Great for the price
I wanted something just to hook up a Roku device to and a blu-ray player for my occasional use outdoors when its hot and for a more Theater like setting once in a while. Overall, picture quality is excellent, brightness is really good, even at sunset. Accesibility to some of the settings is a bit tricky but once you are there, it is easy to work with (and you only have to set it once). I love that it has the automatic bezel based on the angle of the projector, but it does lack the ability of a mechanical zoom lens (it is only for focus). Of course, it only has one hdmi input and a stereo output, so it very simple, not really customizable in that way, the usb port I haven't tried. I think this is a great buy for simple use and to enjoy a good movie on a big screen.

100% recommendation.
Fair warning, this is a first impression review. I am blown away by this thing. My only real expectations were based on the 2-3 thousand dollar projectors I remember as a kid. This absolutely blew them away, the picture quality in my basement, even on just the wall is excellent, the colors pop, the brightness is great. I’m projecting about 150 inch image and it’s still as good quality as say, a 65 inch tv of the same price. It was incredibly easy to set up and use out of the box with a google play attachment. Casting is effortless and all setup is incredibly simple, pretty much plug and play. The only thing is the audio volume is very limited, but I expected that, and it has a 3.5 mm jack so setting up a speaker system should be as effortless as everything else has been with this device. TLDR, For the price you absolutely cannot go wrong and this device has my 100% recommendation, although I’d recommend investing in a sound system.

Little projector that can!
Great projector for the money. We got ours $100 off MSRP. We had a no name projector from the big box online retailer that claimed to have higher lumens but it could not play during daylight. We treated ourselves to this Epson C880 and are very impressed. This projector can project a full image in our backyard entertainment space in daylight and has even better quality at night! The fan is audible but if you used an external speaker, thank you aux port, the external speaker drowns out the fan easily. For the money we decided to spend a little more for known quality and for a brand we know we can get replacement bulbs for whenever we end up needing them. The photo is from a cloudless sky at 5:30pm, on a dirty projector screen. Setup was super quick and easy, the auto focus works, and the little adjustable legs are also helpful.
