Bright WXGA HD Ready Projection
The Epson EB-980W is a WXGA (1280x800) 3LCD projector delivering 3,800 lumens of color and white brightness with a 15,000:1 contrast ratio, projecting vibrant, HD Ready images up to 280" (0.74–7.11 m). Its 16:10 aspect ratio is ideal for classrooms, boardrooms, and presentations. The 3LCD technology ensures true-to-life colors without rainbow artifacts, performing well in lit environments. Users praise its brightness and clarity but note the resolution may limit detail for Full HD content on larger screens.
Advanced Connectivity and Collaboration
The EB-980W features 2x HDMI (1x MHL), 2x VGA, composite, USB Type-A/B, RJ-45 Ethernet, and optional Wi-Fi (ELPAP10 adapter, ~$99) for wireless projection via the iProjection app (iOS, Android, Chromebook). Multi-PC projection supports up to 50 devices, with split-screen for two sources and a moderator function for content control. MHL enables smartphone mirroring. Users appreciate the connectivity but note the optional Wi-Fi module adds cost.
Flexible Installation and Long-Lasting Lamp
With a 1.38–2.24:1 throw ratio and 1.6x optical zoom, the EB-980W projects a 100" image from 2.9–4.7 m. Auto vertical (±30°) and manual horizontal (±30°) keystone correction, plus a horizontal keystone slider, ensure easy setup. The 210W UHE lamp lasts 6,000 hours (Normal) or 12,000 hours (ECO). Weighing 3.1 kg (309 x 293 x 105 mm), it’s portable. Users value the setup flexibility but note lamp replacement costs (~$99).
