This looks amazing! I've been contemplating a projector for a while and this might be it! Thanks as always for the quality content and love the Tribe Called Quest in the background!

Awesome shirt, great review. I've had the 5050 for a while and am in love with it and it's good to hear that you agree. I would love Epson to up the resolution another step for some extra sharpness but to maintain all the other good stuff about LCD projector technology.

Excellent review! Very comprehensive and well composed! Been looking at this projector for awhile and this gave me great info!

I was concerned about the sharpness, but I sit 17 feet away from a 150in screen. I got the projector and it’s awesome. Sharpness at my seating is perfect. It’s bright and colors are awesome. Highly recommended it

Hey Chris, thank you for the review I really appreciate all your advice as I'm getting my own HT set up :)

Another another great Epson review thank you very much.

What a great review man ! Thanks

Thanks for this review! Just got mine today. Also liked the Check The Rhime backing track.

Great review Chris. I really like how you demonstrated lens shift and lens memory. Very slick. I’ve been very pleased with my 5040UB. One thing I wish it has was auto switching between 16:9 and 2.35:1 presets like my previous Panasonic AE8000u had. Keep up the great work.

Love the video! Can’t wait for mine to arrive!

Amazing review and video, love the shirt.

Nice to see you finally getting your hands on some Epsons.

I don't know anything about projectors and I do watch a lot of KZread. I just am new to projectors. I watch a lot of gamers, Nexus, derbauer, etc for computers so I've never run across this channel. I liked and subscribed immediately. I love the way your content flows. You have a great voice and the script or bullet points that you followed was excellent. I will definitely be back.

Thanx again. This the one I am going to get💪🏼👍🏻

Have to agree, this projector is a beast. Just purchased it, have been trying to fault to see if I needed to move to a JVC nx5 or nx7, but seriously there is no reason. The 4k it produces is sharp and the lens zoom goes a little further at 2.1. Add to this the low lag for gaming and this projector is a beast! This guy is going to eat the competition. It might not be as good as a nx5, but it doesn't need to when it's half the price and gets you 90% there! Seems like 4k projector are finally starting to become mainstream, no longer a need to pay 15k for a good one!

Great review, as always. I’ve loved getting to learn about projectors form your channel man, thank you! You remind me of the best that TechTV had to offer back in the day!

Great review!!

Excellent video man! Thanks for the review. They are currently building my house and I have been looking for a 4K projector that makes movies look great and also has low input lag for when I game. If you have any suggestions for another one let me know. But for now this one is on the top of my list.

VERY nice review! Adding this one to my list of projectors to upgrade to this year!! Keep it up! Love my current Epson projector so its really nice seeing the midrange line is that good!

One of the best reviews for this Projector yet Good work dude

Can you set it up on a sitting couch level on the side, and yet expect a good projection on the wall? Also, would it work with AppleTv?

Just got myself a 6050ub, upgraded from the 6040ub. Love it.

Chris, thank you for these videos!!!!! I’m currently building my home theater and your content has helped me make some very important decisions.

Hey Chris, I have the 6040UB, are you able to share your calibration settings, i have a 133 inch screen and would be good to see how your settings compare against the defaults

Great video!

@Chris Majestic when zoomed in to cinemascope with the 5050ub, how can I hide the light bleed on top and bottom of my fixed project screen? Any ideas?

I'm upgrading from my dinosaur epson home cinema 720 and this is one of top contenders I'm looking at. Question I have is what is the sharpness difference between this and the uhd60 or uhd51a? Is there a perceivable difference from 14ft away?

Because of you I picked up the Benq HT2050 in 2018 as my very first projector and was blown away with how good a projector image could be. I’ve just purchased the Epson 5050ub and I’m completely confident I’ve made the right choice because of you (doesn’t come in for another two weeks)

I have the 2050 as well, was the upgrade worth it to you? I'm thinking of picking up a 5050UB but only if it's noticeably better.

