GT1080HDR FAQs: Question: Does the Projector output native 4K UHD? Answer: No. The projector can accept a 4K UHD or 4K UHD HDR signal, then output 1080p HDR with a small degree of upscale to 4K UHD. Question: Is Short Throw easy to set up? Answer: Simply place the projector on a flat surface. If the projector is not level, use the vertical keystone function to align the image. Question: My image is not straight or aligned to the screen or wall. How can I fix this? Answer: This means the projector is not resting on a surface that is completely flat and level OR the projection surface is not flat. A Short Throw projector lens is less tolerant of misalignment than standard throw projectors, so projecting from a flat surface will ensure a straighter image. Question: Does this projector support HDR? Answer: Yes, the projector supports HDR10 for stunning white and black levels along with rich cinematic color. HDR is supported on the port marked “HDMI 2.0”. Question: Does the projector support Xbox Series X/S and PS5 along with HDMI 2.1? Answer: The projector supports the Xbox Series X/S and PS5. One HDMI port on the projector is HDMI 2.0 which is backwards compatible with HDMI 2.1. The projector can accept a 4K UHD HDR 60Hz signal, 1440p HDR 60Hz signal, 1080p HDR 60Hz signal -- then output in 1080p HDR 60Hz. If the signal is 1080p HDR 120Hz, the projector will output 1080p HDR 120Hz. 4K UHD 120Hz is not supported. Question: What is the input lag for the projector? Answer: With Enhanced Gaming Mode enabled -- 1080p 60Hz is 16ms and 1080p 120Hz is 8.4ms. Question: Does the projector support 4K UHD 120Hz? Answer: No. The projector supports 1080p 120Hz only. For Optoma’s current lineup of 4K UHD models, visit the True 4K UHD section on the Optoma Brand Store on desertcart. Question: Does the projector support 3D? Answer: Yes. 1080p 3D content is supported in Top/Bottom, Side by Side, Sequential (PC) and Frame Pack (Blu-ray). Question: Where can I buy 3D DLP Link Glasses? Answer: Compatible 3D DLP Link Glasses can be purchased directly from desertcart from brands such as APEMAN and Boblov.

Review: So far, so great, huge bang for buck. - I'm particularly sensitive to any sort of input delay, and even used a high refresh rate camera to try to detect any noticeable delay between my laptop running at 144hz with 1ms delay and this projector. It truly works as advertised, and if used with a PC you'll experience lower input latency than you would with a standard TV (or even a decent gaming monitor) with a console. Picture looks great indoors and outdoors, it really only meets acceptable levels for use outdoors around sunset give or take about 15 minutes depending on where it's being used. Things to know: This is truly an extremely short throw, if you're not using a ceiling mount, you either need a relatively tall and high projector screen or you need to keep it a few inches from the ground. Do not tip the projector itself. This projector puts out a LOT of heat in a relatively short amount of time but does not noticeably increase in heat after the first few minutes. You're going to want an external speaker. I did not buy this intending to use the built-in speaker, and it was not loud enough to easily hear quieter dialogue in movies even while indoors while watching with just one other person. This isn't the most adjustable projector in the world, but again, the bang for your buck is fantastic if you're looking to put in just a little effort making sure you've set it up correctly and keep in mind some of its inherent quirks. You're going to want a ceiling mount for the sake of the device and to use it to its full ability. I don't have one currently because I intend to use it in multiple places and I'm renting my home and can't put one in. For your money, this is probably one of the best all-around projectors, especially if you intend to play games competitively either online or with friends. I've had no problems playing Marvel Vs Capcom, Overwatch, Tekken 7, or Super Smash Bros Ultimate.
Review: Probably the best option under 1000 dollars. - The short throw is excellent for practical purposes. It's very easy to get a decent sized screen around the house. It downscales from 4K to 1080p but thats okay for now, since 4k projectors especially with short throw are limited and very expensive. The 4K input does improve video quality however, and the HDR is awesome to boot. Great lumens, throw distance, and picture quality make this an excellent projector. There are one caveat but at present shouldn't really matter all that much to most people: HDR will not work in 120hz Game mode. For me this is okay, as 60Hz is good enough for me in HDR, as most console titles max out at 60fps anyway.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this optoma gt1080hdr projector play 2d movies in 3d?**
A: YES!!!.........you have to be smart enough to look for conversion software, dont listen to everything you read on the comments and do some research for yourself, dont listen to this either, do your own research.  NVIDIA vision, AiseeSoft, etc there are a few ways to do this with several different setups.

**Q: Are you able to view this projector in a daylight room, such as a business meeting? Or does it need to be viewed in a dimly lit room?**
A: Honestly. All projectors should be used in a dim lit room. It depends on size of image. You want a 60" or 120". 120" no 60" i think you could get away with it.

A: Dear Optoma Customer,

We measure our projector's brightness in ANSI Lumens, the GT1080HDR is rated at 3800 lumens. If you have any further questions, please contact Optoma technical support at 888-289-6786 Monday - Friday 6 AM - 5 PM PST for further assistance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unbelievable picture quality and brightness
*by W***S on August 15, 2020*

One of the most important things to know imo is that you cannot use keystone, zoom, image shift or edge masking while you have "enhanced gaming" mode turned on. This means you must physically place this projector in the perfect position in pretty much every way including height, in order to get a perfect rectangle picture (with enhanced gaming on). All that being said, this is an incredible projector if none of the above is an issue for you. Before this, I had a "Dr J" projector that I picked up for like $80 and as you can imagine, it didn't look great but I've used it for months and it was a good bit of fun, but this easily looks 10x better than that, no exaggeration. This projector looks every bit as good as my 4 year old flat screen tv, even when it's blown up over 200 inches ( I ran out of wall to go bigger). Right now I'm just projecting on a normal painted textured wall in a living room with a very large window so just some cheap blinds controlling the ambient light and even with that it has outstanding quality. I would submit pictures or video but my phone is far lower quality than this projector and would only make this look worse than it does in reality. Sound works well enough but isn't loud. The remote works great and doesn't need to be aimed at anything to work. I'll never buy a tv again. Never.
