NEBULA by Anker Capsule Max, Mini Projector with WiFi and Bluetooth, Small Projector, 200 ANSI Lumen, Projector Portable, Native 720p HD, 8W Speaker, 100 Inch Picture, 4Hr Video Playtime, Home Theater

This is the best projector with this price.I bought Anker Nebula Capsule Max 1 year ago. At first I used it for movie night, which was great. Then to protect my kid's vision, I set it up for my kid's online class (as all known, last year, the kids stayed at home and spent a lot of time for online class ). It worked very well: video is clear, and voice is clean, easy to set up, and low noise. After 1 year heavy usage (more than 4 hours every weekday), it is still perfect.I recommended it to my friend, and my friend asked me the question "Long ago I looked at the cheaper ones around $70~$100, but never bought one. What are the differences that set a projector far apart from another in prices?"This is what I replied him:I tried 3 different projectors, the price varying from $130 - $550.This one has the pros compared to others:1. It can automatically focus, otherwise every time you move it, you need to manually focus again, which is way too hard ( the $130 one is like this ).2. The noise is much low. When I put the $130 one beside me, it is like a small airplane flying beside me but never goes away.3. It is small and easy to move, easy to set up. The other two I tried ($130 and $500) are both heavy and large.4. The battery is good, and lasts long.After using this 1 year, I wrote this review and highly recommend this to you.

Having a home theater for years with a dedicated projector system, I was skeptical of this little device… However, I was pleasantly surprised by the portability and convenience on many levels. At 200 lumens, it was bright enough to work in a wide variety of lighting conditions and surface angles. I would not go less than 200 lumens in anything but a really dark room, or a text-only presentation.Originally I had planned to just use it as a HDMI projector from my iPhone or laptop, but I was pleasantly surprised by the self-contained streaming apps that truly turn this into a standalone (battery-operated, Wi-Fi) TV.Being completely self-contained, we were able to place the unit laying in bed and project a widescreen TV on the ceiling… There's always plenty of open ceiling so there's always a wide screen available! I did not test the four full hours of battery, but it had plenty of power to last through a full feature length movie. While the audio is not stereo, it is loud enough and directional enough for television watching.The first thing that I did when I opened the box was to perform the quick and simple software upgrade from the menu… There was an update available and it took about two minutes.I was surprised at how well the device performed on multiple services, the X direction and Y direction keystone correction allows for the unit to be placed far off center and still produce a properly proportioned wide screen picture. Sitting on the corner of my desk, I was able to project a 25 inch virtual monitor on the wall and have it quite reasonable. This would be a great Device for the Road warrior both as a second monitor and for presentations.The airplay works well from an iOS or OS X device (it also supports Android versions of wireless screen mirroring) – but like many AirPlay devices, it's not the fastest refresh rate … so I would really only recommend it for displaying photos from your iPhone. The only thing I would add, is a easy zoom in function, this would be relatively easy to do in a software upgrade. The zoom and can be accomplished with the Keystone feature, but it takes some practice.Overall - very impressive - very happy.

Let me start with the negatives. First, this thing is on sale all the time so I would not pay full price for it. Even on sale, it is too expensive for 720p. Also, I wish I would have spent a little more to get a brighter projector.Speaking of brightness, even though I wish it were brighter, I am surprised by how well you can see the image with ambient light. It’s not necessarily enjoyable, but you can watch something with this indoors with the lights on.Size is the biggest virtue here. It’s easy to take anywhere. Easy to find a place to set it up. However, there is no lens cover so I’m compelled to keep it in its case, which adds additional cost and negates much of the size advantage. There is only one official case for it and it is a square that is much larger than the projector itself.The other great thing is the speaker. To me it is perfect for taking a minimal setup with us to the garage or on trips. It’s not audiophile quality nor does it provide a cinematic experience, but it is better than it has any right to be considering the form factor. Also, it is easy to connect to a Bluetooth speaker.I almost sent this back to exchange for a Nebula Cosmos, but my daughter was already in love with this. The size is great, the performance is great for the size. I wish I could have compared it to the Cosmos and the Xgimi Mogo Pro or even the Mars Pro before purchasing.This thing has brought a lot of joy to my daughter and me, especially since we can’t make it to the theater for the foreseeable future. So in that regard it has been worth every penny.

This little projector is by far the best one I’ve owned in terms of performance, picture quality, sound, size, and ease of use. I love that I can use my phone to control the navigation and can simply download and sign into apps, directly through the device, simply by connecting to WiFi. Being able to use my phone type, the tilt feature via the stand (bought separately), and auto focus are absolute game changers! Fully plan on packing this little, but powerful projector everywhere with my family for summer!
