PF510Q
Small form factor, big…

The LG PF510Q projector is a good entry-level projector. With most entry-level devices there are always shortcomings in simple things that are either overlooked or factor into the build.
The Good:
The small form factor allows the device to be moved around for temporary use in special situations. The ability to set it up and require minimal modifications is great for this type of usage. The Keystone correction prevents the picture from being skewed and requires adjustment for each use.
The picture quality is excellent in a dark environment with a white backdrop\screen projected onto. It is very vibrant and has a crystal-clear image, which makes the vieiwing more enjoyable.
The dashboard is easy to navigate and will allow more applications to be installed if needed. The remote easily allows navigating to the most used features on the projector.
The Bad:
The remote requires a direct line of sight (Infrared), where most have RF remotes to alleviate this concern. This alone will limit its use in most situations. You are unable to set it under a table, or on the lower shelf to allow the table to continue to be used for other items, such as keeping it from getting splashed on outdoors.
The lack of Netflix is sad and will require an additional device to be used for streaming it. Although there is a web browser included within the projector, it is not desirable to use a smart device to load a web browser just to watch the number one streaming app in use today.
And finally, the 450 lumens does restrict the usage to only nighttime, or in a dark room with blackout blinds. Most homes do not have these in the living areas and will limit the usage to only certain times of the day.
With the mentioned issues, the missing application can be corrected with a software update, but the other will require hardware redesign, unless the RF is already included but not enabled :)
