I just recently looked at laser projectors that cost 4 figures so I was amazed to be offered this HD Maxwork mini projector with a price of just 60.
Firstly – it is incredibly easy to use. I just plugged it in and sat it on a table – the projector switched on and adjusted the picture to compensate for the angle it was at. It runs on an Android operation system and so connecting it to WIFI and finding a couple of apps to run was almost as easy as using my phone. I will say that updating it was mildly worrying as it seemed to freeze for a long time – almost long enough to make me want to start interfering and possibly brick the whole device. However it did eventually sort itself out after being left alone.
I have uploaded a picture of me projecting a huge image on to a roughcast wall that is bumpy, dirty and “brightstone” rather than white. The picture on a proper white wall, meanwhile, is great for a 60 device. I downloaded an app from Play called Fotoo in order to use this at a wake and it would have been ideal, but it turns out the venue had no suitable wall and offered us the use of their TVs instead.
I’m very impressed with this and it was about to get a five star review, but then lost a star because Netflix has suddenly stopped working on it (note it has been blurred out of the listing).
Review of: Maxwork enterprizes Mini Projector – Indoor & Outdoor Smart Projector for Bedroom – 1280×720 HD Resolution, 4K Upscaling Support – Built-In Speaker, HDMI Input & Output – Up to 200″ Projection Size
This is the kind of projector that will not wow you but equally, for the money, it won’t disappoint terribly.
It is easy to set up and connection to a phone was easy, not that you need to do so though because the built in apps work well (we just wanted to skip signing in to them!). The image quality is fair but it copes well with ambient light. Image stabilisation was good for a product at this price. It was easy to change the screen size.
Sound is, well, average; it is a small unit. BUT, thankfully fan noise was very low.
We had a go projecting on the ceiling, a large surface, a small surface and even a sheet. All were good.
For 60 at time of order this is a mighty piece of kit and it more than delivers at that price point.
ALTHOUGH I RECEIVED THIS PRODUCT FOR FREE VIA THE AMAZON “VINE” PROGRAMME, I VALUE MY INTEGRITY SO ALWAYS GIVE HONEST, UNBIASED OPINIONS.
FOR ME:
A 4* PRODUCT IS GOOD – It does everything it says it should.
A 5* PRODUCT IS EXCELLENT — It does everything it should and MORE or PARTICULARLY WELL or is EXCELLENT VALUE
LOWER STAR RATINGS ARE GIVEN WHERE THERE IS A FLAW, A DESCRIPTION IS MISLEADING or THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE WHICH WILL BE CLEARLY STATED.
I was really pleasantly surprised with the quality of this projector. It’s small but the brightness and sharpness of the picture is much better than other budget projectors I have used. The resolution is also native… So you get what they claim, unlike others.
It’s so quick and easy to set up and the apps work great. You can connect to your phone for a hotspot if you want to use this while camping and have a generator. The sound quality is good enough and loud enough that if you aren’t fussy will do the job fine on its own.
The vertical adjustment is a great idea and works so well. However it’s all a little pointless if you can adjust underneath to get a straight picture. The only way is to balance items underneath it at the exact angle and hope there’s not even the slightest bump. This could have been fixed with adjustable screw type stands underneath to level it. With that change this might just be the perfect portable projector.
This mini projector arrives in a light brown cardboard box with white printing measuring approx 15.5cm x 12cm x 20cm.
It would be easy to wrap and might make a nice gift for a teen or young adult, but it’s not a high end projector that could replace a tv for a household.
Inside the box, you get the projector itself cushioned in foam top and bottom, with a cardboard box containing the lead, the remote and a small instruction manual.
The remote is the usual small black looks like every other small remote with no branding or clue what it goes with you get with many things nowadays. It requires 2 x AAA batteries (not included).
The manual is in English, German, Spanish and Russian and is a pretty basic quick start guide.
The projector itself does very well for such a compact device and would be great if you don’t have a lot of space and are looking for something smaller.
It’s fairly easy to set up once you’ve downloaded the update and works with Apple or Android devices, so you can cast from pretty much anything.
This comes with Netflix and YouTube built in, which makes it easy to get straight into watching either of those without having to download apps or cast from another device.
It’s not all that bright and only works at 1280 x 720p so best used in a dark room against a light/white wall.
It comes with a built in stand so you can angle it to suit rather than needing to get a tripod to use with it and has a small neat footprint.
It does have a fitting for attaching to a tripod if you wanted to set it up on one, so it’s your choice.
Comes with a 3 pin plug so suitable for use in the UK.
For the price, I’m really impressed.
I’ve used projectors that cost twice as much that are no better than this one.
I have cream wall and great full size ,, all headphones, wifi,google chrome works
Now f1 in big time
Only down side picture not the best like 4k but defo worth 60

Firstly I have to say that I have no experience of projectors but I fancied trying this one out to see if I could watch programs through my iPad onto a larger screen via the protector. I’m sure once I figure everything out I will be able to do that but I should point out, in case people are at the same boat as me that the instructions that come with this projector are extremely basic and actually next to useless unless you have a good level of technical knowledge already. It also does not come with any cables other than the power cable. I have set the projector up and connected it to my wifi and I have managed to download the update so that’s a start, I also managed to get it to pair with my iPad so that’s good but that’s where it ends. I currently have no knowledge of where to go from here to actually watch or mirror anything from my iPad. I will persevere, I have ordered some cables to see if it will work that way, and will have to do more internet research and failing that, I will have to find a 15 year old lol. What I can say is that what I have seen so far on the projector looks amazing quality and the projector itself looks really well made. It is only my lack of knowledge and the lack of instructional help that has been the problem. If I manage to get things working as I want them I will come back and update my review.
I’ll start my review by saying that the projector is smaller than expected but it’s amazing! It’s very easy to set up as you only need to plug in the power cable and then set the desired angle for the projection screen.
The device will turn on within a minute and the first thing you see is a selection of apps such as Netflix., YouTube, and Google Play (wow)! You can actually download apps and watch your films directly from the projector which is something I’ve never seen before. The projector can be connected to the wifi and then it’s like a smart TV.
The image quality is amazing and will look even better on a projector screen (looks amazing even when there’s a bit of light in the room). Very good software and user friendly. The speakers are not the best but for a projector they’re brilliant. The projector fan is not loud and I didn’t notice any overheating issues which is good. There is also a remote controller included which is very good.
The best thing about this projector is that you can zoom in/out using the settings which is handy if you need to fit the image in a frame and it has the option for keystone correction which is the best thing I’ve ever seen on a projector.
Pros:
– Lots of apps and works as a smart screen
– You can watch Netflix, YouTube, etc without a connection to a laptop or phone
– Miracast and other smart functionality which is handy and works perfectly
– Very easy to set up and it’s lightweight
– Tripod screw thread at the bottom of the device
– Great image quality
– Good speakers
– Smart functionality and very user friendly software
Cons:
– None!
I would highly recommend this product. 100% happy with it and it’s a great projector for the price.
