Glossary
- Median
- The middle value of a sorted list. Half of the projectors cost less and the other half cost more; a very expensive projector does not raise it.
- Spec sheet score
- A 0 to 10 score that the Radar calculates from brightness, 4K, and wi-Fi. It does not measure what the spec sheet does not show.

Frequently asked questions
What is the median price of a new projector today?
In the 06/11/2026 catalog, the median price is $1,149, across 205 new projectors from trusted sellers. Half cost less than that and half cost more.
How much does each score point cost?
Today’s collection doesn’t have enough projectors with a score to calculate this.
Why the median and not the average?
Because a few very expensive projectors pull the average up and hide the price most people pay. The median shows the projector in the middle.
How often does the overview change?
Every day, with each new collection. Each collection saves a snapshot of the price and score of each projector, and the "What changed" section compares today’s with the previous one and, when available, with the one from about a week earlier.

Where the numbers come from
Lowest price seen for the product in the stores we read, on the day it was read, before sales tax. Median of each range calculated over the projectors in the range; the score only considers the projectors that have a score.
The overview describes the Radar catalog, not the whole projectors market, and the price is the one collected on the date shown.
