One of the best projector reviews I've ever seen. Thanks.
Guys this is great performing projector. I reviewed it a few weeks ago and all i can say is that "Dragons are meant to be seen in 100+ inch screens. The colors are great, fan is quiet I did a noise test, and the integrated sound bar is fantastic for those who dont have additional sound options. Hope this helps with your being decision. Nice Review by the way!
Hey Soldier I have actually been watching your channel since you first created it. I just wanted to tell you to keep up the good work.
This looks awesome. I never realized how useful a short throw projector would be. Seems super bright!
Save your money, this projector is underwhelming. Get the optoma P1, worth the extra money. 6000 lumens is marketing. I bought this projector and I couldn’t return it, buyer beware. It’s junk!!
@@MPR_2023 it’s not junk, I have one. It works great and the picture quality is very good.
thanks, very good presentation, focused, straight to facts and still thorough enough
Thanks for the review. Very useful as I'm thinking of getting one of these for my workplace. Does Bluetooth allow a mouse to be paired so that e.g. the Netflix app works Ok?
how do you measure the distance from the wall? do you measure from the opening to the projection area or from the edge of the side closest to the wall?
Have you done reviews of any dark projector screens?
Fantastic review ...one thing, How loud is this unit?
I got this on Black Friday special for $2100. It’s usually $2800. It’s now back on sale. It’s an amazing projector. You can project up to 150inches diagonal. The picture quality is superb. I’m in love with it. Just keep in mind that you do need to place the projector 7-10 inches away from the wall and it if you have low ceilings, the projector for can’t be too high off the ground. For $2000, this is incredible. I was going to get the epson 5040 but glad I went with this instead.
Second review I see for this projector but nobody seems to touch on the frame rate? How does that work on the projector? How high is it on 4k hdr movies and games?
when is this model available in europe?
I'm thinking really strongly about buying this. I hope this square away the Netflix issues because I use it quite a bit, I'm also wondering about the effects of the height of the stand that it sets on.
just buy a separate android box my guy. problem fixed.
How does it compare against sony 295 or epson 5050
Quick question. Does it have a zoom function? If the wall I have is not big enough can I zoom out to fit the screen?
Such a great review so I subscribed. Just pulled the trigger on this... 🤞🏻
How has it been
Maurice D I still really love it. No issues at all and picture is great. For the money and convenience I would give it a A.
Kindly tell me whether this projector or any other 4K UST projectors support Dolby Atmos
Is this projector system has motion plus setting?
Great review. 👍 is it possible to control this one via Logitech Harmony elite / hub as it can be controlled by bluetooth devices? Or can I just use a harmony control to automatically turn on VAVA as this would be connected via hdmi cec to Apple TV and Nvidia Shield tv which both work fine with Harmony-Hub
is the projected image a lot higher than the machine (say, at 100")? I am considering to buy this but some other reviews said the image is a little too high for their likings....
I wanted to get your opinion about which projector i should get. I’ve been doing a lot of research I narrowed it down to two projectors in my price range. I am torn picking between The XGIMI Aurora 4K Ultra Short laser projector, The VAVA 4K Ultra Short Throw Laser TV or The Hisense 100 L5F laser TV. I would like to get your Professional expertise on Which projector I should lean more towards
Great review
Thank you soldier, I’ve been looking at this projector for a couple days, my cousin told me about it, been doing my research, seems legit, the start up “Indiegogo” had me a bit concerned, key “start up”, been watching to much shark tank, but I’ve seen interviews with the manager of vava, seems like a legit product, I am gonna buy one, I know the technology is out there and I want to have it, my only question is, if it is new technology to this company and they have a working “prototype” how did you get a hold of it in a well designed shipping container? If I buy it now, I won’t have it for two months
nice job, thanks!
that's a very nice projector
I'm building my new home with theater now. Was pretty much set on the Hisense UST projector, but continued researching and found this. Will I be able to watch tv (i.e. Super Bowl) on this?
Yeah of course. Anything that supports HDMI works with a projector.
Does it support 3d viewing
I'm so thankful that you just set it up on your wall instead of projecting on a 100-150" screen!👏🏻 how was the quality? Considering buy a short throw projector for my living room, but I don't want a big screen on the wall😅
how did you get better apps I am try to add netflix
vava or mi femji 4k?
can you use Firestick with this?
