Optoma MovieTime DV10 – Pros, Cons

Posted on October 16, 2013 By Art Feierman

Pros

Great image quality for an entry level projector
True 16:9 Aspect ratio (unlike HP’s all-in-one)
Unique “all-in-one” portability
Decent built in sound from 2 5 watt speakers
Optional small subwoofer
DVD player built in
A easy to learn remote
Friendly easy to understand menus
Easy to hook up to your cable or satellite box
Already have a big stereo or surround sound system? A single cable (digital optical) will send the DVD’s sound to your big system
Compatible with just about all the video and audio formats

Image bows slightly in the top center
Lens shift is extreme – putting the projector either on the floor or just off the floor, for normal viewing height (this also causes the bowing mentioned above).
Zoom adjust defocuses lens (minor)
Sound could be better – but then it wouldn’t be a small portable solution
Remote not backlit

Even those demanding great image quality, will find the Optoma MovieTime Home Theater Projector meets their expectations.

If an all-in-one is what fits your needs, look no further. Just get one, plug it in, and enjoy the world of home theater.
