Great picture & sound & the auto-focus is great!
This projector looks high quality and seems to be high quality. It’s a good size projector but is lightweight and very portable. It’s very quiet. The picture is bright enough to use even if it’s not real dark but the darker it is the better the picture is. The picture even looks good on a wall. I love the auto-focus feature. If you move it at all, it’s going to refocus. Fortunately, most of what we watch does not include text. I first tried it with TV programs and it didn’t handle a lot of text very well, it was hard to keep the picture and the text both in focus. It has two large built-in speakers and the sound quality is very good. You will have no need for external speakers. The projector works pretty much like a smart TV. It has a lot of built-in apps and you can and you can add more from Google play. You can also use Google TV on it. When you watch through an app, you need to sign in once, but you will not be asked to sign in the next time you use the same app. It does have a Bluetooth feature, but that’s for audio, not playing movies from your phone. I reached out for help and received a response within 24 hours. You can watch stuff from your phone using a cast app and then screen share. You have to load the app, but that was easy to do. Unfortunately, you can’t watch very long without timing out and it asking you to subscribe. You can either subscribe, or watch ads. Fortunately, the subscription is really cheap. It’s $1.49 a month or $12.99 a year. The included instructions are good and the remote is very easy to use. It does a fantastic job of auto focus, but you can make adjustments yourself and you can even adjust the screen/image size. I am very happy with this projector!

Amazing Picture and Audio Quality
This is our first time buying a 4K projector. Prior to this, we owned a smaller projector that we liked, but we had to make the room completely dark for it to work, and the picture quality was lower than our HD TV. This new projector is a little bit bigger, but the performance is amazing. Picture Quality: We do not have to make the room dark to use this projector; we have been using it during the daytime. It is bright and crisp enough to replace our 65-inch TV, and we are currently projecting onto a 100-inch egg shell color painted wall and planning to watch on 200 inch wall. The high definition is incredible. My wife thought it was a bit too crisp at first, but we ended up enjoying it so much. It is a must-watch for CG-based movies, older TV shows, Animation and video games. It truly enhances the quality. Audio: We did not even have to connect this projector to our sound system. It provides ample sound to enjoy movies, games, and TV shows on its own. Smart Functions: The built-in Google TV function is a game-changer and replaced our Smart TV at a fraction of the size. I was hesitant to buy a larger smart TV due to the weight and size, and this projector completely solved that problem. Size: It is a heavy-duty, high-quality machine, so it is a bit on the heavier side. Just shy of 6 lbs. Remote Controller: It has a much faster response time than our smaller projector's remote, which used reflection and suffered from lagging. This one is instant. Cons/Precautions: This isn't really a con, just a precaution. The lens is incredibly bright at 4,000k. You have to be careful not to walk in front of it, and definitely watch out for children, as looking directly into it can be dangerous. Because of this, we are planning to mount it on the ceiling. This is definitely an upper-tier projector, and it’s not for the faint of heart. If you are into high definition, the crisp graphics will not disappoint you. I was a bit hesitant at first because of the price, but you truly get what you pay for. We have have been satisfied and use every night for family time. My wife really loves the high definition and the massive screen capability. We are currently projection on 100 inch painted wall (egg shell color) and planning to project on 200 inch wall. My wife and children loves watching everything on a super big screen, and it truly brings me joy to see them so happy and I am satisfied with this purchase. This is a great upgrade for a family projector and well worth the price.

I like it
This projector is amazing for the price. The picture is bright, clear, and colorful, even on a large wall. Setup was quick and easy, and it connected to my phone and laptop without problems. The built-in speaker sounds better than I expected, and Bluetooth works smoothly. It’s small, lightweight, and easy to move around the house or take outside for movie night. Fan noise is low and not distracting. Overall, great quality, great performance, and definitely worth buying.

Great interface! High Quality!
Really like this projector! Nice to have something portable. The interface is just like my Nvidia Shield and is very easy to use with a lot of streaming options. Like the quality of the unit, feels very solid and durable. The auto focus is great when it is projected and automatically focusses in wothout having to intervene. The remote is simple and easy to use.So far it seems like a very high quality unit!

Buy it!
If you are thinking about getting this item just go ahead and buy it now. I was conflicted and I am so glad I had bought this item along with the JBL speakers. We wanted a movie theater experience in our family room and we got exactly that with this projector. The set up is super easy as well. It is a Google based tv so you have gmail you’ll just sign in using your email or there is an option to set up one. Set up took less than 10 minutes and it will automatically turn itself off if it is not being used and left on.
