Are there better projectors out there for 2D content?

Sure, for 4-10x the cost.

Are there better projectors out there for 3D?

Possibly, but nothing I know of under 5k+ and even those have more ghosting issues than the acer.

So it all comes down to the Acer being an amazing value for the money.

Things I Love:

1. Image quality is top notch for 720p
2. Colors are excellent
3. It is very bright even in eco mode (almost too bright for dark room)
4. The high brightness helps 3d since glasses cut down some light.
5. It is quiet in eco mode

I wish it had:

1. Faster colorwheel. I do see the DLP rainbow in every dark scene, and often even in brighter scenes.

2. Bigger zoom lens. I can BARELY get it to fill my 106" screen at 12'

3. Lens shift. I have a rear wall shelf mount @75" from the floor. I have to set the acer upside down on the shelf to make it fill the screen. Also, I hate using digital keystone because it lessens the image quality, especially small text, and without I can not get correct geometry. The top of my image overlaps a little on left and right sides and bottom lines up well.

4. better remote control. It is very small and unresponsive. I have to hold arm up high and point right at proj to get it to work.

Please note, the features on my wishlist would easily make this projector cost over twice as much. While those features would be much appreciated, you can't fault the acer at the price they are selling for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cinema-style 3D in your own home!!, July 19, 2010

Ok, when I purchased this 720p/1080i projector, I had fully researched the item to be sure it would output Blu ray 3D and video gaming in 3D on a large 120" screen. It was a worthwhile investment. This projector, coupled with the Nvidia emitter/glasses, computer with a blu ray player and the right graphics card (check Nvidia website) and the right software- Arcsoft's Totalmedia, I now have near cinema sized 3D experiences at home- it does sound like a lot, but in the long run I spent less then 1/2 then I would have had I purchased the Panasonic, Sony or Samsung 3d tvs that are 1/2 the size of my screen. There is absolutely no ghosting, and all of the 3D Blu rays I have watched are amazing, Monsters vs Aliens, Coraline, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Grand Canyon Adventure and Ice Age 3. I am hoping the 3D Blu ray releases will pick up and there will be many more choices available.. In the meantime, Nvidia has 400 PC games that can be played in 3D- Left for Dead 2 , Batman Arkham Asylum, etc (check ther site for more game titles). The immersive experience of 3D with this projector is unparalleled; at least until a 1080p 3D projector with a reasonable price comes out.

5.0 out of 5 stars What's the best projector for 3D ?, September 11, 2010

I bought a PC last year with the nVidia 3d system, it came with a Samsung 22" monitor and it looks utterly fantastic.
I instantly thought "I need a bigger display" so I went to nVidia's page to view compatible displays. The Optoma HD66 was and still is listed as being compatible ans supported. So I bought one...well guess what? it is neither compatible or currently supported.
If you search the nvidia page you will find that if your HD66 was built before August of 2010 (that's right, August of 2010!) it WILL NOT WORK.
I then called Optoma tech support and was told by the phone tech that in order for it to work, it had to be sent back to the factory for modification and that I would be responsible for the shipping.... I told the guy that that was outrageous and I would simply return it and get something that actually did work as advertised. In case your wondering, I purchased the Acer H5360 .. I should have purchased it the first time around, not only does the 3D work flawlessly, it has way more features than the HD66 like "auto keystone, auto orientation, colored wall compensation" to name a few. If your looking for a 3D projector that really delivers, you can wait two months(the tech support guy told me it would take that long to get the new ones on the shelves)till the compatible HD66's hit the streets (and hope they work)or you can get the Acer H5360. Of course dealing with Amazon is the only way to go, the return of the HD66 was simple and I am enjoying real 3D in my living room on the Acer.
