![]() ![]() The 2,200 ANSI lumens allow the BenQ HT2150ST to put on a generally solid show in dimly-lit rooms while the support for 1080p resolution and 15,000:1 contrast ratio produces a projection with solid colors and fine details. This ratio is good as it will allow you to make a sizable projection when used in a small place such as a child’s bedroom or tent. This budget projector also boasts a 1:1.69 foot throw ratio that gives you an extra 2 feet of image for every foot away from the wall or screen that the projector sits. This model boasts incredibly low latency with just a 16ms input lag, which means very little delay from when you press a video game controller button to when the action happens on-screen. The BenQ HT2150ST is admittedly on the higher end of the cheap projector category, but It’s still worth considering, especially if you want a good projector for playing video games. Luckily the projector has a headphone port that acts as an audio output, but we opted to connect a laptop to a portable Bluetooth speaker and use that as our audio source instead. They are thin, tinny, harsh, and they blend in with the fan noise. Don’t expect much when it comes to the two 2W built-in speakers we found them basically useless. ![]() In general, we would say this projector is not suitable for business situations. The bulb is not very bright, though, and the only way to get a decent projection is in a very dark room. Surprisingly, the projection was nice and clear with decent color and contrast. We found the setup process simple and quick. We did like the carrying case that came with the projector-it fits everything inside including the cables and remote. At only 4 feet, the power cord is annoyingly short and we had to get an extension cord to use the projector. When adjusting the focus, we noticed that the lens was wobbly and did not fit tightly in the case. While there were certain design features of the Vankyo Leisure 3 we appreciated, we couldn’t help but think that the projector felt and looked like a cheap toy. Resolution: 1920x1080 | Brightness: 2400 lumens | Contrast ratio: 2000:1 | Projection size: 170 inches You can also bypass the built-in speaker by exporting your audio directly from the source device, such as your computer or streaming stick. Fortunately, the Vankyo Leisure 3 has a 3.5mm cable port which allows for a connection to an external speaker. The built-in speaker is unlikely to impress those used to high-quality speaker systems or even a good built-in laptop speaker. The 2,000:1 contrast ratio provides solid picture quality, but the brightness level is surprisingly dimmer than what one would expect from a projector boasting 2,400 lumens. However, the stand is quite small, which means you may need to prop it up on a table or desk with something to get the angle you want. Using the built-in operating system to navigate the settings and options with the included remote is pretty intuitive. It also features SD and USB ports to view media from a card or stick and is very easy to set up, whether connecting a laptop, smart device, or video game console. It comes with its own carry case and HDMI ports, AV, and VGA ports, cables, which means that you won’t need to make any additional connector purchases. Read our BenQ HT2050A review.The Vankyo Leisure 3 is a solid choice for an affordable projector with all of the usual features. Its picture is also much better in pretty much every way, so if you're looking for a projector for use around the home, or maybe backyard, and you don't need battery power, it's worth considering. Read our Anker Nebula Cosmos Laser 4K Projector review.īenQ HT2050A: The HT2050 isn't technically a portable projector at all, but it is compact and roughly the same price as one of the more expensive "portable" options. It's nice and bright, but the other downsides - lack of zoom, average overall image quality and a steep price for what you get - keep it off this list. There's also no battery so you'll need to plug it in. Read our Xiaomi Mi Smart Projector 2 review.Īnker Nebula Cosmos Laser 4K: Since it has a handle and a compact size, the Cosmos Laser 4K is technically portable, but it's hardly mini at more than 10 pounds. ![]() ![]() It's relatively dim, especially for the price, and it lacks both a built-in battery and compatibility with a USB power source, so it's not truly portable. We appreciated the compact size, 1080p resolution and built-in Android TV streaming, but the cons outweigh the pros. Xiaomi Mi Smart Projector 2: Another relatively expensive small projector we didn't love, the Xiaomi at least has a gorgeous, Apple-like design going for it. ![]()
