NEC DPL/XGA 1100 ANSI LUMENS 2.1 POUNDS PROJECTOR (NEC-LT10)

• Reviewed by: JPD717

  Strengths: Small, lightweight, easy to use

  Weaknesses: Brightness

  Overall: I've been looking for a small, portable projector that would fit in my laptop case for the last several months. However, I didn't want to pay $2200! I chose the NEC LT10 over some of the other two pounders because of the price (NEC was offering a $200 rebate) and I've always heard NEC makes top quality products. I've used this projector three different times and I have to say that I'm very pleased. It's very easy to use and extremely light. The only downside is the lumens...I wish it was a little brighter, but it's perfect if you're looking for a small, portable projector. I recently hooked it up to my DVD player at home to watch "Finding NEMO" with my kids. The colors were bright and the picture looked awesome. I'm very satisfied! JPD

  Strengths: Really small, easy to use

  Weaknesses: Not bright enough, poor color

  Overall: I got to use one for a couple of meetings recently. When it comes to size, this projector is great, but it just isn't bright enough. On a small screen (under 6 feet), even with half the florescents off, the NEC came up washed out. But the real problem were the colors, reds were dark and my bright yellows definitely came out yellow green. I was able to correct the color by switching color modes, but then the projector became even dimmer, and it became more of a "lights off" projector. Sometimes small isn't always that good. I've had better luck with LCD projectors, in terms of color and brightness, but none are near this small.
