Our Verdict
Epson Home Cinema 1080
Epson Home Cinema 2350
The Epson Home Cinema 2350 is a slight improvement over the Epson Home Cinema 1080, namely due to the 2350's better contrast and wider color gamut. Plus, the 2350 has pixel shifting technology, with HDR support and an included Android TV dongle, while the 1080 is limited to 1080p resolution, no HDR, and no smart OS.
