What customers say

2 verified voices
It's a very average and cheap 4K DLP projector using the .47" DMD chip. It was designed for super entry level home theater use. Not horrible.
Supportingvia r/projectors
The ViewSonic PX727-4K is the finest home theater projector ViewSonic has ever made, and it competes very strongly against the other 4K models priced at $1499.
