Viewsonic X1000-4K Review – LED Soundbar Projector

Viewsonic’s first ultra-short-throw model adds to the company’s projector lineup. The Viewsonic X1000-4K is a 4K projector with an integrated soundbar, as suggested by its name. When positioned 15.9 to 65.7 centimetres from a screen or a wall, according to ViewSonic, the projector produces images that range in size from 60 inches to 150 inches. For comparison, the X1000-4K projects a 100-inch image at a distance of 38 cm from its surface.

The ViewSonic X1000-4K Ultra Short Throw Smart LED Soundbar Projector combines performance and elegance while blending into your modern lifestyle to give a fully immersive audiovisual experience straight out of the box. With a 0.25 ultra-short throw ratio and real 4K UHD resolution, the X1000-4K delivers a stunning 100″ image from a close distance of just 38cm. Additional advantages include a 30,000-hour lifespan, improved colour display (125% Rec. 709), and 2nd generation LED technology with increased brightness. Room-filling, crystal clear audio from an integrated 40W Harman Kardon-customized soundbar is ideal for watching movies and listening to music. The X1000-4K can be used as a Bluetooth soundbar or to build a 2.1 audio system with a subwoofer. Streaming content is now much simpler than it has ever been thanks to embedded Wi-Fi connectivity and an integrated app centre.

Our Verdict

4.6

The ViewSonic X1000-4K projector offers a highly viewable image for dim to moderately lighted situations and a solid-state light source that prevents lamp replacements, which may frustrate videophiles who exclusively watch in a dark room.

Design

“The X1000-4K is the result of ViewSonic’s efforts to rethink what is possible with projection technologies that can effortlessly integrate into users’ lifestyles and living spaces. The projector transforms a tech object into a significant interior relic by fusing exceptional visual detail and an immersive acoustic experience in a streamlined industrial style.”

The X1000-4K is the most recent in a long line of ViewSonic products to get an iF Design Award. Prior to this, the business won awards for its M1 LED Portable Projector in 2018, its X10-4K and X11-4K Smart LED Projector in 2019, and its M1 tiny LED Pocket Projector in 2020. The X1000-4K is a stylish option for home theaters—a simple centrepiece that blends in beautifully with any interior design. The projector and soundbar were combined in a package that integrates interior design features with high-tech appeal, and the iF Design Awards praised the design as having mixed geometric forms and fine detailing that embrace a convergence between gadget and living space.

Sound Quality

A DLP projector, according to ViewSonic, enables the X1000-4K to achieve a native 4K resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels. But according to a complete datasheet, it uses XPR technology. ViewSonic has been questioned about whether the X1000-4K is a real 4K projector or an XPR model. If we hear back, we’ll update this article. In an article written by Projector Junkies, you can read about how XPR technology functions.

The X1000-4K, however, boasts a brightness of 2,400 LED Lumens, a contrast ratio of 3,000,000:1, and a light source life of up to 30,000 hours. A built-in Harman Kardon soundbar with two 20 W speakers and a subwoofer is among the other features. According to Viewsonic, the projector runs at a noise level of 25 dB in normal mode and 23 dB in eco mode. Although the Viewsonic X1000-4K has a lot of great features overall and outstanding performance, but there is no lens shift or digital zoom, so you will essentially get what you paid for.

Conclusion

Given the projector’s affordability, the most of its drawbacks may be ignored. In its class, this projector is one of the more reasonably priced options. You’ll like it even more on larger walls because of how beautiful it looks and how well it may replace your TV. I liked it at 90 inches, though it can do 100. Even better, you may store data and music on the 12 GB of internal storage that is available to you. This storage can be installed on the ceiling. This is unquestionably among the top projector selections for 2024 for a 4K HDR projector that offers this and more.

    Really good projector having a Crystal clear image

    By Yukta Mehta 

    Overall Experience:

    I spent on two smaller projectors, and they function. yet they aren’t fantastic. This has an excellent contrast ratio. The right use of color is made. “The Lion King” looks authentic at 120 inches when viewed in 4K. The 120hz option on my AppleTV Gen4 4k is nowhere to be found right now.
