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney to show the color and quality that this projector puts out. It also shows my set up.

I initially posted a two-star review of this projector as the unit I received did not have working WiFi and the Bluetooth connection had severe latency issues when used with a Roku Express. The company contacted me rapidly and worked hard to address the problems. They went so far as to ship me a replacement projector which did have working WiFi. The company’s response alone earned them at least a one-star upgrade. So, first the good. The screen brightness and resolution on this projector are excellent. My use case is a portable outdoor theater on our back deck, streaming off gigabit fiber, with the already noted Roku Express plugged into HDMI. While we can’t watch movies in bright sunlight (I wouldn’t expect to) it works well from twilight on (or inside, for that matter). The on-board sound system is nice, and sufficient for most of our movie nights, though at only 6 watts it’s a little soft for some of our elderly friends (hence my trying to enhance the sound) out on the deck. From playing around with it, as long as your source is iOS or Android or a laptop and you don’t need truly loud sound *through a Bluetooth connection* it will work just fine. Even with the Roku Express, it will work nicely. As such, among the low-cost projectors available, I can absolutely attest that this one can work nicely… with one caveat: Unfortunately, the replacement projector also has the severe latency issues with Bluetooth when used in combination with a Roku Express, necessary to stream Amazon or Netflix inside the United States (per the companies listing, Netflix, Disney, and Amazon copyright issues prohibit playing movies directly from the projector). It appears to be impossible to get the audio to sync with movies streamed over the Roku, and while I didn’t test it, I suspect the same will hold true with a Fire Stick. In the end, I bought a speaker that had an AUX jack to address the sound issue and bypass Bluetooth. So, bottom line – This is a solid projector, with one minor flaw that is readily overcome and may not even matter depending on use. Among the low-cost units on the market my personal experience was that this is a good unit and the company provided very good customer service (which earned them the fifth star).

Todo era perfecto y a los 6 meses empezó a salir una mancha en la pantalla, pensé que iría bajando porque dejaba de usarlo un rato, pero al parecer se calienta y vuelve esa mancha tan desagradable, me dijeron que el vendedor puede cambiarlo, si es así tendrá todo mi respeto, espero y se contacte conmigo
