Happy Saturday Everyone. Daylight screens are a game changer! 😳. I've had to turn the projector brightness down at night as it's insane 😂. AWOL have since said I can keep the projector too, so I am over the moon, it is ludicrously bright.

So you posted the video and then they gifted you a £6,000 projector? Interesting.
Paul, I know I'm but one of the soon to be millions of your subscribers. But I hope you will allow me to hug you if we ever meet
On several occasions I have been thinking about or attempting to not watch your videos ever again along with the rest of life.
If I may explain by simile? In a Murtough learning Gibbs is not trying to draw a psycho pension kind of way. You roll the tape back to where I am again Gibbs Jumping off the building with you and you've in the process rescued me!
Ok what actually happen is I put on your videos as a hail mary, and you definitely mary me. As
You help me cry & heal
Which is why I want to hug you to show you thanks
Thanks again
Anna
@@tomer4566that seem pretty reasonable given how much they would have to pay for an in video placement.
Hopefully Awol will see a significant in their trade & this is just the beginning of a strong Mutual relationship!
I just wish I could afford there kit. Maybe one day I can to be as good a creator as Paul & Awol will see me as a potential partner?
I was going to tell you to please not video yourself taking it all down and boxing it up. It'd be heartbreaking for everyone (except those idiots). Now I'm just really pleased you get to keep it. ❤
@@tomer4566 They sponsored the video from the outset and provided me with the screen. Every video I make is sponsored in a similar fashion, this is how I make my living. You either trust me to be ethical or you don't, but there's plenty of evidence of my ethics over the years, and every video highlights each of the products failings in a section entitled "What's wrong with it". I've lost sponsors for my honesty (sometimes brutal honesty and I'm pretty sure Deebot won't be back), but I won't ever change because I couldn't sleep at night knowing I'd lied to people for money, I'd rather risk my fee and lose a long term opportunity than be a shill.
Fresnel screens are indeed a game changer, been saying it for a while now.
Edit: a small correction because I know you love it when I do that... Rainbow Effect isn't caused by the color wheel although it can make it worse. Rainbow is caused by the fact that DLP projects each color (R,G, and B) consecutively rather than simultaneously. Trilasers can flash on and off faster than color wheels can switch so the rainbow effect is lessened, but not completely eliminated like it is on other projector types (3LCD, LCoS, and Single LCD).
🤣 thanks Rob!
Hey Rob! If you remember, I asked you about the Hisense F100w 100"ALR fresnal and you said it was a nice screen. Well, I have had it for 2 weeks and not disappointed in the slightlest.
As someone whp is a trained tech in this field, this is absoulouty correct. RBE can be minimized by a pulseing tri color laser array ( as seen in later Samsung DLP sets and the only Mitsubishi Laser 72" dlp rptv set back in the mid 2000's ). Not new tech, but updated for 4k ust's and regular projectors.
Additional correction, not all DLP projectors are sequential. DLP projectors are mostly sequential, but there are triple DLP projectors, which also display RGB simultaneously.
That was absolutely amazing. I remember 10yrs ago you could barely make anything out on a screen unless it was 3am and every little light in the room had black electrical tape over it.
Things have really moved on. I had my first projector when I was 21, and it had 3 bulbs, red green and blue! In my memory it was amazing, but i bet it was junk in reality 😂
That Matrix skit was brilliant. Love it mate. 🤙
Came on here to say that too, hibbs on form as always
I needed this, thanks guys!
I was actually sitting on the toilet watching this and you freaked me out for a moment there.
Yessss! 🤣
I’m actually sitting on the toilet and I saw this was the top comment whilst watching this and you freaked me out, then the part actually came up and spoke to me directly!
Thank god I’m on the toilet because I was ROYALLY freaked out!
Love,
Phil.
Welcome in the club😂
@@thepoolteam9339 My sister told me that her husband was on the toilet when the New York Earthquake hit, yesterday. I couldn't stop laughing imagining the anxiety of trying to get up and walk or run away and not being able to.
