Pros:
Seemingly aircraft caliber aluminum construction frame built like a tank
VERY nice attention to detail
Easy installation
Breathtaking "floating" screen appearance, with or without the included diffusion velvet.
KILLER customer service
Cons:
Although on the lowest end of the ALR spectrum, it is still a considerable cost when you can buy a lower end 4k LCD with HDR at 40-49 inches for the same cost. this is just a screen. literally, a screen. its 100+ inches (102 if you don't use the included velvet) but its still a glorified screen.
This is an outstanding product. I buy from online and in person retailers all the time. I would even consider myself somewhat of a tech junkie, though my budgets keep my habits somewhat in the realm of affordability. This screen performs exceptionally in every area i hoped it would, and then some.
The box arrived at my home in typical amazon "how the heck did they get it here so fast?!" fashion. excited i took it up to the media room and did a quick inventory check. Immediately i noticed several things. First was the actual box. other than it being brown, this is by far the nicest box and packaging for a shipped item this large i have ever seen, even the mailman mentioned it "man this feels like a solid box here". He was spot on. the packaging is so well thought out, you would have to go through 3-4 layers of cardboard to even get to anything actually inside the box which is important when dealing with a product that is ruined by any punctures or damage whatsoever.
After the box was opened (very easily i might add) i pulled out the two individual "boxes" inside and the accessories boxes as well. one has the tape, one had the right angle attaching rails and one had tools. About those tools...i don't know what made them decide to do it, but these are the nicest tools i have ever received to use with a product. i have never in my life received tools with a product that made me think "ohh I'm keeping and using this screw driver after this". this product did that. they also give you a small mallet that comes in handy and it too is of such good quality it wont just go back into the box and never be touched again, "im'a use that sucker". the material itself looks to be very high quality aluminum. i have absolutely no doubt the frame will last forever. everything that was supposed to be there was in fact there.
I opened the manual to see if i needed to do anything different than the very obvious when putting it together and I'm pleased that the answer was "nope". The manual was easily understood and had a clear English section however, in case you couldn't figure any part out. the only thing i could see that would even throw anyone off would be the center support beam. Something to note, as it is installed with its top and bottom hole attached to a different kind of screw then the rest of the unit. it has a head that goes inside the inner rail on the backside of the screen. If i didn't look in the instructions, i might think it was missing something needed to install it, so if your reading this just take note of that, i read several reviews of people knocking down a star because the center support beam "didn't fit". i honestly think there's a more than good chance half of those people (prob all of them honestly) just didn't read how to actually install that section in the manual that is clearly shown. the screen attaches around the frame via Velcro. As a drummer i noticed the attachment pattern was very similar to that of a drum head, you always tighten the opposite side first and move around the frame in a pattern to easily and even tightened the screen around the back. I noticed that many of the high end companies that sell similar screens tend to attach the screen to the frame with eyelets. either snap in, or tension band attachment. for those of you concerned about the Velcro, i wouldn't be, "this sucker ain't goin' no where". Once its attached. and after thinking about it, Velcro is the obvious choice because if the screen de-tensions over time, re tension of the screen is easily done here...MUCH harder if the screen had attachment holes in the actual screen material, so i say "great choice". The wall mounts are more than adequate and come with screws for both going into a wall stud, or going into drywall safely. The screen rests on the wall mounts in a channel at the top of the frames back, so once its up, it can easily slide left and right for finer tuning placement in those directions, sorry but no up and down adjustment, in my opinion though that adjustment is completely unneeded.
The screen itself took a little time to get perfect when attaching it to the frame, but no more than expected really. Once on the wall you realize "DANG, that is a BIG screen". the room i put it in is about 16 by 25 but you cant appreciate how huge a screen that's nearly 8 feet wide or bigger is until you are actually physically looking at it. I'm totally convinced that if these ALR screens were more commercially marketed with mid level projectors, that they would actually out sell regular televisions, even 4k models. for right around two grand US, you can truly achieve a mind blowing picture at an even more mind blowing size.
