ViewSonic PX749
Best high brightness projector for dedicated console gamers and movie fans.
This is a rare projector that treats gaming as a first-class citizen, delivering ultra-low latency and high refresh rates that usually require a dedicated monitor. It sacrifices the absolute color precision of a dedicated home cinema unit, but gains the versatility to dominate both movie nights and competitive console sessions.
