Epson EB-X49 Mobile Projector XGA

The Epson EB‑X49 is a high-performance XGA (1024×768) 3LCD projector engineered for classrooms, offices, training rooms, and medium-sized meeting spaces. With a brightness of 3,600 lumens for both white and color output, it delivers crisp, vibrant images even in well-lit environments, ensuring that presentations, slides, and videos remain clear and readable. Its 16,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio enhances the depth of images, providing sharper blacks, brighter whites, and more detailed visuals, which is particularly useful for text-heavy presentations and colorful content.

At the heart of the EB‑X49 is Epson’s 3LCD technology, which splits light into red, green, and blue channels across three separate LCD panels. This ensures consistent color brightness, accurate reproduction, and smooth image rendering without the rainbow effect sometimes seen in single-chip DLP projectors.

The projector features a standard throw lens with a 1.48–1.77:1 throw ratio and a 1.2× manual zoom, allowing flexible placement in medium-sized rooms. It supports a screen size of up to 300 inches diagonal and includes vertical ±30° automatic and horizontal ±30° manual keystone correction, which makes it easy to achieve perfectly rectangular images even when the projector cannot be positioned directly in front of the screen.

Connectivity is versatile, with HDMI, VGA, USB, composite, and network (RJ‑45) ports, enabling seamless integration with laptops, PCs, document cameras, and other multimedia devices. The built-in 5 W mono speaker provides basic audio support for presentations, while external speakers can be connected for more robust sound.

The EB‑X49 is powered by a 210W Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) lamp, offering a lamp life of up to 6,000 hours in normal mode and up to 12,000 hours in Eco mode, reducing the frequency and cost of lamp replacements. Replacement lamps are widely available, including the Epson ELPLP97 model.

Weighing approximately 2.7 kg and featuring a compact, portable design, this projector is easy to carry, install, and reposition, making it ideal for dynamic environments where flexibility is key. Its quiet operation (around 37 dB in normal mode and 28 dB in Eco mode) minimizes distractions during presentations, and its energy-efficient design contributes to lower operational costs over time.

Additional features include support for optional wireless projection, straightforward plug-and-play operation, and comprehensive compatibility with major operating systems and devices. The Epson EB‑X49 is a reliable, durable, and bright solution for professional presentations, education, and business environments where consistent image quality, portability, and ease of use are critical.
