Hello everyone Nick here from TV Box stop and welcome back to another video.
Today I want to introduce you to a new native HD 1080p projector from TOPTRO.
This is the TOPTRO X5 and the manufacturer of this projector is claiming that the light
source used in this model is imported from Germany with the original image optimization
intact and they are also claiming that they are using an all-glass lens design compared
to other so-called models that don’t tell their customers that they are using resin
lens.
So that some interesting details.
There’s a lot more they had to say about their model in terms of picture quality and
brightness but I prefer to let the projector speak for itself.
So stay tuned.
This model features native 1080p display and adopts RGB+BP brightening technology.
It has 360 ANSI lumens that delivers up 30% brighter display than similar models.
It has a contrast ratio of 15000:1.
It has 85% NTSC Wide Color Gamut & 4K Support.
It has dual band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.1 audio support.
It has aspect ratio of 4:3 and 16:9 It has 4D and 4P digital Keystone adjustment.
It has a maximum viewing distance of 16.4 feet that delivers a maximum display of 150
inches.
And it can read office documents such as word excel and PDFs.
In this package contains the X5 model itself one infrared remote its power cable auxiliary
cable and HDMI.
It comes with a lens cleaning kit.
A user manual.
And a carrying case.
For design and layout to the front it has your standard IR sensor and lens cover.
For I/O it has two HDMI inputs two USB 2.0 ports one VGA port a headphone jack one auxiliary
port a rear facing IR sensor its internal speaker a power switch and socket and a pop-out
filter for the intake vent.
To its right is where you’ll find the intake vent and on the opposite side you have the
exhaust vent.
At the top you have a manual control and the focus adjustment-wheel.
And below it has four antiskid pads and a screw type kickstand.
So the X5’s main menu is a bit different from the ones we have seen in similar models
and it features smooth animation effects.
To the left is where you can select your various inputs and to the right you have your various
media sources.
It has a new option for reading office documents.
It has Miracast and IOS cast screen mirroring options and to the top right corner is where
you’ll find the settings area.
In the settings area you have your Wi-Fi settings where you can connect to your Wi-Fi network
and it has 2.4 + 5GHz Wi-Fi support.
Under Bluetooth is where you can connect to your Bluetooth speakers.
Under 4D keystone correction you have digital zoom.
Independent vertical and horizontal zoom options.
And you have your four-point keystone correction options.
It is best to adjust the digital zoom first before adjusting the other options as adjusting
the digital zoom resets the others.
You have projection mode settings for changing the screen orientation.
You have date and time settings.
You have language options where you can select from nine various languages.
Under other options you can see information about the projector’s hardware.
You have boot options where you can select weather to boot to the main menu or to a particular
source input.
And you have your factory default settings.
The last option is for updating its firmware using local upload via a flash drive or via
online update.
For display and audio options these only appear when you press the menu button on the remote
while playing media.
When you connect a flash drive or external hard drive to one of its USB ports it can
play 1080p videos and videos with DTS audio formats.
It can also play videos with SRT subtitles.
I played my list of 4K HDR videos in various formats and it failed to play all of them.
It also cannot play Dolby Atmos or any Dolby formats.
This projector has no physical keystone correction levers or wheels and everything is controlled
using 4D and 4P digital keystone adjustment.
Here I placed it at an angle and I will now adjust its keystone to get a square picture
on the screen.
And here’s a sample of its digital zoom feature.
A standard feature in these modern projectors is the ability to cast your mobile phone or
tablet using Miracast or iOS cast.
On the X5 this process is really simple.
Once you connect it to your Wi-Fi network.
Simply open the iOS cast or Miracast option in the main menu.
Then on your mobile phone or tablet scan for the name of the projector and pair your device
to it.
Then open your Miracast or iOS cast On your mobile device and start casting.
And it’s easy is that.
For watching premium movie services such as Netflix the manual states that the X5 does
not support HDCP protection.
This means that if you try to play your favorite movies let’s say true Netflix all you will
get its picture with no audio.
But you do have the option to connect your streaming device a Bluetooth speaker to get
audio.
When you connect a device via HDMI the display and sound options will look different as it
provides more advanced options to get the best picture and sound quality.
Under picture you have your color presets and custom user option.
Display mode is where you can change its aspect ratio from 4:3 to 16:9 widescreen.
And if you scroll down under advanced settings this is where you can really fine-tune your
display with some advanced color temperature dynamic contrast and other important display
features.
Under sound options you have your sound presets and custom user option.
And there’s also some advanced sound options.
The manufacturers of this projector boast of their light source being imported from
Germany intact without modifications and this delivers 85% NTSC advance color gamut and
for picture brightness uses RGB+BP brightness technology.
These features they claim sets their projector aside from the others and it delivers a display
that others only claim to deliver with glass coated lens when in fact they are using resin
lens.
So Let’s now take a look at its display and see if there’s a difference.
We’ll also listen to the audio quality of its internal speaker.
So in my analogy of its display I can confirm that its focus and edges are really sharp
and the projection itself is of a very high-quality and I found that the advance color and brightness
settings really changes the quality of the display to suit different environments.
But overall I am really impressed with the quality of it German imported lens.
Connecting to Bluetooth speakers and receivers couldn’t be easier.
Simply open the Bluetooth settings scan for your device and connect to it.
Let’s listen to
a sound sample.
For fan noise this projector generates around 51 dB of noise which can be a bit loud if
you are in a small room but once audio is playing you don’t really here it.
So viewers there you have it this projector is really something special and I can confirm
that the claims made by this developer are indeed true.
I have reviewed lots of projectors from various brands and just a few of them stood out for
me.
The first was the Nexigo PJ20 the Artlii enjoy 3 and now this model which is the TOPTRO X5.
