The best gaming projector
With a gaming projector, you play games on the big screen in your living room and fully immerse yourself in the action. Your gaming experience is influenced by the projection format, and by specifications like the resolution and input lag. To make your choice for the best gaming projector easier, we've selected a number of recommendations.
Image quality of the projector
When you choose a projector, image quality is important. This determines how sharp and detailed the image is. Projectors have various resolutions such as 720p, 1080p, and 4K. 720p provides a decent image, but has less detail and sharpness. This works well for smaller screens. 1080p, also known as Full HD, has more pixels and provides a sharper image. This is suitable for larger screens or watching up-close. 4K has 4 times as many pixels as 1080p. This provides a razor-sharp image with a lot of detail. Mainly on large screens, 4K provides an impressive viewing experinece without visible pixels.
Optoma UHD38x: clear image, low input lag
The UHD38 is suitable for gaming, thanks to the input lag of 4.2ms. This means that there's very little delay between the input on the controller and the movement on the screen. You can race past your opponent or quickly set your sights on your enemy during an exciting shooter. Thanks to the 4K resolutions of the Optoma UHD38x, the projector projects razor-sharp images and you won't miss any details.
