With the development of projection technology, more and more projector products appear, and everyone begins to struggle with whether to buy a projector or a large-screen TV. Everyone's needs are different, and the results are different. Below, I will give you some specific purchase suggestions.
(The Baidu index of "home projector" shows that more and more people are beginning to pay attention to home projectors)
1, the projector only buy smart projector
It is recommended that you only consider smart projectors and do not buy traditional projectors.
Don't buy a traditional projector
As we all know, most of the traditional projectors use traditional bulb light sources, brightness and picture quality are relatively better, but the price is higher, but the life is short, only has the function of projection, to watch the film, but also to connect the set-top box, computer, etc., the operation is complicated.
The smart projector uses an LED light source, the brightness is lower than the traditional projector, but the built-in Android system is a projector with a box function, without external other equipment, it can be used on, and the life can reach 30,000 hours.
Now the intelligent projection factory also has its own picture quality technology, like the first in the market in recent years, jimi, there is a set of self-developed X-VUE2.0 picture quality engine technology, while having the ability of self-developed optical machine, so that the DLP principle of intelligent projector picture quality level and color gamut coverage can be comparable to OLED TV.
For traditional projectors, which require additional computers, various debugging, and various wiring to be used normally, if you are not a professional enthusiast, there is no need to pursue picture quality! I'm sure that after a few uses, most people will put this troublesome thing on the shelf. It is better to take a second place and buy a more convenient and practical smart projector.
We don't have to find something for ourselves, right?
2, into the main topic, for smart projectors and TVs, how should we choose?
There are several factors to consider:
(1) Whether to consider the viewing of movies by the elderly
If you need to consider the viewing problem of the elderly when purchasing, or if you have a family member whose eyes are not good and cannot see the weak brightness of the projector, it is recommended to buy a TV. Because of the same price point, the brightness and clarity of the projector cannot be compared with the TV. In addition, if you use a projector in the living room during the day, you may also need to pull the curtains, and the elderly may not be adapted.
(2) In the living room or bedroom?
If you put it in the living room, you can use a projector and a TV. The selection criterion for the living room projector is that the higher the brightness, the better. Because of the different principles of luminescence, the brightness, color, clarity, and dark details of the TV set will have better performance, but the projector at the same price point needs to pull the curtains of the living room tightly (and there must be curtains with a blackout effect), and then turn off the lights in the living room to see more clearly.
If it is placed in the bedroom, the projector is recommended.
Reason one: does not take up space, flexible use
Reason two: the big screen is much cooler than the TV
Reason three: lying on the bed to watch the large-screen projector, the overall viewing experience, who sees who knows
(3) Is there a suitable wall? Or is it convenient to install the curtain?
Whether you buy a TV or a projector, see if there is a suitable space. TV opportunities take up more space, and projectors just need white walls. If you want to see the effect better, you can also add a curtain. Therefore, it is also necessary to consider the installation location and usage of the curtain.
If you add a curtain, it is recommended to put it away when you are not in use, and then pull it down when you use it. Compared with television, space is more fully utilized.
(4) Whether to pursue picture quality
If you are pursuing image quality, pursuing brightness, color and clarity, tv sets are recommended.
If you don't have a particularly strong pursuit of image quality, just want to see clearly, recommend a projector.
(5) Whether to pursue a large screen
One of the characteristics of the projector is that the screen is large. TVs to 65 inches are already a standard large size, but projectors can easily achieve 100 inches or even larger. Take the extreme meter projector, 1.2:1 projection ratio, projection distance of 2.6 meters, you can achieve 100 inches of effect, entry-level pole meter NEWZ6X less than three thousand yuan price, compared to the same size of the TV, 75 inches TV, has gone to more than 8,000.
So, if you want to see a big screen, choose a projector!
(6) Whether the gamer is playing
If you are a deep gamer and usually pick up the TV to play games, the tv screen may be more suitable for you.
But if you're just playing some simple casual games, or games that don't require image imaging, the projector's large screen may be more suitable for you. Now the intelligent projection has been more and more equipped with game mode, in terms of latency, picture quality has been optimized to varying degrees.
(7) How much the budget is
The budget depends mainly on the individual. What can be provided is a reference for the products currently on the market.
Projector Price:
Portable below 3,000 yuan is convenient and simple to watch videos
Four or five thousand is ordinary household grade, brightness color performance is better
More than 10,000 yuan of laser TV, brightness lumens are very good.
TV Price:
At present, the mainstream size is 55 inches, the visual distance is between 2.8m and 4m, and the price ranges from 2899 to 10999 yuan.
If the visual distance is between 3.5m and 4.5m, consider 65 inches to 75 inches, and the price ranges from 4999 to 25999 yuan.
3. Projector purchase suggestions
If after the comparison, you are more inclined to buy a projector, the following 5 key points, it is recommended that you focus on the comparison.
(1) Resolution and brightness
The size of the chip determines the resolution, and looking at the chip size of the product, you will know what the real resolution is.
0.47DMD chip, with 2.07 million micromirrors, can throw 1920x 1080 pixels, is true 1080P;
0.33DMD chip, with 920,000 micromirrors, can throw 1280x 720 pixels, but can simulate 1080P through pixel dithering, which is quasi-1080P.
The larger the chip size, the greater the resolution.
For brightness, look for ANSI lumens.
ANSI lumens: Indicates the brightness of the light projected by the projector.
Light source lumens: The brightness of the light machine inside the projector.
After the brightness of the light source is projected internally, the actual light brightness of the projection will be much lower than that of the light source lumens.
If the merchant labels the lumens of the light source, the lumens of the light source are multiplied by 35% to 40%, which can be initially converted into ANSI lumens.
(2) Projection ratio
The projection ratio is important, it depends on the size of the picture you project. First of all, you need to know the specific location of your home that is suitable for projection, and the farthest distance you can place the projection. Choose the right projector based on the actual distance and projection ratio.
In general, the smaller the projection ratio, the better. For example, a 1.2:1 projection ratio is better than a 1.4:1 projection ratio, indicating that the picture projected in the same position is larger than that projected by 1.2:1.
(3) CPU and wifi parameters
CPU and wifi parameters will affect the fluency of projection playback. If the system configuration is relatively low, it is easy to caton, if the wifi technology is not good, in the case of slightly worse wifi at home, there will also be a situation where the caton connection is not available.
At present, the system parameters of the home projector reach 8 core CPU, 2GDDR3, WIFI technology support 2.4G and 5G dual-band WIFI, which is already very smooth.
At a time when Wi-Fi 6 has been gradually adapted, there are no projection products on the market that support this function, and it can be seen and wait.
(4) Trapezoidal correction function
To pay attention to whether the projector has a trapezoidal correction function, it is best to support vertical and horizontal keystone correction, that is, it can be cast sideways. If you have an integrated bracket, you don't need to connect another bracket. It will be more convenient to use. Trapezoidal correction function on the market is the best is the pole meter, to measure the quality of this function should be from the speed, accuracy of the two aspects to decide, the pole meter from the first full automatic trapezoid correction, and then to add intelligent obstacle avoidance, automatic screen function, really in the "free user hands" problem up and down.
(5) Autofocus
Manual focus is a very anti-human thing. I believe that people who have used traditional projectors have been tortured by manual focus. Now many smart projectors can achieve autofocus to ensure that the picture is clear in real time.
In summary, whether it is to buy a TV or buy a projection, you have to decide according to your own needs, if you choose to buy projection, then obviously the smart projector is more suitable for the current family preferred type, smart projection purchase needs to pay attention to the brightness, chip, function and other aspects of the knowledge, need to be carefully distinguished before purchasing.
