I tried everything to play from my iPhone including purchasing a cable that was almost as expensive as the projector. No. Roku. No. Lg K10. Uh uh. The one thing that worked was i bought an $11 smart tv box. That worked but by that time i had missed the superbowl which is what wanted it for. I returned everything and bought a smart tv microprojector for much less from a competitor. A. Say no more. It works.

I purchased this item to present a 3 min slideshow for my daughters graduation, and the projector did not work. It kept saying waiting,we tried for over an hour to get it to work. My daughter was very dispointed. I would not recommend this product at all. It's a wast of my money, good thing I was able to return the item.

Another underrated product made by insignia. This is only about 2" by 2" by 2" & gives a beautiful picture. We use this in conjunction with the insignia outdoor inflatable screen. The battery life will get you through a full movie as well, perfect for outdoor viewing, just set it up on a tripod and start watching. Works with android units as well as every iOS and macOS product as well as Apple TV.

I was in need of a projector to display my laptop for colleagues, and thought that perhaps I should buy a laptop with a built-in projector. Until I came across this product, as now I can "plug and display" anywhere.

I've tested many pico projectors and this one has outstanding performance for the size and price. It's so small and light that you can throw in a bag and forget it's there.
However, you have to manage your expectations - compared to a full size projector or even a more expensive pico projector, the performance is much lower. You must use this projector in a very dim or, ideally, a completely dark room or outside at night.
The resolution is low but the optical quality is high so the image is sharp and crisp, despite the fact that it is only 640x360 resolution. Video content and games look good, but I don't recommend using this for powerpoints, spreadsheets or documents - anything with small text - the resolution just isn't high enough for that.

Not bad for what it is

Honestly, it's cheap, has terrible sound, and not useable after 10ft. But for $150, and in a dark room within 10ft its clear and I don't have a problem reading small text.
Yeah colors aren't great, but c'mon, how much are you really expecting when you go into the store asking "what's the cheapest projector you got?".
You get what you pay for, and I think this thing is dope.

It's great! I wanted this to use for movies outside with the kids and it's super! I couldn't find out how to hook up Bluetooth but figured out that you had to push a certain button on phone/iPad to make it work! My only complaint is why no auxiliary on the device itself? Seems like something that could've easily been added. Would've been 5 stars if this had an aux!

This picture is good in a dark room. The internal speaker is useless unless next to your ear. The manual says that somehow a bluetooth speaker can be used but I could not find a way to stream to this projector and a bluetooth speaker at the same time. Its either one or the other. Ive tried on iPad, galaxy 7 phone, iPhone and i couldnt find a way. Ive read reviews on people saying they were able to but ive tried forums, google, went to best buy and couldnt find a way. So movies outdoors is out of the picture. If someone out there knows a solution please help.