Hi Chris! I've been loving my 6050 for about a year now. Is there a clear way of activating low latency mode? I'm just assuming it's changing image processing from fine to fast? Keep up the great work 🔥

What are the best settings for this projector? I can’t find a video on this. I would appreciate any help, thanks!

What screen would people recommend for this projector in a low-medium ambient light situation? Thinking between Elite cinegrey 5d or SI Slate.

Any recommendations for a screens material suitable for this projector? White gray or ALR, thanks for the review

*Love my **Bestt.Digital** projector. It’s the perfect size for a bedroom and it’s super easy to setup. It works great with a firestick. I would highly recommend it.*

Great review! I have the 6050UB and it is simply amazing. I also have a 135" screen.

If I connect my xbox series x to this directly, how do I get audio to my receiver? no spdif or audio out? I want to avoid getting a 4k receiver and put 4k xbox straight to the projector

My ceiling is 7 feet. I need 95 inch size. What distance do i hock this up. My sitting area is 12 feet from screen. If it is noisy then I may have a problem. What do you think.

Chris - Can I buy a black screen with this projector ? Was planning to buy the 150 inch Elite Screen Manual. The black screen is cheaper than the white screen currently.

Love your review,are short throw projectors images equivalent to this?

I found that with the Bright Cinema setting, I’m able to run my 6050 on eco power.

Can i connect this projector to my sound bar using HDMI or does this projector need a receiver to get sound?

Hi Chris. I can't find comparison between Epson EB-L400U and Epson 6050UB for home theater. Could you tell something about it? (black levels, HDR?, absence of "4K" resolution, laser technology advantages) Thanks.

Hello. i will like to know if you can help me out with my Epson 8350 projector with it's having display issues. the images is faded out or wash off and the colors aren't there and it only shows a light blue and white tone, even for the main menu.

Helli Chris, thank you for reviewing this projector. great video. but I have question about lense memory. do epson 5050ub had lense memory? like 16:9 for one and 2.35:1 ? so I can watch Netflix movies full screen without black line up and down or sports videos full. and also what about first person shooter games like Call of duty on this projector? can u suggest a projector or some projectors I can choose from? epson 5050 is 3800 CAD, which is affordable.. thanks in advance.

Just installed an Epson 5050UB in my basement. Hands down, best projector under $3k. Black levels are very good and lots of color brightness for sports viewing with some lights on.

Chris can i use this Epson for the outside, with a 140 screen

I purchased this projector ( but 5050Ube) based off of your review more than others. Now I'm undecided on what screen I should get. It's between an Elite Cinegrey edgeless 150" or a screen from Seymour Av. Any suggestions?? Have you used Seymour Av Screens? Their assembly is very easy compared to other high quality screens..

can I put firestick 4k on it ?? and what screen protector do u recommend for wide screen ...I seen your Amazon Elite screen demo.

I have the 5040 bit o find the hdr unwatchable... Not sure if its the settings or limitations of the projector

I bought this projector a few months ago and about to set it up in my basement, I do have a question which I can't seem to find an answer for. Does the lens shift affect the image (whether in focus, shape or brightness), I wouldn't lens shift a lot but let's say up to 50% horizontal? Also it'll be installed in a light controlled basement, but wouldn't always watch it in the dark necessarily, any ideas what screen color or type I should get? Looking for 120" Thank you in advance.

Which one would you pick the vava ust or this epson 5050?

Personally if you had a mildly big room but only enough room for a 90-100 inch screen would you buy this or the optoma P1 if budget wasn't an issue

Hi I have epson 1080 Home cinema wich scrreen it's better for pictures quality you can Help me please thank you.

How many feet away is your lens from the wall? I am getting conflicting numbers. Epson say 13.32ft and Projector Central says almost 17 feet for a 135' inch screen

Just got it. Super happy with the movies but on my PS4 games, the image is not smooth enough. Could you help me to get the best settings for gaming please ?

