Hitachi CP-RX70 budget LCD projector
Hitachi isn’t a name that you usually associate with budget products but in the case of the CP-RX70 LCD projector the low price is a headline-grabbing figure.
It’s no great surprise that the package is fairly basic, so the black carry case is rather ordinary and the remote control is fairly large and clunky. The only other extras are the power cord and VGA cable, so Hitachi hasn’t gone out of its way to spoil us with fripperies. The projector has a silver painted finish that lacks any feeling of luxury and the styling is very plain, but that’s just about the end of the sniping that we can level at this projector.
It’s clear from the photo that the CP-RX70 bears a strong resemblance to a plain box with a heavily perforated front panel, but it’s only when you know the dimensions are 274 x 71 x 205mm and the weight is 1.7kg that you appreciate it’s a rather slender and lightweight box. (more…)
