DR.Q 1800 Lumens 4 Inch Mini LCD Projector HI-04

Описание: I have used several budget LED projectors in the past and this one is pretty typical of them all although is rather better made and more attractive than many.

Inside the rather plain and unattractive box was the projector itself, a UK power lead, an AV cable adapter set, HDMI cable, a medium size remote control and a User Guide.

Build quality seems pretty good. The projector seems well made and robust and has an attractive upmarket design and appearance. The remote control has good physical buttons rather than soft touch ones that often fail to work. The power cord is rather short for some situations but has a fused UK plug. The excellent User guide is nicely printed, well designed and easy to read and makes a pleasant change from the poorly translated faded booklets so often included.

At 1800 lumens it is brighter than many budget rivals but still too dim to used other than in low light conditions. 2000:1 contrast is by better than with most rivals and the 800 x 480 native resolution with 1080p upscaling is above average for the class. The 1.5 to 5 meters Projection distance and 32 to 176 Inches inches image size are once again above average for the price. Best results can be obtained with a projection distance of 2.5 - 3.5 Meters, to yield an image size of 90 - 150 Inches. It has all the usual ports and interfaces: USB / AV / SD & HDMI / headphone socket. It does not have a TV-in socket but I these usually do not work in the UK. More annoyingly and unlike many rivals, this device does not offer a wifi connection to your mobile phone but can be used with a wifi equipped USB source device. Keystone adjustment is manual only but is easily done with the adjustment wheel on the top of the device next to the focus wheel. Also on top are a set of buttons to control the key features of the device in addition to the supplied remote control. On the underside is a metal tripod mount and on the side the input and output ports. The integral cooling fan is quite noisy but less so than on some rivals I have used.

Image quality is excellent for the current £64.99 price and class of this device and fine for most home uses. It is not suitable for business or professional use as the image is too dim for daylight use and the image is a bit fuzzy when resolving text although there are no problems when viewing video or images. It can be used with an Amazon first stick or similar source units to give live streaming video. Video quality can be finely tuned using the settings panel where adjustments can be made to colour temperature, contrast, brightness, contrast, and image noise level but most users will find it works fine straight from the box.

This is a decent quality budget projector available at a sensible price with an image quality fine for home use.
