Reviews of the Optoma HD81-LV

    CNET Review

    August 21, 2007

    The Good: Accurate color decoding for both SD and HD sources, very good video processing with included external processor; more connectivity than nearly all competing projectors.

    The Bad: Poor gamma and grayscale tracking at high light output settings; very little flexibility for setup and installation; no vertical lens shift.

    The Bottom Line: Although a good performer if you use it with a relatively small screen, the Optoma HD81-LV 1080p DLP projector is overly complex and difficult to set up and install.
