Deeeecent for price
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: SlimSpady

When you keep in mind this is projector that costs less than $100 canadian dollars, its a great value. I purchased the logitech z606 computer 5.1 surround sound for about $150, a roku Sitck for $60 and got a deeecent movie night set up for $300. Friends of mine thought it was high def, and being old enough to remember when 240i or 480i was the norm, so this projector is pretty good. I find a lot of reviewers buy a chevette, then complain its not a corvette. The factory speaker is what one should expect for a low priced unit, it works but is not bose quality by any means, so i hooked up some surround sound computer speakers, and it sounds great now. All things considered, its good for the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

the sound isn't great in projectors so I got cheap 20$ speakers with great sound. The fan is a bit loud but most projectors have fans and can hear but once movies playing i don't hear it. The picture is pretty good, I had it on laptop, and can see like squares, its not 4k or anything, but u can see it pretty good still even when I turned the lights on. For under 100$ its a great little thing for kids esp cause it's cheap if the kids end up breaking it somehow its not like super expensive. I got a decent size image. And it adjusts angle well. The size of the image, where I placed it was still a pretty big picture probably 100inch. Looking fw to some popcorn theatre nights!

Best Buy lists incorrect specs
on January 1, 2020
Posted by: Steve B
from Newfoundland
This unit has a native resolution of 480p.
It is "1080p compatible" which means it can take that as input, but it will only be 480p on your wall.
It is a great unit at a great price for the specs listed on the box - but Best Buy needs to correct that mistake.

Halloween projection

Honestly I only bought this for a Halloween decoration for my front window, quickly downloaded some spooky window pictures online and loaded it into a USB stick and, boom. It worked for Halloween, lots of adults were asking about the projection, it was a pretty big hit for the house.
Easy to set up/use

Does what it's supposed to, for around $100!

For around $100, I like what I got. The picture is pretty decent, for dark room. You cannot use it during the day in any Sun light unless you cover up windows. I use it to watch movies at night. Speaker is loud, but there's no bass of course. You can add a sound system.

It’s decent
on April 28, 2020

This projector is decent it’s not 10/10 quality but it does the job I have it hooked up to my Xbox and it’s fun. The sound is very poor so I suggest getting a speaker it has an aux port in it so it’s easy to connect
