Interesting note about these (and closely related products)...if you can put up with a bit of roughness on the projected "screen", it is relatively common to find outdoor places at night that have big, relatively white concrete walls. Connecting one of these to a portable emulation device (such as a Raspberry-Pi machine or the like) to play old-school games with random passersby is a lot of fun. My personal recommended games for such an occasion are NES Contra, ARC Bubble Bobble, ARC Rainbow Islands, MD/Genesis Dashin' Desperadoes, Neo Geo Crossed Swords, or SNES Mario Kart.

Thanks for the great review. To me this falls into the type of tech that makes you think "wow, cool" when you first hear about it but considering it a bit more and reality bites, especially at that price. Kind of makes me think of the slide projector my dad had in the 70s and 80s when they were still a thing; good fun but such a faff getting it set up with the projector screen that you rarely bothered.

I got hooked to your channel with all those obscure formats and I haven't looked back since. I never realized how many truly existed before the digital age! Your show has a lot more personality to it than a lot of tech reviews. I don't even normally watch tech reviews until I found this channel. So awesome, informative and it never feels "fake" like some of the companies that obviously get paid a lot to bias the opinion on the products from the manufacturers. Nothing wrong with that either but it is refreshing to get a more neutral opinion. Keep it up! I'm always excited to see something new or old and obscure!

Thanks for pointing the lumens thing out, Tech. For comparison, your average 60-watt equivalent CFL bulb produces 650 to 800 lumens, depending on whether it's warm or cool in colour. Your laptop and phone are usually about 400. This projector only has 40 lumens. For more perspective, my six LED flashlight that runs off of a single AA battery is rated at 35, and can barely project more than ten feet in front of me. This thing is really, REALLY weak.

@@VulpesHilarianus I have one, it outperforms some bigger and more expensive home cinema projectors in terms of image quality. Unlike a TV, once you reach HD, it really doesn't matter about if it's 720, 1080 etc. It's down to viewing distance. The auto laser focus is superb. You need total darkness, but that's about the only issue. Excellent pico projector and more than capable home cinema option when used with a good quality projector screen.

A feature of the new one you overlooked: The vastly improved laser light (spec): from 2000 hours to 10000 hours. Due to 1920 pixels in horizontal direction: can this projector be sused for structured light 3D scanning? The low resolution of 720 pixels does not matter there.

I think the "whine" you mentioned may have been the fan motor. And all projectors will have some sort of fan noise. The full-sized ones are considerably louder. When you mentioned it and left the hole for us to hear it, I had crank up my volume to hear it at all so it's not that bad, although it could be worse, is suppose, live in the same room. Interesting review; quite helpful even though it's dated. Your supplementary information about the new version makes the difference there.

yeah price to performance for these just isn't there yet. Just gonna wait for 1440p 120hz regular projectors so i can play games with low lag (less than tv anyway) at a potentially huge screen size. Pretty much all of the 120hz projectors are 1080p or lower, which just doesnt cut it at larger viewing sizes. Plus, they cost upwards of 3x that of a 60hz for the same res.

You really made a good choice. I got one of this and it was horrible. I travel a lot so I thought hey this could be like a portable TV that I can bring around. I was wrong, very wrong. First of all, it's not bright. It's much darker than typical DLP/LED projectors, so if you want it to project more than 32", you would be out of luck most of the time. So, let's say, in order to avoid this, you make it project about 32" and sit close to the screen. You will start noticing small artifacts all over the screen. This is a common problem among laser projectors. So, in the end, I ended up with a product that only works when a really specific condition is met. I just watched videos and played games on my laptop instead.

