Ask. You probably also ask yourself these questions when reading this review. What will the picture be like? Is the projector really suitable for gaming? Is it comparable to a TV sharp in terms of sharpness? How does it perform in a bright room? Does the projector make a lot of noise?
I can honestly say that I am happy with the choice for this beamer or rather the total cinema/game package that is offered on this site. The image is sharp and clear. Great for connecting to your ps4 and playing movies via netflix. The image is also sufficient during the day to use the beamer.
Is the image as sharp as a new TV of this time? No, not that. The image is tight and sharp, but put a TV next to it and you will see a difference. Not surprising since you can project a 100-inch image for a reasonable price.
I am very pleased with the sound that the beamer makes, I think it hangs 1.5 meters above my head and I don't really hear it when I play a game or a movie.
I can't give an opinion on the speakers of the beamer because I connected it directly to separate speakers & amplifier.
Summary: User-friendly. Picture I give an 8-9 and value for money. Great to play on. Movies great too!
Apart from that, customer service has helped enormously with the choice for this projector, thumbs up!

In our new house we have banned the TV from the living room. The idea was to project onto a smooth plastered wall and then stick a Chromecast into our old (ceiling-mounted) beamer, from where the audio from the HDMI signal was wired to the HiFi set. That only worked poorly with the old beamer: the resolution was disappointing, the fan made a lot of noise and the room had to be darkened before the image became enjoyable.
Bought this HD142x after a long search and comparison. That fits perfectly! sRGB color space for correct reproduction of the colors (an important point for me as a photographer: my photos look beautiful!), whisper-quiet, razor-sharp due to the high resolution... A party!
Via the telephone or laptop we wirelessly stream Netflix, YouTube or TV-on-demand in full HD to the Chromecast that is plugged directly into the HDMI input of the beamer. Darkening is no longer necessary (although the image will be even more beautiful). Unbelievable that this quality is available for this money. Only downside: you have to point the AB at the sensor on the front of the projector for it to work, which is inconvenient if the projector is hanging over your head.

My previous beamer, an ACER H7351D, was a great device, but unfortunately it broke irreparably after moving. Time for a new beamer because once you had one at home and as a film lover you don't want to go back to that "small" 50 inch screen or the expensive and sometimes uncomfortable movie experience in the cinema.
I also learned from my previous beamer that quality can also be found under 1000 euros and that is why my eye fell on this device.
The biggest difference with the ACER is the lower contrast ratio, ie 23000:1 instead of 50000:1, but I didn't notice anything after watching 2 days of intense film.
Thanks to the 3000 lumens, you can even work fine without a darkening watching television but with extra darkening the movie experience is still a lot more pleasant.
I took the 3D option as a nice extra and I didn't have great expectations. Until I tested it with AVATAR 3D..... With this beamer I learned to appreciate 3D viewing all over again. STOP watching 3D on a 50inch ; watch 3D as it should be ... with a beamer.
The 3D function requires an additional purchase of eg Celexon G1000 DLP 3D glasses. The glasses are very comfortable and the extra cost is not immediately to cry about.
IN SHORT: this OPTOMA HD142X is highly recommended!
