What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.8 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Optoma GT2200HDR

  • An 8.4 ms input lag keeps the response quick in fast games.
  • A 120 Hz refresh rate gives smoother motion.
  • A 0.46 m minimum throw lets it sit close to the wall.
  • HDR10 and HLG support handle high dynamic range video.
  • The LED lamp is rated for 30000 hours.
  • A smartphone app adds control from a phone.

What customers don't like about Optoma GT2200HDR

  • At 228 mm thick and 3.2 kg it is bulky to move around.
  • The 35 dB fan noise can be heard in quiet scenes.
  • The zoom is not motorized, so it must be set by hand.
  • There are no stereo speakers, so the sound is limited.

Verdict

An 8.4 ms input lag and a 120 Hz refresh rate make the Optoma GT2200HDR a good match for fast games on a console or PC. It can sit 0.46 m from the wall and project up to 300 inch, so it fits a room with little depth. The 500000:1 contrast and HDR10 support give a deep, detailed picture. The LED lamp is rated for 30000 hours, and a smartphone app lets you control it from the sofa. The trade-off is size: at 228 mm thick and 3.2 kg it is hard to move from room to room. The fan reaches 35 dB, which is audible in quiet scenes, and eco mode lowers it to 29 dB. It suits a gamer or a film fan who wants a fixed setup.
