Review: Great projector! - It's a really good projector if you want a huge screen. I get a 190" picture that covers my whole wall from 7' distance, and this is priceless. It also provides a great contrasty HDR. Better than some other DLP projectors I tried, and very close to my 4K HDR DisplayHDR 600 certified 32" screen. It does need some tuning though. I have a yellowish drywall. It's not a dedicated screen, low gain, so my settings are: Brightness: 5, Contrast: 9, Sharpness: 9, Color: 50, HDR/HLG: Auto, HDR Picture Mode: Bright, HDR Strength: 9, Brightness Mode: Bright, BrilliantColor: 10 I also tuned colors a little to negate yellow tint of my 'screen': Color Temperature: D75, Wall Color: Off, Red: -6 13 18, Cyan: 10 0 20, Yellow: -19 3 15, Magenta: 21 0 20. Don't forget to switch on 10 bit on your source too (I have Fire Stick 4K). And if you're on Apple TV switch Chroma to 4:2:2 (makes a huge difference, but you also need an HDMI 2.1 cable) It took me quite some time to figure out those, maybe it helps others. What I like about the picture that it gives you a depth sense. I tried some other brands, picture looked too flat. And even before tuning colors I liked its color reproduction. 5 stars, I really enjoy watching 4K/2160p movies on it. The games look great too, haven't tried Gaming mode, only using 4K/60fps and it's working out even for really hard and fast pacing games like Returnal (using Moonlight streaming over a gigabit ethernet). The cons are: slow menu (not a big deal), bad contrast out of the box, picture little darker than 3,600 Lumens.
Review: UHD35STX: Disappointed - Disappointed with the Product and Extremely Poor Customer Support I was initially satisfied with the UHD35STx projector — it worked well for about 20 days. However, it soon started showing display issues, with constant green and red lines appearing at the bottom of the screen initially adjusted after turning on game mode on/off Shortly after, the projector began making loud noises, even when in Eco mode. Sometimes, it would make a sudden, blast-like sound when shutting down, which was alarming. I reached out to desertcart support, but the experience was extremely frustrating. They only focused on the return window and offered no real help or solutions. Despite the listing claiming “product support included,” there is absolutely no meaningful support provided. I’m currently not satisfied with this product and extremely disappointed with the overall customer support experience

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3 years on and it’s great!
*by S***N on July 27, 2026*

Bought this nearly 3 years ago and I’ve got 3447 hours on the lamp in bright mode. Still works perfectly! Naturally I’m getting close to having to replace the lamp soon but that’s with any projector. Would highly recommend it!
