Thomson Vega PG35B portable Full HD projector review
A battery projector that states its brightness in ANSI lumens — 350 — which is honest, comparable, and exactly what a portable machine actually produces.
The honest portable: an ANSI figure that tells you exactly what to expect, a licensed television platform, and a case to carry it in. Key figures: Full HD · 350 ANSI lumens · battery · Google TV · autofocus · HDR10 · Dolby Digital+ · hard case included. It is a European model with no Amazon.com offer on October 25, 2026. Our score: 8.6/10, specification-checked.
The number that makes this page short
350 ANSI lumens. It is a measurement, it is modest, and it is what a battery projector produces. Competing machines of the same class advertise figures forty or fifty times larger in a unit that means nothing — and there is no conversion between them, because only one is measured to a standard.
What that means practically
A good image after dark, on a modest size, in a room where the light can be controlled. Not daylight, not a three-meter image. Anyone who buys a portable projector expecting either will be disappointed by every machine in this family, not just this one.
Why the platform is worth noting
Google TV rather than a generic Android build. Streaming support is decided by licensing agreements, and a certified platform generally carries the licenses that let services run at full resolution. On a machine bought to be self-contained, that is more consequential than the processor.
The details that show it was designed to travel
A hard case in the box, autofocus so it does not need adjusting each time it is set down, and stated ceiling projection — which is what a portable projector in a bedroom actually does.
What is not stated
Battery runtime. On a machine defined by its battery, that is the second specification after brightness, and its absence is worth knowing before buying.
Buying it in the United States
Not sold on Amazon.com when we checked on October 25, 2026. This is a model of the European catalog: we hold Amazon references for it in Europe only, so the button can only run a search on Amazon.com. Read it as a description of the design, and buy from the list below.
On this shelf, with an Amazon.com offer on October 25, 2026:
States 350 ANSI lumens — an honest figure in a measured unit, on a shelf where machines of this class advertise tens of thousands of unqualified "lumens"
Google TV rather than a generic Android build, which is a licensing distinction that matters for streaming services
A hard case included, on a machine designed to be carried
Ceiling projection is stated, which is what a portable machine in a bedroom is actually used for
Compromises
350 ANSI lumens is a dark-room figure — that is the honest ceiling of battery projection, not a criticism of this machine
Battery runtime is not stated in the listing
Full HD rather than 4K, at a price where AC-powered 4K machines exist

What gets asked most
Is 350 ANSI lumens low?
It is low compared with a AC-powered projector and normal for a battery one — the available power sets a hard ceiling. What makes it notable is that the figure is stated in a measured unit at all: comparable machines routinely advertise "9,000 lumens" for the same real output, and there is no conversion between the two.
Why does Google TV rather than Android matter?
Because streaming support is a licensing agreement, not a technical capability. A certified Google TV device generally has the licenses that a generic Android build may not, and the services that will run at full resolution follow from that rather than from the processor.

8.6/ 10
The honest portable: an ANSI figure that tells you exactly what to expect, a licensed television platform, and a case to carry it in.
Who should pick this one, among portable projectors
A bedroom ceiling, a backyard after dusk, or a machine that travels — anywhere the alternative is no projector rather than a better one.

Native 1080p · battery powered · Google TV · portable, outdoor use stated
A battery projector on Google TV from a maker that states ISO lumens on its larger machines — here the brightness figure is absent, and the page says so.
Best for: A self-contained machine for a dark room or a backyard after dusk, from a range whose larger models are specified properly.
