BUYING GUIDE

Whether it’s for gaming, movie nights, or professional presentations, a short throw projector can be a great addition to your tech arsenal. Short throw projectors are specially designed to project a large image from a short distance, making them ideal for small rooms or spaces where you can’t place a projector far away from the screen. But, finding the best yet affordable short throw projector can be a challenge. Here’s what to consider to make the process easier:

1. Throw Ratio: The throw ratio is the distance from the lens to the screen versus the screen width. Lower numbers indicate a shorter throw. For a short throw projector, look for a throw ratio of less than 1:1.

2. Brightness: Measured in lumens, brightness is crucial for viewing clear images. Even when shopping on a budget, try to aim for a projector offering at least 2,000 lumens.

3. Resolution: A higher resolution provides a sharper image. For a budget projector, consider at least an 800 x 600 (SVGA) or 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution. If you can stretch your budget, 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) would be even better.

4. Contrast Ratio: This is the difference between the darkest and lightest parts of the image. A higher contrast ratio can provide more vibrant colors and deeper blacks.

5. Connectivity: Look for projectors that offer multiple connectivity options such as HDMI, VGA, and USB. Wi-Fi or Bluetooth capability can be an added advantage, but they might not be common in cheaper models.

6. Lamp Life: Check the expected lamp life of the projector. Since replacing bulbs can be costly, opt for projectors with a longer lamp life, preferably over 10,000 hours.

7. Audio: If you plan on using the projector for movies or presentations with sound, check if the built-in speakers are of decent quality. However, for better audio quality, you might want to connect external speakers.

8. Brand Reputation & Warranty: Even when going for cheaper options, don’t neglect the brand’s reputation. Read reviews and check their warranty policy.

Remember, you may need to compromise on some features when looking for a cheap short throw projector. Prioritize the factors that are most important to you and remember that sometimes spending a bit more initially can save money in the long run by avoiding replacement costs. Happy shopping!
