The Bottom Line Consider the ViewSonic PJ501 if you're looking for a very bright projector and a long warranty. The BenQ SL705S may travel lightly, but it offers disappointing performance for the price. 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.
