InFocus X9 – Review Summary - Bottom Line - InFocus X9 Projector: Cons - InFocus X9 Projector: Typical Capabilities Really, the X9 produces a very good picture, especially skin tones. The only real weakness is black level performance, which is bested by some competitors, but all considered, rather typical of affordable 720p home theater projectors. Add to that, very good shadow detail performance, and a sharp image, and the X9 is a solid entry. Keep in mind, while I criticize the X9 and the other low cost 720p projectors a bit, regarding black levels, consider that the bar has been raised dramatically by the higher end, but mainstream 1080p projectors like the Panasonic PT-AE3000U, the Epson UB series, and of course higher end models from JVC, Sony, and others. The black level performance you get with the X9, is pretty much typical of what you got on a $3000 projector just two and a half years ago! 1.
