Best Projector Screens in the UK

The Vamvo VA-01 does not compromise. Whilst the screen is not perfect, the parts that play the most important roles have been polished to the max. Starting with mounting, the model comes armed with two tripod stands serving as legs on its frame. These stands are lightweight, foldable, and stable. They're not difficult to set up and just as easy to take down. Using these legs, you can set the screen anywhere outdoors, from the garden to some camping place 100+ kilometres away from home. Generally speaking, the entire assembly will usually take about 5 minutes, including unfolding the screen, the stands, and setting everything up.

The carry box that comes with this model measures ~56 x 35.5 x 10 centimetres, enabling decent storage and transportation (not necessarily what we would describe as hand-held but also not quite the opposite case). With the two legs, the entire package weighs ~4 kilogrammes, so lugging this projector screen around should not feel like you're carrying three full grocery bags.

Again, the screen's not perfect. First, the VA-01 is using a foldable curtain. As always, long-term folding can cause serious creases. Choosing between creases and practicality, the people behind this product chose practicality, which makes sense, but that also means you'll start seeing occasional wrinkles down the road. This is not some objective downside though, more like preference. An objective downside would be the screen's frame not being corrosion-resistant, so make sure you're not storing the unit somewhere humid.

One of the bigger draws to projection screens, especially when used for home entertainment purposes, is that they give you a lot more flexibility in their placement than a regular TV does. Of course, that's beside the obvious other advantages such as providing a bigger screen for a much lower price, as well as the more cinematic feel that they tend to have. The VonHaus 100 inch Pull Down Projector Screen is no different than most other screens in this regard, but it does have its share of advantages over most other models.

Although flexibility in placement is an advantage that most projection screens have, most of them tend to be rather a pain to install, especially wall- or ceiling-mounted models. The VonHaus projection screen gains its biggest advantage in being much easier to install than many other models, which makes it a great choice for those who are trying to install a projection screen for the first time.

The screen comes with easily identifiable parts that are easy to install, and also includes an easy-to-follow guide that lets you install the screen in just a few minutes. This means you won't have to spend a full afternoon or evening installing the screen, so you can get plenty of time to enjoy your home entertainment on it shortly after purchase.

When you start approaching projector screen around 20-25 quid, you start looking at models that cut important corners. We're not blaming them though - you cannot compete with screens that cost at least three times more without making certain sacrifices. So, the question here is not whether the model makes sacrifices, it is whether the model makes the right sacrifices. And, from what we can tell, the ELEPHAS H100B makes almost all the right sacrifices. First things first, this screen is double-sided, supporting both front and rear projection. Between its double-sided construction and the hardware that's shipped with it, the screen will be able to suit camping, home use, classroom training, conference room presentations, even semi-public display.

The hardware that we're talking about here includes nails, hooks, ropes, and double-sided tape, meaning that you can install the screen practically anywhere, as long as you have some support system. However, keep in mind that the adhesive layer on the stickers that the hooks come with is not very strong, so we would not recommend stretching the curtain too much.

Now that we've approached the curtain though, made from natural polyester fabric, the curtain is thick and smooth, preventing creases and wrinkles even in long-term folding cases. To add more, the fabric enables minimum transparency, making sure that the projected visuals remain sharp, bright, and vivid.

The Mebios Portable Projector Screen has its moments, both good and bad. Since the good moments outweigh and outnumber the bad ones, we'll start with the latter. Even though the people behind it are making the opposite claim, the curtain is not very good at preventing wrinkles, leaving an occasional crease when folded or compressed.

There are multiple good moments pertaining to the screen but we will begin with the overall package instead. Including double-sided tape, hooks, ropes, and nails, the screen can be attached onto walls or removed anytime. You can even suspend the curtain somewhere outdoors, assuming that you have the right support structure.

Going down the list of advantages, the unfolded screen measures 227 x 130 x 1 centimeres, which is a little more compact than its 100-inch peers. Whilst the difference is usually negligible, with 5-10 centimetres width-wise and 5-15 centimetres height-wise, there are flats/houses, conference rooms, and classrooms where these centimetres can prove critical.

What can also prove critical is the 160-degree viewing angle that the screen supports, enabling even extreme off-axis positioning. In other words, you can sit at the side and still enjoy saturated imagery that does not look muted or subdued. Contributing to the same cause, the black borders on the curtain have been scaled down, meaning that the frame's less intrusive and the visuals appear come immersive.

Despite the fact that most of the best projector screens are those that are wall- or ceiling-mounted, those that come with stands tend to have their own advantages. The main advantage, of course, is that you can easily transport it anywhere. If you find yourself needing a high-quality projection screen that is both affordable and easy to take with you, then you should take a good look at the PropVue 60 inch Indoor/Outdoor Projector Screen with Stand. This projector screen will give you a positive overall operating experience thanks to the number of different advantages that it provides.

One of the biggest things that people look for with a projection screen is the ability to change its size, which can really be necessary depending on where you are using it. With this model, you can adjust the screen height in the range of 130-220 cm, clearly fixing it at the desired level. This is especially important for a model that comes with a stand, as you often won't find other similar models with this ability.

Another great advantage here is that this projector screen gives you great image quality for its price. The PVC screen gives you a crystal clear background for any projected images, ensuring that the image quality will always be vibrant without any faded colours.
