Where the money goes into light instead of pixels · review
A compact 1080p projector sold on its built-in applications rather than on its optics — which makes the licensing question, not the brightness figure, the thing to check.
The bottom line A self-contained projector whose strength is stated and whose brightness is not — useful where convenience decides, hard to compare where the specification does.
The maker states native 1080p, Netflix support and Dolby audio support, and does not state a brightness figure in ANSI or ISO lumens in this listing. That absence is reported here rather than filled, because there is nothing to fill it with: an unqualified figure is not a measurement, and this site does not convert one into the other.
A projector with a built-in system is bought to be self-contained. Whether that works depends on agreements between the manufacturer and each streaming platform, and those agreements are per model and change with firmware. A maker that names a service explicitly, as here, has told you more than one advertising “all your favourite apps”.
A second room, a bedroom, a machine that comes out for an evening and goes back in a cupboard. In that role the absence of a comparable brightness figure matters less than it would for a main system, because the image will be small and the room dark.
Find the ANSI or ISO figure, if the maker publishes one anywhere. Without it, the machine cannot be compared with the others on this shelf — and the comparison is the whole point of the shelf.
On sale from 120 € to 150 € on the German, American, British, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores at the time of checking.
The Italian Amazon listing is priced above 1.6× the cheapest store, which is normally a reshipping offer rather than a local price; it is left out of the range above.

Because the maker does not publish one in a measured unit in this listing, and this site does not estimate. Where an ANSI or ISO figure exists it is quoted; where it does not, the page says so rather than repeating an unqualified number as though it were comparable.
It is more convenient and less upgradeable. A stick can be replaced when it ages or loses a service; a built-in system cannot. Where a maker states support for a service by name, as here, that is worth more than a general claim of smart features.
Full HD 1 920 × 1 080 · 5 200 ANSI lumens · 10 000:1 stated contrast · 3D · keystone
The brightest machine in this catalogue by its stated figure — 5 200 ANSI lumens — which is what makes a 1080p projector work in a room you cannot darken.
Best for: A room with daylight, or a very large image, where light matters more than pixel count.
≈ £509 / 527 €
Native 1080p · 4K signal accepted · Android 13 · electric focus · auto keystone · dual-band Wi-Fi · Bluetooth 5.2
The entry point of this catalogue: a 1080p machine with electric focus, automatic keystone and Android on board, whose brightness the maker does not state in a measured unit.
Best for: An occasional projector for a dark room, a garden wall in summer, or a first machine bought to find out whether projection suits the household.
≈ £92 / 79 €
Full HD 1080p · 1 200 ANSI lumens · 4K signal accepted · 5G Wi-Fi · Bluetooth · up to 300-inch image
A 1080p projector that states 1 200 ANSI lumens — a measured unit at a price where the shelf usually does not — and that accepts a 4K signal without displaying one.
Best for: A first projector in a room that can be darkened, for someone who wants a large image without a large budget.
