NEBULA Capsule 3 Laser Projector, Upgraded with Google TV and Official Netflix, Mini Smart TV Projector with Wi-Fi, Outdoor Portable Projectors, Dolby Digital, 120-Inch Screen, 2.5H Built-In Battery

Firstly, my review is from the perspective of a first time projector purchase and one of a nit-picky likes-her-tech to work, be straight-forward and no fuss. Spoiler alert I love this device, thank you Anker! The manual said charge to full first and pleased to say that was just ten minutes. Setup went through some basic positioning and then on to setting up Android TV. What an amazingly simple process, all driven from your Google App on your phone. A few nexts, oks and your WiFi and Google account are all setup. What a treat! Love it! All that was with the living room lights on and the screen was perfectly clear for that. Obviously challenged by the bright ambient light but I was surprised still how good it was. Quickly added Amazon Prime Video and picked Avatar. Lights out and.... oh wow! 300 ISO lumens and it's this good? I'm so so happy it's turned out so wonderfully sharp and bright and colours are so vivid. Further context, I usually watch on an OLED TV so I'm quite judgemental. No complaints here! Having read so many projector reviews whilst waiting for today I can say that no rainbow effect (wasn't sure what to expect to be fair) and detail at 1080P is just so sharp. Watching the credits roll up the screen and the text is pin sharp. The auto adjustments are such a boon, none of that zoom and twiddle the keystone. All done for you, fabulous! Audio is great too. I have a number of Bluetooth speakers from Bose, Marshall and was wondering if they would be needed but absolutely not. The bluetooth speaker feature of this device will mean only need to pack this for trips. Room for another pair of shoes! Here's the icing. I'm without my projector screen tonight so this was setup and projected on a wall. And it was that good already! On my proper screen it's going to be more amazing. If, like me, you were wondering if 300 lumens would be disappointing or the sound would be lacking, or the fan would be noisy or any other of the categories projectors are measured against then fear not. Android TV is brilliant too if you've not experienced that. I'm so glad it runs this OS. I'm going to bed this eve very very pleased with this purchase. It was pricey but I wanted a laser projector and it's exceeded my expectations. I'm sure it will yours too (unless you're money bags and can tolerate a huge noisy lump in the living room). So compact! too Thank you Anker for a great product x (ps will you please make a nice case for it soon!) Quick update after a few more days use. BBC iPlayer needs to be added. Simple enough after googling how but works perfectly once done. Netflix is supported but it's not the usual version so needs to be controlled via the Nebula mobile app. However I had a Fire TV stick not in use and that's sorted Netflix perfectly. What's also handy is that Plex and VLC apps are available so playing movies from you or NAS or an SD Card work (I used the later) and using a USB-C hub allows Ethernet too. I expect the Netflix point might annoy some people but it's easily solved and to mention AppleTV and Disney are all supported. Prime too obviously.

In a fully dark room, picture at 100inches is quality. I usually watch at around 60% brightness in this setup. If your rooms quite light, move the device closer to the wall to reduce screen size and crank it up to 100% and it’s just as good. Daylight it’s not possible to watch. But I imagine that’s the case for most projectors unless you are spending thousands. It’s short throw, at 3m away from the wall I can get 120 inches. I would highly recommend using with a quality camera tripod. I have a cheap screen but prefer to use the walls. There is a setting to change the wall colour if you have a pale yellow wall it will adjust the colours accordingly. Sound is phenomenal in a small room, I imagined having to buy a Bluetooth speaker but this really isn’t necessary. The fan is super quiet. At 100% brightness the fan runs louder than at 50%… and the less the brightness is the less power the unit consumes. At night I set the unit to power off in 90 minutes when I’m tired and fall to sleep watching, the volume set really low and the brightness on 10% and I can’t hear the fan. Battery life… I’ve done a few tests. At 100% brightness on a 120” screen watching sports I get 40 mins. At 50% brightness on the same screen size I get 105 mins. At 10% brightness I got just shy of 3 hours. I have an anker power bank, if you plug it in when the nebula is at 100% battery it will use the power bank until it empty’s it and then use its own battery, however if you run the nebula battery down to 10% and try to charge off the power bank whilst watching - it doesn’t work at all and the nebula just drains and turns off. So if you have a power bank and want to extend watch time on battery, do this with a fully charged nebula and drain the power bank and then the nebula, not the other way around - just a little quirk that I discovered. Is it a TV replacement, probably not. For me it is, because I only really watch tv in the evenings, so I close the black out blind and the nebula preforms brilliantly. Also use it at night in my camper van. It uses very little power from my on board batteries. In conclusion, Is it worth the money… I think so, I have no regrets buying it. It’s feels quility, the sound is quality, the picture is quality and it uses very little power, less than a 16” MacBook. It’s portable. The only accessory you need to buy with it is a tripod- and maybe a screen if you have patterned walls.

