Performance The performance of the Portronics POR 315 was tested in a number of ways, which included running the DisplayMate test, playing content off an SD card, a memory card as well as syncing it to a Blu-ray player to test the video quality. While running the DisplayMate test, we observed that in the Brightness and Contrast test, the projector in the standard picture mode was good and there was no need to adjust any of the settings. In the Intensity range check, we noticed that the darkest greys were well reproduced, but with the case of the whites, there was hardly any difference between the last two bars. The only thing that differentiated it was the seam in between. In the black level adjustment test, we did not have to alter any settings as most of the dark grey blocks were already visible, however there was a slight green tinge to them. Primary colours overall rendered well and most colours appeared accurate, except for green, which was a bit vibrant. From a distance of about three meters, viewing angles are quite bad and text cannot be read well, but this can be adjusted using the manual focus ring. One would need to sit in level with the projector to get the desired results. The black levels of the PORT-315 are overall good. In the colour intensity scales test there was bleeding visible across most bars. ![]() Anomalies appearing on-screen
We connected a flash drive to the projector and we noticed that the interface was very smooth to navigate through and the drive was ready immediately. When we played videos, we observed that the load time was not that much and the overall playback was smooth.
To test the full HD video capabilities of this projector, we connected it to our in-house Philips Blu-ray player and ran the ‘The Dark Knight’ disc. While playing the movie, we noticed that the overall video quality was decent and nothing really special to write about. The colours were accurate and skin tones appeared natural, however in the bright scenes there were constant green and pink hues appearing across the content that was displayed. This was a bit putting off, but the overall video quality is better than most other projectors at this price range. The volume of the projector is really soft, unlike the recently reviewed 3M MP180 and one would do better by attaching some speakers to the 3.5mm audio jack. The brand has fitted with a 3,000mAh inbuilt rechargeable battery in this projector and they rate it at two hours. Rounding up the performance bit of the review, the projector is great for running presentations and for viewing casual photography or video clips.

How We Test
The Tech2 Labs receives many products every single week and each of them is tested with the utmost care and highest level of objectivity. There’s a constant effort to reduce and totally eliminate subjectivity. Each product is tested according to set test processes so the same test scenario is used.
The ratings awarded to a product are derived from a number of tests and calculations, keeping certain important factors in mind. These factors consist of features, performance, quality and value for money. In case of software and some other categories, build quality might be replaced with ease of use or ease of installation. Products are compared with other products in a similar price range or product category.
The features component of the score is rated based on the kind of features present on a particular product. Features are a big part of what people look for when they’re buying a new product such as a phone or a camera.
The performance score is derived from the benchmarks and tests run on the product. In case of the subjective scores, an average of the scores given by the group of reviewers is considered.
The build quality of a product is important so that it doesn’t fall apart after some use. The build quality scores from the way the product is designed and the kind of materials used in the product.
Value for money comes from the fact that a cheap product is able to provide most of the performance of a higher priced product. Once again, value for money is judged by comparing pricing and performance of products in a particular price range or category.
There are many other aspects of the product that are looked at such as the bundled software and accessories. All of these scores are aggregated together to form the final score.
What do the ratings mean?
Ratings are simple - higher the score, the better the product. A brief listing of the features and what they mean are given below.
1 - 3
The product is bad in almost every aspect. We strongly advise against purchasing this product.
4 - 6
An average product that isn't the best you can buy, but isn't the worst either.
