Epson MG-850HD review
It's a nice idea. With no cables or peripherals needed, it's now even easier to bore friends with iPhone holiday snaps or shaky-cam vids of the kids dancing. Simply pop your iWhatever on the dock and away you go.
Pros:
- Bright, colourful pictures
- convenient iPod playback
- easy to set up and use
Cons:
- Blacks could be deeper
- HD only 720p
- speakers too tinny for music
- a bit noisy

Ladies and gentlemen, today is the day when projectors get fun. Or at least that's what Epson wants us to believe as we take delivery of the brand's MG-850HD.

Fantastic projector
I've lived with this projector now for around 8 months. It's, overall, a fantastic piece of kit; of course it's my first projector so I do not have any basis for comparison. It took me 3 months to finally choose this particular model.

Review: Epson MegaPlex MG-850HD
So you've got an iPhone, iPad or iPod full of all sorts of multimedia but that little screen doesn't always cut it. Sure you've got options for getting that stuff on to your HDTV, computer, etc. One of the more interesting options I've checked out is Epsons Megaplex MG-850HD Projector.

When it comes to giving presentations, teaching classes, or even watching videos or photos in a group environment, there's still nothing to replace the traditional PC projector. Sure, there are little pico-projectors out now, but they lack the sheer power and features of the magic black box that can...
