How to compare it

3D support

A big niche purchase driver. Many 2020s 4K models dropped it, so explicit `false` is valuable data.

3D sync method

How the active-shutter glasses stay in time with the projector.

DLP-Link needs no emitter but can drop sync in bright scenes. RF is the most robust.

Standard: DLP-Link (TI); RF/IR vendor

Glasses included

How many pairs of glasses come in the box (0 = none).

Affects the true cost of entry.

Standard: Vendor

3D crosstalk

Ghosting from one eye's image leaking into the other.

The defining 3D quality spec. Only reviews can provide it.

Standard: Reviewer observation

3D glasses in box

Mirrors `3d.glasses_included` for the box listing.

Standard: Vendor

Deep cut

3D support. HDMI 3D formats top out at 1080p (frame packing 1080p24 per eye). There's no consumer 4K 3D disc format.