I can watch 3d movies?
That is, indeed, very interesting but the price for a decent projecting screen has to be considered. Unfortunately, the Ambient Light Rejecting (ALR) or Ceiling Light Rejecting (CLR) screens, suitable for the ultra short throw projectors are pretty expensive. They're not mandatory or course, but they can greatly enhance the experience. I'm still looking for an affordable option... Any ideas ?
What do you consider affordable?
Build your own. You can buy the material pre-cut to size(for about $200) and wood for the frame for about $40. Screws and a bit of felt for the edges and a decent stapler, another $20. I was going to buy a screen but I'm going to build my own. I'm not a DIY expert but it looks handy enough to do. Tons of video's on TH-cam on how to do it.
while it may not boast the highest lumens in the world, brightness can be very surprising when a projector is positioned just a foot or two from the screen... i had the dell sql718 4k ust, and it was so bright that you couldn't watch it in "normal" mode.
If 25000 is out how many hours to be fully charge?
Is it quiet running?
What's a laser bulb?
Nobody seems to tell us if the distance from the screen is from the screen facing edge of the unit or the distance from the screen to the actual laser...help!
For 200 inch how far do I need to be
Thanks for the video - I wanted to let you know that I just contacted VAVA tech. regarding their 4k projector, and asked about the true native resolution. I've been trying to decide which 4k projector I'd like to purchase for my theater. I was somewhat surprised that this projector has a DMD (digital micro-mirror device) with a native resolution of 1920x1080. This VAVA unit, as well as quite a few other "4k" projectors, "support" a 4k signal.. I guess what that means is that these projectors can accept & process the 4k video signals (down scale) to be displayed with the DMD at 1920x1080.?. This isn't a true 4k projector, is it?
@Darren Munsell Yep - I actually was quite surprised that the main display chip in this machine was 1920x1080.. I did some additional reading and research, and turns out they're using a process similar to pixel shifting. To display a 4k image, this projector has to pixel shift or parcel out frames, and they have to do it 4x. A 4k image requires 8.3million pixels to be displayed,, so 1920x1080 = 2.07million.. 4(shifts)x2.07million pixels = 8.3million. They're probably shifting the images at 120-240hz, so our eyes don't see it.
This is false
It uses dlp pixel shifting which shifts pixels fractions to increase the amount of pixels hitting the screen, it does this at 240hz which makes it indistinguishable at 150inches and under from nonepixel shifted content. So yes, the amount of pixels being sent to the screen is 8.3 million making it 4k
And this is true off almost all DMD based 4k projectors. It employs pixel shifting to achieve 4k.
If I hook up an Apple4ktv, will the projector boot up for that HDMI channel when I boot up my Apple4ktv?
AHHHH lets go NYCFC!!!!
CANT wait for next month VAVA CHROMA to buy!
is it loud?
Hi,
Can it be mounted on the ceiling?
Yeap.
Can these laser projectors be used like tv and stay on during the whole day without damaging? Or just used as cinema for a few hours per day?
It's 25k hours which is about 2.8 years if you left it on day and night. But realistically you would sleep so I would say you could leave it on all daytime for 5.6 years. So, I would say it's as good as a tv. You sure must watch a lot of TV.
@@GizmoMaltese I do watch a lot of it...
I have a 1080 projector... it overheated cuz i was watching the whole day 😢
Since this one is lazer, it might heat even more.... that's why I was wondering
Nice!
That was a great review! Thanks sir.
Buy the XY screen light absorbing
salvatore Perna hahaha,you are correct .
If any interested on our XYscreen ,pls feel free to contact me ,I am the sales manager from XYscreen

Can you see the pixels at 8 to 9 feet away?
It's 4K or well really faux K, pixel shifting, so you shouldn't be able to see pixels from even 2ft away.... My 1080p projector doesn't show pixels unless your at least 6ft close.
How loud are the fans?
Chad Kleinlein I can’t hear them at all
А чем отличается от Xiaomi Laser Projection TV.?
This is the only ultra short throw 4k projector that is dual voltage. That I found anyway.
How much you pay for it
vava 4k ultra or Xiaomi Laser Projector ?