As a Epson 5050ube owner, curious if anyone has replaced the bulb in theirs? And if so which bulb did you get. Epsons site is forever out of stock. Just past the 1 year mark of owning it. I absolutely love this projector. Zero regrets purchasing, but unfortunately mine started to show white dots, but only on certain films. So far only 3. But gotta send it in.

How can I center my epson 4010 to fit the screen It is way to big the projector image

So because this uses pixelshift technology, does it matter if your signal is sending 4K vs 1080p? Other than for HDR?

Majestic, how would you compare this projector with the Sony 295 ES?

@Chris Majestic -Is your link to the Epson 5050UB an affiliate link, i.e. a paid link? Thank you.

Buying - awesome review What would be best screen for it. Also, mounting and is it upside down while mounted? Can you comment on the wireless Epson 5050 ube? How can wireless be a good or bad option? Thank you

Could epson be coming out with a new versionn of 5050ub that actually does full 4k (pixel shifting ). I want to get the 5050 but have a feeling they might come out with a newer version soon.

Can it be placed at 10 feet for a 102 inch screen?

Hey how do I enable game mode on the 5050ub? I don't see a setting for it

Hello dude! Love your reviews. I was wondering if you can advise which will be the best option. An optoma uhd38 (which is the best available in Amazon) or an xgimi horizon pro. I have a budget of about $1400. I'd like a short through, not ultra short. And the better 4k image quality. Thanks dude!

Hi Chris, what are the differences between this projector and the 5050ube?

Do you have a video for comparison between Epson 5050 and Sony 295?

Hey Chris would you buy a refurbished epson 6040 for $1600 or is the 5050 that much better?

Is this the lowest priced projector with lens memory for different aspect ratios?

Love your content! I currently have a BenQ 2050a and have been extremely happy with it. I just moved to a new home and due to the BenQ's throw distance and the limitation of screen size this will no longer work. I have a 100" ALR fixed screen. The projector can be mounted anywhere between 13' 6" - 13' 1". So looking for a new projector. Looks like the Epson 4010 will work using projector centrals calculator. I am looking for a projector in the $1000-$1500 range. Room is not dark and no plans to paint it. It's a multipurpose room and just looking to enjoy movies and streaming content with the kids.

Could you test the image quality with the 1.03 firmware? It is supposed to enhance the image quality when watching movie content.

Hey Chris, super job as always. What are your thoughts on the 6050ub, the same as the 5050? Also how about the new Epson ls12000. Any thoughts here.

How is the 3d performance? Do you have ghosting issues like the previous model?

Is it only for US market? Can't find it anywhere in EU and Russia.

Looking for help guys, how would this compare to the optoma uhd50x otherwise known as und42 in Europe for gameing, the optoma would be half the price, would this excel the optoma or could the optoma potentially be better for 4k gameing

That shirt is 🔥🔥🔥

Is it still the best in the mid range? What "e" stands for in 5050UBe model?

Can you please recommend me 4K projector LCOS. Thank you so much.

ive been with projectors for past 2 decades and have at least tried most popular ones at the time. But after seeing my friends 5030ub(1080p) i was floored by the colors but especially the inky blacks it produced! My at that time Acer V7500(4k dlp shifter) was noticably greyer and even though my 4k picture was much sharper(vs his 1080p) i found myself liking his more. The same evening i found out that Epson has 5040ub in the same UB line and its a 4k - i was sold. As soon as new 5050ub dropped i snagged it as well for another room and it was an excellent upgrade!. Was very excited when Epson dropped a supposed replacement last year, but after testing both Epsons new 11k and 12k ive decided to stay with my 5040 and 5050 since new Epsons have lost quite a few features for my liking (biggest would have to say 3D) and i would call this new generation more of the sidegrade if not downgrade

Nice Review as usual my man! I am still super impressed with my 5040UB for now. Everyone who watches it in my Home Theater is blown away! I am using a 135in Silver Ticket Screen.