Great, compact projector. Image is stunning, for what I use it for - viewing / streaming. Connectivity is good and I have a variety of headphones / buds paired. Having said this, the onboard speaker can hold its own. Casting is easy with Nebula app, including iOS. Get a case and a tripod / mount and it’s a great travel companion.

Great projector and reasonable value for money. Disappointed with the "auto only" focus and keystone compared to my original nebula which was manually adjustable for both, but i always ended up with a perfect rectangle and crisp focus. I think for the money it could have both manual and auto set up. Works well in half light, much brighter than my original projector.

Mi sono affacciato da poco al mondo dei proiettori portatili, e dopo averne provati diversi appena hai in mano un Nebula Capsule Laser 3 capisci che e' anni luce migliore di tutto il resto. Compatto, solido volume eccellente, sistema operativo rapido, qualità immagine eccezionale. Ha un costo importante ma se n'è innamorata anche mia moglie, ad ogni viaggio lo portiamo con noi ed in ogni albergo/hotel/appartamento avevamo la nostra "tv" su misura, con i nostri programmi preferiti salvati, l'assistente google....spettacolare! Per non parlare della chicca, la presa hdmi che permette di collegarci laptop e pc, passando da 15 pollici a 100. Ci guadagna la vista, l'experience complessiva, e non potrei mai più stare senza. E' un oggetto che viene invidiato e desiderato da chiunque lo veda. Mia moglie compresa! Non ha nulla a che vedere con i miniproiettori cinesi che possono essere paragonati ad un giocattolo, rispetto ad un prodotto premium e professionale come questo nebula laser 3!

Just received the Nebula last night and I am positively bluffed. I intend to use it as a replacement for television and was afraid it wouldn't be bright enough during the day. In full daylight in a bright room with traversing light, it is still perfectly visible and sufficient for daytime tv/news (image 1&2). At night/full darkness the image is perfect ( 3 is evening with full light on; 4 &5, in full darkness, the pictures dont do it justice) The sound is also unexpectedly good for the size. Better than expected.

ممتاز جدا وواضح والصوت عالي والوضوح ممتاز وتلقائي ويمديك تعدله يدوي عيوبة١-يعطيك ساعتين ونص فقط وعشان تحل الموضوع خل معك شاحن متنقل ٢-مافيه screen mirror لازم سلك HDMI مع الوصلة غير ذلك فهو متميز

Van alle nieuwste projectoren die er toen waren bij het lanceren van de Capsule 3 , is en blijft deze de beste die ik ooit heb gehad. Ik gebruik deze voor de V Califorian , zonder hechting omdat de popup roof open staat , kan je deze perfect boven je kast plaatsen. Persoonlijk heb ik een stereo speaker set ingebouw in het frame van het popup dak waardoor deze op analoge manier kan aangesloten worden op de projector. Maw, ik heb dus perfect stereo geluid 'achter' het projectiescherm en deze geeft behoorlijk scherpe belden en perfecte resolutie. Maakt geen lawaai , daar de vorm klein is past deze ook bijna overal en voelt heel sterk aan. Mensen die een projector zoeken voor outdoors, deze is het want hij past zich dynamisch aan zowel voor de afstand en hoek, als een bewegend projectiescherm ! (lichte wind, met sterke wind is dit natuurlijk logisch en ook ongemakkelijk)

Smidig liten projektor som ger förvånansvärt bra bild. Praktiskt med inbyggt batteri, högtalare och android tv. Har använts mer än förväntat av hela familjen.
