The Bottom Line Except for its budget price, HP has manufactured the iPod of projectors: a distinctively designed unit with decent performance that keeps things simple. The new chip in Samsung's SP-A900B helps it to outperform every projector in its class, including its step-down Joe Kane-designed brother, and to compete favorably against significantly more-expensive three-chip DLP projectors. The best value in front projection in its class, the Optoma HD72 is a surprisingly good performer at a ridiculously low price. The Samsung SP-A800B delivers the most accurate color of any projector we've tested, and as a whole it outperforms every projector in its price range.
