Budget Projectors

Tools

Compare Projectors Side by Side

Pick up to three models and see the specs that actually matter — brightness in real ANSI lumens, throw ratio, input lag, and lens shift — in one table. Specs are from the manufacturers.

Choose at least one projector above to start comparing.

How to read this table

  • ANSI lumens is the honest brightness number. Bigger isn't always better — check your target with the brightness calculator.
  • Throw ratio decides where the projector sits. Verify it against your room in the throw distance calculator before buying.
  • Input lag only matters for gaming. Under 30ms is fine for casual play.
  • Contrast ratios are manufacturer claims measured under ideal conditions — useful for rough comparisons, not gospel.

Specs change and manufacturers revise quietly. If a number here looks off, the manufacturer's spec page wins. Stuck between two? Book a consultation and get a straight answer for your room.
