Lets be honest, if youre expecting a $65 off-brand projector to be cinema quality sharp and bright enough to easily watch in a room with the lights on youre not being realistic in the slightest. So what is this little unit? Well, its a fantastic "movie night" projector for a gathering of family and friends at an amazing price, but youll need to make sure you have a very dark room (or its very dark outside if youre having an outdoor viewing party) and youll also need to not be a pixel snob, walking up to the screen and pointing out "eww, I can see the pixels". Yeah, you can see the pixels on ANYTHING if you get close enough. Okay, so the description says 1080p right? Yeah, well that means it can PLAY 1080p content from a microSD card or USB drive, it does NOT mean that the internal LCD is 1920x1080 pixels in resolution. Does that mean that its not worth the price? Absolutely it is. I dare you to try to find a projector with an ACTUAL 1080p LCD for less than $300 (at the very low end). What it means is that youll need to chill out and accept that your little $65 projector is not going to be as sharp as the ones at the movie theater. Did you really think it would be?? I dont know about you but I always look forward to getting movies on bluray after Ive seen them in the theater because even the theater ones (which costs TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars) are nowhere near as sharp as a bluray on a decent LED television, but you know what makes it cool? watching it on a HUGE screen! So if you pick this little thing up you can also grab a $20 projector screen here on Amazon and have your very own home cinema for well under a hundred bucks. This thing is easy to use, reliable, sharp (for the resolution its capable of), and plenty bright enough in a dark room. PROS: - cheap - long life LED bulb prevents having to purchase super expensive halogen bulbs - tiny and easy to carry - has a tripod 1/4" thread on the bottom for easy mounting - has microSD, USB, VGA, HDMI, etc... - USB will power a Chromecast, so you can just plug into USB and HDMI and have a streaming home cinema - remote works well - goes from power on to ready in well under 10 seconds flat CONS: - you wont be watching it in a bright room, the darker the better - 800x480 resolution (just dont be a pixel snob) - manual is in chinglish and very sparse (but use your brain and figure it out, its easy)
