I bought one of their cheaper projectors. If you subscribe to their newsletter, they usually send out a flash deals email once a week. I saw the 120" rising screen a week or two back.
Good luck.

My understanding of the UST screens is they reject light coming from an upward angle, so it could work with a regular throw projector if it's not ceiling mounted, but you'd literally be paying extra for a screen with tech that is hurting you.


TLDR: NO

Reviews are a hit or miss…price is sweet, but seeing reviews about everything starting up on google tv and having to toggle thru to use Apple TV each time maybe a bust with handshake issues as well….anyone have it to comment?

It is not native its pixel shifting 4k aka Faux 4k, native 4k starts around $5K currently on projectors.

where is this stated? Amazon (i know, i know) says "Native Resolution - 4K Ultra HD"

**edit:
Q: Does this use pixel-shifting to achieve 4k like the vava 4k, or is it native 4k?
A: Hello,

We appreciate you reaching out to us. The WeMax Nova has native 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 and does NOT use pixel shifting to achieve 4K. Thank you for contacting us!

Thats how bad this is if their company reps dont even know or will willfully lie.... Directly from a professional review.

"Features

The Nova is a 4K DLP ultra-short-throw projector with a 2,100 ANSI lumen rating. It uses Texas Instrument's 0.47-inch 1080p DMD with fast XPR pixel-shifting to achieve 4K resolution, while the lens has a 0.23:1 throw ratio. These are standard specs for a midrange 4K UST projector."

https://www.projectorcentral.com/...Review.htm

You would have to be a fool to believe this has real 4K in it. As I mentioned the cheapest REAL 4K are all around $5K on the lowest end right now.

This projector is nothing special at all with its poor HD, the only thing this has going for it is its UST.

Too be fair though pixel shifting technology is considered to be real 4K but its definitely not a native chip. You will see this claim on a lot of projectors under $3K and they are all pixel shifters.

If not buying it for the UST. Would you recommend some other projectors? I used to own a HT2550. Loved it. Don't see it on sale now.

All depends what your priorities are, I wanted the best gaming and 3-D movie combo under $2K that could be used during the day in a light filled room so that led me to the Benq X3000i ($2000 extremely hard to find) and the newest Optoma UHD55 4K ($1800). The Optoma UHD55 4K you just missed a big sale on, it was going for $1500 on amazon last week. The Benq X3000i which I just purchased a refurb for $1700 off amazon I went with cause I figured the extra $200 was worth the LED light source.

Not sure for the reason for getting rid of the HT2550 but thats one of the better and highly reviewed 4K projectors but its only downside its from 2018 if your looking for something closer to the $1K mark.

Yeah. The HT 2550 served me well. Didn't move it during relocation.
