Great projector at good price-point. Definitely some details to consider.
I start reviews at 3 stars then add or subtract for any pros\cons.First, I searched and purchased this projector so it's NOT a Vine product or freebie review. I just take my reviews seriously and like to be thorough.Initial Impression (+1 star)The projector was packaged very securely. When I pulled it out, its' weight and quality felt very durable and well made. I had a previous one similar to this style that was cheaply made and the pivot point failed after 3 months of use. This one by Tecaki is MUCH better and feels like it will last a long time.Features(+1 star) Setup was very easy and the menu options are simple and clear. I didn't need instructions to get it to cast from my S24 Ultra but casting does require a newer model phone. You can also use an HDMI dongle to your phone, or direct HDMI from a computer. This takes over the device and I wanted this to run by itself. The fine print on one of the images says TV stick sold separately.(-1 star) The menus seem a bit 'cheap' and 'toy-ish'. After using it, I found it's simple and functional. It could definitely use a redesign, but it works.(+1 star) The video quality is awesome and it projects well and the colors are vibrant in a dim or dark room. It will "work" in a bright room, but the picture is definitely washed out the brighter the room is. I wasn't expecting to use it in a bright area so this wasn't a problem or an expectation for me.(+1 star) The picture size is impressive. I have an empty wall in one of the rooms and I can project the picture from the projector to nearly fill the entire wall.I didn't want to lock up a phone or a PC and I planned to use a FireStick. I pulled a FireStick 4k MAX from a TV I wasn't using and plugged it in. The FireTV logo appeared briefly then disappeared with a message that it could not be recognized. After unsuccessfully trying to mess with the settings, I reached out to Support.Support (+1 star)In short, Tecaki support is AMAZING.Shelley was extremely polite, thorough in the responses, and responded quickly (timezone difference considered). We didn't have to go back and forth 5 times for something to be done. The first response provided me with troubleshooting steps and what the next steps would be if these didn't work. The second email was exactly what I needed to know. Even though the 4K Max FireStick doesn't work due to resolution incompatibility, Shelley said the FireStick HD version does.I swapped the 4K FireStick for a HD FireStick and it worked. No connectivity issues whatsoever. After setting up the FireStick, it streamed YouTube and all of my apps flawlessly.(-1 star) Even with the HDMI extension cable, you cannot put the projector straight up without it squeezing the cable. I don't plan to use it on the ceiling but it would have been a cool option for my kid's sleep-overs or when laying in bed.(-1 star) The volume control on the FireStick remote will not control the volume of the projector like it does on my TV even after going through all 6 compatibility attempts the FireStick tries. Not a huge deal because there is a volume control on the projector's remote, but it is a annoying to have to use and keep track of 2 remotes.Pictures:1. In Box2. Out of box3.
