Visual Specs
The Optoma UHD60 True 4K UHD Projector uses the 0.66-inch version of TI’s 4K DLP chips. Although, it has only 2716 x 1528 mirrors but by moving the mirrors really fast, the chip is said to achieve full 4K resolution. It comes with a color wheel of 5 segments (RGBCY).It offers great additional features, such as Optoma’s Pure Motion. It helps to provide more smoothness and flow to your content and works pretty well on UHD60.
It also provides the Ultra Detail feature which further enhances the perceived sharpness and detail. For black level performance, the projector has the Dynamic Black feature which uses the lamp dimming technique to provide lower black levels. Some additional features include the Optoma’s BrilliantColor feature with multiple settings, Pure Color and Pure Contrast.
The picture quality of UHD60 is brilliant. The brightness and color contrast is amazing, along with exceptional details and sharpness. The picture quality is quiet engaging out of the box but you might want to change a few settings according to your requirements and taste. If you are bothered by the noise of the projector, try turning off the Ultra Resolution which is set to 1 by default from a scale of 0 to 3, which will help to reduce the noise.
Looking at the out of the box HDR performance of the projector, it will impress many; Projectorpoint. The picture looks stunning, along with providing excellent color balance and contrast, the picture gives the natural feel. You might want to stick with HDR picture mode to have the best possible outcome for HDR.
You will find a lengthy list of picture preset modes which works very well, the highlighted ones are Cinema for standard dynamic range content, HDR mode for obviously HDR and Game preset for minimizing input lag for gaming.
The game picture preset works fine in reducing the input lag but not sufficient for some fast-paced games and could hinder your experience. So generally it provides good gaming experience unless you are a serious gamer and can’t tolerate smallest of the lags in fast-paced games.
Some of the limitations in terms of its visual specs are that the Optoma UHD60 True 4K UHD Projector is not 3D compatible. The other issue is with its Bright mode which provides the most brightness outcome but it is tilted towards green and due to this reason will be useless for many users unless they don’t mind that greenish picture. As I have already mentioned above, the Ultra Resolution feature increases the noise especially in HDR and you might want to turn it off. As a DLP projector you might be affected with rainbow artifacts if you are too sensitive to it; Hometheaterreview.
