Viewing Experience
Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-W01 Projector:
Once set up, the viewing experience is quite impressive. The projector delivers a bright image even in daylight, and the color accuracy and contrast are commendable, especially for a device in this price range. I managed to optimize the settings to 1080p at 50Hz and found the results to be stunning, with no noticeable latency while streaming media. The Zoom feature allows for convenient adjustments to the image size, but it's important to note that it refers to enlarging the display area rather than video conferencing capabilities.HAPPRUN Projector:
The viewing experience with the HAPPRUN projector has been nothing short of impressive. With 1000 ANSI lumens, the brightness is more than adequate for both dark and moderately-lit environments, ensuring that colors are vibrant and the picture remains sharp. Watching movies outdoors under starry skies or cozy evenings indoors felt cinematic, with the 4K support enhancing the overall quality. While the built-in speakers are decent for casual use, I found that pairing it with a Bluetooth speaker significantly amplified the sound, creating an immersive atmosphere perfect for movie nights or gaming sessions.Features

System Experience
Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-W01 Projector:
Setting up the projector can be a mixed bag. While I found it straightforward to connect my Amazon Fire TV Stick via HDMI, the initial configuration took some trial and error, especially with network settings. Disabling AP Isolation on my router was necessary to access Wi-Fi, which is not built-in as initially advertised but can be achieved with an add-on. I appreciated the ability to mirror my Samsung phone seamlessly, but the lack of guided tutorials for LAN features and the need for external devices for streaming services can be cumbersome for less tech-savvy users.HAPPRUN Projector:
Setting up this projector was an absolute breeze, taking just minutes to get everything running. The intuitive interface guided me through the process effortlessly, and the AI-powered auto-focus and auto-keystone correction worked like a charm. It was amazing to see how quickly the projector adjusted for a sharp and perfectly aligned image without any manual tweaking on my part. The WiFi setup was straightforward, and I had no issues connecting various devices, whether it was my smartphone, laptop, or streaming stick, allowing me to dive right into my favorite content.Conclusion
