literally the best thing i’ve purchased from amazon. i was really worried with all the 50/50 reviews and pictures that didn’t look good. but in person it’s amazing, it’s just the fan on it can be pretty loud but i honestly drowned it out most of the time.

**Updated review I definitely have to change my review somewhat on here. After I posted my first review, the company reached out to me, and offered a newer, updated version of their projector. It has bluetooth capabilites, etc. Now, while this projector was a little more difficult to set up, due to everything being in Chinese, and requires mirroring on your phone, I managed to set it up. Picture was good. However, if you use your phone, plan on not being able to use it, if youre having movie night, as it will (obviously) mirror what youre looking at, seeing, etc. I did not love trying to set this up and get it going. It may be easier for someone else that is tech savvy. BUT, I did reach out to the company with my new review, told them my issues, and they gladly refunded my money. The customer service was phenomenal, and they were patient with me, as it took me a few days to try to use the new one (due to work and trying to move). With all this being said, I would Not hesitate to try to buy from them again!! They kept in touch too see how things were going, and when I told them my issues, they were on it!! Again, maybe Im just not technically inclined, and may work easier for someone who is. Regardless, thumbs way up for their awesome service!! I honestly thought I was buying a projector with Bluetooth in it. Somehow after researching and reading reviews..I missed that it did not. Swore I read that it did. So thats on me. I have not taken it out of the box until last night, after purchasing it Months ago.... to realize its not what I wanted. I had to take my firestick out of the TV and hook it up to projector, etc. Its not super loud, but Im sure you could connect to a speaker to make it louder, especially if youre gonna use it outside. Picture is just OK. I wouldve returned it, had I set it up immediately and used it. Again, on me. So I will just try to sell it, and look for a different projector with Bluetooth, etc. The reviews were good, and trust me, read a lot, on a lot of different projectors, and decided this was would be good. This was is not for me.

*Update 2* I received a new projector as promised and it is working very well. My family and I had a movie with popcorn night over the weekend and had a great time. As before, I hooked my laptop to the projector via USB and used a Bluetooth speaker for improved sound. It was awesome! It turns out that the new projector also supports wi-fi connections! I havent had a chance to try that out, but look forward to enjoying the added functionality. Thanks TMY! Updating to 5 stars for the quick and professional response to my issue :) *Update 1* TMY contacted me about my broken projector. They have offered to replace it and are shipping me a new one. I will do a second update when I receive the new projector and have a chance to test it out. For now, I am upgrading my review to 3 stars for the excellent responsiveness. *Original Review* Seems to be a disposable projector. Bought this in October last year to show a video outdoors for my wedding anniversary. It was AWESOME!. Have use it several times since for an outdoor movie and in my daughters bedroom when she was home sick. In total, way less than 50 hours of use. The lamp is supposed to last something like 60,000 hours, but no! NOW - It wont turn on and the little red light next to the power button is flashing. This apparently means that the lamp is ready to burn out and needs to be replaced. TOO SOON! There is also a complete lack of information about how to replace the lamp and I cannot find a replacement lamp anywhere, online or otherwise. I wouldnt mind replacing the lamp, but now it looks like I have to buy a new projector. UGH! Be warned, this projector will disappoint.

Ive seen a plenty of budget projectors that talk a big game, but then fall short when its time to perform. I was pleasantly surprised at how this projector performed in my initial setup! It displayed a pretty solid picture during broad daylight in my garage, which as you can see, does allow PLENTY of daylight. So I was impressed with that. But of course it really shows off its capabilities at night in the same area, and Im confident will hold up to any outdoor evening entertaining that I might do this summer. Im looking forward to movie/game/fight nights on a budget with this device, and Im confident that you will too! Now in full disclosure the sound in this projector leaves a little bit to be desired but honestly that should be expected. More than likely whatever media device (PC, media player, streaming device, etc) youre plugging into this projector can be connected to an external audio device so thats a very minor hurdle to jump. Other than that, I say enjoy your evening of entertainment with this projector!

