Movie night upgraded
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I researched many models, and this one was a win for me with blutooth connection, HDMI, and a remote to adjust the sound from your own speakers. I set this projector up in my small bedroom. At about 8 feet back it makes around an 80-inch picture. (The further back you place the projector the bigger your picture will be.) No background screen needed! We just project it onto the white wall. My kids love to lay on the floor with their blankets or on the bed with me and have family movie nights. The picture is crisp and clear at night with the lights off. At sunset the picture is just okay. Says 720p, looks 1080p. Realistic coloring. Fan is very low, really can't hear it. Sound from speakers are lousey, but I hooked up my megaboom speaker via blutooth easily for great sound. Mouth is off sync slightly, but I've read there's an adapter cord that can plus into most blutooth speakers. It's not enough off sync to bother us though. HDMI hookup allows me to hook up to our blu ray player or Roku box. I've read in a review that LG batteries are not replaceable and once the battery dies you can't use this unit anymore. Battery life depends on how often you use it, but dies out at only about two years. So, I won't be using the battery for this. Best Buy warranty may be a good option for those wanting to use the battery. The two pictures I attached show sunset (blinds closed) viewing versus completely dark. Pros: HDMI port. Remote. Bluetooth to hook up a small speaker. HD. Crisp clear picture. Quiet fan. Tiny and portable. Cons: Poor speakers (this is for most projectors under $1,000) Has to be in a mostly dark in a room (That's most projectors). Possible battery issues in the future.

Decent little projector
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was very excited to get this projector as it would be the first one I owned. I have one at my job that I had to use every day so I was slightly familiar with using a projector. So the main reason I was excited to get this LG projector was because of the small size and it being able to be easily moved around and carried and used anyplace. The size of the projector is perfect and it projects the image on any surface. I was very amazed at how clear the picture was! Not to mention the size of the image you can get with a clear picture was very impressive! Another great feature was it could be plugged in or there is a 2 hour battery life so incase you want to project where you don’t have an outlet, no problem! And 2 hours gives you enough time for a whole movie! The only negative thing about this projector which I hate to say is a big deal is the sound. You have to hook this up to another sound source so if you don’t have a speaker(s) you are out of luck. Even with the sound on full blast on the projector you can barely hear it even sitting right next to it. If LG could fix the sound quality then this projector would be perfect. So I had a speaker I hooked up to it and it worked great. It was a little inconvenience to add a speaker to it but at least the sound with the speaker worked great with the projector. So minus the sound issue this projector is amazing and I would recommend it especially for its price!

Convenient Portable Projector
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The wife and I bought this for backyard movie nights and so far it has not disappointed. I love how small and compact this projector is and the set up was SUPER simple. There is an HDMI port to connect to Roku or any device you want. We mirrored Youtube videos from the phone and sports and movies from the PC rather than using HDMI or USB. I was impressed with the picture. The audio is not really loud but luckily you can connect it to any Bluetooth speaker which is a major plus. Since the projector is portable, you do not need the remote with it however, the remote itself is super easy to use and it is nice and slim. As with most projectors, you need a dimly lit room (or outdoors) to fully enjoy the picture. I wish the projector had a keystone adjustment left and right. This would allow us to adjust a skewed picture with the projector to the left or right of our sitting location (it does have it up and down though). That was about the only function missing that the big projectors have. In the end, its a small miss considering all the other advantages this little thing packs!

Movie Nights Just Got Better!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Outdoor Movie night just got better with my LG PH30N CineBeam projector. It's a great projector to stream It was really easy to set up, the projector is compact and light weight! The quality of the projection is good when the lights are off you get a beautiful clear picture, if the lights are on the picture colors would get faded out when watching a movie. The projector is really easy to use, plugs right into a HDMI or USB cable to stream to the projector. I just plugged in my USB flash drive to look at my pictures, I also used my phone or my IPad to stream and watch my movies. The projector has a 2 hour built-in battery, audio is clear and smooth, Bluetooth sound out built in speakers or you can connect speakers for a much clear surround sound. The projector has a resolution of 1280x720p high definition with up to 100" screen. Every home should have one, makes outside movie night much more enjoyable.

