Bright, clean image, Good level of detail with a vivid colour balance, Smooth motion
Not the last word in subtlety, The slightly hard edge to the sound can be tiring
There's plenty to love about the HD25: it's an easygoing and pleasant watch with plenty of features for its affordable £800. Yes, it could do with a touch more insight, but it's an enjoyable projector nonetheless. See all our projector Best Buys Follo...
Superb 3D with no crosstalk, Highly accurate colours (average Delta E = 2.7), Very little rainbow effect
Noisy fan, No lens shift, No motion interpolation, 3D glasses and RF emitter not included, Grey shading too cold/blue: 8,110 kelvins

Great sound in a small package, Highly portable, Exceptionally bright
Runs pretty hot
When I originally read the specs for the Optoma HD25-LV, I was skeptical that a sub-$1,000 projector could manage to handle a 3,200 lumen brightness rating all while actually looking good at the same time.But, thanks to the BrilliantColor color engine, so...
Abstract: We're no strangers to Optoma projectors. Today I'm looking at the HD25 and the HD25LV-two 3D 1080p models that just came to market. We've reviewed the HD65, the HD20, the HD72...and the HD33 among others. That last model came out a couple years ago and...
