Love it , works great , I wish the speaker was a bit louder but other than that, no complaints

It was a gift. Loved by the recipient. 8ft by 5 ft in the wall

The projector displays a crisp and bright picture. In my usage I preferred a wired connection, either with the iphone cable or hdmi to my laptop. Note that when using the screen mirror function there would always be a buffer. That is why wired is the way to go. The remote is responsive to the menu functionality. Overall pretty satisfied with the picture, ease of use, and number of ports. The built in speaker is decent but an external speaker is a must to enjoy your movie time!

We were pleasantly surprised at how fast and easy it was to set up and use this projector. We didnt find instructions in the box, but no worries, there are QR codes right on the box that quickly bring you to the Users Manual. Set up is simple and only took my husband a few minutes. Half the battle is finding the right location to project to and from, but once that is done you only need to plug in the projector and turn it on. Theres no warm up period like with those old projectors from grade school, it starts right up. Connecting it to our home wifi was straightforward using the on-screen prompts, and from there I only needed to find something to stream from my phone or computer. We tend to use the (Windows) computer for projecting so we still have our phones available while the movie runs, but mirroring our phones is also quick and simple. I appreciate the included easy-to-navigate remote. The picture is surprisingly crisp and clear, even when projecting from 12 feet away in a somewhat light room, and the colors are quite rich. Projectors have come a long way in that regard! Even with the slight tint of the wall, the colors were so similar to the colors on the computer I was streaming from that I could barely tell the difference between the two. Im not a super visual person but I think just about anyone would be satisfied with the image quality from this projector. My photographer husband noticed the difference, but even he didnt mind it. The solution, of course, is to paint the wall white, or buy a screen, if it bothers you a lot, but I dont find it necessary. Also, there are easy keystone and focus adjustment tools, but everything looked great out of the box so we havent needed to use them. As other reviewers have noted, there is considerable fan noise, which is probably the biggest downside to this projector. I realize its necessary to have a fan inside the unit, but Id be lying if I said it wasnt noticeable and a little distracting. The projectors sound system is fine for most uses, but hooking up our Bose Soundbar to it takes it to the next level. We have no problem with the sound syncing with the picture - everything seems integrated and creates an impactful experience! We dont care for how a permanent large screen tv looks in our home, so this is a great solution to have a very large picture without a large screen tv. Set-up and use are super-simple and produce a pretty darn good viewing experience. We are very pleased with this the Nexigo PJ20 projector!

One of the brightest and easiest projectors I have ever owned. Instructions are easy to read and to follow. The layout is easy to navigate and very user friendly. Overall picture quality is fantastic, I’m a huge fan. The sound is decent and you are able to watch an entire movie and hear it. I love love this projector. One flaw is the air filter that can be removed and clean, just always seems to be in the way when moving it.

The picture was great in a well lit room! It was easy to use. I like that I didnt need to buy an adapter to connect it with my iPad. My only complaint is that it runs loud.

This little projector is so cool. We literally set it up in just a few minutes. The remote control allows you to get perfect focus, choose youse media format, we used the Apple IOS, and BAM! You are projecting your movie. Highly recommend this projector.

The projector is easy to set up and the picture quality is HD as advertised. I was worried the picture would be a little blurry but that has not been the case. The projector is very easy to pickup and move which I have taken advantage of and watched tv in every room of the house. The speaker in the projector is a little quiet, Id recommend buying some speakers for it.

The Nexigo PJ20 projector is marketed as an outdoor projector, and Im sure it could be used well for that; however, I needed something to use for family movie nights indoors and the projector works well for that as well. The good: The picture quality is strong for a 1080p projector. Keystone adjustments are quick and exact to accommodate the distance of throw to the wall and angle of the projector itself. Dialing in the focus around the edges can be a bit tricky, but it isnt generally that distracting. As with most projectors, this isnt going to have the luminance of your LED screen TV, and the colors and picture are a bit washed out when viewing on a wall, but given the price, this is a really good option if you know what to expect going in. The connection options are great. I use this as a portable projector, but if you were to place it permanently, then youd have 2 HDMI inputs as well as an RCA adapted input to go along with the screen casting options available from your cell phone or tablet (Windows, IOS, and Android supported). With my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, I was able to quickly find the projector as a Smart Thing and connect wirelessly and cast my screen showing a YouTube video to the projector. I plugged a 4K Roku player into the back and it worked perfectly as well. The projector also has native Wi-Fi capability. Again, great assortment of options given the variety of ways we can get viewable content these days. I read where others were disappointed by the stock speakers; and again, if I were outside I could see how theyd be inadequate, but in my closed room, there was plenty of sound to drown out the on-board fan, and give everyone an enjoyable experience. Connecting to an external speaker took the audio to a room-filling level. The mediocre: The fan is too audible. I tried different inputs and that didnt seem to matter to quiet the sound of the fan. If you were outside watching this on a large screen (or sheet), then it wouldnt matter as much, but in a closed basement room, Id hope for something quieter so that the sound of the source video werent disturbed. As I mentioned, getting the focus dialed in is a frustrating task, but that may be the case with most projectors in this class. The center of the frame is crystal clear. The included remote control is sufficient, but not exactly fully-loaded with features. And...I dont understand why manufacturers wouldnt bother including 2 AAA batteries so that the customers dont have to go rummaging through drawers to find them when unboxing their new electronics. Summary: This is a great option for a full HD projector with a variety of connection capabilities with adequate sound options. It is my belief that with some extra attention, this thing can easily become a centerpiece of your home theater, or outdoor watch party. If it were in a fixed location, Id spend time dialing in the focus a bit more, aim it at a screen intended for projectors rather than a neutrally painted wall, and hook it up to a solid sound system. With those tweaks, I suspect I would be able to fool my friends into thinking I spent HUNDREDS of dollars more than this actually costs. Theres no way to know the durability of the lamps without months/years of experience, but out of the box this performs really well.

