Customer Ratings & Reviews

Small and compact. Wi-Fi works very well. Seems to have everything that one needs for a portable projector. 4 stars- picture quality as you go further from the projection wall becomes blurry, and therefore larger size of projection is slightly limited. Overall good quality.

Works great. Easily accessible. Hook up was straight forward. So easy my 6 yr old could do it.

The Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo is an affordable, 720p HD home projector that holds up surprisingly well for what it is. If you’re looking for a simple projector to have a family movie night with the kids, or aren’t looking to drop a small fortune on a projector that you may not get the full value of, this little projector may be the option for you. Pros: • The Leisure 470 is a fairly small, and very lightweight. It comes in at about 5.5” length x 7” width x 3.5” height. I haven’t weighed it on a scale, but given it’s made primarily of plastic it is undoubtedly light weight. Given its compact size, I was able to pack it away with me in a suitcase for a short weekend trip. • The user interface is somewhat simple and doesn’t give you a lot of extra options to completely mess up the picture quality, which is great if this will be used by kids. On the left-hand side of the home screen, once the projector boots up, you’ll have your input selections for HDMI or AV inputs, and in the middle of the home screen you’ll have your Apple Air Play and Android Miracast options to cast from your phone, tablet, or computer. In the settings you can adjust the picture’s “trapezoidal” alignment which helps if your projector is angled up towards your screen or wall. • Focusing and fine tuning the picture is also straightforward, with two focus buttons on the remote that adjust the projector’s lenses one increment at a time. • The projector’s fan noise is not too loud. It’s there, but if you’re using an external speaker to bump up the volume, you aren’t going to notice it and you really can’t avoid it in most projectors. • The built-in speaker is better than expected. If you want to keep the setup pretty simple, you can definitely use the built in speaker. It gets reasonably loud, and it sounds almost like any other cheap TV’s built-in speakers. • While only boasting a max resolution of 720p HD, the picture quality looks surprisingly crisp. Plus there’s something about watching it on a projected image that makes it feel like you’re in a theater setting and picture quality kind of falls to a secondary concern. Again, for $130 you’re getting excellent picture quality. I watched a bunch of re-runs of USA’s White Collar and tons of Youtube on this unit on my short trip, and it looked solid all around. Cons: • You will definitely need a dark room. Maybe not a completely pitch black room, but close. Keep in mind that even a little bit of ambient light will start degrading your picture quality. • This projector does not have a built-in battery for ultimate portability, but for that type of feature you’d generally need to spend at least 3x as much as this unit costs. I personally wish the power cord were a little longer to account for this, but I’ve made do with an extension cord. • While this projector does support Apple’s Airplay and Miracast for Android, I would not recommend using these options. Instead of casting the video in a way that lets you lock your phone or tablet, you have to essentially screen mirror your phone or tablet to the projector. What that means is that everything you do on your phone, tablet, or computer is casted to the projector, and locking the screen means that your video is stopped. It may be okay for some if you’re planning on casting from a computer than can stay plugged in, but you’ll still have two screens playing the same content between your computer and the projector. • While you can connect a bluetooth speaker for wireless audio, I found that there was a noticeable delay where the video’s sound would be off by 1-2 seconds using this method. I’d recommend just plugging in a speaker with an Aux cord and the headphone jack on the projector, or, buy a Chromecast and connect a bluetooth speaker to it directly. • There are other projectors that have an auto-focus feature. This unit, given it’s price, does not. Its not a dealbreaker, but if you don’t have patience to fiddle with it for a few minutes, you may consider going with another unit. • There is some aliasing, or jagged edges, that you can see on some images after adjusting the image “trapezoidal” parameters. It wasn’t terrible with my setup, but I can imagine it could be bothersome to some folks. Overall, this is a great portable projector that wont break the bank. It’s easy to use, and while it doesn’t have all of the latest and greatest features, it’s hard to look at the price of this unit and feel like you’re not getting what you’re paying for.