Wait for LG HU85LA better
@@Sgt.AhmedQ8 And a much bigger price too!!
Gotta wait to see pricing on the new LG UST 4K. LG has a much better OS on it.
When....
@@giorgio130366 Hopefully soon, they announced it back in January at CES.
read that the lg is going to come in at about 8k+ given it's double laser technology...
@@CAPUTO000 Dang I was hoping for something in the 3 to 3.5k range. If that is the case I guess it will the Vava.
@@CAPUTO000 ciao is possibile to post a link
Is this the same projector as the new xiaomi just repackaged in a new case
My thoughts exactly, definitely a reskinned Xiaomi. Just like the Wemax is just a reskinned Xioami.
@Dreamstate wouldnt call him a "shill"... Hes a reviewer not a pro av guy who ran calibration and bench mark testing. His review from the average enduser pov. Ironically, i find that most people who use the " shill" "sheeple" type of name calling tend to be just that
Yes, a re-skin. 6000 is light source brightness, and actual projection brightness is merely 1500
@Dreamstate or maybe he's just getting the info from the user manual or box, you know, like most consumers do....
Looks like and is too expensive...
Great review. But it always seems like a waste to project against a wall.
It is good but why it is so expensive...
I love this projector but am having issues with finding a compatible receiver... I have tried the 4000 dollar pioneer elite, the Sony 1080, and a 2000 dollar Onkyo all support hdcp 2.2 Dolby vision/hdr 10+ on all ports etc. but when connected to the projector I cannot get hdr except on Sony but even then it’s 4:2:0 not 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 I have made sure the projector is set to do hdr and have made sure all the settings within the receiver menus are set to enhanced or hdcp 2.2 these same receivers work fine with my 2 c9 OLEDs and my long throw Sony 4K projector. So I know it’s not a receiver issue and all my cables are the same and I have tried several Apple TV’s so I know it’s not them for all intents and purposes it appears to be a projector receiver compatibility issue because when I plug directly into the projector it works fine if I do ARC it works fine...(pain in the neck and single source only) so not good solutions there... is there a brand of AV receiver that anyone has working with this projector? Yamaha, Denon, Marantz, etc? I don’t want to keep switching the receivers around or buy yet another for trail and error purposes... it’s getting tedious lol... I may end up sticking with the Sony when all is said and done but it’s not ideal as the audio quality is sup-par compared to the more expensive offerings from other brands... thanks for anyone’s suggestions in advanced.
Did you make surr you set your vava projector at hdmi 2.0 from the menu options?
DAM YOU STILL DOING VIDS
Is it capable to project 3D movies?
LOFL there is no way this is 6000 lumens! Can this thing be ceiling mounted?
Second...you deserve more subscribers. Also this could be the smart tv killer.
I'm looking for a projector to put out by my pool this summer to watch movies and play ps4. What projector would you recommend?? Anything under $500???
xgimi z6 aurora
Do you think is safe to put a proyector and a PS4 near the water you’ll be in? Good luck with that brah.👍😎
I have a semi-technical question. From the top of the projector, when
set for 150", how far up the wall does the projected image start? I ask
because my screen came in today. I want to get it hung and stretched so
that any creases have time to work themselves out before the projector
arrives. Thanks!!
Think I will just wait for BenQ to make a 4K short throw, I'm still enjoying my HT2150ST just fine. I also really wish everyone would just STOP making white projectors.... why would they not make all of them black? My projector is the only white thing in my entire room....
White blends with the ceiling more
Greetings. I bought a vava projector. How can I watch netflix.
Osbaldo Regalado Netflix wont work on it. You will need a smart device like the fire stick or something to use Netflix
How much milliseconds is the Input Lag in Gamemode ?
@Dreamstate that is sad
I’m also wondering what the input lag is
@Dreamstate yeah the xiaomi 4k is 96 mil input lag
And they look the same don't they other than the color
Is your wall textured at all?
$2500! Thank you, Soldier. Please include prices in ALL your reviews! ;-)
$2k !!!
Hi Brother
Why the built in HK speakers? It’s got all kinds of options for audio. If you’re sophisticated enough to want a 4K UST projector, you’re not going to have much use for the onboard speakers. They could have lowered the price and made the projector smaller.
