Every projector we test sits in our homes for a minimum of two weeks, ideally much longer.
Our testing process is more than a few movie nights, though.
Pulling a model out the box, we’re immediately clocking weight, footprint, dimensions, and aesthetics.
After this, we take a deeper look at the build quality.
How we test projector features
This is where that value for money really comes into play.
All of this is compared against the different image size options available within our performance checks.
Then we dive into the software.
Within each of these environments we’re constantly checking brightness and clarity, especially within darker moments.
Beyond this initial image quality testing, we’re also particularly interested in latency speeds.
On top of game performance, we test projectors by their streaming performance across HDR and SDR content.
Where available this is mostly through Netflix original shows.
We score projectors across six categories with results sitting on a five-point scale.
