The flattest surface money buys · review
A fixed frame whose listing states total width rather than image width — the measurement that actually has to fit between two windows.
In brief
The same construction as any fixed frame, with the one measurement most listings leave you to calculate — and the same missing fabric specifications as the rest of the shelf. Key figures: Fixed frame · 83.5 in (212 cm) TOTAL width · white fabric. It is a European model with no Amazon.com offer on October 25, 2026. Our score: 7.8/10, specification-checked.
Total width, 212 cm. Not the image, the whole object. A fixed frame adds to each side of the picture, and a listing that quotes a diagonal alone leaves the buyer to guess how much. Measuring the wall and comparing it with a stated total is a two-minute job that only works if the total is published.
Permanent flatness and a black border, as with any fixed frame. Those two things are the reason this construction exists and they do not vary much between makers at this price.
Gain and backing. This shelf publishes both rarely, and this page records their absence rather than assuming a neutral 1.0 — a fabric can be brighter on axis and narrower in viewing angle without saying so.
They are the same idea at the same price. The ESMART states total width; the celexon states image dimensions and a diagonal. Which is more useful depends on whether your constraint is the wall or the seating.
Nothing. A fixed frame is finished when it is on the wall — which is its other quiet advantage over the mechanisms that need a trigger, a remote or a place to retract into.

Because the screen has to physically fit. A frame adds several centimeters to each side of the image, and a listing that quotes only a diagonal leaves you to work out the rest. Where a maker publishes the total, it has answered the question that causes returns.
In a room where the light can be controlled, yes: it is neutral and returns light evenly. In a bright room a gray or ambient-light-rejecting surface lowers the black level more than it lowers perceived white, and that is a net gain.
7.8/ 10
The same construction as any fixed frame, with the one measurement most listings leave you to calculate — and the same missing fabric specifications as the rest of the shelf.
A wall with a hard constraint — between two windows, under a beam — where the total dimension is what matters.

100 inch · 1.3 gain matte white PVC · 170° viewing angle · 4K/8K/3D · long, short and ultra short throw
One of the few screens in this catalog that publishes a gain figure — 1.3 — and the one that states which projector geometries it suits.
Best for: Any projector position in a room you can darken — the one fixed frame here that states it suits long, short and ultra short throw.

90 inch · 78.7 × 44.5 in (200 × 113 cm) image · 16:9 · fixed frame
The entry point to fixed-frame projection: a tensioned surface on a rigid frame, which is the only screen construction with no waves in it.
Best for: A room where one wall can be given over to the image, and where flatness matters more than the wall coming back.

4K PRO-UHD · 3,000 lumens white AND color brightness · 40,000:1 stated contrast · 3LCD · optional Wi-Fi
A 3LCD projector that publishes white and color brightness as the same figure — a distinction single-chip machines rarely make, and one that decides how a saturated image actually looks.
Best for: A viewer who notices color rather than pixel count, and anyone bothered by the rainbow effect single-chip projectors can produce.
