This projector is small and easily portable. It does a wonderful job with pictures, the images looked great. The only complaint is that I wish the bulb was a little brighter. Otherwise we love it and therebis even a nice travel case included to protect it when we take our show on the road. An excellent offer for the price and the company is quick to answer questions and resolve issues. Thanks!

Very nice clear and bright imagery. So far so good!

5-Stars! I liked it so much, I bought 2! Excellent Projector! Yaber has done it again! I’ve owned and reviewed a dozen+ projectors, including the previous Yaber Pro Y8 model. I’ve been a returning customer with Yaber for years, and I can confidently say that the NEW Yaber Pro Y9 2023 model is an overall improvement, and perhaps one of their best projectors to date! The most notable is the new 160000:1 contrast, and 450 ANSI chip, which makes this projector bright, and in-depth with color! Its also noted that I’m able to focus the screen image much easier with the Pro Y9 than the Pro Y8. The picture quality is very crisp and clear! To put the Pro Y9 in context – I’ve recently purchased a new 85” OLED TV, and the Pro Y9 produces a bright screen that is comparable at a fraction of the cost! (check out the video results below for validation). Important – The Pro Y9 features an overall improvement with the included video profile settings (ie: standard, vivid, soft, user, etc.) The Pro Y9 allows you to customize the video settings with the “user” profile, so you can calibrate the video settings; accordingly. I noticed this feature limited in the previous Pro Y8 model, so I’m happy to report that everything is here with the Pro Y9 2023 release. Also, the profiles are very distinct from each other, and worthy to cycle through to check-out for their various applications. Moreover, the aesthetic design of the projector itself is slick and very cool looking. Compared to the Pro Y8, the actual shell of the Pro Y9 looks more aesthetically pleasing and beautiful with its white top, and gray bottom. I know this part won’t mean much to some, but considering I’ve reviewed nearly a dozen of these things, I’d say this is the best “looking shell” in my overall collection. In many ways, this is probably my best projector to date. Here’s why: Similar to my other reviews, I ran several tests to include key stone correction, tilt, short-throw, image color correction & customization, aspect ratio correction, Bluetooth connectivity, and lag testing for gaming consoles (PS5 & Xbox series S); respectfully. Im pleased to report that all features worked incredibly well, and there were no issues. There doesnt appear to be any notable lag with modern gaming consoles. I projected on a 120-inch screen, and the image quality looked flawless as if I was in a movie theater! No video stuttering during streaming (Please refer to the video and images for reference). Its also noted that the built in speakers are actually pretty good. You can also connect it directly to a Bluetooth headset or sound bar. Personally, I connect my speakers to it via headphone jack for a (hard-wired) connection, while indoors. However, outdoors would be perfect for Bluetooth to support portability. The projector is small, compact, light in weight, and the fan is quiet. Here’s the thing – the fan is super quiet on this model. I actually didn’t even notice it. This is an important factor, because sometimes fans on projectors can be distracting as it competes with noise, inadvertently creating undesired “ambience”/“white-noise” in the room. This is not the case with this projector. No worries. The projector is easy to move around, and perfect for a camping trip or a night under the stars (you will need a power source). In addition to gaming, I used a few sources to include the usual: 4K streaming (firestick), Bluray discs, DVD discs, vintage laserdiscs, and vintage VHS tapes. I tested a little bit of everything because I wanted to see how the comb-filtering worked for any upscaling, especially for old media formats. The image quality looked superb in all formats, and did not disappoint! You can also mirror and stream directly from your smart phones. Amazing and convenient! The projector features an AV composite in, an auxiliary line in, 2 hdmi ports, and 2 usb ports. I give the projector 5-stars! You will not be disappointed, and can purchase with confidence. Overall, I’m pleasantly surprised on the amount of improvements with the Y9. It took me a couple of nights to play around with all the settings and become familiar with the upgraded features that best suit my home setup. If you enjoyed the Pro Y8, then you’ll love the updated Pro Y9. The upgraded chip improves on the brightness, and provides smooth play-back. Considering, I’ve reviewed nearly a dozen projectors with Yaber and other companies, I would consider this model to be top-tier for 2023. I liked it so much, I bought 2! I highly recommend this projector, and give it 5-stars. Great choice!!! Get it, and be happy! :)

Project is a great value. Great quality for the price. Carrying case and included cables a bonus.

Good quality, great sound, and easy features. Will use more through out the summer

I really wanted to like the YABER Pro Y9 projector, but in the end it came up short for my needs. PROS: Well packaged, well made, fairly clear instructions, keystone control works well, inputs are good, excellent value at a Black Friday price of under $200, relatively quiet, and fairly short throw capability. Video projected was sharp and clear (see below) and bright enough out to an image size of about 8 to 10 in dark rooms or at night. I think that the projector would be fine for its primary intended use of projecting video for viewing. CONS: Not nearly as bright as I personally needed for low ambient light room (one use I have is projecting images on canvases or walls for tracing and creating art). Colors appear somewhat washed out even in a dark room, even after adjusting to their best in the settings. There is also a high level of automatic contrasting applied that somewhat reduces the clarity and detail of the input video source -- while this can be adjusted to some degree, I felt that it did not represent the source image/video as well as I required for my own unique purposes. As it didnt meet my specific picture requirements, I chose to return it and will look for another projector.

I primarily use it to practice my musical instrument by connecting musical apps on my phone. Having a large screen makes it incredibly convenient to follow the beats, surpassing the experience of using my laptop or phone. Although I encounter occasional lags, its something I can easily tolerate.

**(addenda): I have to say that Yaber has excellent customer service. When they are reached to bring up any issues you have with a device, they will go out of their way to make it right. My projector that I had just purchased was faulty and the company offered to replace it immediately and will work with you to make sure that you are satisfied with your purchase. Customer service is friendly and easy to work with and always quick to respond. (Annie is great…was very helpful, polite, and quick to respond. Best customer service I’ve had in a long time). My device was faulty upon arrival but they offered to replace it with a new one. There are faulty units of every device that is produced. That is just life and reality. The real test is whether a company will work with you or not when you happen to be the “lucky” person to get a faulty one. Yaber is one that will and I appreciate it. Original posting: The image does not seem to clear up when taken as a whole…as in you can get the top of the image to clear but the bottom will be off and vice versa. I have played with all of the settings and corner adjustments until I just couldn’t do it anymore. The sound is nice. I have been unable to cast from my iPhone 12 Pro Max to it yet which is frustrating. I am using an Amazon fire stick to get any kind of use out of it. This was a purchase I have been wanting to make for our family for two years and had the highest of hopes for it. I looked at tons of projectors in this price range that people seemed to love. I feel bad for the image quality my family is getting. I am now seriously considering returning it. Yes I understand it isn’t a $3,000 projector and I should not expect it to give IMAX movie projector quality images, but I had hoped that it would give a bit better image quality than this. I wish I could say that I love it.

I recently purchased this product, and I must say it has exceeded all my expectations. The build and the picture quality is great and it was eazy to set up. Overall, I am absolutely thrilled with this projector. It has transformed my home entertainment setup and elevated my viewing experience to new heights.
