Review on πŸ“½οΈ YABER Y60 Portable Projector: Full HD 1080P, 6000L, 200'' Display, Smartphone Compatible by Chris Meckler

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing quality for the money

I originally bought the cheaper model (Zeacool projector for $54.38 during Prime Day sale) but after seeing the specs of this model (Yaber Y60) gave up I took another one back and ordered it. It was $55.61 more than Zeacool, but I think all the added features of the Yaber Y60 made it worth it. The Yaber model has a native HD resolution of 720p (compared to Zeacool which only has a native resolution of 480 with support for 1080 HD), 4000 lumens (compared to Zeacool which has 2200), a contrast ratio of 4000:1 (compared to Zeacool with 3000:1). ) and 2 HDMI inputs and 2 USB inputs (compared to Zeacool's 1 HDMI input and 1 USB input). With the remote control, the Yaber model can also reduce the image size by 25%, so you don't have to move the projector if you want to zoom out like Zeacool would require. The Yaber also has a nice metallic finish on the top (compared to Zeacool's plastic) and a quiet fan. It also has a pair of good, loud stereo speakers and a 3.5mm audio jack to connect the projector to external speakers if required. When I compared the image quality of Yaber and Zeacool side by side, Yaber is noticeably better in terms of brightness, color, and resolution. My family and I watched the Apollo 13 movie on the big screen we installed in my brother's backyard and we were all very impressed with the performance of this projector. Another minor thing that bothered me about the Zeacool was that the focus ring would wander due to gravity when the projector was pointed at the ceiling, while on the Yaber the focus ring is fixed and doesn't wander at all. My daughter and I enjoy watching Youtube videos of the planetarium on our ceiling, so it's really nice not having to constantly refocus. I haven't tried Yaber with Powerpoint yet, but I'm pretty sure it will work quite well due to the brightness of the projector. I found the perfect case size for this projector here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F1NG1YR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. I can only recommend this projector! Update September 18, 2019: I learned that you can add Bluetooth capability to this projector by purchasing one of the following: Mpow Bluetooth 4.1 Receiver and Transmitter, 2-in-1 3.5mm Wireless Audio adapter, pairing with 2 Bluetooth headphones at the same time in TX mode, built-in hands-free microphone in RX mode headphone jack and pair it with any Bluetooth speaker. That works great!
