Great reference colour reproduction, Vertical lens shift, Silent
Low brightness, Poor audio, No horizontal lens shift
The Optoma UHD65 is leading the charge for budget 4K HDR projectors. It sports a clean and classy design, and runs quite silent. One place where it falls short is the brightness of the lamp which could certainly have been in the 3,000 lumens range for the...

Abstract: If you're looking for a big-screen cinematic experience, the Optoma UHD65 is a great place to start. A single chip 4K DLP projector, it's relatively compact (at 498(w) x 331(d) x 141(h)mm), so you can pop it on a shelf or coffee table for casual use, or c...
Only vertical lens shift, No motorised focus/zoom, Not as bright as expected, Basic user interface
The UHD65 is a hugely enjoyable projector that manages to deliver very good images in both ambient light and blackout conditions. Most projectors commit to one or the other, halving their versatility. Though the UHD65 sacrifices both ultra-high brightness...
Overall, the Optoma UHD65 is a cracking 4K projector, albeit not without flaws. Our advice is to take its HDR compatibility with a pinch of salt, and bathe in the luxurious detail of its big-screen 2160p images...
Impressive level of detail, Good range of colours, Handles movement nicely, Upscales HD and SD films well,
Dark scenes could be more detailed, SDR to HDR conversion best avoided,
Considering our current favourite projector at this price point, the Sony VPL-HW65ES, is neither 4K- nor HDR-compatible, those looking for a top-notch projector should give the Optoma UHD65 serious consideration.It may not have all the bells and whistles...
Full 4K UHD HDR compatibility, Faux 4K performance is very good, Excellent sharpness thanks to single chip, Accurate colours to Rec.709, Full calibration controls, 21dB fan noise, Manual lens shift, Good motion, Good image processing, Good brightness and
Poor black levels and shadow detail performance in bat cave conditions, No wide colour, Can look expensive compared to competition, No motorised lens memory functionality
The Optoma UHD65 is a first generation 4K DLP projector and comes to a market where there is plenty of tough competition. If you have a dedicated cinema room and want the best projected image possible in normal HD and 4K HDR with wide colour, then there a...

Crisp, vibrant picture, Smooth playback for movies and gaming, Quiet fan operation, Reasonably priced, HDR support
Odd occasional source issue, Not widely available for purchase
The Optoma UHD65 is a fantastic 4K HDR projector with clear, crisp, bright colours. Sound aside, this projector is great for anyone who wants to watch movies or game on a large screen.*We were sent a review unit of the Optoma UHD65 4K UHD projector for th...
Superb resolution in HD and UHD, Effective HDR for a projector, Affordable price
Poor contrast and black level, HDR color banding
If pure picture quality with 1080p standard dynamic range will dominate your viewing, there are better options out there at this price and lower. But most of them can't accept a 4K input, won't provide a reasonable facsimile of high dynamic range, and don...
Even if you were to take 4K out of the mix entirely, Optoma's UHD65 DLP projector would be a highly compelling option in the front projection market. For $2,500, it offers a theater-worthy level of performance that rivals some pricier projectors, serving...