The Vankyo Leisure 470 NEO is a compact, budget-friendly projector that aims to bring the big-screen experience to your home without breaking the bank. As a tech enthusiast, I appreciate the strides Vankyo has made in delivering a portable, user-friendly projector with a reasonable price tag. However, this device is not without its drawbacks. Starting with the positives, the Vankyo Leisure 470 NEO offers impressive brightness for its category. The 120 ANSI lumens provide a decent viewing experience in dimly lit rooms, making it suitable for movie nights or casual gaming sessions. The resolutions is 720p, which, while not Full HD, still delivers a clear and crisp image on screens up to 250 inches. This is commendable for a projector at this price point. The inclusion of dual speakers is another highlight, providing decent audio quality without the immediat need for external speakers, although audiophiles might still prefer a separate sound system. The device is also commendable for its ease of use. Setup is straightforward, with intuitive controls and a user-friendly interface. It supports multiple connectivity options including HDMI, USB, and VGA, which is quite versatile. The ability to mirror your smartphone screen through Wi-Fi is a convenient feature, especially for streaming apps and presentations. However, the Vankyo Leisure 470 NEO is not without its shortcomings. The most notable issue is its performance in brightly lit environments. Despite its respectable brightness, the picture quality significantly diminishes in well-lit rooms, which limits its usability to darker settings. Another downside is the fan noise, which can be distracting during quieter scenes in movies or presentations. While it's not overwhelmingly loud, it's noticeable enough to detract from the overall viewing experience. The color accuracy and contrast levels, while adequate for casual viewing, fall short for those who demand higher fidelity. Blacks tend to appear more grayish, and colors lack the vividness found in higher-end projectors. This might be a deal-breaker for videophiles or anyone looking for a projector with superior color performance. Additionally, the lack of a built-in battery means the projector needs to be plugged in at all times, reducing its portability compared to some other models on the market. This could be a limiting factor for users looking to use it in outdoor settings without convenient access to power. Overall, the Vankyo Leisure 470 NEO is a solid entry-level projector that offers good value for its price. It excels in ease of use and offers decent image quality for its resolution and brightness levels. However, it does have limitations that might make it less appealing to more discerning users. Taking into account its performance, ease of use, and the noted shortcomings, I would rate the Vankyo Leisure 470 NEO at 3.5 stars out of 5. It’s a capable device for casual users or those new to projectors, but it falls short of delivering a premium viewing experience.

The Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo Wireless Mini Projector in white has proven to be an impressive addition to any home entertainment setup, delivering a host of features that enhance the viewing experience. Pros: The picture quality stands out as a major strength. Despite its native resolution of 720p, the Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo produces sharp and vibrant images. It supports input resolutions up to 1080p, ensuring that even high-definition content looks great. The color accuracy and brightness are excellent for a projector of this size, making movies, TV shows, and games look vivid and detailed. The wireless connectivity feature is incredibly convenient. It allows seamless streaming from smartphones, laptops, and other devices without the hassle of cables. The projector includes multiple ports such as HDMI and USB, providing flexibility in connecting various devices. Additionally, the screen-sharing and Miracast capabilities enable easy mirroring of content from compatible devices, making it simple to project videos, presentations, or games directly from your phone or tablet. Another notable advantage is the ease of setup. The intuitive interface and straightforward controls make it simple to get started, even for those not particularly tech-savvy. The remote control is easy to use and comes with two AAA batteries included, which is a nice touch and ensures you're ready to go right out of the box. The compact size and portability of the projector add to its appeal, enabling easy use in different locations, from the living room to the backyard for an outdoor movie night. Cons: While the Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo has many strengths, there are a few areas where it could improve. The built-in speaker, while adequate for casual use, lacks the power and depth needed for a truly immersive audio experience. Connecting external speakers is recommended to enhance sound quality, especially for action-packed movies or music events. Another minor issue is the fan noise. Although it's not excessively loud, it can be noticeable during quieter scenes. This may be slightly distracting for some users, although it tends to fade into the background once you become accustomed to it. Conclusion: In summary, the Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo Wireless Mini Projector offers excellent picture quality, ease of setup, and convenient wireless connectivity, making it a great choice for enhancing home entertainment. Despite a few minor drawbacks such as the built-in speaker quality and fan noise, the overall performance and versatility of this projector make it a valuable addition to any household. Whether for movies, gaming, or outdoor screenings, it delivers an impressive and enjoyable viewing experience.

