Home > Consumer Reviews > NEC MultiSync VT440 Lightweight Projector

After reading several great reviews about the VT540 in Presentations Magazine and online in AV Avenue I decided to check out the VT440. I did'nt need a high resolution projector like the VT540 since I usually use PowerPoint and videos for my presentations. The VT440 is also about $1,500 less expensive.

When using my XGA notebook the VT440 did a great job of displaying my PowerPoint slides and appeared much brighter than my old projector. I also noticed that colors appear much bolder and accurate.

Setting up the projector is simple. All you have to do is make sure that you make all your connections before turning on your computer and projector. If you follow the proper sequence the projector automatically adjusts to the computer and fine tunes the image.

I also noticed a huge improvement in the display of videos that I use to introduce my company during training sessions.

The VT440 is a little larger than some of the 6 pound projectors on the market, but it performs much better than the other models that I tested. I usually travel by car so a few extra pounds is not a big deal.

The thing that really won me over was the service program offered by NEC. If the projector needs to be serviced during the first two years you own it NEC sends out a replacement projector instead of making you go through the hassle of finding someone to fix it.

Overall I am extremely happy with the VT440
