Title: A new small inexpensive projector
Post by: tom b on February 07, 2018, 04:06:54 am
A very interesting projector (https://handygoodies.com/4667-2/?utm_source=outbrain&utm_term=CNN&utm_content=An+HD+Miniature+Projector+10+Times+Cheaper+Than+a+High-End+TV%21&tid=zsqkf5a7aba0d1779b390164406).

I'm not sure if there is a market for it or if projectors have had their day

Maybe a resurgence of the 'slide show'.

Cheers,

Sounds too good to be true.

I've never been pleased with the beamers I've used (Canon, Epson).  I used them for presentations during workshops but always found color management lacking or difficult to set, brightness was always an issue (the rooms were never sufficiently dark).  A real PITA.  In the end, I lugged around my 42" plasma TV and synced my MacBook via Apple TV.  Not ideal, but nicer than my previous experiences and I didn't have to consnatly excuse myself, "sorry, I can see it on my screen, but you can't via the beamer".

Who knows, this beamer may be a wonderful exception.  :-\

They had me at “projects a native 320X240 image”.
As seen on their website.  8)
