LG PF50KA 100” Portable Full HD (1920 x 1080) LED Smart TV Home Theater CineBeam Projector with Built-in Battery (2.5 Hours) - White

This projector should be great. It is a small portable size, has a built in battery and low fan noise. It has a few good apps from LG WebOS and has full HD native resolution. On paper this should be incredible, but sadly its not in my experience. LG must have cut costs by adding a very low powered processor inside. Everything runs very slowly, from changing settings to selecting apps, its very sluggish. Movie playback is smooth though and it plays most file formats. The killer for me is the audio. Its absolute garbage. A cheap portable $10 speaker from a corner store would sound better! When connected to a bluetooth speaker the sound is out of sync. You can calibrate it in the settings but doesnt make a big difference. The battery gets me only around 75 minutes which is also disappointing so I have it connected to a socket. Maybe I have a defective unit?

Ive owned this projector for years as a TV replacement. It has worked great, has many nice features, and has been trouble free. The only weak point is the brightness, which is limited to 600 ANSI Lumens. Now I am searching for an upgrade to 4K and at least 1500 ANSI Lumens, but those are still almost 3x the cost of this projector here. I will keep using this one until a good deal on a 4K upgrade is available. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone who can control the amount of light entering the room. As long as you understand the brightness limitations you will not be disappointed with this purchase!

Excellent picture. Very clear and crisp. Remote very easy to use. Plan is for camping and outside movies at night. So far very happy. Four star review is based on the lag. When in Bluetooth and volume is adjusted sound goes out for 5-10 seconds so you miss parts of conversation and have to rewind. For the price I was surprised at that issue. Other than that am very satisfied.

This thing is amazing. Its plenty bright for all but the most discerning eye, has a decent battery that lasts about 2 hours if you dont have it on Vivid and maxed the volume, and has both external Bluetooth audio and tons of input options! Ive used this at home, in a hotel in Mexico, in my backyard with a bedsheet... Its amazing. The throw is somewhere between standard and short but not so short as to make it unusable with non-tensioned screens. It has been tossed around in airport baggage, moved around 100 times, and I think my dog may have wacked it with her whip of a tail at one point... Keeps on going! Could you spend $500+ more for a slightly better product? Probably. Could you spend $5000+ for a premium product? Definitely. Is this good for a permanent home setup with a dedicated theater system/room? No. Will the AV snobs ever own this? No. But who cares what they think?? I can watch anything I want with a Chromecast, my phone, and a WiFi signal anywhere I want, on a 100 inch screen in passable HD with a JBL Flip filling the room and any reasonable flat surface.

Love this little projector. Great picture, brightness is ok, especially for a portable wireless rechargeable projector. Only complaint I have is that every time you turn it on it defaults to the TV setting. We are using this in a conference room and do not have any Antenna hooked up to it. So the first thing you see every time you power it on is the static screen and static sound that you get when you do not have a TV signal. There is no way to change the default startup setting to one of the other inputs which is pretty sad in todays market. I would like to see LG put a firmware update out either allowing the device to remember the last INPUT setting it was on when powered down and power up to the last INPUT setting. Or change the device to allow you to set the default startup INPUT to anything other than TV. As I said that is my only complaint, great product otherwise. Perfect for our Conference room.

Replaced my Qumi Q3 Pico projector for this LG, and honestly the best decision I’ve made in a long time. Picture quality is great, and the brightness is just what i needed. My favorite part is the auto keystone feature! The internal speaker is average as to be expected from an internal speaker. Battery life is good. Lasts about the length of a movie. LG OS installed is great, and so easy to navigate and use!

This project is easy to carry with you to client meetings. Its small and works really well. Battery life is pretty good.

This projector is superb! Its like Im watching on a very HD LED tv. Portable and lightweight, all pack with almost everything you need. The only thing is, I don’t figure out how to connect through airplay, or maybe there is no airplay but miracast. Overall, I dont regret buying this projector, it is worth the price..

I decided on 3 stars. On some facets its 5 stars, and others its 1 star. My main reason for 1 star is that it doesnt support apple airplay. I want a portable projector that I can stream from my iPhone. So if you have an iPhone, you cant use this, so... 1 star. But I love the USB-C port. Video/Audio/Charging all with one cable! That is the future and Im sure new projectors in the future will mainly use the USB-C port. 5 stars. Brightness. Yes better than many portables, but still only good in a dark room. Why cant projectors fix this problem? 1 star. Speaker. surprise... 5 stars! Yes, probably one of the worst speakers out there, but who cares. I have my bluetooth speaker thats great on the go that no other projector speaker can touch. And for home I bluetooth stream to my soundbar. I would be fine with no built in speaker at all. Form factor. Cant decide. I think I like it flat like it is compared to the boxy of others. 1 or 5 stars. Remote. 1 star. I dont want to carry around a 1990s remote. sorry. I hope LG continues improving this version and sets its own design rather than copying others. Overall I think this is close. Just wish they would add the apple airplay and then I wouldnt have had to return it.

Great entry level Projector w/Smart Tv functionality. Darkened room preferred. Black Out Curtains are very convenient. Great for away missions. My Roku+ Stick is a handy must have. Uhh wifi needed. Dont forget a inexpensive antenna for television functionality.
