> 24 hourThe M18 v1.0 is probably one of the best budget projectors on the market. Its picture quality is great (so much better than $100 budget projectors), its brightness is decent for most room lighting conditions, and its sound quality is good. The fans/motor noise is loud, but you tend to not notice it after a couple of weeks. Strategic projector placement and external speakers may help. Otherwise, I’m very happy with my purchase and would recommend any native 1080p projectors, and specifically M18, to any friends/family looking for a mostly enjoyable projector viewing experience. Breakdown incident - after unplugging it for the holidays (~6 days), we plugged it back in and suddenly it wouldn’t turn on. We troubleshooted with new power cord and using other outlets, but still no power (besides faint green light on power button). After communicating with customer service via email, they kindly agreed to send us a new replacement projector free of charge. We’ve had it for a week now, and things appear to be working great again. Long story short, when the projector works as expected, it’s great; when it doesn’t, JIMTAB support will help you troubleshoot and eventually take care of you properly, so it’s great then too.

> 24 hourWorks as expected and advertised. The picture quality is nothing short of superb! The picture quality is superb, even early in the evening when its not so dark. The picture obviously improves as the night grows darker. The internal speakers provide ok sound. I connect my Bose Soundlink Revolve to the headphone jack, which provides movie theater quality sound. Definitely worth the money!

> 24 hourI have wanted a projector for a long time. After doing a lot of research and shopping around, I finally decided to buy this one. This was a wise choice. Im glad I bought it. By looking at those pictures, you can tell how clear it is. Clear imagine with a great price. Believe me, You wont regret your money! This is definitely an item that has improved my mood. I can lie in bed and watch TV on a big screen. It also has a nice plastic cover, so when I dont use it. I can cover the lid, so the dust wont get in. Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase.

> 24 hourThis projector is perfect at its price point. The pictures is bright, it colorful, sharp and the sounds is great. Currently I have it projected on a textured wall and it still shows great nice and bright. Sitting on top of my headboard I havent had any issues hearing it and I keep it on level 30 for sounds and it can go up to 100. I am glad I purchased this projector.

> 24 hourFor the price it is good. Fairly cheap and it works as advertised. However if you want real quality I’d recommend coughing up a couple extra hundreds and clearing your head. I bought this to get a cinema-like feel for my house and I was departing from the traditional TV setup. However, it isn’t incredibly picture accurate. You can tell the colors are warped -though not in a massive sense- and the darks are too dark. That’s annoying but livable for the price. BUT the real deal breaker for me was the fan noise. It is really noticeable especially coming from the controlled environment I set up. I will admit that the speaker in itself is very loud and covers it up well and made me regret buying a sound bar but using the sound bar the fan noise is too noticeable and irks you during the movie. Overall, I believe it is a great budget projector but not so great general home theater projector.

> 24 hourThis projector is amazing. I got it as a gift for Christmas. It looks super big and bright on my gray wall and the sound quality is good too. You cant see it that well when the lights are on but thats a given. You can also adjust the quality. I use Apple Tv for mine but Im sure you can connect it to a phone or Laptop.

> 24 hourI debated back and forth on budget projectors. Many of the comments/questions had answers that took both sides of the things I was asking. So .... here is my side - Fan Noise: Using outside, I didnt even know the projector was running it was so quiet - Brightness: Excellent. Even with some ambient lighting it still had a quality picture. Once dusk hit. WOW - Throw: A bit closer of a throw that I wanted, but that does also mean it will cast a large picture from further back - Sound: Its there, its ok, youll want speakers. Good in a pinch in a quiet room. I didnt buy it for the sound - Versatility: Has all the plugs and connectors - Remote Control from Front/Back: Yep - Customer Service: SPOT ON and PROMPT Cons (more nitpiks): - having to adjust the lens for the cap is a pain, but it is what it is

> 24 hourThis product provides me with a good environment for watching movies, and it supports several input methods, including mobile phones, computers, memory cards, and so on. If you are a person who often watches movies and TV, this is worth your purchase.

> 24 hourBought this projector after only doing a little research online and am content with it. Even in medium lighting in my room, I can make out enough of the picture to see what is going on but that is just the nature of projectors, an already bright room will decrease picture clarity. Overall very pleased with this projector and feel it was a pretty good value. Wish Id have done more research to find one that would automatically adjust the picture because it really limits where you can put it and have it work. If you put it at an angle to the surface it is projecting on, the closest side will be smaller than the farther one. There are a couple manual adjustments you can make to focus the lens or tilt the screen but neither really helps enough to make mounting it point at much of an angle a viable option. Originally I wanted it in the corner of my room but quickly learned that wont work unless I wanted a lop sided screen so I ended up buying a ceiling mount and putting it on the ceiling where it works great. Ultimately this was my fault for not doing the research so I am not holding it against them. Overall, good projector and if you understand the limitations and can work around them, this is a good buy. > Best in darker rooms > Needs to face directly at the surface it will be playing on for best results > Semi noisy fan but it is a projector, easy to ignore once you get use to it > Can flip its orientation to accommodate being mounted up side down or on either side > The remote and construction seems of decent quality

> 24 hourLove this projector, I was skeptical on buying one with so many budget projectors that I ran into this and saw reviews on youtube as well and dam this thing is worth it, very happy with my purchase, very bright, sound is pretty good as well , fan noise is there but the sound blocks it out which is a plus
