CNET Editors' Review

The good: Brighter than advertised; high contrast ratio; runs quietly; rugged carrying case.

The bad: Limited grayscale range; runs hot; short one-year warranty; no speaker, zoom lens, or laser pointer.

The bottom line: The Dell 2100MP is our favorite budget portable SVGA projector, but we'd like to see cooler performance and a longer warranty.

Review: The Dell 2100MP is a compact and lightweight SVGA projector that marries a full complement of basic features with good overall performance. Traveling business types will appreciate its 4.1-pound heft, rugged carrying case, small remote control, and image brightness. Home users will love its exceptionally quiet fan, great contrast, and component video cable. And everyone will love its low, $1,299 price tag (Dell often runs promotions that push the price even lower). The only things lacking are a speaker and a laser pointer.

The Dell 2100MP is a compact and lightweight SVGA projector that marries a full complement of basic features with good overall performance. Traveling business types will appreciate its 4.1-pound heft, rugged carrying case, small remote control, and image brightness. Home users will love its exceptionally quiet fan, great contrast, and component video cable. And everyone will love its low, $1,299 price tag (Dell often runs promotions that push the price even lower). The only things lacking are a speaker and a laser pointer.

The Dell 2100MP deviates from the traditional boxlike projector design with a stylish curved, silver-and-gray case. The size is about average for a portable projector, measuring 10.2 by 8.5 by 3.5 inches (W, D, H). At 4.1 pounds, it's one of the lightest in its class.

Its overall traveling weight is also one of the lightest in its class. The excellent carrying case has a hard-plastic exterior lined with plenty of foam. An outside pocket accommodates any cables you might need. With the projector inside and a typical assortment of cables in the pocket, the total package weighs just 5.3 pounds.