2 out of 3 Paul, I’m already subscribed!
You got me there for a moment! 😂
Thank you for always doing an accurate portrayal of my DIY journey. I feel so seen.
I'm about to do a load of DIY for the next video. Please pray for me 😂
@@paulhibbert Just make sure your brother's available on those days first 😆
I know you say game changing quite a bit but... Wow... That screen really is
Crazy right? I had no idea these things existed until they approached me
Light rejection from the sides-"This is a game-changer." I completely agree. Every time the screens get better, I think of all the space we devote to housing the TV. They make some very nice boxes with additional storage, but they still take at least a foot out of your floor space and require dedicated wall space. Whereas you can put a screen in front of a window and just temporarily use that space.
(We live in a small house. We need things to be multi-function.)
F2.0, 3500lm, full glass lens: They really went all out on this one. I can see why you want to keep it.
The lag times are also fantastic. I suppose there are some Flash-level reflex people who wouldn't play a game with that, but for us mortals, it's not that bad.
"It comes with a 4K Firestick": I really like this idea. First, it means that the projector people don't think they have to reinvent the wheel. Second, it means you have an established product with all the lore and workarounds you might need to do what you want already documented. It's a great idea and I wish more folks would do this. Third, as you noted, it allows upgrading.
I say this a lot, but I really appreciate that you include the caveats (like the bits with the remotes and the internal speaker). It's good to know all these things before you make a purchase choice. I'd agree, the price is a kicker (but if you want the very best....)
Thanks again for a great review. It did seem a little short on the gags this time. (Nothing on the fly?) Nonetheless, it was still great.
Thanks as always mate 😁
The IT crowd reference was fantastic, thank you lol
Rainbow was a stone cold classic, I’d try make a pun about it, but I wouldn’t want to Bungle the punchline xxx
Hi Paul. Smashing video delivered in your gorgeous comedy style but yet still informative, unbiassed and engaging. Thanks for the mention. I'll talk to you more through Patreon. All the best
Thanks Matt! Sorry I didn't get your shout out on the camera video, that was dumb of me!
@@paulhibbert No worries man, we're all busy. So busy in fact that I don't know what to do 1st or next. Thanks again, take care
@@paulhibbert Thanks so much.
Matt has been walking around with a stonking smile on his face from ear to ear after seeing himself and CAM-LOC mentioned on your video ☺️☺️☺️
Thank you for taking the time. It means a LOT.
I need to ask you something so will send you a Patreon msg
Yes, this is a fresnal screen. I actually just got the hard screen version, 100" F100W ALR made by Hisense. With all the lights on and a window behind me it is just wonderfull. It is currently on Amazon for $499 and ships from Beech Camera in NJ. It came in a huge box and on a pallet as it ships by truck. Screen itself weighs about 50lbs, but totally worth it! I am using a VAVA 4k black edition with Harmon Kardon speakers @30watts per chanel, 1800 ansi lumens and it looks fanatastic!
I noticed the system of which they use to hang the screen with is identical to the Hisense screens. Hmmmm.........
This would be an awesome setup and if you can afford it and want the best it looks a great option. Love your videos and your sense of humour. Thanks Paul
Looks good Paul. Happy Saturday and thank you.
Thanks Ron, Happy Saturday dude!
I recently purchased a awol ltv 3000 and vividstorm 120 alr screen. It's stunning. Great video btw
Love the IT Crowd clip!!! Great job fam :)
Hahaha.. loved the review and also the ability to slip in some IT crowd humor and just off humor.
Many thanks for the honest review and laughs.
