Since you're the best, what's your point of view on :
– Halo+
– Apple TV 4k
– 2 Airpods
To easily set a movie night with my wife, without waking up my neighbor's toddlers.
You're the GOAT of projectors reviews. Also, is it possible to review Sony laser projectors, I know they are ridiculously expensive, but if could get a review unit it would be awesome to see you reviewing one, I want to know the reason behind the absurdly high price.
Dang I’d been hoping you’d cover a bunch of Anker Nebula portable models, to get a sense on the comparison between the Astro mini, capsule, Solar, Apollo, and capsule laser.
Capsule laser seems like a great option but I wonder how much you get from them for less.
Hi, awesome! Can you please include in your testing a 4K 60FPS input smoothness test? Like from a video game that you know runs smoothly at 60 frames per second as I consider this the number one make or break factor for what I'm looking for. In any projector at any price point really. Your videos have been a great resource for getting a fuller understanding of what is available! I'm on my seventh projector now between the $180 to $350 range and your latest video has helped me determine my next upgrade to be the Yaber Ace K1, though I still am working right now on mounting it so I can test its 4K 60 performance. BTW I found with all six of my previous before the ace k1 that all of the internal parts are compatible and swappable between all those different projectors. Including two of the same projectors from the same Amazon listing that had two totally different sets of internal parts inside! One with a good set of parts which represented the only one (processor PCB) that could do a 4K 60 input smoothly, and the other one with all crap parts including a smaller internal screen. Thank you!
Curious as to where the Xgimi Elfin or the Viewsonic M2E would land on this list.
Looks like Capsule 3 not worth buying. You don't even give a single f.. not even mention very much about theirs new product. Love your reviews and been w8 long time 4 this one. Thank you. Have a wonderful time during the birth of Christ. ❤️
is there any good small(er) portable projector without battery included? Something you can ideally just toss in a backpack and won't use much space and can use around? As long as you're not camping there's bound to be some power outlet and even when camping a dedicated powerpack/generator might work better than whatever is included.
Nice project farm style delivery, snappy and factual with no B.S. But I do still value your personal opinion and preferences.
And could you do an updated shootout for projectors suited for whole house projection?
Being an owner of 4 projectors (from Eilfin Xgmi til JVC NZ9) I want to say that it is the best video for choosing the portable projector in whole internet.
Thanks.
P.S. what is the name of tripod stand you mentioned in the video?
Thank you from Portugal !! I'm hopping Samsung releases the freestyle gen 2 anytime soon. With more brightness and correcting the small flaws, I think we'll have a winner.
Hola, soy de Argentina y mi inglés es muy malo, por eso escribo en español. Tus análisis son excelentes. Solo falto algo muy importante, la opinión de los consumidores y los resultados después de por lo menos un año de uso cuando eso es posible. Yo siempre busco los comentarios más recientes de Amazon. Por ejemplo, los de Free Style de Samsung son malísimos, Pésimo brillo, el sostén metálico del aparato se vence. Tanto el Capsula 3 y el Wemax son Laser Alpd. Eso significa que no tiene los problemas de que se queme o falle la lampara por sorpresas a corto tiempo. Otro item es "Servicio al cliente" que parece que el de Nébula es el mejor. Finalmente, podrías analizar el pico T1 de Yaber portatil? Parece un concepto y categoría totalmente nuevo, Gracias
T h a n k ✨️ y o u ✨️ for the fabulous presentation of these products…😁
Someone's been watching Project Farm! 🙂
Well done, thank you.
Can you make a video for the best projector to use without using projector screen, please?
Thank you very much.
Excelent review. Cheers from Chile
I love your hard work and thoroughness. Even Consumer Reports could take some notes from you 😂
are you able to get the Brand "Fengmi Formovie S5" for the test as well?
Have you noticed that sound makes up 80% of the experience and video only 20%. Your former test revealed a better score to Benc GV30. Well you let the Halo win, but it was obvious that the Benq scored a better picture. I bought one and I am very satisfied. It is easy to move the picture anywere. But another feature is that it only uses 45 Watt and we are obliged to save Watts. The clear sound makes me hear anything and I started to use it for music. Thank you for your tests. My main projector is an Epson EF-12.
Okay but why is the xgimi halo plus $1,000!?
I have a question.
Im searching a good mini Beamer for our sleeping room. We sitting close to the possible Beamer. So he has to be quiet but with an ok sound. Picture quality isn’t that important.
Do you have a good suggestion for around 250 dollar or less?
God damn this review was on next level !!!
the very Best proyector review, thanks
I'm between Samsungs and LG's
The best projector review on YT. Thanks for helping out
bu karşılaştırmayı bir ay önce çekseydiniz, bende nebula capsül maxa para vermeseydim :((((
Thanks so much for the great content. Would be great one comparison of projector screens
watched it, still don't know what to buy. i think street price is a dimension missing in the final ranking
This projectors reviews are gold. Congratulations.
Waiting for the next one.
By the way, after seeing this, I wonder if the specs (basically ansi lumens, on:off contrast and noise) of higher level proyectors of more established companies like sony, panasonic, JVC… are true as they claim.
I would like to see the Anker Nebula Solar stacks up
Can you please do xgimi halo+ vs horizion pro
Great video but the one I was thinking to get isn't there, the epson ep12.
This dude straight up copied Project Farm lmao
Thanks to YT seeing I was interested in the Reolink cameras, they sent me you channel. There is one (Amazon) brand I have not seen on your channel or at least no videos pop up when I search your channel. Zosi. I was leaning more toward a POE solution at a high resolution as long as the frame rate was reasonable. I am guessing finding new subject mater is a constant quest you have. Currently I am using cameras from OptiView (Florida) They have been solid cameras with low failure rate for a good decade. I have used Avigilon, Axis, JVC, Sony, Cannon P&T and Bosch fixed. While they tend to be too expensive for the home user, some may meet those special requirements for night vision and range. B&H is a good competitive source.
"We're gonna test that" channelling project farm and I love it. I don't know who mimicked who but it really is the best way to review things
