The Optoma H185X is an all-round projector that can be used during the day, for meetings, home movie use and even in education. It's not really strong enough to be a home projector as the resolution is not 1080p. There are better projectors for just a little more. But you can of course still watch movies. A basic projector with a high brightness of 3700 ANSI lumens which means that you can leave the lights on and blinds open during meetings. 

Just Projectors review on the Optoma H185X: The high contrast ratio of 28,000:1 gives a very basic image so whether it's a spreadsheet, PowerPoint or video presentation there will be no loss of clarity and will make the darker areas more defined, which is great for movies. It is very simple for the H185X projector to connect to a Mac, PC or other device such as tablet or smartphone, as it has both a HDMI and the VGA input so all you need is a cable to hook it up to and it will power up in less than 10 seconds. There is also a USB to power an HDMI dongle, such as Google Chromecast.

The native widescreen resolution (1280 x 800) also makes it perfect for these modern devices as it will not have to stretch the pixels to match their high resolution output, but it can also scale down to a more square 4:3 format without distortion too. It features a long lamp life and subsequently lower costs with replacement lamps being few and far between. It of course has the option to be wireless with an optional wireless adapter making the health and safety hazard of trailing cables along the floor a thing of the past.

About Mobile

We always find there is a fine line with projectors needed for on-the-go presenatations, between having something which is both easily transportable and something which is powerful enough to deliver a decent picture in a big, bright room. The handheld projectors are nowhere near bright enough, and some super bright projectors are quite heavy, but there are a few happy mediums like the ViewSonic PX701HD or the Epson EB-FH52 which offer a very bright HD picture in a relatively small and lightweight form. Of course there could also be times when you need to have the projector really close to the screen but this does have its own pitfalls with regards to screen types they will work with so I definitely recommend giving our sales team if you require this who can help you work out the best solution, you can either call them on 01256882629, start a chat via the button below or send us a message here.

About Just Projectors

We provide advice on the phone listening to your requirements we are able to help you get the right one as we have trained staff . We have a network of installers to cover your area. On higher end models we can arrange a loan or demo. We think most people should buy HD resolution , they are so affordable now and you wouldn't buy a 5 year old laptop so why buy SVGA which is over 20 years old. Yes XGA & WXGA are ideal for simple presentations and education use but we have all been use to decent home TV's or high resolution phones or tablets so why put a huge image on the wall/screen which is inferior. There are some great brands out there like BenQ, ViewSonic, Epson, Sony and less known ones like EIKI or Vivitek. Yes you can buy the wrong one, this is why we still offer advice rather than just an add to cart website. We have a price promise, we see the models, we often put one against another and see which one is best. We only buy UK stock, which has higher warranty standards to ensure you get real value for money. We don't sell the cheap brands as the lumens aren't verified. Look at our name it tells you that we are committed to this product and we have a great reputation in the market place for price and customer service. We supply the UK but also in Ireland, we offer a 1-3 day service to Ireland.