The best in the world Love Best Buy better than target any other store?

The Vankyo 470 Neo mini is a nicely made portable projector that can turn any wall into a display. The projector was very well packed with foam padding protecting the device. It is quite small, very light and portable compared to a normal size projector. The projector native resolution is 720p, however the manual states that it supports 1080p input signal. The screen size can go from 37 inches to a massive 250 inches. It has 1 HDMI, USB port, headphone jack port, and AV input. It supports Wi-Fi connection, Bluetooth, Miracast and Airplay. It is very easy to setup. There are several control buttons on the upper surface that will help with the setup process. I do recommend using the included remote since it has the lens focus buttons that are not on the actual device. During my setup process it was out of focus. The remote uses 2 AA batteries that are not included. The on-screen menus were quite simple and were easy to navigate. This device for its size is very bright and produces nice colors despite being a 720p. However, in bright areas it struggles badly. You will get the best of it, mostly in dark environments. The wireless display capabilities performed like a champ. The image was impressively good with no video or sound lag. This projector does not have a built-in speaker but can connect one via Bluetooth and it works great. On the bottom it has an adjustable height screw and it supports a tripod. Despite mostly being positive about this projector there are few shortcomings. One of them is the fan. The fan is very loud for some reason. It mounted it on a tripod with the idea that better airflow will make it quieter but that was not the case, it was still loud. The brightness is also a struggle. As I mentioned before if you are using it in a bright area the image will not look as good. You will get the full potential in a dark environment. Also, this is a mini portable projector, but it does not have an internal battery. You have to plug it to a power source and the power brick is quite large and It does not come with a carrying case either. Overall, this projector is pretty good for its price and its capabilities despite some of the shortcomings. You can take it pretty much anywhere and it supports a variety of video input sources without the hassle to be tethered to just a video cable. It is easy to use and setup. It works across multiple devices such as mobile phones, PCs, and tablets. It also works with mostly used Operating Systems such as Windows, iOS and Android. This will be great for social gathering or business presentations on the go. In the box you get the projector, HDMI cable, power cable, remote, cleaning kit, and quick start manuals.

I have been wanting a projector for some time now and having looked at many, I did not think I would find a decent one at this price point. That said, Vankyo completely obliterated that notion. Not only is it budget friendly, but it is portable and works amazingly well. Set up was much easier than I expected. All I had to do was get in plugged in and get some AAA batteries into the controller and it was up and running. Besides that, setup involved finding the right elevation to get it just right on my blank wall. We were enjoying a movie within 10 minutes of getting it out of the box. Besides the projector, the package comes with a power cable, and HDMI cable, a lens cover cap, a remote controller, and a cleaning kit. The projector is very lightweight, and the size adds to its portability. It can be set on a flat surface or mounted. If it has to be mounted from the ceiling, the picture can be flipped so it won’t play upside down. The included manual is very thorough in giving step by step instructions on how to use all of its features and connect every type of device supported along with pictures for guidance. I commend Vankyo because it is rare nowadays to find manuals like this. The menu screen is easy to go through and understand. The projector has options to focus the screen to get the picture just right, which can easily be done using the controller. It does have to be very dark to really see colors standout nicely, which was no problem for me as I have blackout curtains. For this reason, I would probably only use it outdoors in very dark settings, such as camping, to really enjoy the picture quality. I first connected the projector to my Roku via HDMI and it worked as seamlessly as it would with a tv. I also used it via Airplay screen mirroring. The phone screen transmitted crystal clear with no distortion. It is great for gatherings to show photos to family and such things as well as to just play movies on a screen larger than the average tv. I have watched several movies with my kids, and we become really immersed in it, enjoying the large picture it provides. It truly gives us the experience of a small home theater. The volume of the speaker it came with can go up pretty loud and it has Bluetooth to allow for speakers to be connected as well. It found and linked to my speaker quickly with absolutely no issue and the sound and picture were perfectly in sync. I am personally really enjoying this projector. It provides so many modalities of connections to a variety of devices that I feel it basically has all bases covered. That paired with the ease of connection just makes this an all-around great addition to our family movie nights.

The Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo is a great entry-level projector that is packed with features and is a great addition to movie night with the kids. After using this projector for about a week, I definitely have a few thoughts on it's strengths and some of the issues I came across that aren't necessarily deal breakers for me, but the expectations should be set. Pros: Easy to Setup: I found the Leisure 470 Neo to be a breeze to set up. I was able to plug it in and have it connected to my wifi in less than 5 minutes. This is required if you do want to screen mirror with any able device. My iPhone recognized the projector right away and I was able to mirror my kid's favorite YouTube content without issue. It also recognized my computer right away when connecting via HDMI (included in the box). Picture Quality: The Leisure's picture quality was better than expected. I thought maybe the 720P resolution wouldn't be enough for my application but it was more than sufficient for casual video streaming. The brightness of the projector was also plenty for viewing in a darker room and the ability to change the focus from the remote is a great feature that I was not expecting. Features: As mentioned above, the remote focus adjustment impressed me the most. You are also able to change the zoom level of the image which helps tremendously when fine tuning the image size depending on where the projector is placed in the room. Cons: Fan noise: The fan noise cannot be overlooked. It's definitely louder than expected and can be distracting during movies. This is not something that bothered my children but should be kept in mind depending on your specific application. Screen Mirroring: This isn't a deal breaker but should be considered. I have all Apple devices and this projector only offers wireless screen mirroring. While this is fine for apps like YouTube, you will not be able to use subscription apps like Youtube TV, Disney+, or Netflix - these apps do not allow screen mirroring. I recommend connecting this to HDMI for best results. Speaker: The built in speaker is nothing to write home about. It's fine for kid content but you will be disappointed if you are expecting movie theater experience. I would get an auxiliary speaker that you can plug in for the best experience. Conclusion: I found this projector great for my kids as a novelty we can break out for an occasional movie night. It's feature-rich for the price point and I can see our family getting a ton of enjoyment from the Leisure 470 Neo. Keep in mind that it does have its limitations with the brightness, resolution, and speaker quality.

I’ve been wanting an entry level projector to project movies on my wall for the kids, or football game on my garage door for the neighborhood, and I have found it! This projector is surprisingly bright for its size, and provides a really crisp picture. My son spent quite a while using the iPhone airplay feature, and the projector was incredibly responsive with virtually no delay. I’ve used large projectors for the last 10 years while traveling and giving presentations, and while this isn’t a projector I would want as my main in office projector, it is one I will definitely use for travel, simply because of the portability. The speakers are really good, but depending on the room and event, you may want to bring an external set. One thing which really stands out to me is the responsiveness of the controls, remote and menu. I have sat in front of large audiences, fumbling over projector controls, to experience significant delays between each and every menu option. This projector is as responsive as a T.V. So you can breeze through settings and get your alignment, aspect ratio and brightness setup with ease. For me, this is the perfect projector for occasional around the house use. It’s bright enough, and small enough, that you really get a lot of bang for your buck. Generally, when I hear the words portable around a projector, I think of those mini, almost pocket sizes projectors, which are always a disappointment. This is not at all one of those, it’s a fully functional projector, but in a compact form, intended to be carried in luggage with quick setup.

