Anker NEBULA Cosmos Laser 4K Projector, Portable Projector with 2200 ANSI Lumens, Android TV 10.0, Autofocus, Auto Keystone Correction, Screen Fit, Home Theater with Wi-Fi & Bluetooth

I still use my 10 year old 40 inch 1080p TV which doesn't have any smart features and only 2 HDMI and a USB socket. Adding the Amazon Fire TV box makes it modern yet compared to many of my friends with their smart 65 inch 4k HDR TVs I knew I was now missing out. However I hate waste and didn't like the idea of just ditching my TV for the sake of an upgrade and am lucky to have a large blank wall in my small flat. At the fraction of the cost, as in not spending £3k+ on a 65-70inch TV, this projector provided me the perfect solution. I could set it up specifically for movies, or take it to friends for the recent football games. The image quality for the 4k UHD content I have is superb when protecting to 80 to 100 inch surface ( I couldn't go bigger has wall and room isn't large enough) with vibrant colours, and with curtains drawn even during the day you really get a better home cinema experience. The sound for general viewing is OK, though I do use my headphones if by myself through its mini stereo jack, or through my hifi amp. I personally didn't need to use the Android TV device after setting it up since I connect my Amazon Fire TV box in through the HDMI, and unfortunately you do need it if you want to use its inbuilt USB reader and to download another navigation app. However if you can get by with the single HDMI like I do, most times I unplug the Android TV attachment. The auto positioning works well at the very beginning, though I often go to manual focus, and it is super quiet to run. Excellent device I hope will last me a good few years to come.

Absolutely love it!Some of the interfacing with other apps eg BBC not straightforward to sort but I managed to do it. The picture is huge and it is a wonderful way to watch films. Powerful enough during daylight (just). I got it at a reduced price which I felt was the right price so I’m perfectly happy with it all round…

Not that good for how much I dropped on this.The bluetooth isn't great, drops out all the time...so bought an ultra high speed hdmi cable for it. Youtube played fine, spotify was great, but Netflix, Amazon and Disney +.....more than rubbish. Netflix. Solution to play original English rather than English 5.1. This meant the dialogue would play through the speaker I connected to the projector.But Disney and Amazon nah. These guys are defaulted to 5.1 sound. The only way any dialogue on these two will play is if you select visual explanation English....absolute guff.Sick of ultra expensive high end compatibility issues.Didn't matter what I did, I couldn't get dialogue to play in Disney and Amazon.So, I had to go back to drop out central via Bluetooth. Picture is amazing, speakers are a tad tinny hence hooked it up to a soundbar. At this point...forget it. You have been warned.

Small, compact, and very quiet (if you take it out of conference mode). For the first few weeks we were like ah ok put up with a not the quietest fan which you really only noticed when no content was playing, and then we discovered to turn off conference mode, and now the projecter is properly whisper quiet such that I can no longer hear it even when it is only three feet behind me. Great for evening viewing, or dark room during the day. Not so good during the day. For the price I can delay my watching until the evening, and listen to music or read or garden or walk during the day.

Well, let me start with the fact that this device is almost 😅 amazing. Internal sound speakers are quite good, the image quality is also amazing(the only thing that is amazing).But then we get to the not so good points; you don’t really have full control on the image, the fact that doesn’t have an optical zoom smashes the image quality; why? Because all the time when you want a bigger screen you need to move around with the projector, and if you setup on the best distance (if you’re like me) sometimes I like to get on to “TV” mode and use a smaller screen size, you get the option to make it smaller but then you get this halo light around the image because there’s no optics to do that but is made straight from sensor and all the light around that portion of resolution stays (that won’t effect too much on daylight cuz you won’t be able to see it, but who’s watching on a projector unit with the lights/curtains open?) there’s a picture attached, y’all know what I’m talking.Plus they have the promise of auto adjusting image and autofocus, they’re not working as promoted, actually almost every time you have to readjust the image after turning on.Another good thing is that is silent, and is a biiiiig ++. But when you go to sleep, if you have it in a bedroom you still get the loooooooong humming till it gets to sleep, even if you shut it down (that I didn’t get it at all).I bought it because I’ve seen dozens of reviews on YouTube and I was really convinced. After it came and tested it, I went back on YouTube and reviewed the reviews, guess what? Majority of them were sponsored by Anker/Nebula. Total disappointment.The device is of good quality, it’s nice, it works great other than the mentioned above.Oh, almost forgot, another annoying thing; if you need to get the image a bit higher for example 1.5m to 2.3m you need to raise the device to not get the halo around the image through their non-optical adjustments.