Cheers,

‼️‼️ Door Fury Episode‼️‼️
Is by far the best science experiment
🙏❤️ Love from Scotland ❤️🙏
Great video as always. Funny I was just watching that episode of the IT Crowd last night. Classic stuff. I had erased Rainbow from my memory, but apparently used to watch it all the time. I have the firestick max that you got in the box and one of the cool things about it is you can pair it with your bluetooth headphones or speakers, and then the volume controls work. I have a huge tv and a huge projector setup, and there is just something about the projector that gives it that movie theatre feel, no matter what the resolution. Size is king. Bigger the better.
Game mode disables Keystone correction because that requires image processing and that increases input lag. Probably some processing required for that bit of brightness output as well.
That being said, I await the day when these projectors can finally do 4k120 and better.
Just saw this projector and screen will be on Amazon's lightning deals on Wednesday morning, and it's already 25% off if you buy the projector AND one of their screens at the same time!
That " can you subscribe " actually got me too
This looks really cool, I am thinking what to replace my aging plasma with and a setup like that would fit the bill, another great video. Thank you,
This is actually super impressive
Can’t wait to see the video of you getting that screen back in the box to send it back 😂😂
Happy Hibbertday 😁
Right back atcha dude!
That's it I'm sold. This will be my next tv
Mine too. Just not now. Maybe in 2034.
Hadn't heard about 'rainbowing' before. Happen to be in a place with a massive projector so went and tested it.... mind blown. Also thank you for mentioning the importance of using manual keystone instead of 3D keystone / corner correction. The difference it can make to brightness in particular can be massive.
It's an odd one, it's good that you don't suffer with it, I don't either. It'll soon be a thing of the past though I guess as this style of projector is becoming more mainstream.
Morning Sir, happy Saturday!
Happy Saturday brother! ♥️
I enjoyed this video, your production values are improving all the time. I would be very interested to know the full list of projectors you have tested. JVC and Epson both make some amazing projectors in this price range. It's worth noting this projector won't do 120hz 4K.
wow that thing is crazy
I was actually pooping when he said that haha
You can, however, create an Alexa routine to send Fire stick to home - you also need the Fire TV app installed on the phone, for some reason, and trigger it from an Alexa device. That way you can dispense with the Fire stick remote
that just got a sub and like for the rainbow bit..... also matrix was good too.
I love watching these as they have a nice amount of light heated fun to them when showing the dribble factor TECH.... This one had me going till I found out I'd need a mortgage for the projector... Keep up the good work baldy and thanks for the smiles you give us sad bunch of tech lovers.
Haha, thanks mate. I think the screen is worth investing in if you have a UST projector already
@@paulhibbert The list is long.... Just invested in a new server setup, that cost my left testicle..
The TV / Projector is the next funding session. After the 2 months Iof yomping around the USA - Jack Reacher style - no bags buy it as ya go. Keep up that fine work...
I would really prefer a ceiling mount projector like this.
I had to stop at 1:45 and seriously ask you if you’ve ever considered making a short movie. 😂😂😂 “, the wallpaper, you’re condescending, neo, your hair has changed”🤣🤣🤣
You’re the modern day Monty python all in one! And better!
And the irony/ play on words, of this upload is daylight savings begins tonight in Australia, clocks go back 1 hour for us in Victoria👋
This really put a smile on my face dude. Thank you! I wish I had more time to make something like that, I would really enjoy making a movie!
@@paulhibbert i pray you get the chance to do it! You really have a talent as the writer and actor! 🥇🙏
Great review thanks, I do prefer projectors because they are front lit, I have light sensitive eyes so backlit TVs or oled TV really hurts my eyes where as projectors don't so are the best but are bong work in daylight rooms, thanks for the review if this as it looks like it may help, one the price comes down.
There’s obviously still some fading, and if the sun is shining directly on it then you have the same issue as a tv really, screen glare. But it makes a HUGE difference
I have a con to add, it's not big enough for your room, you get those white bars on the side and top of the display wall. (Do you remember when people used to complain about the black bars from 4:3 content). Also loving the inserting yourself into movies/tv, I'm sure it's taking a while to do so good job.
