Let me start by saying this projector blew my expectations out of the water. The 700 ANSI lumens brightness means I can actually watch movies during daytime with my curtains half-open - something I never thought possible with projectors in this price range.

The autofocus is magic. Literally one second after turning it on, the image snaps into perfect clarity. No more fiddling with manual focus wheels like some ancient technology. And when I accidentally bump the table? It just fixes itself instantly.

Those JBL speakers though... WOW. The first time I fired up an action movie, the room-filling sound made me check if I'd accidentally connected to my soundbar. The bass punches way above its weight class for a projector's built-in audio.

Setup was ridiculously easy - plugged in my Fire Stick via HDMI (which fits perfectly in the dedicated slot), and boom - instant Netflix theater. The WiFi 6 connection streams 4K content without a single buffer, even when my whole family's online.

My favorite unexpected feature? How quiet it runs. Previous projectors sounded like jet engines, but this one whispers even at full brightness. Perfect for not drowning out dialogue in quiet movie scenes.

The only minor gripe? The vertical-only keystone correction means you need to place it pretty level horizontally. But at this price point with these features? I'll happily use a small wedge to adjust if needed.

After two weeks of nightly movie marathons, backyard screenings, and even some PS5 gaming (the low input lag is fantastic), this has become my favorite tech purchase of the year. Friends keep asking where I got my 'fancy home theater' - they're shocked when I show them this compact white box that cost less than a decent TV.