Ano Niem Nope. Not remotely true. You should do some homework. Sony posted record profits this year. No way they could do that with only their gaming. The Playstation and gaming is actually their second most profitable. First are semi conducters and image sensors which are the best in the world and are used in almost every other smart phone manufacturer and Tvs and their image sensors are what makes the facial recognition on the iPhone X work. Also, SONY is waaay ahead of everyone in VR having now sold over 2 million VR headsets (far more than anyone else) and they pretty much made a comeback with their TV sales, among other ways they made money (such as their audio division) In fact.... Their mobile division was the only one that underperformed. So your statement is completely wrong

Is difficult to get a good shot with that) that covers a wide range of situations Sound: typical Sony (although they renamed the music player app from "Walkman" to just "music". This suggests that Sony plans to kill Walkman as a brand) with clarity that you expect from a such company. Also Sony has a very good selection of additional software around image, and sound.

The gadget appeal is great but....is it really sensible? I think I'll pass (at least at that price, or then used).

Hi Mr. Techmoan! I really like the vintage equipment reviews you do. I'm not familiar with your audio recording setup, but I have a suggestion. When I make videos, I move the lapel mic closer to my mouth (maybe on your shirt collar), and I turn the gain down. This reduces the echoes that the mic picks up. When we see shots of you in front of the projector screen, we can hear the reflection of the room. It's subtle, but it's there. I do keep my mic upside down too, though! Helps with sibilant Ss and Fs. Thanks for everything you do.

Love Techmoan's reviews. His review of the Sony Laser Projector has saved me more than £300, he convinced me that I didnt need one after all. Thanks

11:01 I can find one; there's a nice blank square of not-quite-white wall in my bedroom, of which the only thing blocking it is my bed. If I were to move around my desk, set of drawers and my bed, I could conceivably use it as a projector screen.

Always wondered just how good these were, thanks for the video :) I'm in the process of selling my 1080P Optoma projector simply because I rarely used it and went back to the TV. Oh and I finally went for an OLED, amazing picture.

I get good use out of my lenovo Tab Pro 3 with projector in it on many vacations. it can be annoying having texture on the walls but much better to be able to relax and watch at a comfortable angle. great video. hope they start jamming the laser technology into the tablets.

Ok so this is unrelated to this video in particular however one thing I've noticed in your videos is that, as far as I know, the display for the Akai EA-A7 isn't set up right. I think the bars on the right and left of each channel should peak in the middle of the display, there's even a visible lime halfway in the middle. Try it out, I bought one of these after seeing your video on it and doing this has given me the best results. Love the videos keep doing what you're doin.

The best use I can figure for these pocket projectors is business meetings/conferences etc. Although most conference rooms have projectors in them already so the use would still be minimal. I got a MicroVision projector a few years back in some boxes of random old tech a relative was throwing out, got a carry bag and a proprietary cable with it (think back to the charging cables for mobile phones from the mid 1990s and it looks similar to that). It also has some other ports, (HDMI mini, USB micro, 1/8" audio jack). Manufacture date says Aug 2011.

I love these and have one as part of my Motorola Moto Z Play and use it WAY more often than I thought I would. I use it mostly for mobile gaming on the ceiling, but it's great to take out at get togethers, I've used it in class, I use it to project the chat to my KZfaq live streams on the wall so I can talk to viewers. it's pretty unnecessary, but still pretty cool.

I have one and have found it especially fun for the grandkids to watch a movie on a whole wall and also while hunting or camping it projects across a whole bed sheet very clearly. While visiting in a hospital I have been able to show pics and movies of friends and family on the ceiling for those laid up in bed. A very fair review. I connect a U megaboom for sound when 'planning' any showing. I have a portable battery to carry with me for phone or projector if I need more power.

Some years ago I remember reading an article on laser projection. It mentioned a special crystal whose refractive index could be changed by exposing it to a magnetic field. The idea being that the laser is routed through such a crystal and two small coils mounted close to the crystal are used to create variable magnetic fields that change the direction of the laser as it exits the crystal. After watching this I started searching for the article again but I couldn't find it, nor can I find any mention of the principle anywhere. Maybe it failed? Seems odd that all trace of it has vanished.
