Great projector for a Friday movie night

This projector is well made and has many features that I find very useful. I've attached some photos so you can get a closer look at how it feels and looks, as well as some screenshots from the projector's menus. The projector has very basic built in stereo speakers, but when I'm watching a movie I'm glad it can connect to my bluetooth wireless audio system and stream audio. On one of the photos I've attached you can see I've tried using a bluetooth speaker and it works very well. This is a smart design because who would use the speakers in the projector to watch a movie? If you don't have Bluetooth speakers, it also has a 3.5mm audio-out, which is good for connecting a headset or audio system. The other feature I use the most is the built-in screencast. After setting up the projector's built-in screen mirroring app to connect to my home Wi-Fi network, I can AirPlay my iPhone/iPad's screen to the projector. I don't have an Android device so I couldn't test it, but I'm pretty sure it works. If you don't want to set up WiFi, you can also use a USB Lightning cable to connect your phone to the projector. YouTube video casting works very well, however I was unable to stream videos from Netflix or Amazon. That won't be a problem for me since I use Apple TV for them. The built-in 8400 mAh battery is one of the main reasons why I chose this model. I tried running on battery only and it lasted a 2 hour movie with no issues. It's a big plus and I look forward to using it on a summer camping trip. This projector uses 2 HDMI ports, 1 USB memory card slot and 1 microSD memory card slot as video input source to play multimedia content directly from the projector. It also has a 3.5mm input for older AVs. In addition to using the screen sharing feature as a content source, I can also use an HDMI TV adapter that draws power from the projector's USB port. Other small details I found about this projector show that the engineers put a lot of thought into the design. There are two remote control sensors on the front and back of the projector; There is a standard camera tripod hole at the bottom, so you can mount it on any camera tripod. The kit also includes 3 different AC cables for different standards. I suspect they just wanted to facilitate shipping to different regions of the world. There is also a fixed power button on the bottom, which allows you to turn it off when you don't use the projector for a long time. I am posting a video taken while the projector is playing a video clip. The background fan noise sounds louder than it actually is. It might be quieter, but you won't notice it when you're further away from the projector and watching a movie. Summing up, we can say that this is a worthy projector for a family or children. A weekend evening for the kids or a summer hike when we can't even go to the cinema these days. We just used it for our Friday night movie weekend and my kid loves it. It's not a replacement for your regular TV or high-end projectors, mainly because of the amount of lumens it delivers.

Pros
  • SMARTPHONE SCREEN SYNC
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
