I've tested a handful of portable projectors for backyard movie nights, and the LUMI-1 Smart Projector from Lumi Labs is the first one that actually feels like a complete home theater in a 2.8lb frame.
Running Android 9.0 with 1080P Full HD and 4K compatibility, the LUMI-1 throws a usable image anywhere from 50 to 200 inches, which is more than enough range for both an apartment living room and an outdoor screen.
4-point keystone correction plus manual zoom and focus made getting a clean, rectangular image painless, and the built-in 2x5W speakers are loud enough that I skip an external speaker for casual viewing.
Pros: Dual 5GHz/2.4G WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, HDMI/USB/Aux ports, 2G RAM/32GB storage, attached carry strap, backed by a 4.9 rating.
Cons: At 200 ANSI lumens, brightness performance is best in dim or dark rooms rather than fully lit spaces.
Currently on sale at $199.00 (down from $299.00), it's an easy recommendation for anyone building a portable home theater setup: LUMI-1 Smart Projector.
