When choosing a bedroom projector, the price range of two to three thousand is the preferred choice for most users. Recently, many users have been puzzled when selecting products, wondering how to choose between traditional projectors and smart projectors. Today, let's talk about Epson EF-15W compared to Dangbei D6X, the collision between traditional and smart, and who is the ultimate choice for a bedroom projector.

3LCD vs. DLP: Which is the best projection display technology?

Buying a projector is all about brightness, and what affects brightness is the light source and display technology. Epson EF-15W uses 3LCD technology with a lamp light source, commonly known as a "lamp projector." This traditional projector offers high brightness but has a shorter lifespan. Over time, the lumens decrease with prolonged use, requiring replacement of the lamp for continued usage.

Overall, DLP technology today tends to outperform 3LCD technology.

When it comes to image quality, the traditional and smart projectors, who does a better job?

Looking at the Epson EF-15W projector, known for its high brightness but utilizing 3LCD display technology, the image may exhibit larger pixel grids, noticeable graininess at close range, color banding issues during online movie playback, possibly due to resolution, and insufficient image sharpness.

This combination effectively eliminates the original speckle issues of tricolor lasers, resulting in exceptionally pure color tuning. The displayed image quality is remarkably pristine, devoid of any flaws, while also maintaining rich details in both bright and dark areas. The overall picture is authentic and vivid, without any distortion in color rendition. S85dd3a8f-2555-4deb-8ebd-5b745784a58a.jpg The smoothness of the system is also part of the experience.

As we all know, traditional projectors lack a system, but the Epson EF-15W this time comes with built-in Tencent Aurora TV. With a configuration of 2+16GB memory capacity, it finally supports software installation. However, in practical testing, even with the installation of a B station, it already feels laggy. Moreover, the system's smoothness is not very high. It's more accurate to say that it's the Tencent Aurora TV application software being used rather than the system itself.

In addition to the original full network resource support, it boasts smooth performance. This time, it also features quick life functions, supporting the automatic startup of any software at boot, as well as the ability to adjust brightness and volume simultaneously when opening a specific application, offering intelligent shortcuts.

The D6X by Dangbei features an integrated flexible cloud platform. By simply flipping the body, it can achieve a wide 225° projection angle, allowing for more freedom in projection. It is highly portable, easy to carry with just one hand, and takes up minimal space. Introducing the industry-first "AI Dynamic Screen" with a size of 6.95 inches, potentially larger than your smartphone screen. It supports various interactive functions. For instance, when you want music to accompany you at home, just tap the music section on the dynamic screen to see dynamic floating lyrics that are very eye-catching. Additionally, the "Time Album" function helps you preserve unforgettable moments with your family, playing them back continuously to bring a warm memory experience!

With improved image quality, stronger configuration, and more features, this type of projector is the top choice for bedroom projection.
