I've only had it for a week or so but I absolutely love it so far. This replaces a Sanyo PLV-70 (2200 lumens; 720p). I don't have a dedicated home theater room so I deal with some ambient light. I was afraid that going down to 1600 lumens might be an issue but it has not. The 1080 UB is plenty bright. I've read other reviews that have said the 1080 UB required significant picture adjustment out of the box. It seems to me that the brightest settings will require a decent amount of adjustment but I have not been using them. I have it set on Theater Black 1 (which I believe is 2 or 3 notches down from the brightest setting) and the picture was gorgeous out of the box. I can definitely tell the difference between 720p and 1080p on my 120 inch screen (running Blu Ray disks from a PS3). The blacks and color richness from this projector are much better than my 5 year old Sanyo (which was plenty good). HD content via DirecTv also looks significantly better, which I assume is largely due to the much higher contrast of this projector and probably some better color capabilities as well. This projector is also plenty quiet for me and it sits just a few feet away from me. Overall, I am completely satisfied and very happy with this purchase so far.
