Hey, guys.

 

It's my first time here in geekzone and it's been a thrill. I've already been through some of the forum topics and it really is helpful. I didn't know that this kind of internet forum still exists. I'm so happy to stumble upon geekzone.

 

Anyhow, as the title goes, we are not looking to buy any big inch tv anytime soon as we want space. We're living in a small apartment and we just want to maximize the space as much as we can, thus, a portable projector.

 

We're looking at xgimi now and just wanted to ask for your suggestions on what can be one of the best budget portable projectors out there - available in New Zealand. I know that xgimi is a bit expensive, so we're also looking at Anker now. Maybe some of you guys are already spend on the good ones and bad ones (that needs to be avoided) so here we are asking for suggestions.

 

With our budget, well, we just want to have the best experience with the projector that we will be getting. Maybe a max of $1,500, but of course, if there's a very, very good projector half the price, why not.

 

Typical features we're looking for a projector, has usb (blessed if it has a usb-c), hdmi, bluetooth (to connect to an external sound bar), smart, chromecast or anything that our phones can easily be casted to it, 1080p maybe, 4k if the price is right (so far 4k portable projectors are around $2k, whoo!). So, yeah, I think that's all.

 

We'd love to know your suggestions. Thanks, geekzone! To more posts soon!

Xgimi is very good, if that's on your list and your budget extends to it, then you won't be disappointed.

Really now. Hahaha! Now, we are really thinking hard. We missed out on their mother's day sale as we were really outweighing if we will be getting a 'home projector' or a 'portable projector', from their product line, just because of the $400 price range difference.

No screens. We're just students and we will be sharing to buy a projector.

 

White wall prowess it is. 😂

I have an XGIMI Z6, we love it and the picture is awesome, we don’t have a screen either just a whiteish wall. Highly recommend the XGIMI wall mount also if it will stay in the same place.
