Definitely worth the money
This projector is awesome so far. I've had it a few weeks and have no big complaints. I love how this projector has so many different options to view items from it. I've tested most of the options and love it; my cellphone mirrors wonderfully, the laptop was an easy hook up, my older firestick was an instant success, and I even have a few movies on a jump drive and the projector played them too. The sound from the little projector is very well for its size. I did order external speakers just because when were outside we want to be able to hear those low conversation sometimes movies have. I live in FL and we mostly live outside and we wanted something different and fun for the summer. It's been a super simple set up each time I've taken it placed. Plus it came with a case so traveling with it is easy and it has a remote which is a nice feature. Overall I'm happy I purchased this one, it does everything I want it to do and even more. I'm thinking about buying another one for my bedroom. The picture quality it very nice and makes me look forward to watching movies.

THE BEST- BUY NOW
I have had a few different projectors over the last couple of years and this has been the BEST & my favorite! I have had this one for 4 months and I’m just as happy and excited about it as I was back in November. The versatility and ease of use is amazing and I love using the little remote to effortlessly change the volume. I was amazed at how big & clear the picture is, as well as the range of sound that comes from such a small device. I mostly use the HD input with an adaptor for my iPad, but really enjoy screen mirroring my phone using WiFi too- SO cool!!! It also comes with a padded case making travel easy, the user’s manual is extensive yet makes setting it up so simple, and it even comes with a cleaning kit!!! I’m a fan of the company and back this product 2000%. Plus it’s affordable and honestly a bargain for how wonderful this projector is!

Feature packed Portable home projector!
I considered a lot of options in home projectors before deciding on this Vankyo. It has a ton of features packed into a very affordable package. Bought it for my family as a gift and within 15 minutes of opening the box I was able to set it up and start streaming movies with the included hdmi cable. Picture is vivid and bright and looks great even when projecting it onto an old canvas backdrop. The built in speaker works well for episodes, but I recommend using the audio output to connect to a surround system to truly get the cinematic experience at home. It also includes a carrying case that holds everything needed to set it up, making this an extremely portable unit! Overall I’m really happy with this purchase and have already recommended it to family, friends and coworkers!

Projector for good time
Awesome projector, easy to handle and clear picture quality. I recommend this projector because it is 1. Cost effective 2. Compatible with screen share option 3. Comes with hdmi cable and remote 4. Easy to handle I am liking it. After I bought this I recommended one of my friend. His family also liking it. I bought after careful research about other costlier option. I took chance because it was not that costlier so I was not sure about quality. With my experience it's totally worth option for having at home. Amazing experiences with Netflix and other options.

Very Affordable Good All-Purpose Projector
I mounted the projector to the ceiling using the recommended mount made by the same company Vankyo. The projector is very light and the mount is fidgety but once you get it set perfectly on the screen it remains in place. I purchased a 110" pull down white screen and hung from the ceiling, with a couple hooks, which was also very easy (see photos for light and dark projector quality). Considering the affordability of both (seems like people are doing less public presenting these days so these are always on super sale) I was very surprised at the quality of the picture. The Vankyo Leisure 470 manual states this projector will not work to show text in a powerpoint presentation, however I have used a projector from the early 2000's to do powerpoint presentations and this one does a better job at displaying text. I did follow the specs and mounted the projector at the optimal distance of around 10' from the screen, and using a MacBook was able to see text fine. The quality feels like that of around 720p displays when in a dark room. If all the lights are on the projector still works but presentations would need to compensate using a dark background graphic to help the contrast. I would not recommend this projector for using in a school room or business setting if you couldn't turn the lights down, but for watching movies on the big screen at home this works great. I purchased a low cost sound bar, but haven't even installed it yet because the projector's audio is surprisingly loud, something that I've noticed other more older expensive projectors lack. Again, it's not 4k and that's most noticeable when playing video games (GTA V Online, Cyberpunk 2077, etc) but still very enjoyable, especially for watching classic and even current movies and tv shows.
