I searched the internet and spent month deciding and finally bought this PJ. Well all was fine until 60 days in and 230 hrs on the bulb. Now the picture surges in and out. Panasonic tech support is only in for 6 hrs during the day so if you work like most of America you cant reach anyone. If you want a projector that is reliable I would go with a Viewsonic. have had one for 2 yrs and it has been inside outside and it still works great if only I would have know I would have purchased another. I went for the brightness but it wasnt worth the difference. The picture is fuzzy do to image technology in this unit. If you are looking for a crisp picture you wont find it here. Would not reccomend this unit to anyone.

This is not a review of this specific product just a general opinion. If you read alot of reviews as I do, you will find that there are about 10% you must question. These are the reviews that are the generally negative and in most cases 180% from the other reviews. They almost always tell the prospective buyer to go with some other product which they name. These reviews are likely from people who represent that competing company that simply want to lower the score of the reviewed product in hopes of promoting their own. If you check a product and twenty people say it is great and one person says it was a nightmare beyond belief and then says if you want a great one buy. . . . . . . ? These are the reviews that can be dismiss.

I don’t have too much to add on what other people have said – it’s a great projector. My projector-owning friends compared it quite favorably with the ones they own. . . it just has such bright, crisp images. I was very happy with my purchase.
However – the other day, after about one year and 290 hours of use (I am not a heavy user!), something was clearly wrong with the image. The colors were not saturated, the image was dull. . . brightness was lacking. One more evening of that, and then it wouldn’t start up – the “Lamp” indicator light was flashing. I will be ordering a new lamp, but it’s far from cheap. I’m pretty upset, as I don’t think I did anything in particular to make it die so early.
Hopefully this serves as a cautionary tale for those considering this product.

This is a Great projector for the money. I dont think you will find a better projector with out spending at least $1000 more. I bought this projector after being impressed by my buddies projector. I purchased mine for about the same price and was truly amazed by how much better the Panasonic preformed. The only downside that I can think of is that it didnt have enough HDMI ports. However; this can easily be fixed by getting an HDMI multi switch. Other than that I love it and use it everyday!!

Bought this over a year ago and use it quiet regularly to watch movies on. No complaints, no issue. Operates great, never had any problems. Easy to setup and arrange.
Only the ‘energy saving’ feature sacrifices quality of picture, but what do you expect for less light to the bulb I suppose. . .
