> 3 dayI got this projector to have movie and family slide nights outside on summer evenings with the kids. This projector has many input options so I like it being compatible with any of several devices/methods. I used a thumb drive for a trial. Used front projection indoor on a smooth white wall. Brightness and picture quality were excellent ! Outdoor, started using it on a taught bed sheet with back projection. The “picture reversing” setting option for back projection worked perfectly. Of course the bed sheet didn’t do the projector’s picture justice in the test. Nevertheless, the picture was nice and bright. Also picture size is about the size of the pictured sheet at the distance shown in the picture which works well (particular slide shown had a smaller picture size). I am proceeding to get a good outdoor screen (for front/back projection). I tried to use the remote (the necessary interface) from the screen front with the projector behind the bed-sheet - did not work consistently. Changing projector settings and media files during back projection is important with the user sitting in front of the screen. I am hoping remote works with back projection better through a front/back projection designed screen. Front screen projection worked well for some family slides and a video (albeit using a bed sheet). The adjustments for projector-screen setup were mostly complete. A post from the projector bottom facilitates picture up-down adjustment. Also it has knob adjustment for squaring sides of the picture (vertical keystone) when the projector is at a higher or lower height than the middle of the screen (is usually the case). An added adjustment to make the picture top/bottom level when the projector is sitting on an ad-hoc un-level base especially in outdoor setup would help. An auto-ID of media type would help to see all compatible files available and not have to switch between picture/movie modes with mixed media. I am encouraged and excited about using it many summer nights !

> 3 dayThis is a great projector for the money. The picture is clear and bright. We have watched a variety of movies on a projector screen and a plain wall so far; the picture quality was excellent on both. The sound quality is also much better than expected. At only 50%, it filled a small room very well and even created the illusion that the sound was coming from in front of us despite the projector being behind us. Pretty cool effect. Thanks to this sound quality, I dont anticipate needing to use Bluetooth or other connected speakers for our needs. This is good, as when I tested the Bluetooth connection to our soundbar there was quite a bit of lag which caused us to disconnect quickly. The menus are intuitive and well-designed, although when we first received the unit, it was in German. A quick Google translation and we were on the right track. The remote has worked well from various angles and distances allowing us to operate it easily. I especially appreciate the remote-control focus. I have had previous projectors where I had to turn the dials manually. With this projector, focusing couldnt be easier between the remote and the helpful screen. Overall, I am very happy with this projector. It has been the perfect upgrade from our previous one at an appropriate value.

> 3 dayBest projector I have ever used the only issue is plugs kept falling out the back. But the sound and picture were remarkable.

> 3 dayit works great. it is bright and does not put out a lot of heat. The only reasons i did not give it 5 stars is i would have liked a Zoom lens. and i use it at table top height and have to put things under it front to aim it up higher for the screen. it would be nice if it had a foot that came down to adjust the height of the projection.

