Plasma followers say what you like but this projection is it. Awesome clarity, a huge picture, HDTV and no hassle with hanging on the wall, TV stands or heavy lifts to move the darn thing. Yippie aye ay sums it up for me…and when it gets to be summer again I can take it outside on hot nights and watch a flick on the wall. Don’t tell me about bulb life until you read up on this new tech AND who says that plasmas or LCD’s don’t crater within that time frame as well.
You say tomatoe, I say tomato, you say plasmo, I say projecto!

Extremely user friendly. Has a good picture, high-functioning features, excellent portability. Out of the box and watching a movie in less than five minutes!

This was our second MovieMate projector (Our MovieMate 30 still is going strong). We love the concept of having a built in DVD player and speakers. You don’t need anthing else. The major improvement for the 30 to the 60 is the additional inputs (HDMI and VGA). The microphone input is also unique added feature that I haven’t seen anywhere else. I love everything about this product.

I purchased this to use in my classroom a few weeks ago and have not been disappointed thus far. I love the ability to just stick a DVD in and it plays—no wires and cords strung between computers and speakers, etc. I have also used a homemade disc/slide show that won’t play on a DVD player with the TV…but played perfectly on the MovieMate. Our IT guy said it was the best picture he had ever seen from a machine so small. I have set it on the desk and projected to the opposite wall of a normal size classroom…and it fills the wall top to bottom and the picture is wonderful. This would work well in a larger or double classroom.

My husband offered to set the projector up– which essentially meant he would unpack it and plug it in for me.
And the best part about this machine is that really that is all we had to do. Out of the box it was perfect! It allows you to have instant gratification –especially important if you have kids waiting for it.
So while you watch your first movie, which if you have children, will of course be their moive, you can flip through the manual and find out more information.
One plus was that it automatically gets brighter or darker based on the lighting in the room. A very nice feature. You can watch the movie in a lighted room. I have not taken it outside for daylight…so we cannot comment on that. We purchased a Da-Lite Movie screen –portable and are very happy with that. Given that movies are wide, consider that when purchasing a screen. The projector does have aspect options which is a nice feature. I do feel that this projector is well priced and very nice quality for the amount.
As the previous commentor suggested, we did purchase karaoke dvds and you can purchase an adapter for the projector to allow more than one microphone. I am a teacher as well, and it is an excellent way to have kids practice reading. My first grader loves it. They even sell nursery rhyme dvds. We also like to play dvd games on the projector.
Side note–if you do have kids consider putting on closed captioning because they will read the words.
It comes with a soft cover to protect the projector.
Colors were right on.
Clarity was super.
Very happy.
