    If you already have a projector that you sometimes move around, you may be thinking like I did and is this a waste of money? I'm very familiar with projectors including the cheap $50-$100 on Amazon. In terms of quality this is night and day different. This projector is more like a smart tv than those projectors. I decided on this projector due to the lumens, built in Google TV, and especially the big speakers. I figured this would allow me to do outdoor movie nights or set up on a popup screen or wall easily. One of the best features of newer projectors is the clear and aligned picture due to the new technology they have. This one has auto keystone and auto focus that so far has worked every time and worked perfectly. Surprisingly I did not ever need to make a manual adjustment even though that is an option. Zooming in and out is also an option but I tend to leave this all the way zoomed out. Now the speakers are stated at 20 watts and easily beats my bluetooth portable speaker that I'm used to using. I keep it half way and that fill my whole living room and is as loud as week are surround sound system. There are multiple audio profiles that change the bass and treble. I changed it to the music setting and that seems to work best for movies and music. There is a higher brightness level you can change to. I tried it and it was a little brighter which I could notice but not worth it since the fan did become louder. The speakers, Google TV, auto focus, and auto keystone really make this the perfect projector. I was surprised that the bottom also included a screw whole for a ceiling mount or tripod mount. My kids have also used it to display movies on the ceiling and it works perfectly for that. The plug does have a separate power block similar to a laptop and then plugs into the base of the projector and then the projector rotates freely around. I have a 2000 lumen BenQ 1080p old style project and this competes very nicely in quality and resolution of the picture. That's mounted permanently as this is one I will be moving around and using in different rooms of the house. One thing that took a little to get used to to, the remote has auto focus on the left side and volume on the right. My tv remote is volume on the left so I ended up adjusting the focus on accident and then I would just use the auto focus to fix my mistake. This is just something I had to get used to. The other thing is the seller, I never heard of the seller before but I figured with Best Buy they could help if I had an issue. I ended up receiving the package quicker than I get when I order from Best Buy as the seller. It was protected in a separate box so no issues in that aspect.

    I'm absolutely blown away at how good this projector is overall. I have two other 1080P projectors that are also newer. Those are the type you mount and tend not to move around. While those do produce good picture quality, this Aurzen produces the same quality picture but in a compact easy to move around projector. Setup was a breeze, plug it in and aim at the screen (or white wall) and the projector will auto focus and keystone for you. My other projector does this as well, but does a horrible job, whereas the Aurzen pretty much locked in onto the perfect picture. The remote also has a manual focus control so you can dial it in even more. I logged into my google account and all my apps were logged in and ready to go. The system does need a firmware update so make sure you complete this during setup. The google TV works just like any other device. It loads apps and menu settings quickly. It is really easy to use, and you can even cast your device to the google tv. What really blew me away was the built in speakers. All of my other projectors have built in speakers and while they produce sound, I would never use them to actually watch a movie or tv. I figured the speakers on this would be a gimmick and wouldn't be worth using. Thankfully I was 100% wrong. The built in speakers are fantastic! They sound way better than any TV and are on par with a good Bluetooth speaker. While using at a higher volume level they still produced quality sound and really make this an all-in-one projector. The video quality is also very good, however in full light it does look a little washed out like most projectors. In a room that does not get full sun I was able to watch movies with little to no issues. The less ambient light the better the video will look, but it's nice that this one can still be used even if there is some light. I really like that you this projector is an all-in-one package as it makes movie night inside or outside a breeze. We set it up in our sunroom that has sloped ceilings at night and watched movies. The ceiling has some texturing but that didn't take away from the fantastic picture. We are excited to be able to take this with us when we travel to our camper or friends' houses as it's so easy to move around. Overall, this is my favorite projector as it produces a great picture and good sound. If you are looking for a projector that is good for movie nights inside or outside this is the all-in-one package I would get!