> 3 dayI got this NexiGo PJ20 projector for our church to replace an older Epson that we have been using for a while. The unit arrived on time and was packaged well. One of the rubber feet on the bottom of the projector had come off and somehow attached itself to the front of the user manual, but that was easily resolved. Its a sleek unit, pleasing to the eye. The front has a large circular lens with a pop-off lens cap. The top front edge of the projector has embedded function buttons, designed to be operated from behind. The rear of the projector has two HDMI ports, two USB-A ports and one A/V port for inputs, and a 3.5mm output port. Theres also a combination power switch and keystone adjustment knob. Included with the projector was a remote (requiring two AAA batteries), a power cable, an A/V cable, a user manual and a cleaning kit. Amazon did not mention a projector case with the NexiGo, but I was still disappointed that one was not included. I have purchased several projectors in the past and they all came with carrying cases. However, Amazon has many offered by other vendors that I can select from. Now to its performance. It is bright, even at its default setting. Brighter than the Epson. The overall picture clarity is good as well. Setting it up -- I connected an HDMI cable from my laptop to the HDMI1 input on the projector, because that would give me an apples-to-apples comparison to how we currently use the Epson. I did have to fiddle with the Windows 11 system settings at first, because although the projector displayed the PC image, Windows could not detect the NexiGo as a second monitor. I changed the desktop display settings from duplicate to extended to run my third-party presentation software (which I also had to reconfigure), enabling the NexiGo to function as a separate display. Still, Windows could not detect the NexiGo as a display. Perhaps the projector isnt recognizable as a display in Windows. Not a show-stopper for me. The included remote was a helpful plus. I used it straight out of the box to turn on the projector and to configure settings. I give it mixed reviews. Its simple enough to navigate through the on-screen menus, but at times I needed to be careful how I touch the buttons (example, short press vs. long press for the menu). Using the focusing function was a bit tricky. When I want to focus, a generic focus screen appears in place of the image I am actually trying to focus, which I dont like. To me thats extra overhead--but it does work. Finally, I wanted to see how the NexiGo connects wirelessly. I didnt get very far connecting to a network. It appears that this projector can connect only to discoverable networks that display on-screen. I wanted to connect to a hidden network, but found no provision for that, which was surprising. There was an IP icon that brings up a screen listing different protocols, but on that screen I was limited to selecting an icon showing a broken chain--which did absolutely nothing! (By the way, our wireless router was in an adjacent room, fully operational with no solid wall between it and the projector. My laptop and cellphone were not far from the projector, and they both had solid wi-fi connectivity, so I could conclude that a weak signal from the network was not the issue.) So I was happy to see that the NexiGo supports Window Cast. Of all the screen casting options this projector provides, the Window Cast seems to be the only one not requiring a standard network connection to function. So I selected this option from the on-screen menu, then set my laptop to search for the projector. Bingo! With one click I was connected. With my PC about ten feet from the projector, the picture quality was decreased slightly but not terribly. As I streamed some online videos, I noticed a one-half- to one-second delay between the video and the audio, which I found noticeable perhaps because I was looking for it. Sadly, before long, an intermittent connection issue occurred in which the transmission would become choppy. Attempting to resolve this, I moved the computer around to various distances from the projector, eventually placing it directly next to it. Didnt resolve the issue. I had kept the computer plugged in to AC all that time to maintain its power and keep the casting level constant. I did not do a firmware upgrade before testing the NexiGo. The manual recommended against it, saying that all new models are shipped with the most current firmware and there was no need to upgrade it out of the box. Perhaps I should have upgraded anyway? Would it have made a difference? All in all, I like the projector and plan to use it in place of the Epson in the future, but mainly for wired HDMI connectivity. There are a lot of features I did not test which may come in handy down the line. For its low price, this NexiGo is a pretty decent projector.

> 3 dayI must say that this projector is one of the worst products I have ever purchased, and its not worth the price. There are much better quality projectors available for less than $80, and I recommend you avoid this one altogether. The interface is not user-friendly, making it impossible to adjust the focus on your first use, which makes the initial experience a complete nightmare. However, even after managing to adjust the focus, the picture quality is horrendous, and its not 4K as advertised. The image is blurry, and the colors are dull, making it impossible to enjoy any movie or presentation. In conclusion, I would recommend that you steer clear of this projector and opt for a more affordable and decent alternative. This device is not worth the frustration, and you will only end up wasting your money. Save yourself the trouble and find a better quality product within your budget.

> 3 dayHonestly for the price you can beat this. I very rarely write reviews, but weve had a pretty good experience with this thing. My husband and I dont watch a lot of TV and I wanted something to watch in the bedroom but didnt want a big bulky TV. This worked out perfect. The sound quality is pretty good. The biggest reason it didnt get 5 stars is the fan is pretty loud. I read that in the reviews that the fan is loud. I would love if it was quieter, but for the price and the picture, we can live with it. Becomes white noise. But the sound quality is good enough to hear clearly over the fan. So we are pleased. For the rather inexpensive price, very pleased.
