This review comparison was so in-depth and useful, thank you! PS - I make animated paintings with lots of different colors and values, for future projector reviews, you're welcome to use them to test projectors :D I'm looking at projectors to test the animations haha

I somehow managed to miss your last video and order a v630, so I'm going down the same rabbit hole with the refresh rate and latency. Weird that those issues were improved in the W, someone on the Vankyo forum said that the hardware was identical other than the Wifi chip. If that's the case, there might be hope for a firmware update that fixes the v630, though people have been asking for one since it's release, and mostly have gotten the same useless response. Gotta love that Vankyo's video on firmware updates shows a v630 being updated, then denying that it needs an update in the comments...

V700 is out now and I've been trying to get an answer from vankyo on the MS response time. They wouldn't directly answer, either the person didn't know or was beating around the bush but they did say it was the better performer to the v600 so I'd have to assume response time is better and of course a brighter image with better colors..I want to pull the trigger but no one has a review on it yet and I'd want to casually game on it so it couldn't be any worse than the v600 or it's not worth it.

As the two projectors are NOT radically different?). Point to Point is the worst setting I've ever seen on any projector.