    The last time I bought a projector to watch movies with was 2010. I can see now how the technology has changed. One key benefit of this over other projectors I used is the auto focus. When I first plugged it in, the screen cycled through sharp and blurry a couple times before identifying the best setting and staying there, without any manual adjustment. The built in Google TV is another big benefit. On initiatl startup, I scanned a QR code and used my Google app to set up the internet and streaming subscriptions without entering passwords with a remote. It also has input for plug and play if I wanted to connect my laptop or nintendo. Some other notes: The acoustics from the built in spearkers are strong and clear. The swivel is convenient to adjust how high I want to project on the wall. The included 2 year warranty exceeds industry standards. I'm still looking for the optimal spot to project generally, but I like the portability of it to take along to a friend's house for movie night, for example. Overall it feels solidly built, so I'm also not worried about transporting it around. I've tested in overly lit conditions and am surprised how clear it still is in a daylit room with not smooth walls.

    The projector's autofocus and auto keystone are both great features. Even when moving the projector it will autocorrect. It is bright and the audio quality is good for a projector of its size. The image quality is fantastic and will work great on just a plain wall. My favorite feature is the Bluetooth speaker function. Sometimes while doing chores I just connect my phone and just listen to music. The screen goes black and I can just listen to my playlists. The remote'snl built in Streaming buttons are great for quick access to proplular steaming choices like Netflix and YouTube. Great value for the price, and at that low cost you can't pass it up.

    I’m really happy with this purchase. It was super easy to set up, and I didn’t need to plug in anything extra. The picture is bright and clear, and the sound is surprisingly good for such a small device. I use it in my bedroom and it feels like my own mini theater. I love that I can watch Netflix and YouTube right away without any hassle. Honestly, it works better than I expected.

    After having a problem with the sound on the first projector that I recieved and the compay sending me a new one, I was absolutely blown away with the projector. The set up was as easy as it gets taking only a few minutes from taking it out of the box to logging in to Google TV. I love the tilting stand where I can point it at the ceiling and watch something while in bed if I want to. The optics are very sharp and the auto focus works very well. Sorry about the pics, I didn't pick an image that had good color. What really impressed me was the sound, which for a small projector, really came through. I was even impressed with the bass. If you are looking for an inexpensive projector that you can use all your apps with, I would highly recommend this one.

    This is really excellent projector for the price, very bright with exceptional sound quality. I agree with the other reviews on here that they have really perfected the auto keystone and focus with this projector which is so nice not to have to mess around with that. love the google tv connection- logging into all the apps is so easy. This is definitely the latest advancement in user friendly projectors that do not disappoint and they are really working out all the kinks. Great experience overall.

    Pros: -I like the look of this one. It has a slick black look to it. It is very easy on the eyes. -I like that it comes with a stand already. The last one I reviewed did not have a stand with it and one needed to be purchased separately. The bottom of the stand also has a place where you can just screw it directly into the ceiling if you choose to do that . The convenience of the stand is definitely something I appreciate. -it is nice that it can also be a Bluetooth speaker. It was relatively easy to get my phone to connect to it (however it was a few extra steps that I’d like to have done to get it to play, I’ll detail that more later). -the auto focus and keystone features are great! I moved the projector around a few times and it focused automatically very quickly. Once it is in its final place, it shouldn’t have to focus as much, but it is nice if you want to move it around to make the screen bigger. -I like how there is the option to play from in front of or behind the screen. This will be helpful when we try it outside and see how it works from there. -I like how the input ports are hidden. You have to remove a little rubber stopper to get to them, which is nice to keep dust out. It also keeps with the slick look. -I like that it can also be used as an Alexa device from the sounds of it. I didn’t try that feature out but I did enable it which is nice. -the integrated and included apps are nice. It came pre loaded with Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Video, all of which were easy to sign into. I didn’t have too many complaints on the projector but I will list them below. Cons: -the sharpness and crispness isn’t all the way there on the edges of the picture. It isn’t a big deal and probably not noticeable with the picture, but when I was setting it up and signing into apps, you could tell the text was a little bit fuzzy on the sides. -the Bluetooth speaker is a really neat feature, however it is a little bit cumbersome to get to. You have to go to settings, then all settings, and a few more clicks to get to it. It would be nice if there was a shortcut on the home page. -I would like for there to be some batteries included in the box for the remote. It isn’t a big deal for me because we have batteries lying around, however if I had to make another trip just to get them I would be annoyed. It seems like most other electronic devices come with batteries but this one didn’t and I don’t even see on the box that it says batteries not included. Overall, I am a big fan of this projector. It looked great at various distances and was super easy to operate. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a projector.

