Well I just wanted some in put on the 470 Vankyo projector I'm using one with a 200 and screen the picture is exquisite and I had it on since I bought it last year and it still looks as I just purchased it new I run it as a television and I run it 24 hours a day I was just wondering if anybody else out there impressed by this projector I don't feel I was being rude at all.
Nobody who has seen a quality projector would rate anything like this as good.
This will sound rude, but it needs to be a reality check that you don't know what you are talking about on this subject.
Not that the Vankyo doesn't project an image, but to call it 'outstanding' or 'same quality' is just showing how uninformed you are.
For starters, the resolution is 1280x720 - which is 720p standard resolution. It isn't 1080p or 4K which is the current specification. So, while you may get acceptable details, there is a lot which you aren't getting and is being thrown away, especially at larger image sizes. Especially when they are using transmissive single LCD panel projection.
The brightness is NOWHERE NEAR 4,000 ANSI lumens. It's a BS number. A lie. Since you don't know what you are looking at, how to measure lumens, or anything else, you are happy to pass on their lie as truth, in complete confidence with your bad information. The reality is that a top of the line, cutting edge, LED projector from BenQ, which has the highest rated brightness output on the market, puts out less than 3,000 ansi lumens, on a $1,500 projector.
Vankyo has right on the product page that this model is 120 lumens. So, that 4,000 lumen number was BS. Take a look at their updated specifications if you don't want to believe me..

It's right there. 120 lumens.
Now, this ignores the rest of the issues which the projector has as well...
Bad image uniformity across the screen.
Weak contrast.
Poor black levels.
Weak color saturation.
Poor image processing.
I'm not saying it doesn't work. I'm not saying it doesn't produce a price appropriate image. It does. If someone is using it in a play room to show a movie for the kids, then that's great. But, this isn't a home theater projector. The image quality compared to even an entry level projector like the BenQ HT2050a is significantly worse. Bad even. The jump in quality to a reputable name-brand model from a major manufacturer, especially one designed for home theater, is astounding.
There are plenty of reviews out there which put models like this to the test and compare them to each other and may even mention how they stack up against a entry level 1080p or 4K model.
Here's a good one for you to take a look at...
