With a fresh look, new features, and glossy panels, you can’t go wrong with the Dell M209X projector. Weighing just 2.6 pounds, this ultra-portable device really outshines the competition with 2000 Lumens, including HDMI input ports and DLP imaging engines that use BrilliantColor technology. According to the reviewer, “On our lab tests, the M209X did quite well. Its brightness score of 2125 Lumens was refreshingly above its advertised value of 2000. Thanks to its DLP technology, the contrast ratio was equally impressive, at 640:1—although well below the 1800:1 claim. Unfortunatly, Dell’s new color-handling technology wasn’t very effective: Yellow shades were still dull and mustard-like, similar to other DLP projectors such as the InFocus IN15.” On the upside, the lamp is claimed by Dell to last 3,000 hours, and 5,000 in low-power mode. The verdict on this gadget is that it’s worth the price at $999 because not only does the image quality perform nicely, but it is more portable, better contrast, and has a shorter cooldown time.