Pocket size awesome projection
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally, I got the LG CineBeam Projector i have been waiting for so long. I was surprised to see how small and portable the projector was. I was using an older version on the LG LED projector before which is almost double the size than this. So was a bit skeptical about how it will project. There are quite a few features it performs that the older version couldn't. The battery backup. This one by far my favorite. So, I took everything out and started setting it up. It was evening by the time I figured out how to connect the sound to my Bluetooth speaker and how to screen share via laptop to the project. Now time to relieve the project display. So projected it on the wall and the clarity is amazing. There is no need to darken the room. The brightness of the project is superb. It projects on a big screen like. It has an easy feature like the Battery backup for two hours, a project to focus, wireless, and Bluetooth support. the other major improvement I observed is it doesn't get heat up or make noise. Can mount it anywhere as its very light in weight. We found the remote was really helpful to the on/off the projector. It has easy navigation to setting and volume control. New feature I found is its has front and back projection feature in it. We projected it on a white wall and the clarity is amazing. We are able to read the CC as well so, imagine how good the clarity is. I have been watching all my shows on the projector. I won't opt for TV when I have a good projector at home. I am able to view my shows in the morning hours as well. On the window of improvements side, I see that the audio volume on the projector is a bit low, and also USB-C support would be a game-changer. #LGTechInsiders #freeproduct #InsiderStories Overall it's a very good projector from LG that can be used both indoor and outdoor without a power supply. Pro: Small in size Big projection Easy to charge Battery back up Easy to focus Portale Easy remote access Cons: The audio volume is low. Screenshare connectivity can improve. Missing USB-C support

Great, portable projector
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing does exactly what you'd expect from it and it does it well. It is not 4k. It is not super bright. But for a budget projector, it works well. The image is HD and you will definitely need to have a somewhat darkened room for it to look good. It is super, super small and runs on battery if you wish. It has an HDMI port to connect your roku, or whatever device you want. It also connected to my bluetooth speaker for audio, which works well. The audio was off, but they have a setting to tweak the audio delay. It does allow for you to throw video right from a phone or laptop without the HDMI. It isnt chromecast though and it basically mirrors your phone. Doesnt work as well as chromecast, but it does work. I havent tried to watch a movie that way, but I assume it works. I just have a roku hooked up to mine. Also thinking of hooking a mini Sega or NES system up as well. This is for you if you want to have a projector that you'll use from time to time. Probably not best if it is your only TV in the house -- the quality isn't 4k and you'll always need a dark room. but for my purposes, it is perfect!

Movie night out
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great projector for outdoor movie night. My family and I were looking for a safe and exciting way to fulfill our weekly movie night at home rather than going to the movies. We upgraded our old projector for the LG Cinebeam. While the projector is compact, it packs a great picture. We have been experiencing movie night out in the backyard and can even take the projector with us when e travel because it's so compact. The projector shows a great picture again the backdrop of the night sky. We connected a sound bar to the laptop to increase the movie night experience and wow! It truly is an experience. My family loves the time we spend together and I love the fact the projector can be used for work or home. Set up was easy but just like all teach products you will need to purchase your HDMI cord separately. This truly is a great product and is really easy to use. Have fun!

Great product
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have used this little weightless projector so many nights. Outdoor movies with family and friends are a click away. LG CineBeam Projector is easy to use. The picture is very clear. The ability to have up to 100 inch of HD cristal clear picture either inside or outside, is a nice feature. It has a built in battery that last up to two hours. Wireless capability and USB connector. Using the Bluetooth feature was easy and connected very fast. I really enjoy the controller. It was straight forward and easy to understand. It connects fast and easy for mirroring my phone. We love movie nights more now because the images are so clear, even outside!

Q: QuestionDoes this support Netflix Amazon Prime and Hulu ? Can you stream through Wi-Fi or do you have to mirror or cast from another device?
Asked by Jessie.
- A:Answer I just purchased this projector and it is great. At first I couldnt figure out the miracast, but I read that Android and iPhone stopped supporting that function. The way around this is to just hook a cheap chromecast up to the projector. Just get the cheapest chromecast because this projector is only HD -- it does not support 4k. In addition to chromecast, you could easily hook any other HDMI source up like a Roku stick, gaming system, or laptop. I believe the new roku sticks have screen mirroring, so that may be a good compromise as well. The projector does have a USB port that will act as a power supply to your roku stick/chromecast.