    I really love this projector a lot. I bought it so we could watch movies outside when we have a fire, but the portability was so good we decided to use it in our bedroom the rest if the time. Just put it on a shelf in our room and boom, had an 80” screen instantly. PROS - image quality, sound, portability and setup. The unit auto focuses very well so take it from room to room or outside and it’ll adjust perfectly and fast. The sound was good for a unit this size which was surprising. Setup was super easy and logging into all the different services was as easy as pointing your phone at the QR code and opening the individual apps. CONS - the only con a found so far is the fan is pretty loud. I dont notice it when you turn up the volume to blast a movie, but I could see it being an issue if i was trying to watch something and keep the volume low. Not worth knocking it down a full star, but i dont think I’ll be watching anything while my wife tried to sleep any time soon. If you’re looking for a great projector and a good price, give this a shot. I’m very satisfied with it.

    After extensive use over the past 10 days, I can confidently say this projector exceeds expectations. Setup was remarkably straightforward, thanks to its all-in-one design with popular streaming apps pre-integrated. The image quality is outstanding—bright, crisp, and highly detailed, with no noticeable lag. A particular standout feature is the reliable auto-focus. Having previously struggled with projectors that lacked sufficient brightness, I was pleased to find that this model performs excellently in that regard. While the initial cost may be higher than some alternatives, the seamless user experience and superior performance justify the investment. The value for money is exceptional, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a high-quality, convenient projector.

    Little Form Factor - Big Movie Screen

    I just got the Aurzen Smart Projector and it’s a game-changer for movie night. What sold me was the built-in Google TV, which means I don't have to fiddle with streaming sticks or extra wires—I just turn it on and log into Netflix or YouTube right away. The auto-focus and auto keystone features are truly fantastic. I can move the projector a couple of inches, and within seconds the picture snaps back into perfect focus and straightens itself out. Total setup took maybe two minutes, which is awesome when trying to corral little ones for movie night. The picture quality is surprisingly bright and sharp for a projector this size. The 500 lumens do a good job, especially if the room is dim, and the image looks great even just on a plain wall. Plus, the built-in speakers are loud and clear enough that I don't always need to hook up my soundbar, which is a huge bonus for portability. If I had to complain about anything, it would be the fan noise. It's noticeable, especially during quiet scenes, and the projector does tend to get warm after a while. Overall, it’s a great little machine. It’s light, super portable, and makes setting up an instant home theater incredibly easy. It's been perfect for taking out to the backyard or bringing over to a friend’s house!

    Excellent Movie Night Projector

    For movie night, this is the best projector. The speaker is clear and high-quality, with no noise, and Google TV OS runs smoothly. It's also a good choice for console gaming. The only downside is that daytime use isn't ideal; even with blinds, a darker room is needed, and the cooler runs and makes noise in a quiet environment that you can notice.

    I was going to use the projector as a Christmas gift for my in laws, but my daughter convinced me she “needed” it. She absolutely loves it. She likes that it easily tilts and can be projected on to the ceiling above her bed. She also likes how easy it is to stream stuff. My husband and I were both surprised how good the internal speakers are. This is our fourth projector, and it is by far our favorite. Guess I will be buying another to use as a gift.

    I have used several projectors in my lifetime and I can say without a doubt this is the best all-in-one I have used, out of all of them. These speakers on this portable projector kind of blew me away. I am super happy with the sound quality and the built-in kickstand. The screen quality is good and the autofocus is nice. Not to mention having Google TV built in which just is the cherry on top.
