I bought this projector for use with my Boy Scout Troop. We have used it outside on a camping trip and inside for a presentation in a 300 person Auditorium. We are very pleased with this unit. The unit when used outdoors is easy to use and performs well. The projector has an adjustment to correct for the angle of projection to flatten the image. The display brightness is great and makes it easier for everyone to see the images. The enclosed Dolby speakers are good and emit a rich sound. The unit is small and light in weight to facilitate carrying it over long distances. AD The unit when used indoors is excellent. The sound is loud enough to project over a large room and the resolution of the display is great. The options for connecting the projector to input sources is excellent. There are multiple ways to connect the projector and can even connect via wi-fi if available. I would highly recommend this unit to everyone.

I watched a YouTube video “Best Projector under $200” , by The Hook Up channel. I had bought his recommendation on the best $100 projectors and was very happy with what a 720P could do and just had to take the next step. This however was doomed from the start as Amazon had sold out and did not no if or when they would get more. I held fast though, because of the recommendation and in about 3 weeks, it showed available. Bought it right away and could not wait for this 1080P to come in. Come in it did, boxed nicely but not sealed or taped. The plastic bag on the projector was not sealed and the remote, along with the cords were just in the box. 1st red light. I thought , was this used and returned? Plugged it in and the picture was upside down. That was the 2nd red flag. 3rd red flag was the keystone knob turned approx 5-10% and the horrible keystone effect never changed 1 bit. It was useless. The keystone was so bad, no matter how I positioned the projector stand, there was no way to focus properly, it was impossible to watch. 0 stars for the unit although it did seem very bright compared to my 720. 5 stars for return on Amazon. It was my first return and Nichole was very helpful, just had to get a QR code emailed to me and off to Whole Foods, they scanned the code and I was off, hopefully getting a refund in 3-5 business days. Just fyi, as soon as I ordered this one, the listing said not available, not sure if or when they would get more. Watch out for this seller. I would like to know if anyone else had similar problems.

I really wanted to like this projector. On paper, it seemed to have all the features I was looking for at a fair price. I own another entry level projector to which I needed a second for the upcoming holidays. As a source of comparison, both projectors are native 1080P with similar features. I read many reviews and watched videos of the same which are somewhat misleading as to this projector. Picture Quality: It is fair, but even in a dark setting with no ambient light, clarity and color is okay at best. There is color bleed and oversaturation even when turned down. Watchable but not enjoyable. Many details are lost in standard, its too washed out in dynamic and custom setting do not provide a happy medium. The focus control via remote is cool and nice to see an image to calibrate. Keystone is okay as well with a manual knob on the power button. Phone casting worked well. Sound: The biggest let down in several ways. This product markets itself as having great sound and Dolby capability. It can decode a Dolby signal but that is useless when the sound quality better on my iPhone. It has one speaker which is severely under powered and sounds rather weak. I attempted to compensate for this with both wired and wireless speaker setups, however, there is severe input lag with audio with Bluetooth as well as a wired connections. I attempted to correct via audio calibration but it still continued to lag. Also, something in the projector seems to limits the audio output to about 50% of its normal capability in external devices. I had completed a firmware upgrade to see if it would help, but it did not resolve the problem. Design/Remote: Projector itself appears well built and it was easy to setup. Connectivity is good. Menus are okay, but somewhat dated. The remove is very small(does not come with batteries) and works fine, but IR sensor lags on input. Sadly, I had to return after a week as I couldnt get the sound to an acceptable level.

Quality of the picture is very good and it maintains the quality if we zoom also..Brightness is well enough for the decent light ambience.Sound is very good and I like the clarity..Overall very much impressed...

I bought this projector for home theater in a bedroom after watching a detailed review on YouTube. The projector works great, the picture is bright, sharp and colorful. I love the remote control, its handy and feels high quality. The projector also looks better than on the pictures - the quality is great for the price. One thing to note - the ratio between the distance to the screen and the size of projected image is slightly less than our previous little Vankyo projector, so we had to put it further from the wall to have the same size of the picture - this made the projector sit

The projector was delivered pretty fast. The Packaging was really good. The Setup process for the projector is very simple. We kept the projector on a small stool by raising the single leg at the front center. We wished it had adjustable legs on all four corners. Focussing was simple with the press of buttons on the remote. Keystone correction is also easy. Since we kept the projector at center, not having a horizontal keystone didnt bother us. Throw distance is substantial - so plan to put the projector far from the screen to get a larger projected image. We found that the image size changes by 10 inches for every one foot we move the projector. The Projected image brightness is very good. We picked PJ20 over PJ10 just for the additional brightness. The PJ20 has 350 ANSI compared to the PJ10 at 220 ANSI. We thought the PJ10 might be more portable with a smaller device size. We tried connecting various sources - iPhone case wired, HDMI from a laptop. It connected seamlessly. With the iPhone, some content such as netflix, prime videos cannot be played. However, everything played when using the laptop. The sound from the projector is decent for normal use. But for movies, we connected initially to Anker Soundcore Motion+ and then to a home theatre by bluetooth.

