Pico projector for little money

Aiptek Mobile Cinema Q20 Pico Projector (q-1080p, 960 x 540 pixels, HDMI, AV, USB, battery pack) Black / Silver (Electronics)

Customer Review

After a long time finally affordable pico projector from Aiptek with modern technology. The label q-1080p is a bit misleading, the format is indeed 960 x 540, the reference to 1080p I do not understand, probably comes from the marketing department.

My purpose, mainly look at pictures.

No matter which are initially only specifications, but the projector is good something?
Short answer: Yes, I think so. The processing makes a good impression, the packaging is very classy (a la Apple)
the device is nice and light and offers numerous interfaces, as there would be USB (for charging eg iPhone and for connecting USB sticks up to 32GB, USB to power the device itself, AV IN, Headphone Out, HDMI, and a card slot for Micro-USB.

The operation is very simple and almost self-explanatory. The USB stick is recognized equal. View images individually, in slide show, with zoom, cropping, all goes well. The zoom could have more intermediate steps. Even Full HD movies play smoothly from the box, and that pretty well, wow!

There is a small plastic wheel to focus on the bottom of the unit. Why ask at the bottom? How practical is that, please? So I have to focus the unit lifting somehow and pretending as natural shot. Minus point !!!!

A setting for keystone adjustment (hope that is so), the device has not, moreover, would have been good, too bad. Man must then align perfectly straight in front of the canvas, craft, craft the projector. Obviously, the lens is not quite just installed, the picture is wrong to align with spirit level. On the screen that makes for a size of 70 cm of more than 5 cm. Not nice. Bissl felt under it, then you go.

During the day, the light power is obviously not enough! I did, however, not expected. If the room is darkened, can ever watch a movie, I would have but still happy, if the picture would be even a little brighter. You can look good, the picture is sharp, it is a bit exhausting for the eyes look compared to TV. But if I can live with.

The sound is somewhat tinny, through external speakers but comes super cinema atmosphere. I have a oil painting Stretcher 50 abused x 70 cm from the screen, it works very well! My kids had a lot of fun so far.

I have stuck to the bottom of the device felt, so as not to scratch the surface. For the bottom side, I would have still required a thread to operate the projector on a tripod. The alignment would be easier to handle.

I bought an HDMI adapter for iPad & Co. So you can then send photos in the comfort of the projector, super thing! When one has the whole iPad screen, but 4 to 3, with pictures and video but uses the projector then the entire surface. When the iPhone home screen does not appear, only the corresponding selected photos are displayed and played. It can also be films with eg AV player app play, class.

So, I have a negative point yet. The micro SD slot is not working with my device. No feature card is not detected until. And even worse: The card disappears so far in the slot that you can no longer be removed from the device, this function needs. Had slightly panic attacks. Have the card then gently gaaaaanz still get out with a toothpick. Problem: The card does not lock, and again not properly made. Obviously, the spring mechanism is faulty and the card can be pushed too far into the device. What interests me even now burning, if I'm the only one who has this problem.

I have asked the supplier as to whether this error is already known answer:
Please send us back the projector for testing. If necessary, We can not accept the process for you if defective.
And again, a replacement unit we have currently not available.

So, now I live only once so that I'm not necessarily dependent on the micro SD card and do not want any longer to wait for a repair. One is spoiled now.

My expectations of the device, however, have in spite of some negative points been fulfilled so that I would buy the device again.
