Worst projector our company has ever bought 2006-10-04
They're small... They're beautiful... but they're totally unreliable. Of the 30 LP120 we own, only 3 of them have not yet required service( i said not yet...). I have 7 broken ones now. LAMP DID NOT STRIKE... LAMP SHUT OFF..... are usually the welcome message with the LP120.....BUYERS BEWARE.. Turn around time for a repair 2 months....


Great Projector No Problems So Far! 2006-06-06
I have to admit that I was a bit scared after reading the reviews, but I found a good deal (a small business going out of business)!! I take this to friends' houses and hook it up to my laptop I take this all kinds of places! I haven't had a problem yet, but I will have to write another review if I do. This isn't the brightest ever, but for the size, it is better than I thought it would be. I am not sure what has gone wrong for other people with their units, but I have had mine for about 8 months now and I use it all the time! I will keep this updated if anything goes wrong.


Delightful unless you care about colour 2005-04-22
A gem of a machine spoilt by lousy colour rendition even by the low standards of projectors generally. The closest it can get to yellow is a mucky olive green.

Customer service isn't up to much either (on the basis of InFocus's handling of one machine that was DOA and the colour issue above).


A terrible product 2005-01-13
Wow, should have read the Amazon reviews before buying. I signed up to write a review with Amazon just because this product has caused me so much frustration. I have had a compact Optoma project that has been wonderful for the past four years. I bought this because it was even smaller. What a contrast! The projector failed the first day. Received a message saying "Lamp Did Not Strike" ?? After following directions and checking the lamp door and reseating the lamp, same message. This is my third time trying to get through to customer service. The first two times I was on hold for an hour before having to leave. So far it's been 45 minutes...

(I'm never buying Infocus again. Back to Optoma...)



What a tease 2004-06-09
You really want to love this projector. I bought three! Clients ooh and aah over the sleek size and of course it is easy to carry. Thats where the fun ends. Two of the three have broken down in moderate use within 6 months. The first has been under repair for 10 weeks and there is always something "not right" even when they do work. Customer Service from Infocus has been horrible and I am done with them as a company to do business with.


One of the best mobile projectors 2007-09-17
Very powerfull projector.
Small and light to carry. Makes a lot of impression on potential customers.


Small living room (?) 2007-09-05
I have a 12 x 24 living room with a patio door smack in the center of long wall, Our normal TV/Stereo takes up one short wall. I added a pull-down screen behind Patio Valance, placed LP120 on removable shelf above couch, out of way. Only problem was to add 1" bar on rear of shelf to raise rear of projector because it displays to high. Placed Sony towers on each side of patio door for front speakers, use wireless surrond speakers since my wife doesn't want to see anything around when not in use, screen acts as sun-screen when down, it and the projector work very well, given room constraints. Went from large living room and electrohome 8500 to this. Not like the moives do to seating but great in everyone opinion.


Great projector, terrible support from infocus 2007-02-23
A great projector for travel. Infocus tech support is terrible for service so make sure you have a authorized support dealer near you.


Size matters... 2007-01-30
We have 15+ LP120s at our company for over 2 years now and they have performed well.

Obviously, you buy this projector for the size. If you can carry around a bigger projector, you can no doubt do better on price, brightness, and color. But this thing is small enough to fit in your computer bag, is easy to set up even for non-technically inclined business people, and does a great job for business presentations to small to medium sized groups (up to 40-50 people). It comes with everything you would need in terms of accessories.

We've run some occaasional video over it with no problems. If video is your primary use, you could do better with another projector.

So, you buy this because you want a light, very easy to travel projector with the essential features for a small to medium group business presentation. For this purpose, this projector is the best on the market, even though it's been out for a few years. It helps that the price has come down significantly over the past year.

If you have other needs (video, large groups), look elsewhere.


Not as big of a disappointment as folks let on... 2007-01-09
I read the reviews. I was a bit skeptical. I was looking for a machine that I could use for both work and play, and I even purchased this item as a refurb so you can imagine that I was a bit scared about what I'd end up with.

By the way, if you go to professional AV sites and see what they say about this product, you get a more balanced review that looks at the capabilities of the product. People who work in video know that the defaults on av equipment aren't always set to match every end-users preference.

Out of the box, yes - the yellows look a little green. If you sit down and adjust the color settings with a reference image, its like tuning an instrument. Find the color temp and tint that you want, save the preset and you are done! I was able to get a reasonable color profile to match my vaio laptop in about 10 minutes... red gain 71, green can stay around 50, blue gain 65 or so.

The valid complaint, if you want to call it that, is the image is not the brightest out there. BUT this thing is small. Incredibly small. The lens? I would bet it isn't much larger than a quarter. The ability to be able to pack this with my laptop in a briefcase for carry-on is fantastic.

The audio is poor a mono 1 watt speaker. The lack of inputs was scary, but this comes with a number of adapters and attachments to make up for it. The fans are quiet - I was expecting something much louder.

Overall I found this product delivers what it promises. I am only giving it 4 stars right now because I just got it... I'll step it up to 5 if it continues to perform well.