If you’re used to a full sized projector giving you ~3000 lumens and ~50,000:1 contrast ratios, then you might be disappointed, but if you’re looking for a decent, easy to set up, and easy to move anywhere projector for movie nights with the kiddos by a campfire, or backyard fun times, then you’re in for a treat! My daughters and I had a blast in the basement, watching a movie with sleeping bags, and blankets on the floor. And when the weather gets better, we plan on doing the same in the backyard this summer. Long story short, this little projector is great for offering fun experiences with the family. Its size is comparable to a couple of Xbox Series X controllers, not quite as small as the controller, but imagine that with more height and width and you’ll get a rough idea on the size. It’s lighter than an Xbox controller as well! The brightness left much to be desired! 150 lumens is its rating and unfortunately only really good for near pitch black situations. It’s not unusable in something less than that as you can see in some of my pics, but the darker the better for sure! When I was first setting it up, it was around 7 PM in May and sunset is around 8:30ish this time of year, so not too bad. I wish it was a little brighter though! It does have a range of sizes it can handle, but the bigger the screen the less bright it gets. I have an 88” projector screen and I thought it was perfectly fine for that size. I did shine it on my ceiling and I’d imagine that being over 100” and it was still visible with not optimal lighting. What I enjoyed about using this was the versatility of the sources, anything with an HDMI output, your phone (iPhone or Android), or a USB stick can be used. I used my S24 Ultra, my wife used her iPhone, and I used my laptop to get an image and they all worked well. It has sound built in, but it’s not very good! It sounds like a gaming laptop speaker, tinny, and not very good, but luckily you can pair bluetooth speakers to it, which we did. We paired our Bose portable speaker to it, and it sounded great! There wasn’t any noticeable latency between the happenings on the screen, vs what audio was pushed out from bluetooth. So we were happy with that and it didn’t distract from the experience! Speaking of sound, the fan noise is loud, but I quickly forgot all about it during scenes with a lot of action, sound, music, etc., but the moment it got quiet, I did hear it and kind of pulled me out of the immersion of the movie. It wasn’t egregious but it definitely was notable. Long story short, it’s not perfect, but for what it offers… I am genuinely happy with especially for my use case which is family time in a faux movie theater! Oh and one last thing, I was able to use a battery power bank that I use for my laptop and it was able to get through a kids movie on battery without issue. So for even more portability, you have that option, campers!

The Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo is one of the most surprising products that I've reviewed. I have used LED projectors in the past and found them too dim to be useful in all but the blackest of rooms, and given the price I assumed the Leisure 470 Neo would be more of the same. Totally wrong there, this is actually bright enough that I can use it in my living room or in the backyard at dusk (in the shadows, but still). *Setup* I purchased an inexpensive indoor/outdoor screen to go along with this projector. I mounted the screen, connected the projector to my 300W solar generator, and attached a Fire TV Stick to the HDMI port. Sitting the projector on top of my solar generator, the height was just right for my screen height. Adjusting with the remote is super easy both for focus and basic keystone (only up/down and not left/right). I also set up the wifi, which was very easy with the remote. *Highlights* The resolution is 720p which to me is just fine for the use case here. With a temporary screen I'm not expecting incredible detail especially at 100" screen sizes or more. Mirroring my screen from an android phone and iPad was easy although with the iPad I had trouble getting full motion video to work wirelessly. With a dongle to HDMI there was no problem. As a frequent user of these features in my business life I don't expect AirPlay to work for that 99% of the time so this wasn't a surprise to me. Another surprise was the onboard speaker. While not loud enough to use outdoors by itself, inside I thought the speaker was surprisingly powerful that you could do a quick setup and watch something without using an external speaker. I also tried projecting against a wall and my ceiling and found the image bright enough to use, if you don't have a screen at all. Finally, it works for projecting images in your windows for Halloween or Christmas animations! *Lowlights* Really the only complaint was not being able to adjust keystoning for left/right, so I did have to make sure the projector was able to sit in the center horizontally to the screen. Vertically the adjustments worked fine. Given the extremely low price of this unit, it's hard to expect a lot of frills but a case would have been nice. *Summary* If you have a screen already or are looking for an inexpensive projector for a cool Halloween window animation, the Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo is AWESOME.

