Home Projector, Deeplee DP500 Mini Projector 1800 Lumen Portable LED Video Projector support MHL HDMI USB VGA TF HD Multimedia Mini Projector with Stereo Built-in Speaker

I bought another projector recently, for my main room downstairs. I found myself using it so much so I bought another different one for the bedroom.I wasn't looking for an expensive one, and at £60, this seemed to tick most of the boxes I was looking for. Firstly, for what it is, it's really compact, you can hold it comfortably in your hand. Included in the box is an HDMI cable an AV cable, a controller, and the projector itself.+ It's only 1800 Lumens, but in a darkened room, it's actually very bright.+ Despite its native resolution only being 480p... which is probably the only downside, but expected due to the price - even at an approximate 32 inch TV size, the quality is perfectly watchable for a movie.+ It's got great connectivity, a VGA, HDMI, USB and an Earphone out and AV in.+ It comes with raisable legs pre-attached, and a removable lens cap+ It's easy to operate, and the included remote control certainly helps - but even using just the unit itself is perfectly usable+ The most impressive thing about this though that I didn't find myself saying about the more expensive £150 projector, is the speakers are actually fine for casual watching. They don't sound tiny, they are loud, but really don't distort at all. Sure, they don't have the bass and oomph some would like from films, but I've comfortably watched an episode of the grand tour with it. The speaker manages to be louder than the fan (which actually isn't that loud at all)- The keystone adjustment overall is very slight, so you'll want this at the right height that you want to watch it at, in addition, the keystone has the tendency to be knocked out of place easily. But as long as you leave the projector be... this won't be a problem.Overall then, this is a great buy if you're looking for a projector without much space for one, and are on a pretty small budget.

Minimum screen size is 50 inches not 30 inches as in description. This means you need a much further distance to the screen or is blurred. Also colour rendering awful. I guess you get what you pay for. Sent back and got refund.

A projector for under £60 would have seemed pretty ridiculous only a few years ago so the fact that something like this exists is great. However if you are expecting to get amazing picture quality for home cinema you will need to temper your expectations slightly - whilst I think it's amazing that these cheap projectors can throw out a perfectly acceptable picture at this price point the old adage of "you get what you pay for" still applies.Firstly let's have a look in the box you'll find the projector itself well packed in foam, a power cable, and HMDI cable, a AV component cable, remote control and manual. The manual isn't bad at all but the projector is dead easy to set up anyway, and the user interface is pretty user friendly when it comes to playing content from a usb stick or SD card.Like all the cheap projectors this references HD but it's doesn't actually output in HD. The native resolution is 800x400P, so not bad but still a long way short - what they mean when they talk about supporting HD is that it will take a HD signal and downscale it to 800 x 400. That's not to say the picture quality is poor as it's not - it's perfectly passable and better than the projector I had a few years ago that cost way, way more than this, but I don't think you'd want to replace your TV with this for everyday use. If that sounds a bit negative then it should as this is a good buy for the money, just don't expect to be taking on your local Odeon. However for a movie once a week this thing is greatYou'll get much better results with an actual projector screen (even a cheap one will give you brighter colours and deeper blacks) but a white wall will do if there's nothing else. The brightness is claimed to be 1800 - I've no way to measure that but it seems about right. You will obviously get best results in a dark room, as with any projector. I'd recommend a tripod for mounting it is you have one as it does make getting the height to get a clear picture much easier. We have several projectors now as we use them for work, and I can tell you from experience that these cheap ones are not ideal for a boardroom presentation where you will struggle to get the room dark enough usually.The projector does have some built in speakers, which are perfectly adequate but for home use you would ideally connect it to your amp and speakers if you have them. Talking of sound the fan noise is noticeable on this, and it's not the quietest projector I've used but it still falls within the acceptable levels.In conclusion then this is good value for the price (under £70 when I got it) that would be perfect for occasional use. If you are looking for a permanent home cinema projector or one for business use then I'd suggest paying more if you can afford it.

Two star for the sound quality. The USB and VGA don't seem to work at all plus picture is blurry except in the middle. Grrrrrrrrrr!

Bought primarily for travelling but also as a backup for home use.Pros:Value for money (price does vary a lot - not sure if that is Amazon or the supplier)Quite compactWorks out of the boxFan isn't too noisyGood speakers for size - no need for external speakers unless using outside or very large roomWhen used in a dedicated cinema room brightness better than many more expensive models (beats one of my other projectors that costs around 8x the price)Copes well with games (and films)Even when projecting 4m or so to give a 4m diagonal quality still acceptable (it is not HD so you can't expect it to be really stunning)Cons:480 linesNo SD input (description states should have one)Doesn't play all file types and sometimes will not play a file that previously has playedLack of horizontal keystone correctionVertical keystone correction basicSummary:There are better projectors out there but at much higher prices. This is a good budget buy although check how compatible it is for your application.
