I tried but he said Walmart won't match parker gwen... What did you say to them?
No this isn't native 4K but it is twice as sharp as 1080p and it is noticeable. 4K DLP projectors will be sharper but have worse contrast. This Epson 3800 is measured around 2000:1 native contrast and most DLP 4K projectors peak around 1000: native contrast. It also has a dynamic iris which boosts contrast even further. This projector is very bright and can do well with some ambient light, I recommend getting a grey screen with it to maintain contrast and drop black levels. If you are trying to use it more as a dedicated theater projector then I still recommend using a grey screen since it's black floor is kinda high and it's just a bit too bright for a true dark room theater. Only go white if you are projecting on a massive 150"+ plus screen.
This projector also has a ton of lens shift which means placement is super easy and there isn't a need to worry about using keystone correction and distorting the image.
There are reports of this projector being a bit out of focus when using a lot of lens shift. Some users notice it and others don't care. When I demoed it in my space I only noticed it when looking for it. If you are using this with a HTPC and viewing a lot of text then it would be more of a concern.
1080p, ~$1000, short throw, gaming (must have) and watch movie (not very sensitive to the quality). Thanks in advance!

This one is refurb around $999 usually on epson website
Also the 4010 I think is around $1300-1400 refurb as well on walmart website.
Those have much better contrast, and much quieter, but just worse gaming and slightly less lighting. Unless someone has to game on their projector I can't see why someone would chose this over the others...
Yep you guessed it, I want decent latency for occasional gaming in addition to good/great picture quality for movies. The 3800 seems like a sweet spot.
I received the 3800. I switched from a Optoma UHD60, which was more of a side move than an upgrade. It clear that the UHD60 is noticeably sharper than the 3800, but the 3800 has better colors and has higher color brighthness. What I really should have held back for was the Epson 4050, which would have been an upgrade from the Optoma. But the 3800 I prefer to watch over the UHD60, which I used less and less with time.

You are going to have to look at DLP. Which DLP is actually really good for gaming and if that's your focus then you should be looking that way anyway. The GT1080HDR, GT1090HDR, and then if you want to almost double your budget and go 4K, the only short throw 4K projector is the TK700STi and it looks like a banger. These all handle HDR. If you don't need HDR then there are more options. Out of the non-HDR handling options, I'd easily pick the BenQ HT2150ST

Just call them and ask to price match. You may not get the same deal. But this is what they gave me, I didn't ask any questions obviously.

Did you asked for the 5% after you ordered and via email?
Edit: nevermind, i found it. The sold by Walmart was hidden in the search because it was more expensive than third party.

Same here. Tried multiple times. Even placed an order and then tried having them price match but no luck.
