Epson 980 Reviews

So far it is excellent!

By Eddy de

I researched carefully and felt this projector best fit my overall needs. Indeed it preformed flawlessly, delivering a bright beautiful picture for a couple of outdoor events. The only shortcoming is it does not have built in Bluetooth which would be nice to easily connect it to external speakers. So 4 and a half stars.
