I bought this as an upgrade for an ageing portable projector and was expecting great things based upon the reviews on YouTube, however I have ended up very disappointed and have today reluctantly returned the product for a refund, here are the main reasons why it was not up to scratch for me:1. Noisy fan, much louder than I expected and intrusive at low volumes.2. You cannot adjust the volume accurately, the steps are too large, especially at the low end.3. The picture is sharp but just not bright enough to use in anything less than near blackout.4. The choice of streaming apps is severely limited for UK users, would need to add a Fire Stick.5. The auto-focus whilst accurate does not alway kick in and has to be manually prompted.On the plus side:1. Size and weight are very acceptable, perfect for travel.2. Sound quality is decent and it would double as a travel speaker.3. USB C charging is much more convenient that a power brick.4. it looks great, nice design, would benefit from a lens cover though.5. Feels well built.I am going to try a Xgimi Mogo Pro which on paper looks very similar but I have learned my lesson here so will not get my hopes up until I have had a chance to put it through its paces.Overall, this is not a bad device, but in my view it is not a great one either. Anyone thinking about this as a TV replacement/substitute should steer clear but as a travel companion, it might just about be good enough depending upon how demanding you are.
