    Saw the ads for this one and then saw it’s only 500 lumens. Hope you like watching your crazy expensive projector in a perfectly dark room where no one else will see its “style”.

        Those are Chinese medical cum harvesters. Incidentally, how’s your mom’s job hunt going?

            Hard to converse with a ball gag in my mouth and she charges by the minute. I can’t afford the luxury of a sentence more than the 2 minutes I need of her company.

    And it’s a useless toy compared to my 1 k$ ceiling mounted white Epson.

    A 4K laser projector in that form factor is impressive. If the brightness and color accuracy are actually there, it could be a great option for minimalist setups where you don’t want a massive lens dominating the room. The handle is a quirky touch too.

    When I was in uni I bought a projector for my room. Best thing I ever bought.

    Just put it on my bedside table and used it to watch movies on the white wall either alone or with the FB. Even took it downstairs and on the old console played split screen COD with the housemates. It was awesome.

    But that was 10 years ago now and TV tech has moved on. Most people have a huge TV that gives pretty much the same size as what screen I was protecting but much clearer, and they also don’t live in a shitty uni room with no space for a TV stand and no walls mounts.

    The projector had its short window of being the right solution but I think a lot of people missed it and now a TV is almost always the right option.
