I use this projector outside to watch movies and sports using my Roku. I can get the the picture up to 65 inches with out being blurry. Sound quality isn’t great but I use a jbl clip 2 speaker for sound.

Got this on a hurry because the meeting room one failed, the projector has a battery bank and good enough picture but it is NOT bright enough. You can actually use it up to 100" (55" recommended in box) but the light is dim; in dark rooms it's very good, includes a mini speaker too.. worked fine on my presentation and have it as a backup

Should know before buying this Projector:
Not a replacement for TV.
Not a replacement for Projector. If you're looking for the cheapest replacement don't buy this.
You need a really dark place with very low light for the better experience.
USB out is only for charging not to play video/music
Rated 4 for AV quality is good for the price, Compact in size and Easy to use.

Only 4 Stars for a Huge Reason

This portable projector is awesome! It just simply work! It’s battery operated and has audio capabilities! It’s great! But one VERY big issue is the brightness. This projector is way too dim. Probably part of the reason it is cheaper. There is no way of adjusting it and it’s almost got me making this 3 stars. (Minus 2 for the brightness alone because it’s almost unusable in some situations.) It needs to be completely dark for the picture to be good and bright enough. Other than that, great device!

It is OK for the money. Extremely Small and Portable. Built in battery is a plus. However the picture quality is not so great.

I bought this projector while I was in the hospital waiting for girlfriend to recover from surgery. We watched Netflix off of it and it worked out great. We were impressed by the quality of picture and size. This worked out so well and was better then watching the limited channels the hospital had. Two thumbs up.

This is worth for the price you are paying. If you go beyond 50" you will loose some clarity. The sound is OK. I bought a tripod for $10 on amazon and was using as a mount and hooked up a speaker to this projector. So all together a decent projector setup around ~ $130

When I purchased this I did so to help me with teaching my basketball players fundamental skills because I was recovering from an ankle surgery.
I was excited because it fits in my pocket and I could project large enough for my team to see.
I just wished that it had the bluetooth built in so I would not have to use a cable from my phone to the projector.
For the price it did the job.
I can't really comment on the battery life because I have never used it to watch a full movie.

Although the room needs to be dark to have a clear view. It has helped me in simple presentations in small rooms. Which is what I needed plus it’s size and weight are awesome. Already have way too many files and copies to carry around.

I figured the quality would be so bad on such a cheap gizmo that I'd regret paying for it, but really, it works great at exactly what it's advertised for: Small room, a few people, 50-inch width

Small and convenient projector for when you need it. We purchased this for my husband to use for his work meetings on the go. I wish the quality was a lil crisper and the screen could get bigger.

Good projector, performs well in ideal situations (dark room, white screen surface, and up to 40ish inches) but starts to really struggle in even low light situations and at larger displays. It also has somewhat of a lag, so its not good for video games or high resolution movies, they seemed to have a weird blur to them. Given the size and simplicity of the product, it's a good buy for someone on the go.
For the price though, you can probably get something better online, I just didn't have the time to wait 2 days.

We needed a small projector that would fit easily in a suitcase. This one was a low cost option that worked but the room needs to be very dark for it to show up well.

this powerful little projector can fit easily in your computer bag and still project a clear image 8-10 feet. Like any projector, it takes time to focus and clarity is better with no ambient light.
Still, great product. So easy to have impromptu presentations. Wish I had found this sooner!
