Review on Xiaomi Mi Smart Compact Projector: Full HD Resolution, Portable Home Theater, 500 ANSI Lumens, Sealed Optical System & Integrated Sound Chamber by Micha Dziubiski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the quality is good, the price is reasonable.

In general, the projector left a good impression. In terms of color reproduction, he makes folk models on 1 lcd (26k, m18, m19, 1080p). But in terms of lumens, it does not overtake them much, it is a little brighter. Black is worse. 500 ansi lumens is not that much. More than 120 inches will not extend the normal brightness. If your eyes and head do not hurt from dlp technology then I recommend this projector.

Pros
  • My review of the Xiaomi Mijia Projector (Chinese version). First about the pros: 1. I liked the design of this projector - it looks very modern. Compact, does not take up much space, you can take it with you. Very light. 2. The sound of the projector is just a bomb, I did not expect such high-quality sound from such a small device as with jbl speakers. I didn’t even hook up external speakers to it. Although it was possible to connect it to my bluetooth amplifier. 3. There is Androyd on board and Wi-Fi. It does not work through the air, it is ated. 4. A short throw projector is a plus for some, but a minus for some. From 32022 meters, he gave me a diagonal of 114 inches. 5. The projector has good colors, the image transmitted by it is more like a TV set than let's say from Chinese projectors using 1 lcd technology, there is a cinematic effect of the picture, but this projector does not have it. The colors are cool bright, the blue sticks out a little, but everything can be adjusted. 6. Not noisy. Well protected from dust penetration. Lens protected by glass so you can wipe it with a microfiber cloth or optics cloth. 7. Does not heat up, does not heat the room like lamp ones)
Cons
  • There are also disadvantages, where without them: 1. The biggest drawback is the lack of a global firmware. There is only English, the services are all Chinese. Exit: just go to w3bsit3-dns. Com, read the forum, then reflash like a TV set from xiomi. Then there will be a 2022 language and Chinese services will not be an eyesore on the main screen. In general, I did not expect such laziness from xiomi. 2. A huge plug with a block is not of our standard, so we need to collectively farm everything through an adapter, why it couldn’t be done like laptops (wire - block - again a wire with a plug, remains a mystery). The bandura does not stay in the wall outlet, I had to use an extension cord). 3. Black color is not completely black, but dark gray. Moreover, greenish goosebumps (artifacts) run on black. I see them from a meter with poor eyesight, whoever has good eyesight will probably see them further (they really enrage). 4. A colorless frame of 3 cm around the entire perimeter of the screen on which there is no projection. Therefore, I recommend a screen with black fields. This is a minus of dlp technology. 5. There is no zoom to reduce the picture (a very big minus). You just have to move the projector. And I wanted to permanently hang it. For me, too large a diagonal of 3 meters is hard to watch 114 inches, since 85 inches behind the eyes. Yes, and vision will deteriorate if you look at a very large diagonal from a close distance. 6. Automatic correction does not always work correctly, but there is no horizontal correction (that is, it cannot be placed on the side like z6 is acceptable). 7. Dlp technology is a minus for me, if you look at the projection with your phone's camera, you will see the picture flickering (like a shim on monitors). My eyes were tired. 8. Not fair 1080p with pixel shift (like pixel shift). Not really, of course, it is clear that it is not fair, if you do not compare it head-on with another projector. 9. Auto focus that loses focus on a cold device. You turn it on, you watch it for 15 minutes, then the focus is lost, you set it up again and then the focus is not lost.
