HOMPOW Projector with WiFi and Bluetooth, 4K Supported Bluetooth Projectors for Outdoor or Indoor, 11000 Lumen Mini Portable Phone Movie Projector for Laptop, Smartphone, TV Stick, Xbox, PS5

I purchased this unit as a gift for my sister and her kids, so I don’t have long-term experience with it, I just ran it through some tests to make sure it’s worthy of being given as a gift. All too often you’ll see projectors on Amazon and other reseller sites overstating stats and under-delivering. Needless to say, after running this little guy through its paces, I’m a little sad to give it away! Connectivity is actually pretty good on this unit: it has HDMI for most modern video sources as well as a USB and SD card slot for movies on a thumb-drive or SD card. There’s also a second USB port dedicated to outputting 5V for Chromecast and other dongle-style media players. You have a 3.5mm A/V in port with the required dongle included for composite video, but you also have a VGA-in port for higher quality analog video if needed. Finally, a 3.5mm headphone jack audio out port lets you route the audio from the projector to an external source if the on-board speakers aren’t loud enough for your needs. Another nice feature this projector has is its form-factor; it’s much smaller than most name brand home video projectors. After throwing the included lens cover on the unit, I’d feel comfortable throwing this in a backpack or travel bag. The unit itself is very light weight, coming in under the 2.02 pounds reported on the item’s specifications table. The primary downside of this projector isn’t with the unit itself, but the misinformation being provided regarding its specifications. This is NOT a 4,500 lumen projector, nor is it 1080p. Promotional images on the product page list the resolution as 1280x720, while the specifications table lists 1080p native resolution and the title has the misleading-but-technically-true phrase “1080p supported”, meaning it can display a native 1080p signal, albeit downscaled. Honestly though, with this price-point resolution isn’t as significant as simply getting a large, viewable, in-focus image. Sure, there’s some brightness and color vignetting in the corners, and the screen-door effect is noticeable if you inspect the image closely, but overall I’m very happy with the image for the price I paid. The projector can handle some ambient light in your projection environment, but the less ambient light you have, the better the image is going to look. Ideally you’d want the room you were using the projector in to be capable or getting as dark as a movie theater when you’re using the projector. The provided screen is adequate. The material is fine for projection, your mileage will vary depending on how uniform you can get the projection surface. Usually that’s achieved by tensioning the fabric over a frame, and the included wall-hooks are only going to do so good of a job. If you’re handy and come up with a good mounting method, I think the included fabric should do just fine. Pros: -Excellent value for ~$100 pricetag -Diverse A/V inputs -Compact and Lightweight -Lamp-Free Light Source -Included remote not “credit card” style Cons: -Brightness & color vignetting -Washed out image in ambient light -False brightness rating, deceptive resolution in product title Ultimately, I think this is a great buy for movie nights for kids and those who are looking for the wow factor of a big screen without the high price typically associated with projectors. Those looking for a cheap home theater projector should look elsewhere, as should those looking for a big screen to watch in their living room during the day. I believe as long as you keep in mind the price you’re paying for this unit, you should be satisfied with the great value and price-to-performance this projector provides.

I had purchased a less expensive projector and was not able to use Netflix or any streaming service. This projector works great and the picture is very clear.

Great projector for the money. It came with a screen, something you dont see much from other brands of course you can also use a white wall. Their is no dolby sound support so if you have hbox max than youd have to turn it off. The fans are pretty loud but it has to cool the thing down. Theirs a cover cap to protect the glass and you can put a amazon fire stick in the hdmi port. Their no phone adapter. The native 720p. Overall good entry level projector that will at least get your feet wet in this area in case you want to upgrade at a later time.

This projector was the best family Christmas gift ever!!! We have always loved going to the movies, but since Covid has closed theaters down near us, we decided to take fate into our own hands! This projector has taken our movie nights to a whole new level, and it has been wonderful to have a mini theater in our home where we can make it a more comfortable experience for a much lower cost! The projector works great- the brightness is perfect and the color is spot on. It also focuses very well! Overall it exceeds my expectations, especially for an unplanned Black Friday purchase to give us that big “wow” gift for the kids. The screen is a tiny bit thin, but it was free, and it honestly, it does the job! It works very very nicely on a wall or solid surface as well. I think we may buy another cheap thin screen to double up for even better operation. The sound on the projector works great, and it’s amazing that we can connect our computer speakers to get an even louder boom. I also love that you can connect a Roku stick, and there’s a port that I can plug my Roku into to charge so I don’t have to run power to it. Overall, this projector has easily been one of my best Amazon purchases of all time... and I have purchased an embarrassingly huge number of things from Amazon. Haha

This is a great projector! I have an older model Hompow projector that I really like for crafting, but it quit working with my computers when I upgraded to Win 11. I contacted the company, and found that they have fast, outstanding communications and service. I was able to get the projector to work on some computers, but I have found that Win 11 glitches things randomly. They suggested that I try the newer model. I paid the same price as the older one, but it has much better features and lumens. I was hesitant about the size because one of the reasons I chose the older projector in the first place was its small size. I was pleasantly surprised that, although this projector isn’t “compact”, it is still relatively small and lightweight while feeling like good quality. I could still travel with it for my job. The picture quality is so much better than the older one also. It hooked right up to my Win 11 computer and started projecting. I do presentations for work, and I know some people are interested in projecting for movies, so I tried both, and I was VERY surprised at the great performance. Keep in mind….this isn’t movie theater quality, but still very good, in my opinion. In a bright room, I could still see my powerpoint and the movie. It was much better by just turning off the light near it, and even better in what I would call a medium lit room. I didn’t have to turn off the lights all the way. In a really dark room, it was awesome! The loudness of the sound was very impressive too. I had it all the way up, and it startled me. So, very honest review….this is a great projector that I didn’t have to spend hundreds of dollars for, and the people at the company are responsive.

The built in Bluetooth audio was out of sync with the visuals making most things unwatchable. I reached out to Hompow and they kindly offered a partial refund. The picture quality is quite nice for use in our living room and when paired with Chromecast and its built in Bluetooth audio we are enjoying movies like were at a theatre! Keep your expectations realistic for the price and this is a pretty good product.

This projector is very compact, it can be mounted using the 1/4 hole underneath the projector. With $10 tripod and fire tv stick, this would be a perfect combination for home cinema. The video output is very sharp,High contrast. The projector also have speaker inside the little body. Im considering getting a projector screen, but even without it, I have no complain about its performance. I brought this projector because we want to have something in the bedroom, so we can watch movie without getting out of the bed. Comparing with our LG 4k OLED tv, it is way larger, and if you can turn the light off, there would not be much difference! I got this projector on sale for 80dollars. It is definitely worthy investment! It also can do mirror from your iPhone or android device which is very convenient if you want to show something on a big screen.

Great little projector, all things considered. Got it because theres no space for a TV in my lounge room, but I wanted to upgrade from watching shows on my tablet. The included screen is a semi-sheer panel, but still does the job. Hooked the projector up to a Roku Express 4K+ and havent had any issues. Just make sure to use the HDMI cable that comes with the projector. As stated several times, Dolby sound wont work. Fortunately, Roku settings can be easily changed to use non-Dolby. The image is fantastic at night. Youll want to upgrade to blackout curtains for daytime use though, and a soundbar is 1000% worth adding on. Never had a projector before, but this one doesnt seem particularly loud (kind of sounds like when the fan is on in a laptop, but its not distracting).
