I bought a $40 projector from Woot! a few months back. Not sure of brand, but it was one I never heard of. Was it awesome? No. Did it project cartoons onto the wall for a bunch of kids? Yes. Keep the room dark, and you might want some speakers… however, for $40, it does what it claims to do. If I never use it again, I got my money’s worth. It’s small enough, I just threw it in a drawer. Who knows when I might need it again.
No. It’s not. It’s a steaming pile of crap. It’s not the brightness that’s the issue, it’s the resolution. Your kids Nintendo DS has a higher resolution.
