Great projector, but have had mixed results
on October 5, 2015

I really do like the projector itself. The fan is quiet, and the picture is great. I have had a few issues though. The magic remote stopped working the first week. The app store has some of the top apps absent for this device. Example: Hulu Plus, Crackle are not compatible. Many other apps also say "Sorry, this app is not compatible with your device." This is even after firmware updates. Tech support was not much help with the apps.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I researched projectors and for a month and almost decided to go with the viewsonic pjd5533w which is has a 6000 hour lamp life and great pic. I plan on keeping this thing for years so the 30000 hour bulb rating for the pa77u had me sold - I was just worried about the brightness. Well, it is plenty bright enough to my surprise! The picture is absolutely terrific no matter what your watching - TV, blue ray, netflix, hulu. I didn't care too much about the smart features til I actually got this thing set up and now I find that I use them all the time. My 1080p TV pic was not as good as this - I'll probably never go with a regular TV again!

All in one portable TV

Before buying these projector, I considered almost all LED projects available in the market and LG PA77U was the best value for price considering all the features it has including LG Smart TV and built in TV tuner capability. For me, I am using it instead of TV and it does a good job at it. Since it is only 700 lumen, don't expect it to be bright during the afternoon when windows are open but it performs exceptional under normal dark envirnment (i.e. after sunset and windows open or with small lights on). Colors are really saturated and brilliant compared to other projectors i have seen.
Only thing that bothers me is it doesn't have Bluetooth connectivity for connecting speaker or sound bar other than LG's sound bar with Sound SYNC and that is why it took me a month to buy these projector otherwise I would have bought it earlier but it is NOT a show stopper, everything else in these projector makes up for it but I would love to see LG projector with Bluetooth connectivity for external speaker/sound bar.
It is not difficult to use at all but it does take some time for 'LOADING'. Its web browser is kind of slow, also other apps such as youtube and amazon prime also takes some time to load but keep in mind that these is not an i7/16gb/SSD computer.
Also, my projector is little doesn't produce complete horizontal image it is slightly inclined (may be 5 degree) but a small folded piece of paper underneath one of the leg solved the problem.
it has 2x3W speaker and one can't expect much from it. So consider buying sound bar/external speaker if you are a music lover with all those bass and loud music.
overall, if anybody is looking for an LED projector to replace a TV and somebody who watches TV just in the evening, these is the way to go.
Pros: easy to use, Features/Settings

Amazing product

Before i bought this projector I was debating on getting a T.V or a projector, but after having done some research I went for a projector. I found this projector that had a lot of features already built in like 3D and 2D to 3D conversion which would cost much more on regular TVs. The projector is a smart tv, so it has applications to use like Netflix and Hulu, with the built Wifi it is amazing. I can use my android phone and send videos over to the projector through youtube and be able to build a playlist, the projector says maximum size of 100" but I am pushing it to 180" and it looks extremely clear. I highly recommend this projector it is portable and even comes with its own carrying bag.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

I was pleasantly wowed/surprised and hooked

l looked at several products before buying, and found a store with a really nice display setup. The bulb type projector was in the 2k-3k range, projecting from a ceiling mount onto a 120 inch auto screen, and looked really bad. I had no demo for the LG LED type, but for the price, it could not be much worse. The LG LED projector offers 30k hours bulb life compared to 5k [expensive replacement bulb] for the other one. I found the setup easy, and projected onto a lime green wall. l was totally blown away, the size, picture quality was amazing, even in daylight. I have 3D content from my cable box, bought DLP ready glasses and wow 3D on 100 inch picture. I also enjoy surfing the web big screen, while watching picture in picture tv, no more squinting. The smart tv is great, and smart remote beats all virtual typing. I also took it on vacation, connected to the RF and enjoyed, even non HD tv looked good. There are apps, netflix, amazon, so the rainy vacation days were better. I don't know what took me so long and I am totally hooked.

Superb projector for an amazing value!

Cost friendly, smart tv included, 3D capabilities, Bluetooth and Internet. You can't pass on that.
Active Duty military here, my room became the instant chill spot once I purchased this projector.
Lighting wise the room doesn't have to be too too dark but for a vivid picture, a blacked out room gives better quality.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

Very much delighted

I wanted to buy a big screen TV at 65-75" range and also wanted to take the TV overseas. Well, that will be too big to carry so I opted for a projector instead. After reading the excellent reviews of this model, I decided to try it myself. Wow, I was amazed. The Blue Ray movie I played was very very sharp at 75-80" diagonal. I tried the HDTV antenna and I got my 'TV' as well from such a small lightweight projector.