Pairing my screen (ALR cinegrey 3d) with the Epson 3500 in a somewhat well lit room with a pretty standard ambient day room light almost made me pee myself. i was hoping beyond hope that the projector technology had improved from what i had seen years ago and would look acceptable in a somewhat well lit room (pictures to follow in the next few days)...it isn't just acceptable, it is absolutely fantastic, and envy inducing to anyone that doesn't have this kind of setup that sees it and likes "big". when the lights lower, and at night, it is breathtaking. i actually use this as my main computer monitor and i am more than pleased to say it looks better than my "old" 65 inch led. I can tell you too, that it isn't just the solid projector I'm using designed for rooms with more ambient light, but the screen as well. in fact, i would give a heavier visual "WOW" to the screen than i would to the actual projector which is outstanding too.
What you have in the end is an absolute no brainer buy for anyone who is looking for a fixed frame projector screen. is the black diamond better? the high end Draper better? only until you compare cost to the elite screens, then those screens go from being slightly visually better to being WAY, WAY worse because they are thousands more. If your on the fence, don't take my word for it, get it yourself, THEN feel free to thank me if this review helped you at all.
Now for the downside. The instructions… they are fine right up until the most IMPORTANT part. There’s about 12 warnings about the screen and how easy it is to damage and be careful, and if it goes on and on multiple stickers, etc. BUT then, ZERO instructions on how to properly get the screen out or unroll it. In the written instructions as well as ALL the videos online it perfectly skips to the screen laid out with the frame then on it. For the most critical piece of the setup, the instructions skip…SMH. Long story short we GENTLY CAREFULLY pulled the screen out of the tube and started unrolling it and there were major dents and wrinkles. I was furious. Anyway, here is where the great customer support came in and special thanks to Johnny Juarez for being incredibly helpful and polite in processing a replacement screen.
I absolutely love this and it’s worth the price, but those instructions MUST be updated to include how to take the screen out of the tube and unroll it properly. Ideally, I would have someone else install it. To me it’s easily worth $200-$300 to get a professional install that’s worry free. Sadly, this option was not available and after receiving the replacement screen and having already done the frame prior, it still took 5 hours to setup.

Their support hours are quite limited so I couldn't do anything that day. Instead, I sent a detailed email to the support team with pictures of the damage, giving them part numbers, my invoice and everything I could think of, so that they could just send me the part the next day. Instead, they responded and told me I had to file a warranty claim. Don't know why the rep couldn't just create the claim himself with all of the information I sent him. However, I went and did it myself, since I still had all that info handy. After quite some time, the rep finally responded back and said that he would now send the claim on to someone else for it to be processed. So what good was the first guy, why was he even in the loop? It's been crickets ever since. I tried asking the original rep what all of the run-around was for and asked for a timeline. No response.
The screen might be good, but I'm already considering a refund and going with a better manufacturer. Elite screens is much more expensive than others of similar quality (using plastic in the support structure does not inspire confidence) I had hoped to at least get some service out of it. But it doesn't look like that is a priority for them.
UPDATE: three days later and they still haven't even processed my claim. Since it was taking so long, I decided to just super glue the broken piece together and proceed with the installation. I got the screen together okay and went to go and install the edge pieces and LEDs. I encountered more problems. The screw holes for the sides lined up okay, but the holes on the top/bottom pieces don't line up correctly. When I screwed in one side, I found that the holes on the other side didn't line up. It was off by approximately 1/2". So, I can't install the trim pieces. All four of the top/bottom trim pieces are this way. The other issue is that the package didn't include the LED strips.
I'm beginning to understand why these guys are so backlogged with claims. Three defective/missing components in one package. I can't just be that unlucky!
I would completely stay clear of these guys. At this point, I'm kinda up a creek. The screen is assembled, but borderless with no LEDs. Id like to just return it, get my money back and go with someone else, but trying to dissamble and repackage everything would be a huge pain! I have zero confidence that they are ever going to make things right.

