Projectors are a fun and popular way to provide the theater experience at home.
But they can also deliver presentations and even cast your favorite movies and TV series
from virtually anywhere like the backyard or a cozy campsite.
Projectors are pretty simple to set up and you can typically connect a video source,
whether it's a set-top box, streaming stick, media player, or other device.
But some of the coolest projectors come with software built-in so that all you need is
a projector screen or even just a plain white wall.
The fifth product on our list is the Anker NEBULA Mars II Pro!
This is priced at about 550$!
The Mars II Pro is smaller than you might think.
It would fit easily inside any backpack with plenty of room to spare for a water bottle,
hoodie, or camera.
Anker could have made the carrying strap out of cheap-feeling plastic, but has a faux-leather
top and is soft underneath.
It's nice to touch.
There are buttons on the top for all the basic functions, but no controls for zoom or focus.
This is logical since there's no zoom and focus is automatic.
An integrated slide-open lens cap also turns the projector on and off.
To get a 100-inch image, the Mars II Pro needs to be about nine feet from the screen.
The resolution is 720p, which is pretty low for a projector these days.
The LED lamp is rated at 30,000 hours.
Max brightness is a claimed 500 lumens.
Anker claims the internal 12,500-mAh battery is good for about three and a half hours of
viewing time, and about that long to charge back up again.

The third product on this top is the BenQ GS50 1080p Wireless Outdoor Projector!
It is priced at around 800$!
The BenQ GS50 is a unique-looking projector with a white and green body.
Orange plastic grilles for the built-in speakers are inset on each side with a faux leather
handle on the left and a cover for inputs on the right.
There’s a button-activated telescoping kickstand on the bottom for tilting it up at an angle
and a threaded hole for mounting it to a stand.
On the back, you have a vent for the interior fan and a grille for the lower frequency woofer,
plus a DC barrel charging port.
Ports for input devices are one of each for USB Type-C, HDMI, USB Type-A, and a 3.5mm
audio output jack.
Sound via the advertised 2.1 speaker system, 10W bass plus 2 5W for the speakers, is surprisingly
loud without being tinny or boomy, projecting to fill space well.
There’s even an audio-only mode you can use that turns the projector into a glorified
Bluetooth speaker.
BenQ merely advertises 500 ANSI lumens and a 1080p native resolution, and that’s exactly
what you get.
In software, it can take up to a 4K resolution or as low as a 480p picture, downscaling or
upscaling as necessary to fit within the 1080p resolution.
Ultimately, it’s up to you if 1080p is suitable for the image sizes you need.