I was thinking about not doing the movie thing anymore as you're right, it takes ages and the skits hadn;t been getting much love, and then this week there's been loads of comments saying how great they were. Super reassuring, thanks man! The projector actually projects a gigantic image but I hung the screen about 2 inches too low 😫
@@paulhibbert Yeh, I noticed the mis-hung screen as well. Figured it was a temporary thing. Btw, Hisense used the same exact mounting system Hmmmmmm???
Lol the toilet subscribe pop up got me good😂
Thanks Paul, while watching this video 'on the loo' it was like the phone had become a poisonous spider in my hand...v funny.
🤣 that made my day!
Damn Paul! Nice Production on this one. I can't afford this right now, but 24 months from now? Price goes down, I got some more coinage? Thanks again for showing us the good stuff.
Thanks for appreciating it man. 😊 I often get hate for posting the more expensive stuff, but I think the channel needs that variety sometimes, every now and then you want to show what is possible with a bigger budget
Eyes up Guardian!
My OCD cannot handle the black bars on the side and the bottom. That said, love this screen + projector. That price though...
Remember Rainbow, ! I thought you were Zippy LOL
Being zippy was my first job in television before I became Jonny Sins... Don't google that.
Rear projection fresnel screens were used quite often in the past with old crt projectors. They could significantly boost the perceived image brightness.
They were combined with a lenticular screen as well. This was standard on all rptv's. The later dlp sets used a grey screen to enhance contrast.
Great video as always.
I'm currently looking for a UST projector, and screen and have considered all the DLP ones including the AWOL ones.
This daylight screen is a fresnel type one (manufactured by Vividstorm?) to get that side rejection of light, which would be perfect for my planned usage but as you point out there is no sign currently of any rollup screens.. I'd need a ceiling/wall mounted pull down one eventually and with no sign of one coming I guess I'll have to go for a more traditional lenticular ALR screen that will only reject light from above :/ One downside of these fresnel screens is as you point out viewing angle so its not suitable for a room where someone could be sat wide off axis from the centre.. I thought i'd read they can be fussier with hot spots too, but yours looks great.
Unfortunately I just can't risk suffering from rainbows and sadly a triple laser doesn't eliminate rainbows, it just changes and potentially reduces (or worsens) them. The colour wheel for different colours is replaced by 3 separate lasers for each colour, they still have to fire onto a single DLP chip in series for each colour and it's thats discrepancy that can lead to rainbows in both cases. The only DLP solution to remove rainbows is a triple DLP one any of which make this projector look affordable!
If you could go and spend time looking at certain projectors and seeing if you can see rainbows on them then be fairly confident a particular model would be ok for you then that'd be something but that's just not easy to do seemingly, especially for a lot of these brands like AWOL or Formovie :/
The only UST that guarantees not having any rainbow effect are the Epson ones like the LS800, which are triple LCD displays and can drive all colours for all pixels at one point in time. The LS800 is also brighter than the AWOL at 4000 lumens and has actual measured input latency of around 20ms at 60hz, whereas sadly the AWOL latency measurements are not near to the timings that they claim, more like 80ms unfortunately.
Sadly the LS800 only does a 2x pixel shift to get 2x1080p resolution instead of the 4 shift of most other ones like this AWOL which gets you closer to a true 4K on screen image.
It's all so frustrating, but at these prices its just frightening to take a punt, especially if it involves international shipping (and potential returns)
Love your work though, still torn too about what home security cameras to get so will keep an eye out for more of your videos on them!
Good info dude, thank you. Could you not send the projector back if the rainbow effect is too bad? I know it’s a pain , but it is what I would do if I suffered with it
I am keeping my eye on products like this. My current TV has a glare issue. We have all blinds closed, yet still get "light leak". Would love to be able to leave the blinds open and watch tv at the same time. However, the price on this would not receive "WAF" (wife approval factor).
