In response to numerous requests from viewers, they are interested in a comparison of two projectors, particularly focusing on brightness, one with a 0.23'' DMD called the Formovie S5, and the other with a 0.33'' DMD, the Jenovox M3000 Pro. Although both projectors are labeled with a physical resolution of 1920*1080P, the difference in DMD size suggests that the 0.33'' DMD will likely outperform the 0.23'' DMD for display quality. Here's why:
Despite the S5 being labeled with a higher brightness of 1100 ANSI lumens compared to the M3000 Pro's 800 ANSI lumens, it's important to note that the DMD size plays a crucial role in actual brightness. In theory and practice, the 0.23'' DMD's peak brightness cannot reach 1100 ANSI lumens and is unlikely to exceed 600 ANSI lumens. In our actual measurements, the S5 achieved 540 ANSI lumens, while the M3000 Pro reached 650 ANSI lumens.
It's worth mentioning that many projector models are known to exaggerate their LED lumen output, and some 1LCD projectors claim brightness levels exceeding 800 ANSI lumens, which are often inaccurate figures. When it comes to DLP projectors, the difference between the image captured by a phone or camera and what the human eye perceives can be quite significant. However, analyzing their DMD chips can help determine which projector model offers better brightness and clarity.
