The media could not be loaded. We've been using this for summertime movie night in the backyard all of our friends kids come over sit outside in a blanket and have a movie night. I have another projector at one point that was mounted but it was difficult to manipulate mounted high and I brok it so I thought it was time for a replacement tho is much better small and compact. It also shoots very far distance. One of the best part is it comes with two remotes. Very easy plug and play.

I hope this review and photos are helpful.

The media could not be loaded. This is a great value projector. It is very bright! I was impressed. It was bright enough to be used in the daytime, which is more than I can say for others I have purchased. The sound isn't deathly loud like others, but it works for most devices. I also love how low profile this projector is.

This loses 2 stars because the sound didn't work on every device. It would start for 1-2 seconds and then stop. It was only on certain types of devices like a Firestick. I could not get an iPad with an HDMI adapter to work.

I am keeping this because I got it for work, but was hoping to use it at home with an iPad and other items.

We have used projectors in the past, but this one is legit. The machine is well made, and the projection itself is very high quality. The speakers can get loud, depending on the source of the movie. For example, Disney+ movies are very quiet, but that's the same with all our projectors in the past. There's some sort of flaw in Disney+'s design. Netflix and YouTube worked just fine. The sound from the projector alone gets pretty loud, but you can use any Bluetooth or wired speakers for additional audio. Wired and wireless headphones work as well.

The system came with two remotes (one meant as a backup) but no batteries, so be aware you'll need to provide two AAA batteries per remote. The remotes respond pretty well to commands.

The fan in the projector itself is a little noisy, but not terribly unexpected for the size. If the speakers are loud enough you won't notice it. A little leg in the front middle unscrews to adjust the angle of the projection, propping the base up about an inch max. A cool feature this projector has is a screen correction. So, if you place it on the floor and angle it up, or mount it to the ceiling and angle it down, you can go into the settings and adjust the angle so the screen is perfectly straight again. It corrects both vertically and horizontally. Very cool, and not a feature I've seen before.

It has a little, removable screen at the air inlet, similar to a vacuum or lint screen on a dryer. Occasionally, you'll want to pull the screen out and clean it off before inserting it back in to prevent the motor from overheating. There's a little note on the machine showing you where the screen is, and reminding you to clean it out, which was nice.

It comes with a rubber lens cap. I wasn't sure how to fit it on the lens when it was sunk inside the machine, but I was able to just squeeze it in the hole, covering it. It was pretty hard to get back out, though.

It came with basic instructions, but I didn't really need to use them. It was pretty self explanatory to use.

We set up the projector nearly 12' from the screen, so that's the quality of the picture at that distance in my photos. At 12' away, the screen was 50"x98". The quality was fantastic. As I got close to the screen I could see the slight woven/grid pattern, but at a normal distance the picture quality was great. See my photos for examples. We connected it to a laptop with an HDMI cable, which worked great. We also plugged a Chromecast into it, and were able to cast videos to watch on the projector. The picture and audio quality was great, but sports videos, however, were a little glitchy for whatever reason. We tried both standard quality and HD, and streaming and recorded with no difference. Something about the sports made the video mildly stilted instead of smooth. We plugged the same Chromecast into a TV and the same video smoothed out, so keep that in mind.

This machine advertises screen mirroring, but I wouldn't recommend it. The technology itself is flawed, so if you're planning on showing videos instead of PowerPoints or something you might be dissatisfied with how laggy the picture is. To be fair, that happens with most devices we use to mirror screens, at most internet speeds, and is not a flaw with this projector.

If I had one wish, I wish this came with a carrying case, dust sleeve, or the like to store it better when not in use.

Don't be afraid of this projector. I am on a budget and didnt want to spend thousands. We were able to get this to 100 inch screen without any difficulty. The brightness and clarity was great. It is a mid throw projector. You do not have to be very far from screen. The connectivity using wifi worked without incident. I used my tablet to stream and keep the children busy while the adults were watching football during the holiday. There are many ports so you connect in various ways. You do not have to have a screen but you do need a smooth wall. White is best for clarity.

Worked pretty good on my 100" screen on the side of my RV on a very dark night. Not sure how well it would work on a bigger screen or with too much ambient light, but it does exactly what I wanted to do and for a good price.

How My Star Rating System Works & What They Mean:
1 STAR - Pretty much junk and I would return and ask for a refund if I could.
2 STAR - It works, but barely meets the minimum requirements it should in order to keep it and not return it, but I would not order again.
3 STAR - It does what it was designed to do, but there's nothing really special about it. It's acceptable but not great.
4 STAR - I am very comfortable recommending it to a friend because it is is well made, durable, and delivers on its advertised features, and I would buy it again.
5 STAR - I really love it. The item exceeds my expectations of quality, durability and functionality. Not only would I purchase it again, but I would also actively encourage friends and family to to do the same.

All of my reviews are my own personal opinion and are completely honest no matter if I receive an item for free or I pay for it. I am an avid Amazon shopper, as well as an Amazon Vine Voice and I personally rely on reading reviews to make all of my buying decisions, so I understand the importance of honest reviews from my peers.
