A look inside
A glimpse at some of the internals.
No lens shift
Like most inexpensive DLP projectors, there's no vertical lens shift.
Adjustments
Manual zoom and focus. The zoom range is fairly limited at 1.1x.
Top
Controls on top if you can't find the remote.
Input
There's only one input on the HD146X: a single HDMI. The USB can supply enough power for a streaming stick. There's also a 3.5mm analog audio out.
Remote
The remote is very bright and includes buttons for inputs not found on the HD146X.
