A great projector but mine has one major flaw

The design of this projector looks amazing in person! The size is moderately small, the clear casing around the speakers looks reminiscent of the Apple computer designs of the early 2000s, and the exposed speakers are a nice touch.
My biggest pro is the built-in Google TV platform. Typically I connect a Roku stick to my projectors, but with this, all I have to do is plug the projector in and turn it on. No extra cables or devices necessary. Also, I love the audio quality. This projector sounds better than just about every other brand. 20W of sound from the 4 speakers doesn’t sound flat like others. It has depth that makes the sound fill the room. Definitely a plus!
My biggest con is how long it takes to auto-focus and the inaccuracy of the auto-keystone feature. This probably would not have bothered me if I didn’t own an Aurzen BOOM 3. Auto-focus is really slow. I mean REALLY slow. I could count to 30 before it was fully focused. Not sure if I have a defective unit, but it definitely shouldn’t take that long. Especially since my BOOM 3 fully focuses in a matter of 3-5 seconds. Auto-keystone was also an issue so I ended up turning that off.
I need to check with Aurzen to see if there's an issue with my particular unit regarding auto-focus & auto-keystone, but other than that, this is a great projector if you’re just getting started and need something with really good brightness & image quality, and that’s easy to move around. The picture quality and resolution on this projector look amazing compared to other brands I have owned! If you’ve never owned a projector, or if you’ve owned a projector from another brand, you’ll definitely love what the BOOM Mini offers. Although, if you’re trying to decide between the Aurzen BOOM 3 and the BOOM Mini, I'd say go with the BOOM 3.
Pros:
-- Great image quality & brightness compared to competitors (I’ve owned other brands)
-- 20W speakers sound great
-- Google TV eliminates my need for an external HDMI streaming stick
-- Attractive design makes me want to show it off
-- Image still has pretty good visibility in moderate lighting (doesn’t require complete darkness)
Cons:
-- Very slow focus (30+ seconds) and problematic auto-keystone
-- Google TV loading times can be slow
-- Initial setup can take 15+ minutes
-- Power supply uses a massive brick, similar to a laptop charger (instead of the typical 2-prong cable used for most TVs and projectors)

I am so happy with this projector.First impressions: The shipping was lightning fast, and the box feels so high-quality. You can tell a lot of care went into this product. The color of the machine itself is soft and really pleasant to look at.
Using it is a breeze: The built-in system is a game-changer—no complicated setup at all, just turn it on and you're good to go. It can tilt up and down, which is super handy. The picture is sharp even on a plain wall, though we love using our projector screen for backyard movie nights with the kids. It's become a wonderful family activity.
Final verdict: Amazing value! It's affordable, looks great, is simple to use, and delivers a clear picture. What more could you ask for? I'd definitely recommend it!

I just opened a new projector and I absolutely love it! The menu is really quick and responsive, and the sound is surprisingly loud and clear—I'm really impressed! The picture quality is very high. Even in a room with daylight, you can clearly see what's happening.

The adjustable design is so great that I can take it to the backyard or bedroom to watch movies and play them.
The operation is simple, almost plug-and-play, and the built-in app is sufficient to obtain various media resources.
The picture and sound quality match its price.

I wanted a projector because I heard it is better for the kids' eyes. Also, I love the flexibility of moving the projector around. So I can use it in different rooms. I would say this is a fantastic little device that delivers impressive picture quality and seamless streaming in a compact package. Setup is quick, the interface is smooth, and the built-in smart features make movie nights incredibly convenient. The picture quality is clear. I am very impressive with the quality of the sound. I would say this is a great alternative to tv and fits budget

This projector is wonderful! It is so compact and light which makes traveling with it or rearranging where you put it in your house a breeze! I also really love that you can angle it how you wish. There's pretty good range with how far up and down you can tilt it and that coupled with the built in base gives you a lot of room to play with when setting it up. I don't even need to put the projector on a stand or platform for how I use it in my own house and there is absolutely no problem with being able to see the picture clearly. And speaking of the picture, the quality is fantastic! I just project onto a white wall with no screen or anything and the picture is amazing, its better than some TVs I have had. The sound quality is also great from the built in speaker, but I have also hooked it up to a bluetooth speaker and that is easy as pie. The projector comes with built in apps but it is very simple to hook up a firestick or AppleTV box and use it from there as well. Overall I find this is a great product, especially for the price.

This projector is extremely user-friendly. This is a quality that is very important to our family when purchasing and keeping a new product.
It took only three steps to set up, and the remote pairing was completed in three seconds. The clarity of the projected picture and the quality of the sound are both top-notch. Being able to choose how to project from this - on a table or suspended from the ceiling - helps to make this projector versatile.
We look forward to projecting Christmas movies on this over the holiday season. The only thing that would make owning this projector better is if we had a Google TV to use it with.
We will definitely be recommending this projector to family and friends!

Wasn't sure I needed this with my mounted Sonicview, but the Aurzen has become my go-to. Auto focus and keystone work perfectly every time - just point and it's dialed in. The 20W speakers shocked me - they actually sound great and fill the room. Google TV setup took five minutes. Picture quality rivals my mounted unit, and the portability is perfect for moving between rooms or outdoor movie nights. Kids love projecting on the ceiling. Solid build with threaded mount for flexibility. Highly recommend for anyone wanting portable without sacrificing quality.

Awesome little projector. Brighter than the projector I replaced it with, with better in-built audio. The swivel stand and auto focus make setup a breeze (vs. having to adjust a leveling screw on other projectors). The inbuilt smart features are a plus. For a projector of this size, in this price range, this Aurzen projector can’t be beat.