Es ist nicht meine erste Rahmenleinwand an der Zahl habe ich einen Vergleich zu 4 anderen Rahmenleinwänden von 4 Unterschiedlichen Herstellern. Die Elite Screens soviel vorab ist die schlechteste Leinwand die ich bis jetzt gekauft habe. Selbst eine CCLife "billig" Leinwand macht es besser.
Zu den Positiven Dingen :
1. Das Tuch der Elitescreens Cinewhite UHD-B mit dem 1.3 Gain ist sehr gut. Feine Struktur die das Bild kaum beeinflußen. Kaum bis kein Glitzern. Unverfälschte Farben.
Eigentlich wars das dann auch schon an den Positiven Dingen man könnte nun noch Punkt 2 Zufügen aber das ist eigentlich eher ein Nachteil
2. Der Aufbau der Leinwand ist von allen Leinwänden die ich hatte bis jetzt die einfachste. Das Tuch benötigt mit dem Klett System kaum Kraft zum auf"spannen" und der Rahmen wird nur mit wenigen Schrauben und 6 Verbindern zusammen geschraubt.
Die Nachteile
1. Der Aufbau der Leinwand ist "zu leicht" , sprich das Spannsystem mit dem Klett bringt verglichen zu Federn oder Keilsystemen nahezu keine Spannung ins Tuch. Wenn man leicht an die Leinwand stößt wackelt das ganze Bild Sekundenlang nach. Was zu dem Problem führt das das Tuch über seine Fläche besonders bei größeren Formaten nicht Plan ist. Die Planlage ist Katastrophal !
2. Der Rahmen ist extrem instabil. Er wird nur mit wenigen Teilen zusammengeschraubt und hat kaum Verwindungssteifigkeit. Das macht es wiederrum einfach zum Aufbau auch das Gewicht der Leinwand ist von allen bis jetzt das geringste. Aber dieser "vorteil" nützt halt nichts wenn die Leinwand Easy aufzubauen ist und mit 2 Fingern an die Wand zu heben ist wenn sie an der Wand dann krumm und schief hängt. Der Rahmen ist so instabil das sich die Ecken leicht nach vorne ziehen durch die Spannung des Tuches. Bei Bildern mit geraden Linien z.B. ein Schachbrett Testbild sieht man dann das alle normal geraden Linien nun zur Ecke hin rund verlaufen. Das Schachbrett wird zum Schachball. Sehr unschön.
3. Das Klettsystem löste sich an ein paar Stellen schon nach nur 3 Tagen. Sieht man von vorne nicht von der Seite sieht die Leinwand schnell aus wie ein alter Schlüpper mit ausgeleiertem Gummibund.
4. Der beiliegende schwarze Optionale Zierrahmen wirkt durch seine Eckverbinder die nur drüber geklebt werden und auch generell einfach sehr billig. Die Zierleisten werden einfach mit doppelseitigem Kleber auf das Leinwandtuch/dessen Ecken aufgeklebt. Bei anderen Herstellern ist der Zierrahmen ein wirklicher Rahmen der Zusammengeschraubt und an den Spannrahmen befestigt wird. Ohne Namen zu nennen bei einem Konkurrenten ist der Zierrahmen mit mehr Schrauben und Verbindern ausgestattet und weißt mehr Stabilität und Gewicht auf als der Hauptrahmen der Elitescreens das ist ansich ja schon traurig.
Wer nicht wirklich sehr tolerant ist in Sachen Bildqualität oder wer nicht ein eigenen Rahmen kontstruieren möchte oder sich ein spezielles Haltesystem zur Verbindung Wand zu EliteScreens Rahmen bauen will kann ich die Elitescreens Aeon nicht empfehlen.
It couldn't even be assembled as they clearly sent the screen material for the next screen size down - so the material could not be fitted to the frame.
The use of velcro to tension the screen also seems really poor for a circa £500 product.
Alles in allem kann ich die Leinwand samt Tuch sehr empfehlen!
