What to look for in best budget gaming projectors

1. Input Lag

Low input lag is crucial for gaming, as it ensures your actions appear on screen without noticeable delay. Look for projectors with input lag under or around the recommended threshold of about ~30ms for a smoother gaming experience.

2. Resolution and Image Quality

A higher resolution, such as Full HD (1080p), delivers sharper images and more immersive visuals. Even on a budget, aim for at least HD quality to enjoy detailed graphics in your games.

3. Brightness and Contrast

Projector brightness is measured in lumens; higher numbers mean better visibility in well-lit rooms. For gaming, consider at least a projector with around or above a minimum of ~2,500 lumens and good contrast ratios for vibrant colors.

4. Connectivity Options

Ensure the projector has the right ports—like HDMI—for your gaming consoles or PC. Some models also offer USB or wireless connectivity, which can add convenience and versatility.
