Not as described
This projector is not as described on Amazon. It is not 200 lumens, neither is it HD. It is 100 lumens andhas a resolution of 854x480, as detailed in the paper instruction manual. The software is clunky at times and you sometimes need to hold the remote very close to the sensor on the device. It has a mini HDMI slot which is a pain as you will need an adapter for USB sticks like ROKU. The mirroring function is awful as it cuts out after a while and you have to reset it.The picture quality is not bad, but you cannot adjust it in any way, other than with the focus wheel.What really annoys me is how the projector has been wrongly described on Amazon and they should amend this.The only great attribute is the build quality.I will do a factory reset and if it plays up it will definitely go back.

Amazing, feature packed little projector!
This projector is an amazing little device and is super handy for all it's unique features, such as the swiveling head which allows you to either project to the celling or wall. It's packed full of features thanks to having Android built in which makes this a "Smart Projector"It's quite bright for its size and the image quality isn't all that bad, for a couple hundred pounds it's certainly worth it and I highly recommend it to anyone who's interested.It comes with a great little protective sack, remote and charger.... everything you need to get started. I recommend a Bluetooth or wireless mouse and keyboard though, as the remote can be difficult to use when you need to type or navigate the operating system.

Does not work
This device hasn't worked once for me. I haven't been able to watch Youtube, watch a movie or a show. Nothing. I'm extremely disappointed as this is an expensive device with an idea that has a lot of potential. Unfortunately this device performs poorly and I would not recommend buying it. It's a waste of money.