Really nice mini projector. I was surprised at how compact it is. Upon opening the package (comes very well packed and protected) I found they include a long cabled power adaptor, a IR remote control and a HDMI cable. The projector itself is very compact and sturdy, does not feel cheap at all. I was surprised at how many ports and options it gives you for connectivity. It has a HDMI port so you can plug almost anything that has an HDMI out (streaming devices, PC, consoles etc). It also has an USB port so you can plug a flash drive in example with some movies or pics in it to project. It also has a speaker/headphones out port so you can plug external speakers or headphones (it does have an internal speaker. Onto the setup. Setting it up was easy. It does have a physical screw in the base so you can adjust the angle the projector is pointing at. You can either set it on top of a table or you can mount it. It can be mounted straight up or you can flip it or mount it on the ceiling. It does support this. It also has electronic keystone adjustments to tweak your image. Once you go through the setup you can set its Wi-Fi connection or you can cast directly from your phone. They give you detailed instructions on how to cast either an iOS (apple) or android phone. From there you can cast anything from your phone, apps, movies etc. Of course, because it also has a HDMI port and a USB port, you can plug pretty much anything into it to project. Like a Blu-ray player, streaming device, PC, console etc. Its such a versatile device. Although its "just" 720p it does accept 1080p signals, just downscale them. I love how compact and you can take it anywhere you want, that at least has AC power. I don't see this projector as a main in house projector, for that you can get any other, more expensive ones. But to take it on the go, its magnificent. I.E. you can take it camping, or you can take it outside for nice night out the backyard movie nights this summer. The internal fans are quiet and do not disturb any movie viewing. It does have an internal speaker good enough in case you forget your own, but I highly recommend plugin it in to external speakers and because it does support Bluetooth speakers, you can connect them wirelessly too! Video quality is great and very bright. Its 720p HD and its plenty enough for its intended use! The quality and versatility is this, and I am amazed at how much you get for the price!!! +++PROS+++ +HDIM port +USB port +Internal speaker +External speaker capable (either via physical plug, or Bluetooth) +Quiet fans +Good 720P HD quality +Very bright +Plenty of adjustment options during setup. +Remote control. +Can connect to Wi-Fi, can also accept cast from phones. +Lens cleaning kit included. ----CONS---- -Just 720p resolution. -Remote control is IR, so must be pointed directly at it.

This is your basic, one shot , quick set-up entertainment screen. From movies, to sporting events. Slideshows to games. This really should do the trick if you're planning a quick session or slumber party. I set this up to watch a couple movies in a demly lit room and it was more than adequate for that film session. I give this projector such high praise off of the fact that is under $200 usb, and it is really easy to set up and get going. It comes with a HDMI cable, power cable and a remote. There aren't any batteries, but I'm okay with that considering that price and they normally package cheapo batteries that'll need changing in no time. A couple of AAA batteries are all you'll need and a good bluetooth connection for your speaker. Then it's go-time. I recommend that you have a tripod on hand. I use one from my ring light collection so that it'll be high enough to aim at the screen and be high enough to walk and sit under while watching your movie or plaaying your game. Now, graphically, you're only getting like 720p res. But at this price-point, that is to be expected. If the roomm is dark enough, you will e more than pleased. It's light-weight and easy to transport. there'ss a lens cap, but no carrying bag or case. That's my only real drawback. But again, at the price-point, I can find something suitable on bestbuy.com or some othe website. I would rate it higher if it had those key features. i don't expect the greatest of pictures, because I know what that price will get me. Great for Nintendo Switch gaming sessions, but if you need 4K, you'll need to spend the cash. I am really enjoying movies on it though & i think that that is worth the price of admission.

