Verdict

The Epson EH-TW5600 is a versatile Full HD 1080p home cinema projector utilizing 3LCD technology to deliver 2,500 lumens of equal white and colour brightness and a 35,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Key characteristics include a 1.6x manual zoom, vertical lens shift, and horizontal/vertical keystone correction for flexible placement, alongside 3D compatibility and a 10W built-in speaker. Main pros are its vivid colour reproduction without the 'rainbow effect', smooth motion via frame interpolation, and a long lamp life of up to 7,500 hours in Eco mode. Notable cons include its lack of native 4K support, a somewhat audible fan noise of 37dB in normal mode, and the absence of horizontal lens shift.
