Great picture, good gaming, but pronounced RBE and no lens shift.

I would recommend the Epson EpiqVision Mini EF12. It is a great small portable projector!
If the rest of your setup is like that, absolutely. If you actually have a screen though, get a better screen. One of my suite mates had a cheap China projector, and my roomate and I used an epson mini ef-12. Epson obviously blew it out of the water.
Im not going to lie, I might be going against the grain here but its a gamble but some of those cheap projectors are actually good. I had one that i got for 150 and it lasted for 3 years before i got gifted an ef12. Night and day dif BUT not as much of a jump in brightness. I miss being able to game on my china projector cuz it had low input lag tho lol. Id say ask yourself this How often will you use it? What will you use it for? Will how much you spend justify spending x amount?
I had good luck with Ten Wimius S1 with 320 ANSI lumens, 1.2x throw, offset 100%. Very easy to setup n focus, can run nonstop for 12 hours , had mine for over 4 years, only uses 65watts Wimius has newer and bright K9 and K11 with 500 lumens. Avoid any cheap 800 lumens, those burn the LCD TFT Epson EF12 $300 is very reliable too for dim room with 1x throw. LG PK50 $150, Halo+ $375.
I got epson EF 12 since it's a cheap option and it's quite small (i rent an apartment, consider moving out in a few months and I already have a few electronical devices including 3 projectors lol). I'm going to get a higher end projector after I move out elsewhere and I'll definitely keep that in mind
Honestly at that budget, look for something 800+ ANSI lumens minimum or it’ll get washed out fast. I’ve seen people use the Epson EF12 on sale and it does pretty solid outdoors at dusk
