TV vs Projector - The Experience

2016-06-10
this is the Epson TW 5350 a projector that Epson sent me to make videos on so I sat down and asked myself what kind of videos could I make about this thing so what I usually do is I create a review video but trust me guys you would not like that both because I am NOT an expert on these kinds of things and who watches a projector review anyway so I asked my fellow Twitter followers and they suggested that I make a comparison video between the experience of using a projector versus a normal TV so here's my take on that so starting off the Epson projector is using the three LCD technology for its projection system which can output up to Full HD which is 1920 by 1080 in a 16 by 9 aspect ratio the projector also has active 3d which is nice it retails for about 800 bucks the TV is from Samsung and it's a mid to low range 4k TV this is what I believe most people are looking at when buying a 4k TV because it retails for about 850 bucks which is somewhat affordable so which one of these gets you the best experience in terms of standalone features the TV wins by a longshot why because it's a smart TV you will get the ability to watch YouTube and Netflix and listen to Spotify and all that jazz out of the box no external device is needed the projector on the other hand only has connecting to Wi-Fi and screen mirroring which is awesome by itself but I never even got it to work you'll have to get something like the Apple TV or the Nvidia shield TV if you want the same feature set as the normal Smart TV and both of those go for about 200 bucks although with the shield TV you can stream games from your PC to the projector and play games in console mode which is pretty damn sick when it comes to viewing experience it really depends on if you've had a projector before or not if you haven't you'll find the projector pretty darn cool but of course that feeling is going to wear out after a couple of weeks so going completely tactical which one of these gives you the best viewing experience it depends on when and where you're watching if you're using the projector in the dark it will look awesome but it's hard to beat the TV's vibrant colors and more poppy image so if you're having a hard time choosing between a TV and a projector go for the projector if you want a more theater East experience but that comes with the cost of needing to buy things like the Apple TV and those kinds of streaming devices but on the other hand if you want things to just work and look good just go with the TV you can't really go wrong here thanks for watching make sure to smash that like button if you enjoy the video also please subscribe as that helps me out a lot and I'll see you guys in the next one peace