Ive had this thing for no more than two days and theres vertical line of white thats hard to not notice after two weeks the corners are starting to go blue. Not worth the money get something else.

My family doesn’t watch TV, ever. But we do like to watch streaming shows during meals. Three people staring at a tablet can get old real fast. I didn’t want to hang a display in the dining room so I decided to give a projector a try. Having used several NexiGo products in the past, particularly cameras, I decided to give their budget projector, the PJ20, a try. It had a great deal for Black Friday which made it too good to pass up. This review does not touch on all of the capability of the PJ20, but it does cover my use case in detail. Unboxing the projector and getting the initial setup done is a piece of cake. I found a space at the end of the table facing a blank wall, setup both WiFi and Bluetooth, and got the keystone and focus set. First thing I found was that the image was tilted to the side. I was worried that the projector was wonked but when I pulled out a bubble level I found that the table itself had a slight tilt. Taking that slight tile and blowing it up to a 6’ across screen really exaggerates the effect. Fortunately, this could be solved with a notepad under one corner. Having a built in level and adjustable feet would have made this a bit easier (especially for people who use the projector on the road), but you can’t really expect that at this price point. Next thing I noticed was how the focus and keystone correction interact. This projector uses an optical keystone correction instead of a digital one. This has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of optical keystone is that you don’t end up with jagged effects from pixels being stretched or compressed by the keystone correction. The disadvantage you get is that the focus is not quite consistent when correcting the keystone. Depending on how much correction is applied, it becomes impossible to have both the center and outside corners in focus at the same time. This is not something you are likely to notice with video content (as long as you focus the center of the screen), but if you are showing computer content such as text it may be noticeable. Easiest solution here was to get the projector up higher. For some quick testing, a 20” stool (on the table) was good enough and put the image high enough to be comfortable for viewing while seated. When the image is straight on you can get good focus for both the center and the sides. Speaking of focus, any time you push the focus buttons on the remote, a test pattern is displayed that helps to make the adjustments. It goes back to your regular content a couple of seconds after you stop pushing the buttons. Now that it is ready to go, time to try out some media. First attempt as having the trusty tablet feed video to the projector using a USB-C to HDMI hub that I travel with. I’ve used it with my phone many times to throw content (including movies) onto TVs at hotels. I plugged it in, switching input to HDMI 1, and there was my tablet’s screen on the wall. Looked great until I started playing a movie with Netflix and everything went black. Welcome to the wonderful world of DRM (Digital Rights Management). There are warning on the product page about major streaming services not working with wireless display on the projector. Unfortunately, even a wired display has the same issue when being fed from an Android tablet. Services that don’t impose DRM, such as YouTube, displayed fine but if you have paid services, it is likely they won’t work. Time for plan B. I took an old Chromecast (second generation), grabbed a short USB cable, and plugged it into the projector. The Chromecast is plugged into the HDMI input and one of the projector’s USB ports is providing power. Turned it on, and after a minute for the Chromecast to boot up its home screen appeared on the wall. So, next, fire up the tablet again, back into Netflix, and this time tell it to cast to the Chromecast. Success! The movie was playing on the wall big as life. And by big as life, I mean an image that was 68” across (diagonal) at 92” distance from the projector face. Let’s talk about image quality. Unfortunately, I can’t give an accurate description here due to two factors that impeded my test. First, it was daytime and there was a huge amount of ambient light. The image was still watchable, but it was very low contrast. I’m pretty sure that in the evening it will be fine in that regard. Next up was the color. Unfortunately, again, I don’t have the right setup. I haven’t picked up a screen yet and was throwing the image at a wall which is a bit of a yellowish beige color. Despite both of these encumbrances, the image was still sharp and any text on screen was easy to read. For general media consumption, I’ve never seen the need for anything more than 1080p, which this projector handles just fine. Next is sound. The built-in speaker is loud. Loud enough that it caught me off guard when the movie started and I had the volume cranked as I was expecting the same tin can speakers that most computer monitors have. I had to dial the volume back to about 30% to be comfortable. You could fill a large meeting room with the sound from the built-in speaker. The fidelity isn’t as good as you get with a separate sound system though, so this was the next area I tried out. I have a Sony portable speaker that works with either Bluetooth or wired. Tried it out with Bluetooth first. It was easy to detect and setup but the sound was out of sync with the video. Yes, I’m on 5Ghz WiFi. This is a known issue with this particular speaker and I had the same issue when using it with a tablet, so no real surprise here. Pulled out an audio cable and hooked it up to the projector that way. Sound switched from the internal speaker to the Sony as soon as the cable was plugged in and it sounded great. With that we have a working streaming video setup. I do have a few improvements planned but I need to order (or wait for deliveries) on them. First off, of course, I need a proper screen. An off-white wall just doesn’t work right. That is on me and would affect any projector. Next up, the media source. Another Black Friday deal I ran across is a new Chromecast with Google TV. It won’t be here for another week but once it is I’ll be able to stream Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, and Plex (the four sources I use for most of my content) without having to use a phone or tablet. I should be able to hook it up the same way as the current Chromecast. Last thing I’m planning to get is an adjustable projector stand so I can get the ideal height without having to worry about keystone adjustment. Of course, no product is perfect, especially at this price point. There are a few things that could be better but I won’t hold it against the PJ20 based on the price point it operates at. The biggest issue is the fan. It is loud, really loud. If you are watching a quiet show, it will be very noticeable. The case for a projector like this is mostly hollow. It wouldn’t be too hard to put a couple more fans in that run at lower speed so that one fan doesn’t have to work so hard. The fans could also be set to adjust speed based on temperature so that they don’t have to run full speed all the time. This is an improvement that wouldn’t need to add much cost to the unit. Something else that would be handy, but again isn’t expected at this price point, is a leveling system. Put a small bubble level in the top of the projector and make the feet adjustable. If someone is using the projector for a demo on the road, and the setup is ideal, being able to adjust without eyeballing and sliding stacks of paper under the feet would be much more professional. Last thing is integration with streaming. Again, probably too big of ask at this price point but still worth considering. Ideally would be to build streaming right into the projector, but I don’t see that happening except on models costing twice as much. One compromise would be to add two features. First, allow one of the USB ports to remain powered when the projector power is switched off. This would allow a streaming stick (such as a Chromecast) to stay active instead of having to boot up from cold every time the projector is turned on. The next thing, would requires the powered USB to work, is to support CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) for the HDMI ports. When my Chromecast is hooked up to a TV I can shout at the nearest Google smart device, “OK Google, turn on the kitchen TV”. The Chromecast will then tell the TV to turn on and it will be ready for use without me having to hunt down a remote. It would be great to be able to turn a projector on the same way. There you have it. For an entry-level projector you can’t ask for much more. As long as you don’t set your expectations above the price point you will be very happy with the NexiGo PJ20.

