This mini projector weighs 0.77 pounds in a 3.73 by 3.73 by 6.17 inch body, small enough to live in a backpack. Dual-band WiFi on 2.4G and 5G handles wireless streaming and Bluetooth 5.2 pairs external speakers or headphones. Built-in apps including YouTube run natively, and 4K files play back from a USB drive. It rotates 180 degrees so you can point it straight at the ceiling, and a one-touch starry sky mode runs nine animated scenes with a sleep timer, which turns it into ambient bedroom lighting after the movie. Auto vertical keystone and both auto and manual focus square the image quickly. Best fit: dorm rooms, camping, travel, and kids' rooms where it doubles as a night light.
Pros
- Under a pound and pocket-sized, so it genuinely travels instead of living on a shelf
- Starry sky mode with a sleep timer makes it useful after the movie ends
- Dual-band WiFi plus Bluetooth 5.2, so streaming and external audio both work wirelessly
Cons
- A compact LED projector at this price needs a dark room, so daytime viewing is washed out
Frequently asked questions
Does it need a phone or streaming stick?
No. Built-in apps including YouTube run on the projector over dual-band WiFi. You can also cast wirelessly or play files from USB.
Can it play 4K files?
It supports 4K video playback from a USB drive, downscaled to its native projection resolution.
What is the starry sky mode?
A one-touch mode with nine animated star scenes and a built-in sleep timer, meant to work as ambient room lighting rather than a movie image.
Will it work in a lit room?
Not well. Compact LED projectors need a dark or heavily dimmed room for a bright image.
