Epson PowerLite U50 Projector Review - Picture and Sound Quality

Epson PowerLite U50 Projector Review – Picture and Sound Quality: Color Modes, Video Image Quality, Text and Presentation Quality, Audio Quality

These photos from the Blu-Ray disk Journey to Space and the Netflix show Explained were shot in Cinema Mode to demonstrate the excellent color capabilities of the PowerLite U50 when projecting video content. Thanks to its 3LCD technology, the projector has as many color lumens as it does white ones, which really makes the colors vibrant, even during the daytime.

The Epson PowerLite U50 produces an extremely sharp image when projecting text. The result is text that is readable even at the smallest font sizes, from a good distance away. The most common font size for text is 12pt font, which was highly readable from 15 to 20 feet back down the hall, at an angle (that's the furthest I could step away and still see the screen in my condo).

Presentations and websites are no exception to this claim. The smaller text on the SpaceX, Boeing, and National Geographics websites, as well as the infographics below, all were highly readable. The presentation slides looked gorgeous as well.