Then there’s the Indiegogo thing. I’m not giving anyone 3 grand if they’re going to call it a “donation”. I want some guarantees!
You go Soldier!
This seem expensive for me unless some one can get me one
I have no clue why you use that expensive laser projector on a normal white wall, with an appropriate screen you got a astonishing picture even in moderate daylight. Please do a test on a xyscreen or ELITE SCREENS. I think you have to check that out!
Looks like the they just used the Xaomi Mi Laser Projector and put their skin of Android on it... Also they're charging twice the price.
Yep
Except in English
So it isn't actually 4k and 1080 upscalled
2:50 "Yes, yes in the face!"
LOL
Yeah, but no Dolby Vision or HDR+
why can't you plug in a mouse ?
You can! I connected a USB keyboard and Mouse
Hey Soldier, ma man, there is a malware in that link dude!!!
2500 and no Netflix or Hulu no, now I know your probably able to hoo your laptop up to it to mirror it for Netflix but that much money it should do that out of the box but other than that seems pretty nice but they could’ve partner with amazon or google for fire tv or google tv built right in cause their built in service doesn’t seem very good at all, they need to take that price down or improve much more before release
$2500 and it doesn't even have 3D . Next!
@@film-maniac It does have 3D
You can afford $2500 projector you can afford a $100 streaming device
Is there a projector that shows better and brigher than this?
Emilio Favorite Music he need a ALR UST screen ,then can work very well on daytime like TV
Too many but in your review make me not in favor of sending 2k for this . Thanks 😊
I was going to subscribe until I saw you using CNN to showcase this projector. No Thank You.
Bob Anderson wow, just wow
@@LSSS82 My sentiments exactly. Some people with tin foil hats.
you should go play in traffic
Is this really 6000 lumens? It looks like it's around 2000 lumens.
I agree I wish people doing reviews would be more detailed instead of reading the specs, like doing a measurement of the actual lumen output, whether or not if it's 4k upscaled or native, hdr performance and brightness while in 3d mode just to name a few
I guess the comment section is just for us.
@Jimbo Bimbo Lol
In daylight, it looks like max 1200 lumen. NOT recommend for anyone who have couple thousands dollars. Keep your money and wait for LG UST.
Daniel Ng a ALR UST screen will be helpful
None of ust projectors are real 4k
Depends on the projector and screen you are using. You are not going to find one for under 10 grand though.
I wish it had 3D and it could be ceiling mounted. two downsides
3D now added
Whats the point of projecting a 4k image onto plaster thats terrible at reflecting light, it might seem a good idea untill you see the same image on a screen, then you realise how bad it is, you lose so much gain and contrast, when screens now cost pittence to buy.
this looks like exact copy cat of chinese brand Xgimi Lune 4k which released a year before..and cost about 1.8k
I just got this projector last week, I really don’t like it, doesn’t work with PS4, the apps are all android for phone and are awful, it also won’t display 4K signal from 4K Firestick. Got it to work with my 4K disc player but even then it was dark. I tried to return it but they have a NO RETURN AFTER SHIPPING POLICY.... I would avoid this product like the plague.
Yeah I'm struggling with mine as well..cannot figure out how to display 4k content.
rlm7189 actually got that part figured out! Go to main menu, select the HDMI port you want to use (it helps to have something playing when you do this) then press and hold the MENU button until a little sub menu comes up, select the HDMI category and select HDMI 2.0, that worked for me!
@@greggwitfoth9997 thank you.. admittedly I only spent a couple hours with it last night..but like you found the brightness to low. And the Electronic Sharpness is useless. I was watching TH-cam from it's downloaded app and it was unbearable. Like worse than 480p. So I think I need to do some more playing and hook up some HD Content via HDMI as you suggest!
rlm7189 yeah, I deleted all apps, couldn’t find a single useful one
It's called VAVA because it comes with a little Mexican gardener.
O man just buy a new 82 inches tv and enjoy
Why? 82 is massively smaller than 150.
i have a 82 inch and it doest give the cinematic feel
i’m being triggered by watching you project this on a wall and not a proper screen. otherwise nice review.
It's $2800 now (2019 11 15)

just saw a facebook scam ad advertising this product for 99 dollars. yeah right!
I found this one because of that one on Facebook. The Facebook one is a different brand I think.
