Mini Projector - Gearbest

[Quintrix]

Anybody ever bought any of the mini projectors on Gearbest ?
(sub 1k - closer to R500)

Looking for something small and portable. Don't need to be the best but at least a decent pic quality.
Will mostly be used when we're camping to entertain the juniors
Any feedback / advice would be appreciated

I haven't bought one because of the low light output. Most decent projectors put out over 2500 Lumens those ones are often around 150. Simply not bright enough unless used in a lightless environment

Anybody else?

Don't do it. Lumens is too low. Outdoors you going to have campfires and torches etc making the picture barely visible.

Rather negotiate with this forum member and buy his (2800 lumens):

Not very portable though unless you can hook it up to an invertor and your 4x4 battery when camping.

Don't do the bundu thing. Just normal campsites, so AC is not an issue.
Basically looking for a cheap portable solution to get a bigger picture than a laptop screen

Different option. Takealot has it for about 100 bucks more but they also have a very good returns policy
