Plan a projector setup around your room

A closer look.

Measure the room first

Record the available projector-to-screen distance and the space for the image. Check the manufacturer's throw guidance before assuming a particular model can fill your intended screen.

Consider the entire viewing setup

List your sources, from a streaming device to a game console, and confirm the inputs. Think about where speakers, cables, and power outlets will sit so the layout works in practice.

Compare the claims carefully

Brightness specifications can use different measurement conventions. Compare like-for-like information from reliable sources, and review the limitations that apply in the lighting conditions of your own room.