At times, I can be a video snob. I own multiple high-refresh rate OLED gaming monitors, I use OLED TVs...I'm about quality with my videos. With that said, I have to admit, at this price point, I originally really liked the Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo Projector...that is until I struggled hard with a feature it stated it is supposed to have. This thing is small, which is awesome! Traveling with the Leisure 470 Neo would be relatively easy. It comes with a cover to block the area that projects, keeping it safe in a bag, throw that in any backpack as small as it is with its remote and you're good to go...as long as you have another device with it. Set up on this thing is super easy. Plug it up, bam. You're ready to go. Now, using it, mileage varies in regards to difficulty. HDMI, super easy. Plug in your device, you're good to go. I plugged in my PS5, it worked like it would anywhere else. Mirroring my phones...that was different. Mirroring my iPhone was easy. I followed the instructions on the device, it worked fine. Now, when I went to watch a streaming service via that method, I got HDCP issues (audio, no video). Mirroring my Pixel, didn't work. My pixel 8 Pro didn't recognize the device. I checked for updates on my phone, on the device, my phone didn't recognize it. I tried DLNA, it didn't work on either phone. Again, checked for updates, checked the networks repeatedly, turned off my cell network and used just wifi...no go. This could just be a hiccup and over time it could work, but this shouldn't be that hard. I mirror/airplay on other devices with no problem. As for video quality, it's not that bad. No, it's not 4k with the blackest blacks...but with the size of this device, to be able to just take it anywhere, pop it out and have a huge display...it's nice. Still, my issue airplaying from this device means it goes from something you can take anywhere with a screen and your phone, to something you can take anywhere with a screen, and an HDMI device. The portability of the Leisure 470 Neo combined with its price point make it something I want to love, but my issues with airplaying streaming services make it something I struggle to recommend. With HDMI devices, or maybe an external drive, it's great, but with the amount of hoops I jumped through to try to airplay to the device and it still not work, at this moment, I wouldn't be able to recommend it.

We were looking for a portable projector we could move around the house. This small projector is easy to setup, with a great picture. The picture is more than bright enough and is very clear against the wall and ceiling.

Really nice portable and compact projector with many connection options. For the size and price you get a really nice projector. The main menu is simple and pretty straightforward to navigate and understand. There is not a lot of complexity here. Lets start with what comes in the box: Projector Power Cable Remote Control Quick Start Guide User Manual HD Cable Cotton tipped cleaning swabs for the lens This is nearly plug and play. I would suggest connecting it to your local wifi if you want to wirelessly stream from a device to the projector. They do need to be on the same network for that functionality to work. Connecting to your home network is super easy just follow the steps in the setup window to locate and connect to your local network. Once you connect to the network and you want to wirelessly stream you will select that stream option from the main menu and then you can search for the projector from your settings on your iOS device to stream. NOTE!!!! I was not able to stream longer videos, the sound would work fine but the video would always freeze after a few seconds. I tried multiple devices and different apps to stream and I could not make the video work. I then switched to the HD Cable and plugged the cable in to my IOS device and the projector. Once I did this everything I wanted to display on the projector worked perfectly. All my videos and streaming content worked great. So I basically have to use it plugged in which is fine. I wish the wireless connection would have worked so I did not have to worry about cables but the wired connection worked perfectly. I was able to stream from my iOS device and a laptop (think 2nd monitor). The speaker on the device is fine if you are sitting close but do not expect this to provide any deep bass or home theater like sound. If you want a more immersive experience you will want to connect a bluetooth speaker. Once I connected my bluetooth speaker the sound was great. I tried to connect to the built in network but it requires a password and I could not find the PW in any of the documentation. So that is when I just pivoted and connected the projector to my home wifi and then it was fine. But as I mentioned before I was not able to stream any content without the video freezing. So directly plugging in the HD cable is the best route to go for me. This is a great projector for what itis, the price is great and the portable is amazing. It offers a few options to connect but I found the direct connection with the HD Cable to be the best experience. I can set it up as a second monitor for my laptop or the kids can take it and watch videos anywhere in the home. I can take it with me and travel and set up quickly to present information to my customers with ease. It serves many purposes and I look forward to using this for many years to come.

