Summary: Not as big of a disappointment as folks let on...
Comment: I read the reviews. I was a bit skeptical. I was looking for a machine that I could use for both work and play, and I even purchased this item as a refurb so you can imagine that I was a bit scared about what I'd end up with.
By the way, if you go to professional AV sites and see what they say about this product, you get a more balanced review that looks at the capabilities of the product. People who work in video know that the defaults on av equipment aren't always set to match every end-users preference.
Out of the box, yes - the yellows look a little green. If you sit down and adjust the color settings with a reference image, its like tuning an instrument. Find the color temp and tint that you want, save the preset and you are done! I was able to get a reasonable color profile to match my vaio laptop in about 10 minutes... red gain 71, green can stay around 50, blue gain 65 or so.
The valid complaint, if you want to call it that, is the image is not the brightest out there. BUT this thing is small. Incredibly small. The lens? I would bet it isn't much larger than a quarter. The ability to be able to pack this with my laptop in a briefcase for carry-on is fantastic.
The audio is poor a mono 1 watt speaker. The lack of inputs was scary, but this comes with a number of adapters and attachments to make up for it. The fans are quiet - I was expecting something much louder.
Overall I found this product delivers what it promises. I am only giving it 4 stars right now because I just got it... I'll step it up to 5 if it continues to perform well.

Summary: Worst projector our company has ever bought
Comment: They're small... They're beautiful... but they're totally unreliable. Of the 30 LP120 we own, only 3 of them have not yet required service( i said not yet...). I have 7 broken ones now. LAMP DID NOT STRIKE... LAMP SHUT OFF..... are usually the welcome message with the LP120.....BUYERS BEWARE.. Turn around time for a repair 2 months....

Summary: Great Projector No Problems So Far!
Comment: I have to admit that I was a bit scared after reading the reviews, but I found a good deal (a small business going out of business)!! I take this to friends' houses and hook it up to my laptop I take this all kinds of places! I haven't had a problem yet, but I will have to write another review if I do. This isn't the brightest ever, but for the size, it is better than I thought it would be. I am not sure what has gone wrong for other people with their units, but I have had mine for about 8 months now and I use it all the time! I will keep this updated if anything goes wrong.

Summary: Delightful unless you care about colour
Comment: A gem of a machine spoilt by lousy colour rendition even by the low standards of projectors generally. The closest it can get to yellow is a mucky olive green.
Customer service isn't up to much either (on the basis of InFocus's handling of one machine that was DOA and the colour issue above).

Summary: A terrible product
Comment: Wow, should have read the Amazon reviews before buying. I signed up to write a review with Amazon just because this product has caused me so much frustration. I have had a compact Optoma project that has been wonderful for the past four years. I bought this because it was even smaller. What a contrast! The projector failed the first day. Received a message saying "Lamp Did Not Strike" ?? After following directions and checking the lamp door and reseating the lamp, same message. This is my third time trying to get through to customer service. The first two times I was on hold for an hour before having to leave. So far it's been 45 minutes...
(I'm never buying Infocus again. Back to Optoma...)
