DLP vs LCD Projector — Difference and Comparison

What to Look for when Choosing a Projector

The ideal choice for your projector depends upon several factors: whether you want it for a home theater or office presentations; whether it has a dedicated spot or will be used when traveling often; and, of course, budget. Other factors like sharpness, clarity, picture quality, etc. are constant, and non-negotiable. This video guides you on what factors to consider before you buy a projector:

Pros and Cons

Advantages of DLP over LCD projectors

DLP projectors offer road warriors and home theater enthusiasts many advantages:

  • Portability: DLP projectors tend to be smaller and easier to transport given one chip versus LCD’s 3 panels. DLPs using LED or pico technology are even more portable and can connect to smart phones, tablets and other mobile devices.
  • Higher Contrast: DLP projectors’ deep blacks achievable make them popular for home cinema applications.
  • Reduced Pixelation: DLP projectors have a muted pixel structure when viewed from a normal viewing distance, which may not affect a PowerPoint presentation, but will affect smooth video presentations.
  • Reliability: DLPs have fewer parts and are less expensive to repair — sealed optics are good for dusty environments.

Advantages of LCD projectors

LCD projectors claim three main advantages over DLP projectors:

  • Better picture quality: The quality of pictures is much better in LCD projectors as compared to DLPs on account of
    • More accurate colors: DLP projectors can have clear section in color wheel, reducing saturation. LCD projectors do not have a color wheel.
    • Sharper image: LCD projectors have sharper image than DLP projectors at equal resolutions.
  • More light-efficient: A same wattage lamp in an LCD and DLP would produce a brighter image in the LCD.

Disadvantages of DLP projectors

The few disadvantages of DLP projectors are:

  • The Rainbow effect: Looking away from a projected image on older DLP or from one side of a screen may have “rainbow” effect, or moment of rainbow-colored stripes around brighter objects.
  • Light leakage: Grey band outside of the image can cause stray light reflecting off the edges of the mirrors on DLP chip. This can be avoided by installing black borders around the older DLP projector screen.

Disadvantages of LCD projectors

LCD disadvantages are more relevant to video:

  • Screen door effect: Sharper images can be disadvantage, since precise focusing makes pixilation more obvious.
  • Contrast: LCD contrast cannot produce completely black images with older models.
  • Bulky: More parts make LCD bulkier and less portable than DLPs.
  • Image degradation: More parts can cause image degradation if color balance shifts and contrast reduced.
  • Dead pixels: One or more pixels turn permanently on or off. Clusters of affected pixels interfere with the image quality and the experience.
