I've had this projector since January and have been very pleased with it. The image quality is good and the brightness and contrast ratios are amazing, especially for a budget model. You do get a little of the DLP rainbow effect on some images, I especially noticed it when watching a black and white film, but it is rare and not normally a problem.

Switching the projector on in a dark room, once it has warmed up, you are virtually blinded by the brightness of the Acer logo it initially shows. I have used the projector in a number of locations including well lit rooms with a good amount of daylight and have never had a problem viewing the image.

The projector is very easy to set up. It automatically detects input sources and switches accordingly. With other projectors I have occasionally had a problem with laptops not detecting they have a second display device connected but I have never had the problem with this projector.

Housed in a small glossy plastic case the projector is very light and portable though it does show fingerprints easily. It's a bit of a cheek that they make you buy the carry case seperately but I guess they'd put that down to the price. Personally I'd rather it came with the case and cost 10 more. Rated at 4000 lamp hours this is about twice most of the competition though as is so often the case a replacement lamp currently seems to cost more than the projector itself.

I have found the projector good for viewing video and great for presentations so if you're looking for a bright reasonably priced general purpose projector then look no further. If you are specifically looking for a projector for watching movies you may find other projectors are more suitable. Personally I would go for the X1260 over the SVGA version (X1160) but note that XGA resolution is 1024 x 768 and not 1280 x 1024 as currently listed in the product title.
