Isn't 2k not much more than 1080 full HD?!! So premium for hdr I guess....

Great price for this £2k projector. I can’t bring myself to spend so much with the promise of affordable 4K laser projectors feeling like it is on the horizon, but then I said that last year and they haven’t come down much. Looking at the TW6700 for £800 as an interim upgrade instead

£289 for this projector? wow anyone who got one got an amazing deal. I paid £479.00 a year ago and still think it was great value. Only one annoyance with this projector is it beeps every time you turn it off which if watching late night may annoy other people in the house, couldn't find any option to disable this so used a pillow to cover the noise when turning off which is pretty lame.

You're right, but the point was, (re your notion about "on the road use") this unit has no audio output. At all. So you need to split HDMI, or get audio at source, or god knows what. You can't just push audio to phono/speakers/aux, there's nothing. It's a total ballache. I'm really annoyed I didn't buy it, but I'm still unbelievably irritated by this missing feature. Personally, I just wanted a big picture and I'm happy with my 2.1 logitech kit and doing it on a budget, but there's no good way unless I do audio out from a PC, which then negates me using a chromecast or shield with the projector - and everything was going to go through those two, honestly. If I wanted to go Full Buff, then yes I would be dropping a couple of k but I don't and I'm not. Horses for courses.

Much better in all respects including quieter. It doesn't turn into a turbine when you flip it into ceiling mode, either. Note: it's 5600 not 6500. It *was* on special at richer sounds, 499, probably not anymore.

I have an issue with the video size of this TW650 being too big compared to my previous projector too. I also find the fan in this one to be way too loud. How does the TW6500 compare with fan noise? I might just return this one and continue using my BenQ 720p projector...

Just got mine and appears I can't get the image small enough for my screen, i.e. my projector is too far away, i.e. I didn't look at the throw calculator. Bit annoying as I have built a shelf for the purpose, the predecessor obviously was ok with it. Yes I could mount it closer but it'd look ugly and involves some decorating work I'd prefer to avoid. Any one got any top-of-the-head suggestions for a similar price range projector that can throw a small image a long way? It's nearly 5m distance, the screen is 92". Edit went with a TW5600, perfect.

Inkjet - no thanks!

I’ve had this for a few months, and its predecessor (7620) for 3 years before that. Print quality has always been good and we use it to print our yearly photo calendars. Never seen any stripes or lines. Worth trying different (glossy) paper?

I got one of these. It's ok and very handy if you want to do A3 or large scans but the image quality is not great, or should I say I've never been able to optimise it to not get lines on photos. Ink is a bit expensive if you use it a lot too. Having said that it's worth the price over printer that don't have the features this does. Perhaps I'm used to business printers that you won't get for anywhere near this price :-) used some great Wax printers.

Yes this projector's good. I bought this to replace the Epson EH-TW650 (slighter cheaper model). The colours are more vibrant and seems to have some technology for keeping the image sharp and smooth, picture clarity is very good. Not played around with all the options but there is a lot of tech on it like connecting phones, 3D and I think (not confirmed yet) picture and picture etc. I like the lens shift option which actually moves the lens so rather than being having to move the projector lower or higher you can just turn a wheel with the same effect. I've owned six projectors now, anyone who doesn't like the DLP rainbow effect this is the way to go, I returned both DLP projectors I've owned for not being able to sit through even a half hour program without a headache, there simply isn't any of that on these with the 3LCD and I can watch for hours.

It's very good nice and bright and works well for gaming using the correct mode. The speaker isn't the best but just add a soundbar but to be honest not many built in projector speakers are great.

How is the picture of this?

Perhaps a bit unfair as they were probably misprices but there was a few of the Benq TK800 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B079SLW49D/ going for £500-£600 on Amazon Warehouse and non misprice example, the Viewsonic PX747-4K is on a pre-black friday deal at £799, with Amazon's new pay monthly option available too: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B079MQD2TL/ With 4K projectors getting this cheap I don't see much justification for spending £500+ on a 1080P model, guess others may be thinking the same?

I have 1 its a great projector used it in the garden over summer paid same price back then.

Yeah I grabbed a 106" fixed frame from Silver Ticket in America, worked out cheaper than getting from the UK even after shipping and import fees. Was the biggest I could fit between ceiling beams in the cabin sadly.

right yeah, hadn't considered screen size was a factor lol. mine's 115", so i guess the M550 has smaller borders. at least you have a screen with black borders, mine are sometimes very obvious going straight onto a wall.

I'm running a 106" screen and I'd say it's pushing 2" top/bottom and 3" at sides

yes, and what's really annoying about it is that the bigger XPR chip projectors aren't supposed to have it so i'm really not sure why it's there... i got used to it, but it's not ideal. how big is the border on yours? mine's 2" top and bottom, 1" left and right.

Do you also get the border around the image? I picked up the TK-800 the other day for a bargain price of £625 from the Amazon Warehouse. Absolutely stomps over my old Optoma HR29Darbee

This is how printers should be. Pay more for the printer & cheap inks, not cheap printers & ink costing more that its weight in gold

I've had an Ecotank for a few years now and really hammered it (nearly 7,000 colour pages!). One good thing is that you don't have to buy a whole set of inks, you can just buy whichever colour is running low at the time. I've stuck to buying real Epson inks as the compatables aren't much cheaper. As others have said a quick head clean and off it goes again and as you've got the bulk ink you're not worried about the cartridges all being used up.

Same, the last three printers I've had have always broke before those packs of compatable ink from Amazon even get used up

I've been using the et-2550 for two years regularly and only had to top up the black once. occasionally there are some issues but nothing that a heading cleaning doesn't fix. I recommend. There's also the feeling satisfaction from not having to shell out for overpriced cartridges, you can't put a price on that.

Best price for a set of ecotank 664 bottles on eBay seems to be about £29.50 at the moment...not sure how many pages this makes

EFF is on the case in America, they could face a class action in e.g. Texas for misleading, anticompetitive practices. The EU should be on their case too.

I bought a Canon TS5050 on amazon yesterday for this very reason.

Also amazons idea of "prime" one day delivery is interesting. In stock but won't arrive until Tuesday... pity it's a good deal for the 830, camel has it normally retailing for ~£105

You might want to consider this before buying Epson, unless you're happy paying a fortune for their ink. Epson is teaching the internet not to install security updates

Thanks arrived ok and working well.

Oops, sorry :(

I use Linux, so it's been a while since I saw it. If my memory serves me right, the printer driver installation for Windows has a step where it asks if you would like to check for firmware updates and apply it on the printer. Say no to that XD

I can't see the 352 listed as being compatible ?

I ain’t used it for yonks :~\ I’ll call them tomorrow
