" ... I was leaning towards my next TV being UHD/4K, in the 70-90" range, but every time I looked around at the HDR/Dolby vision capable ones, OLEDs from LG, SUHD from Samsung and Sony models, I suffered severe sticker shock at the $2000-$7000+ prices! ... While the UHD/4k/HDR flat panel TVs will give you the best contrast, blacks and detail, for the price, they will never offer the same return on investment as this Optoma HD27 on my 120" screen that I ended up going with! ... I had one of the earlier 720P Panasonic 3-LCD projectors about 10 years ago (2006), which at the time, was one of the most popular home theater projectors, going for $1500-$2000 range. ... Now we have these 1080P DLP models with 25,000 contrast ratios at amazing low prices! ... Coming from that previous projector to this one, the higher 1080P resolution, colors, and contrast ratio is more than enough to keep me happy. ... Unless you are sitting less than 6 feet from the screen, you won't miss the detail that a 4K version offers. ... My previous TV purchase was in 2009 for a Samsung 1080P Plasma flat screen. ... "