@8:50 It turns brightness down (and keystone correction) to improve response time. Keystone processing is obviously going to take time. The time from 0 brightness to full brightness matters, too. So lowering full brightness increases response time for gaming.
Loved the Matrix skit
I know you have done a couple of videos on presence Sensors, but they are to be for indoor use. What is the best outdoor presence sensor?.
Please do a review on the new Open Earbuds by Bose.. believe they are a new release in the QuietComfort lineup
Was only just looking at projectors yesterday purely for gaming and computer related projects.. . just wasnt sure how resolution or hz would be with the gaming side of things..
Morning dude!
Hey man!!
Hi Paul, Can you please suggest which light switches would be compatible for dual control stairs light in uk? My option are Moes switches or aqara dual relay module t2. Can you please recommend good option for uk stairs setup please
This looks like a good option for me, as I can't get the size of TV (65-inch or bigger) I want in the master bedroom on the second floor of my property because you won't be able to get the bloody thing round the tight curves of the stairs. I think getting a projector is going to have to be the answer.
I have been following you videos on broadlink remote, i was curious since rm pro + has RF capabilities and can learn signals, is it possible to make it learn car keys?
Thanks in anticipation.
How are the black level details compared to a JVC or Sony projector in a dark room?
Can projectors look crispy though? Like 4k-8K resolution?
With these short throw projectors, wouldn't it be a problem placing a big center speaker?
I suppose you could just put the projector on a cabinet and put the centre speaker in the cabinet 🤷🏻♂️
Hey Paul how do you deal with fan noise from projectors I have been using a projector for a few years and have it mounted behind the couch so i get fan noise directly from above if I turn the volume up of the thing Im watching its ok but when others in the house are in bed I cant so get background fan any products you know of that can help
Short of going full DIY and replacing the fans with more expensive ones the only thing I can think of is some good Bluetooth headphones assuming your stuff is playing on a device that has Bluetooth 😊
Not related I know, but which is the best smart hub as of now, that does all the usual standards. That projector is awsome btw
That screen that goes up and down at the beginning of the vid, can you control that via HA?
Does the gaming mode work with 3D? It doesn't on the Xgimi I got for our bedroom, which would have been a deal breaker if I had known about that limitation in advance (hi, I mod games to work in stereo 3D, so it's kind of vitally important that 3D and gaming mode work together).
Sorry dude, no idea on that one. I've not got the facilities to really test it either. I tried googling around but can;t find an answer, you might have to ask AWOL directly on that one.
@@paulhibbert Alright, thanks for checking.
I have an AWOL 2500 and I love it. I got it when they first came out. On the firestick, the idiots at Amazon have decided that nobody uses a receiver and sound system because the only thing you can set up to work with cec they only list TV;s no receivers and the AWOL is not on the list. I'm done with, sick of fire tv and their control and have moved on.
That was definitely not the Rainbow 🌈 I remember ha.
Also that projector is impressive.
Zippy George and Bungle have a lot to answer for!
I know you opened your blinds Paul, but it is still the UK, how does it work in real daylight? Kidding aside, that is really nifty.
I want one
Over three and a half grand😲 i just bought an 85 inch QLED for under two. Its amazing what you can get when you shop around 😂
Yeah, like I said at the end, this level of expense can only be justified if you're wanting 120-150 inch screen.
I was going to say "why can't you keep the projector" then heard the price and went "ah ok" THEN saw your comment, how the hell did you manage that jedi mind trick Paul?!
I'd love to get a short throw projector, but at the moment have no idea what is "good" and "bad"
I think saying in the video they could pry it from my cold dead fingers did it. 🤣. They've been really nice and I'm super grateful, I LOVE this thing!

It’s a great ust projector just super expensive
But does it have matter? Apple integration? Home Assistant?
