Aspect Ratio:

The ratio between the height and width of the picture.

Audio Output:

A measure of the intensity of sound the projector can produce if there are built-in speakers. Measured in watts or decibels.

Brightness:

The overall brightness of the screen during normal operation. Brighter screens are better for use in lighted areas.

Connections:

Connection ports that allow you to connect other devices such as DVD players, VCRs, gaming platforms and audio systems.

Contrast Ratio:

A measure of the contrast between the brightest white and darkest black the projector can display. Higher ratios provide better pictures, especially in bright environments.

Fan Noise:

A measure of how loud the cooling fan is during normal operation. Measured in decibels.

Image Size:

Physical measurement of the size of the picture displayed. Measured diagonally in inches.

Keystone Correction:

The ability to change the shape of the projected image to adjust for distortion from displaying at an angle.

Lamp life:

Estimated lifespan for the lamp before it must be replaced.

Lamp Type:

The type of lamp used to project the image on a surface.

Lens Aperture:

The size of the diaphragm light passes through. Affects focus and throw distance.

Max H-Sync Rate:

The rate at which the lines of resolution are displayed horizontally. Measured in hertz (cycles per second).

Max Operating Temp:

The maximum temperature that allows the projector to function correctly.

Max V-Sync Rate:

The rate at which the lines of resolution are displayed vertically. Measured in hertz (cycles per second).

Memory Card Slot:

A place where you can insert memory cards to view additional media.

Min Operating Temp:

The minimum temperature that allows the projector to function correctly.

Power Consumption:

A measure of how much electricity the projector consumes during normal use.

Projection distance:

The distance at which the projector can display an image without losing focus or image quality.

Resolution:

The quality of the image determined by how many lines of visual information are packed into the picture. Higher resolution results in sharper pictures.

Response Time:

The amount of time it takes for a pixel to go from black to white to black. Faster response times reduce latency and improve performance. Measured in milliseconds.

Speaker Power:

A measure of the intensity of sound the projector can produce. Measured in watts.

Throw Distance:

The distance at which the projector can display an image without losing focus or image quality.

TV Depth:

The physical depth of the projector. Measured in inches.

TV Height:

The physical height of the projector. Measured in inches.

TV Weight:

The physical weight of the projector. Measured in pounds.

TV Width:

The physical width of the projector. Measured in inches.

Warranty:
