Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-FH02

The CO-FH02 is our top pick because it needs nothing else to start streaming. It costs $649.99 on Amazon.ca, is sold by Amazon.ca, and was rated 4.2 stars by 509 buyers when we checked on Nov. 14, 2026. The listing says it has a Full HD 1080p picture, 3,000 lumens of colour and white brightness, Epson’s three-chip 3LCD technology and an Android TV interface with Google Assistant voice search. Epson says the picture can reach 300 inches. A $1.25 eco fee might apply, the listing says.
It suits a bedroom or living room where you want Netflix, Disney+ and YouTube on the wall without buying a streaming stick. Skip it if you want a native 4K picture, because the listing says 1080p, or if you watch in a bright room, where the 4,000-lumen Home Cinema 980 is the stronger choice. Its 4.2 rating is the lowest of the three Epson models here.

Epson Home Cinema 980

The Home Cinema 980 is the pick for rooms with lamps, windows or a Saturday-afternoon hockey crowd. It costs $1,049.99 on Amazon.ca, is sold by Amazon.ca and is rated 4.5 stars, but by only 20 buyers, so the record is thin. The listing says it delivers 4,000 lumens of colour brightness and 4,000 lumens of white brightness, with 1080p images tuned for fast-action sports and gaming. It has two HDMI ports and a USB port that can power a streaming device, plus a built-in speaker.
It has no built-in streaming, so budget for a Fire TV Stick or Roku. Our streaming devices guide covers the options. Skip it if you mostly watch in the dark, since the cheaper Flex models are brighter than most buyers need at night.

ViewSonic PX700HDH

The PX700HDH sits between the two Epson home models on price and brightness. It costs $804.99 on Amazon.ca, is sold by Amazon.ca and is rated 4.4 stars by 56 buyers. ViewSonic’s listing claims 3,700 ANSI lumens, a 22,000:1 native contrast ratio, 1080p resolution, a 1.1x optical zoom and up to 20,000 hours of lamp life. It has dual HDMI inputs and a USB-A port that can power a Chromecast or Fire TV Stick. A $4.15 eco fee might apply.
It suits a large living room where the long lamp life matters. Skip it if you want built-in apps, because it relies on a plug-in streaming device, and note that those claims are ViewSonic’s own, not our findings.

Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-W01

The CO-W01 has the strongest review record in this guide. It costs $499.99 on Amazon.ca, is sold by Amazon.ca and is rated 4.6 stars by 871 buyers. The listing says it has 3,000 lumens of colour and white brightness, 3LCD technology, a built-in speaker, an HDMI port and a compact body that fits in a backpack. It does not have built-in streaming, and the listing does not state its resolution, so check Epson’s spec page before you buy.
It suits someone who shares one projector between the home office and the living room. Skip it if you want a confirmed 1080p picture without checking, since the CO-FH02 states it plainly.

HAPPRUN H1

The H1 is the cheapest way here to get a big picture. It costs $129.99 on Amazon.ca (list price $149.99), is sold by the brand’s store, HAPPRUN Pro Direct, and ships from Amazon. It is rated 4.2 stars by 14,259 buyers, and the listing says 400-plus were bought in the past month. HAPPRUN says it has a native 1920 by 1080 resolution, a picture of up to 200 inches, built-in stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5.3 for audio only and an HDMI cable in the box.
The trade-offs are real. A streaming stick is sold separately, phones need an HDMI adapter, and the listing gives no brightness figure, so plan to watch in a dark room. It suits a bedroom, a student apartment or a first projector. Our Magcubic mini projector explainer covers a similar budget model.

How to choose a projector in Canada
Start with the room, not the resolution. Brightness is listed in lumens, and the more light in the room, the more lumens you need; the three Epson and ViewSonic models here claim 3,000 to 4,000, while the HAPPRUN listing gives no figure. Canadian winter evenings help, since it is dark by late afternoon in much of the country, but a basement with pot lights is a different story.
Check the extras that add to the price. Epson and ViewSonic listings mention an eco fee of $1.25 to $4.15 that might apply, depending on your province. Most of these projectors need a streaming stick, so add roughly the price of one, and a screen or a plain white wall. Buy from Amazon.ca or the brand’s own store so warranty and returns go through a seller you can reach in Canada. Black Friday is Nov. 27, 2026; see our Black Friday on Amazon.ca guide and the Amazon Picks Canada hub. For sound, a soundbar beats any built-in speaker, and for a premium option see our Epson Home Cinema 2350 explainer.
How much brightness does a projector need? For a dark room, 500 to 3,000 lumens can work; for a room with lights or daylight, the brighter 3,700 to 4,000 lumen models are the safer choice. These are the makers’ own figures from the Amazon.ca listings, and brightness ratings are measured differently by different brands.
Do I need a streaming stick? Only the Epson CO-FH02 has Android TV built in. The other four list an HDMI port and expect a Fire TV Stick, Roku, Chromecast or Apple TV, and the HAPPRUN H1 says its Bluetooth carries audio only.
Is a $130 projector worth it? It can be for casual movie nights in a dark room. The HAPPRUN H1 has 14,259 ratings at 4.2 stars, but the listing gives no brightness figure, so expect to compromise compared with the $500 to $1,050 Epson and ViewSonic models.
Are these prices final? No. We checked each listing on Nov. 14, 2026, and prices, stock and the eco fee can change, especially around Black Friday.
How we chose: We searched Amazon.ca for Full HD home projectors on Nov. 14, 2026 and kept models sold by Amazon.ca or the brand’s own store, with a rating of 4.2 stars or higher. We read listing details and did not read customer review text. We left out the Roku TV Mini projector because its seller was a third party, and we skipped sponsored mini projectors with no clear brand. We have not tested any of these projectors, and every performance claim above is the maker’s own.