This projector is excellent for the price. I paid $99. (A $20 coupon was available for some reason which brought it down to $99 from $119) For night-time viewing with no grand expectations you will be pleased. It got a genuine wow from the wife and kids. Theyve watched a few hours on it so far with delight. We have an Apple TV plugged into it. NOTE If you are the kind of person that will fret over non-premium features then you may need to step up to something at least 6x the price (but ideally >20x the price) to avoid triggering your nerves. This is a fantastic budget buy... dont buy it with the wrong expectations. SOUND: Like other reviewers I expected garbage sound quality from the internal speaker and was therefore surprised that it was similar to a half-decent little portable USB speaker. I plan to use external speakers but the internal one didnt get any negative comments from the initial audience (of undiscerning family members) which is a pleasant bonus. Great to just be able to throw up a movie with almost zero setup. FOCUS & KEYSTONE: It has a mechanical keystone. You shift a roller and it presumably tilts one of the lenses inside (probably all-plastic internal components made with the kind of manufacturing tolerances youd expect at this price point). On the plus side, this mechanical keystone means you can quickly straighten up the image on the wall +/- 15 degrees. However, you will discover that the image cannot be uniformly focused when keystone is being used. If you use keystone you will have to focus the center of the image and tolerate some focus imperfection at the top and bottom of the frame. The focus is also a mechanical roller. Even at a perfectly level projection angle (i.e. no keystone, where the bottom of the projected image is precisely in line with the lens of the projector) you may need to tolerate some minor focus imperfections. I dont use any keystone on mine and the extremities are less crisp than the rest of the image. I can notice it when projecting text (e.g. the text at the top-right of the Netflix interface) but it is minor and doesnt impair the experience watching tv/movies. When I pointed it out to my wife she didnt care. Nobody cares. If you buy this expecting optics developed in a Swiss engineering lab with professional grade tolerances you should probably take another look at the price... its not than kind of product. THROW SIZE: There is no mechanical zoom. We have it mounted on a wall in a room that is 11 feet to the opposite wall (i.e. the *back* of the projector is 11 feet from the projection wall). At this distance our image has a diagonal of ~106 inches. There is a digital zoom function in the menus that let you reduce the picture size... probably at the cost of some fidelity. Good to have that feature in a pinch but we arent using it. BRIGHTNESS: At 11 feet out the brightness is decent for watching at night. That is all that we want it for. Again, the wife and kids were stoked. You will probably not want to use it with the lights on (washes it out) and certainly not in any daylight, so dont buy it to replace an all-purpose TV. Also, dont try to make side-by-side comparisons with your LCD/LED/OLED TV... contrast in dark scenes will be far inferior and brightness in general will be far less uniform. If you project an entirely black screen you will see a range of slightly lighter and darker areas. Again, nobody in my house noticed or cared and I was happy to count the money I saved. To get a projector that will work with lots of ambient light and produce a very uniform brightness you really need to jump a long way up the price ladder. What you get out of this projector is very solid for the money. MANUAL & ACCESSORIES: I havent tried out the included basic projection screen. Its a soft fabric with eight metal eyelets around it (one in each corner and one half-way along each side). They ship it with 8 plastic hooks and 8 tabs of double-sided tape so you can mount it on a wall without drilling. It has a black outer border. Seems fine. Nice touch including it... adds to the crazy good value of this product. The remote is fine (uses 2x AAA). They include all the cables you need: VGA, HDMI, power (US style). They all work. The included manual is clear and covers most of what you might want to know. TMY invites you to contact them by email for support. I havent needed to do that yet so I cant say how responsive they are. OTHER COMMENTS Fan noise is comparable to other projectors of this size (in my experience) and so is no cause for special praise or complaint. Were happy with it. I cant comment on the color fidelity etc. because Im somewhat color blind. All I can say is, you see vibrant colors, there is some image configurability in the menus and nobody had anything bad to say about the colors. Im sure if you started testing its color space youd find all kinds of limitations but... again... nobody cares. Ive asked my teenage son what he thought of the color just now and his answer was I dont think any of us have any problem with the projector dad. Its great. TMY *are* incentivizing reviews on Amazon by offering a gift. There is a little insert card in the box along with the manual. It says Happy with this purchase: 1. Share your experience by leaving an honest Review and then it shows a picture of five stars. So I guess they are not specifically asking people to leave a five star review to get a reward but they are hinting at it pretty strongly. They also say Not happy with this purchase: 1. Please give us a chance before you leave a 1-3 star review on Amazon or return the product and then they ask you to please contact them directly to get a solution/replacement/refund etc. I think its kinda fair enough? Not much different to what hotels do to try getting their online reviews up. Id decided to leave a review before I saw this card... I mention it in case people reading the reviews would like to know of potential influence. I have only had the projector a couple of days so I cant comment on longevity. They do claim to offer a 3 year warranty. I will update my review if it bombs out though. SUMMARY It works and its mind-bending value. How can you produce something like this profitably for $99 let alone ship it and let Amazon take their cut? Taking the family out for dinner and movie (back when that was allowed) would easily consume that amount of cash. I just hope it lasts. Very happy so far.

