Cinema Optix Hdx650
Product Description
For a family room type environment and 3D, while also great that the HDX650 claims plenty of lumens, it came up well short of claim. That still makes it rather bright in "best mode" but, it's only slightly brighter than the average projector at its brightest, a far cry from the 4500 lumens claimed, which really would have been impressive. More on this later, let's just say we would have loved to have seen something like 4500 hundred of those 4000 claimed, but almost 3600 lumens was it.
Give or take the cross talk and or any other artifacts, the 3D was pretty solid. I don't see it being noticeably inferior to some of those projectors selling for 3-4 times the price. I will give the 3D on the Mitsubishi a slight edge, though. (It's the only one I had here, in close proximity to the HDX650 arrival.
Overall, 3D looked rather good. Brightness can be a minor limitation, depending on your screen. This projector, though has generally not looked dim, during viewing in my rooms. It is a bit brighter than any of the previous 3D projectors to roll through here, but for the big LG CF3D. Most of the rest are fooling around in the 600 to 1000 lumens maximum, so very thin when it comes to 3D. Even this projector could really stand to be half again as bright - or more, for really nice 3D brightness.
No matter. 3D and 2D are generally very impressive. Add to that Cinama Optix first to market with an under $5000 3D projectror, - and they come in at exactly - $4599.
For shear value, the Cinema Optix HDX650 should be the projector to beat as other models hit the market in the next few months. For the HDX650's solid 2D performance, and pretty darn good 3D as well, for a nice low price, earns the HDX650 our Hot Product Award.
3D capable, includes supporting both 720 and 1080i/1080p 3D, including Blu-ray 3D and all DirecTV 3D we tested with
Bright overall, with exceptionally bright best mode, and above average overall brightness

I bought this projector for watching movies and I couldn't be more satisfied. We hooked up our Wii to it and the whole family uses that part of it now more than ever. It is so much fun with the big screen vs our 50 inch TV. m Good quality unit. I would buy it again, but because it is an LED I don't think I will have to.
