- Key Specs
- Product Weight: 11 pounds (The out of box weight of the item.)
- Light Source: LED
- Resolution: 4K (2160p) (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to capture video/images. The higher the resolution the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- White Brightness (ISO): 2200 lumens (Measurement of the device's white light output measured in accordance with standards established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The more lumens, the brighter the output. In large and/or well-lit environments, such as auditoriums or rooms with plenty of natural light, a higher brightness improves the quality of the projected image.)
- Contrast Ratio: 600,000:1 (Measured difference between a displayed image's brightest whites and darkest blacks. The larger the first number, the more detail and color that can be displayed.)
- Projector Use: Gaming, Home Theater, Educational (Classroom)

- Portability: Portable (Fixed projectors are ideal when creating an authentic theater atmosphere in your home. Often designed to stay in one place they may require significant recalibration if moved. Portable projectors, weighing around 5 pounds, are easy to move, but will still require set-up calibration and often have technology to reduce the complexity. Ultra-portable projectors are very light, often battery-powered, and ideal for on-the-go use.)
- Smart Capable: true (Smart, or smart-capable devices are able to connect directly to your home network in order to stream content from the Internet, run Internet-based apps, or connect to other smart devices.)
- Smart Platform: Android TV (Just like a computer, a smart TV needs an operating system (also called a smart platform) in order to access the Internet, connect with entertainment apps, and play streaming content. Some common TV smart platforms are; Roku TV, Android TV, and Chromecast.)

The more lumens, the brighter the output. In large and/or well-lit environments, such as auditoriums or rooms with plenty of natural light, a higher brightness improves the quality of the projected image.)

Projectors with a digital keystone correction feature are able to scale the image as needed before it is projected, resulting in the correct image orientation no matter where it is displayed.)