This is the third video projector I have purchased in the past few years, and having worked in movie theatres for years I am well aware of what light output is required for acceptable presentations. An indoor auditorium of average size (40 diagonal screen) usually used a 2000 watt xenon short arc as a light source when projecting 35 MM film. Drive-ins used to have carbon arcs that were far more powerful than that for the 100 foot wide screens that were often used. Fast forward to home projectors. The old 8 MM movie projectors with 25 to 50 watt halogen lamps gave a tolerable image on a silver screen about five feet wide. We got used to it, as 16 MM film was expensive for home use. For a toy home VIDEO projector this one is OK and significantly better than an 8 MM film projector in a number of ways, but there is a problem with the brightness of the output as described. This explanation may get a little geeky, but in the end you will see why the ratings given to projectors are useless. The consumer is led to believe that the brightness of a projector output is rated by a standard measure of lumens. There is some deception in that. A real lumen, as described in my ancient high school physics book is The amount of visible light flux which falling normally on one square foot of area will produce an illuminance of one foot-candle. Translated, light a common candle made of whale fat, hold a sheet of paper that is one foot in height and one foot in width exactly one foot away from that candle, and the light falling on the paper is (Ta-Da!) a foot-candle and a lumen. Two candles - twice as much light. Simple. Look at the box a light bulb comes in. Somewhere on it will be a lumen rating. As an easy example, an old 60 watt screw-in incandescent light bulb puts out about 600 lumens. So since this projector claims to have 7500 lumens it should be super-bright, right? It is in fact no where near capable of outputting that many lumens. I mentioned that I had purchased three video projectors. My main one is a solid BenQ projector with a halogen lamp similar to one you might see used in an art gallery to illuminate a painting. That projector has a rated output of 3,000 lumens. It projects onto my 14 diagonal screen with a brightness that is easily equal to what I was used to in movie theatres. I have been more than satisfied with its performance. My second projector purchase was a little Crenova I bought to play around with. It is an LED projector (meaning the light bulb in it is a long lasting and forgiving LED) and has a rating of 1200 lumens. I would put that rating as inflated, but would not be surprised if it in fact put out 800 real ANSI lumens. I knew it wasnt going to be great shakes. Now we come to the projector in this review. It is rated at 7500 lumens. To compare the three projectors, I just now projected the same movie from the same source onto my 14 diagonal screen, using each of the three projectors. The BenQ, at 3,000 lumens filled the entire screen with gorgeous brilliant images, even with ambient light. The little Crenova, at 1200 lumens made a barely acceptable image on about half the screen (8 diagonal) This TMY projector, brand new, put out an image that was about twice as bright as the Crenova, but less than a third the brightness of the BenQ with a six year old halogen lamp in it. So what is going on? The definition of lumen is the problem. The BenQ, I suspect, used the original definition of lumen in an honest measurement environment. The little LED projectors use a different lumen called an ANSI lumen. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) decreed a different lumen measurement to be used in evaluating projectors. Unfortunately, rather than calling the new measurement SquintHard or something other than lumen, they co-opted the name, and stuck an ANSI in front of it. Carton designers have no reason to know a lumen is different than an ANSI lumen, and lumen gets stuck on the box and in advertising today. So what is an ANSI lumen? - apparently whatever you want. Supposedly it is the noticeable difference between a 100% white, a 95% white, and a 90% white that a projector puts on a screen in nine different locations, where the differences are just noticeable, with the screen size taken into account via a formula. Try to get the actual IT7.215 ANSI spec sheet and you run into a paywall. Gee, how consumer friendly... I cant say that a 7500 (ANSI) lumen rating is a lie, but I can say that some people in product testing are troglodytes, eat lots of carrots and can see in the dark, while most of us slog along as average folks with developing cataracts and other issues. Bottom line - do NOT believe the ANSI lumen ratings of any of the LED projectors as a meaningful method of comparison. My BenQ projector uses almost 300 watts in operation, with the bulk of that going to power the lamp and cooling. If you want light out, you have to put power in. If you want bright, understand that you may need to trade off and accept some bulk and heat. OTOH, if you want an inexpensive toy for kids or to use on a back porch while you swat madly at mosquitoes until giving up and going inside, the LED projectors may work for you. Ill keep this one because of A: the low price, B: A slightly easier menu system than the Crenova, and C: for jokes, like projecting ghosts on Halloween. I wont be using it to project Lawrence of Arabia or start a drive-in. I am deeply disappointed in the lack of brightness compared to what was advertised, but not overly surprised. If chocolate bars and cereal boxes can shrink in size for the consumer, why cant light?

When we first received our projector set, we were amazed at how nice it was at such a low price. Great sound, Clear Picture, and compatible with our amazon firestick. We loved it in the beginning. But after about a month the projector suddenly stopped turning on. You could hear the motor noise running on the inside but the picture stopped projecting. After filling out the warranty information, the company reached out to me apologizing and sent me a brand new updated projector for free. This one is even better, more clear and it connects to my bluetooth surround sound system!

When it comes to finding a reliable and cost-effective option for home entertainment, this Projector stood out above all others. The fact that it arrived equipped with an incredible 100 projector screen (upgraded to 9500 lumens) and support for full HD 1080p blew away any prior notions I had about budget gear. Furthermore, being able to connect and operate from my tablets and smartphone devices streamlined functionality perfectly - just plug n play! Trust me, for those wanting a compact yet powerful setup that doesnt break the bank nor sacrifice image/sound quality, this little gem of a machine should rank pretty close to the top of your shopping list. Can confidently vouch for its worthiness.