“This is just a white room mate”
Huge error here. Laser projectors are not immune from Rainbow Effect. This projector is not immune from RBE. Even though it lacks a color wheel it is still a single chip DLP. It still must produce color sequentially. It’s three laser NOT three chip. Instead of a single lights source filtered through a color wheel- its three light sources cycled rapidly. Different technique: same result. It’s just that modern 4K DLPs produces pixels at a pace of 240Hz to make the pixel shifting work. So RBE is much less a problem for MOST people. But the only way to be 100% free of the artifact is to go with a 3 chip projector (Epson/Sony/JVC).
What a huge error, looks fine to me 🥳
So how is this different than my vividstorm ALR screen? Details mate!
The ability to block light from the sides for one thing ;)
@@paulhibbert ok cool, but how?
you just lost me when you mentioned price.... Good video anyway...
Paul, sometimes I think you might want to pivot to reviews starting with the Elephant in the room - no wonder they want it back 😉
They let me keep it in the end, guess I did a good job 😂

Woah, good eye!
@@paulhibbert Just call me Hawkeye, don't though because that's like really confusing. I feel privileged to have had a reply from you. I love your channel and dont even have any home tech tbf but I like seeing whats out there.
I was thinking abou tthe 3500pro , but read couple reviews from users, that it can NOT produce pure white..its mostly pinky, light purply.. .can somebody confirm? or show pic with pure white ?
Not true at all. The pink happens when you take a picture of the white with a poor camera. The LTV 3500 Pro is the highest rated UST bar none.
This is in JVC DILA price territory but probably more convenient with day time viewing.
Just googled that, 8K!?! Whoah, would love to see it in action!
@@paulhibbert I've only seen the pre 2010 models. 1080p with inky blacks. I am sure the new 8K laser ones are epic. They are front projectors though. I am sure it would be fun if you haven't played with one before. Probably powered zoom, horz/vert lenshift, focus and iris.
Morning Paul. I have some stuff to throw at govee today. I've had 3 LED Strips. They've all broke with miscoloured lights. Do you know why?
Sounds like a bad batch, if they’re under warranty I would send them back! Hope there’s not a lot of that going on as I have 12 of them planned for my new office as a very permanent installation 😳

I definitely do not get any rainbow effect on my Epson projector.
????? I just want to SEE this projector 📽️ showing the opening to Star Wars on that daylight screen just once. Even just two seconds of footage. That will tell me how well this projector and the daylight screen do for showing black level and stars ????
Especially with the light coming in the window.
Do you only ever play the first 2 mins of the Destiny 2 New Light mission? 😅
The reality is I’ve never even played it 😂
Well hello there

For the price of the projector and the screen, you can get a 100 inch TV though
How about 150 inches? 😉
How bigis thescreen? 150? Or 120?
The one in the video is 100”, they also do a 120” version of this same screen
Thank you for your response.
Interesting. I was thinking of buying a smart glass projector screen but a new house would have been cheaper. Given your extensive wardrobe I do feel that you could make more effort when appearing in the cutaways, Roger would not be impressed, ho, ho.

Careful man, Jeff Bezos might hire you off the back of this comment for his ideas team.
It looks great Paul, but how does it perform with a normal LED projector with a direct throw from, lets say 10ft away. I want my bedroom cinema to look like a cinema with the projector behind me, and not below the screen. Great Vlog as always. Thank you.
Thanks dude! Unfortunately this particular screen is for short throw projectors only as the material blocks light from above and from the sides. They do a long throw screen for a projector sat behind you, but it will only block light from underneath, not from the sides as far as I know. Cheaper though I think, and will still make a huge difference from just projecting onto a wall or a white screen.
I don't understand why they put an internal speaker in projectors at all (except for portable ones) because no one is going to use it.
I am ironically using it right now 😂 I do plan to buy a decent sound system for it though
Actually the Harmon Kardon ones in my mini XGimi are pretty awesome, especially when you throw the thing in your suitcase for traveling