I was excited to try this projector. I was looking for a way to show movies outside, and this projector seemed to have all the right specs. Ill start with the best feature - picture quality. It was bright (compared to other projectors), crisp and clear. The keystone adjustment and built in kickstands were useful and effective. It showed well both inside my house during the day with the blinds closed and on the outside surface of my house at night. Hardwired connectivity worked well. I was able to connect the lightning port from my iPhone and iPad to the USB port on the projector. There was a slight delay between the iPad screen and the projector, but minor (less than half a second.) The picture was crisp. I then connected a laptop to the HDMI port on the projector. In both cases, the projector worked as designed. It would serve well for a movie night with a hardwired source. Wireless connectivity was a challenge. The setup was simple - from the settings menu, select your wireless network and type in the password. I did so, then the remote stopped showing letters. Further exploration revealed that the projector allowed a maximum of 17 characters for the network password. Mine is longer than 17 characters, so I could not add it to my home network. Disappointing, but I had a work around. I created a guest network with a shorter password. My eero network app showed it was added to the new guest network I just created. However, when I went to the screen mirror settings on my iPhone (after connecting it to the new guest network), the projector did not appear in the list of devices. I tried changing the name of the guest network, restarting the phones and the projector, all to no avail. I had the same results on my iPad. I did not change the password of my main network; Ive got three teen-aged children using their devices on my network and my wife in grad school working on an assignment. I was not about to tell them to reconnect with a different password this afternoon. All that said, I could not test any network streaming functionality. Additionally, there are two modifications that I would have preferred to see. First, the remote did not come with the two AAA batteries required. It would have been nice to have those in the package. Also, it would be nice to have a white line on the keystone dial to show it in the neutral position at 0 degrees. So to sum up: - The projector has a nice, bright, crisp and clear picture - The USB and HDMI input sources worked well - The network connectivity was challenging. Perhaps a firmware upgrade could allow for longer wireless network passwords. - I would recommend this projector if you are able to plug in the source directly via HDMI or USB. Until a firmware upgrade is made available to allow for a wireless network password of approximately 30 characters, I cannot recommend it due to issues with network connectivity.

Amazing projector for $200 Easily hooks up to Bluetooth speaker Amazon fire stick works great Def a good buy !!!