The Vankyo Leisure 470 Neo Wireless Mini Projector stands out in the competitive mini projector market with its unique features and specifications. This attractive mini projector offers more than just decent features, setting it apart from the more basic devices. Out of the box, the first tip I want to give is for the user to read the instructions. I could not get the unit to focus, and then I read the instructions and realized that the remote had the focus buttons on it. I will note that my package did not come with the two necessary triple-A batteries required for the remote. Luckily, I had a pack, so the setup was moderately simple after that, but I did need some steps to get things looking good and whatnot. In the settings tab, you can adjust the screen mode, flip, and electrical keystone. The keystone is like the trapezoidal to square width you get from projecting at weird angles against flat or unmatched backdrops. Short of batteries, one nice addition to the packaging was the inclusion of Q-tips and alcohol cleaning supplies for the lens. The picture is easily scrutinized because, first off, this is a 720P output projector with good, not great, luminosity. However, one must be very mindful that projectors require a bright solid surface for optimal display. I have another projector we got a few years ago and matched it with a high-end screen. The 470 Neo on that screen is pristine and beautiful in a low-to-dark ambient light setting. In a brightly lit room, it fairs well on that screen but not as well as you would really hope on other surfaces. The unit has a great sound output, which was surprisingly clear, with good highs and lows. I would still recommend an extra speaker which the device will allow you to easily connect to. The ability to screen mirror using an Apple device was easy through the Airplay sync. Many popular apps will not allow you to use the IOS screen mirroring and will give you an error that says you need to use the lighting cable (USB to lighting). Overall, this unit offers a good picture while projecting onto the right surface and delivers surprising audio. For the right set-up needs, this is a wonderful device and worth the five stars provided. We plan to use this for impromptu outdoor viewing sessions or as a travel companion.

This is a weird projector. With my PS4 Slim I needed to set the video output to 1080p (720p had stutter), the audio output to Dolby Bitstream (PCM was ahead of the video) and adjust the sharpness of the projector to 6 (projector was dropping video feed periodically otherwise). The projector was going nuts and had severe video feed glitches when it wasn’t processing the video & audio in these ways itself. Now it works as it should… but there is a lot of distortion in darker scenes while streaming video. I will say that it is very bright. Also, it does want a high quality cable with plenty of slack. I use the Bluetooth audio feature with no issues… that’s good because the onboard speakers are pathetic. It’s cheap… and I can tell.

I'll start this by saying, if you bought this projector, you should understand the product you're purchasing. For pricing and capability this is an entry-level projector, and what it does, for this, it does well. That said, let's get started. Packaging: It is packaged very basically, just a cardboard box and foam, no bells and whistles, it doesn't even come with batteries for the remote (AAA so you can grab them when you're checking out). It is packed well, has a lens protector and an HDMI cable, so it's an odd miss that it doesn't have the batteries, but it doesn't really matter. Installation and use: Again this is an entry-level projector, but for what it has, it's very capable. From the outset it can be connected to wifi for certain wireless capabilities (miracast), that said I'd say just get a stick to attach to it so you can use it more effectively. From settings it can also have the image flipped if you need to place the projector upside down, it also has a mirrored option which I found interesting, i'm not sure how often projectors get mirrored, but maybe that gives some individuals more options for mounting. It does seem the only way to adjust the focus is with the remote, so don't lose it. There's no manual dial on the front. The image looks good, but being that it's a small projector, the brightness is easily affected by other light, just be aware of that. Overall: It's good if you know what you're buying, it's not high end, it's not 1080p (though it's 1080i capable), but it gets the job done.