My family doesn’t watch TV, ever. But we do like to watch streaming shows during meals. Three people staring at a tablet can get old real fast. I didn’t want to hang a display in the dining room so I decided to give a projector a try. Having used several NexiGo products in the past, particularly cameras, I decided to give their budget projector, the PJ20, a try. It had a great deal for Black Friday which made it too good to pass up. This review does not touch on all of the capability of the PJ20, but it does cover my use case in detail. Unboxing the projector and getting the initial setup done is a piece of cake. I found a space at the end of the table facing a blank wall, setup both WiFi and Bluetooth, and got the keystone and focus set. First thing I found was that the image was tilted to the side. I was worried that the projector was wonked but when I pulled out a bubble level I found that the table itself had a slight tilt. Taking that slight tile and blowing it up to a 6’ across screen really exaggerates the effect. Fortunately, this could be solved with a notepad under one corner. Having a built in level and adjustable feet would have made this a bit easier (especially for people who use the projector on the road), but you can’t really expect that at this price point. Next thing I noticed was how the focus and keystone correction interact. This projector uses an optical keystone correction instead of a digital one. This has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of optical keystone is that you don’t end up with jagged effects from pixels being stretched or compressed by the keystone correction. The disadvantage you get is that the focus is not quite consistent when correcting the keystone. Depending on how much correction is applied, it becomes impossible to have both the center and outside corners in focus at the same time. This is not something you are likely to notice with video content (as long as you focus the center of the screen), but if you are showing computer content such as text it may be noticeable. Easiest solution here was to get the projector up higher. For some quick testing, a 20” stool (on the table) was good enough and put the image high enough to be comfortable for viewing while seated. When the image is straight on you can get good focus for both the center and the sides. Speaking of focus, any time you push the focus buttons on the remote, a test pattern is displayed that helps to make the adjustments. It goes back to your regular content a couple of seconds after you stop pushing the buttons. Now that it is ready to go, time to try out some media. First attempt as having the trusty tablet feed video to the projector using a USB-C to HDMI hub that I travel with. I’ve used it with my phone many times to throw content (including movies) onto TVs at hotels. I plugged it in, switching input to HDMI 1, and there was my tablet’s screen on the wall. Looked great until I started playing a movie with Netflix and everything went black. Welcome to the wonderful world of DRM (Digital Rights Management). There are warning on the product page about major streaming services not working with wireless display on the projector. Unfortunately, even a wired display has the same issue when being fed from an Android tablet. Services that don’t impose DRM, such as YouTube, displayed fine but if you have paid services, it is likely they won’t work. Time for plan B. I took an old Chromecast (second generation), grabbed a short USB cable, and plugged it into the projector. The Chromecast is plugged into the HDMI input and one of the projector’s USB ports is providing power. Turned it on, and after a minute for the Chromecast to boot up its home screen appeared on the wall. So, next, fire up the tablet again, back into Netflix, and this time tell it to cast to the Chromecast. Success! The movie was playing on the wall big as life. And by big as life, I mean an image that was 68” across (diagonal) at 92” distance from the projector face. Let’s talk about image quality. Unfortunately, I can’t give an accurate description here due to two factors that impeded my test. First, it was daytime and there was a huge amount of ambient light. The image was still watchable, but it was very low contrast. I’m pretty sure that in the evening it will be fine in that regard. Next up was the color. Unfortunately, again, I don’t have the right setup. I haven’t picked up a screen yet and was throwing the image at a wall which is a bit of a yellowish beige color. Despite both of these encumbrances, the image was still sharp and any text on screen was easy to read. For general media consumption, I’ve never seen the need for anything more than 1080p, which this projector handles just fine. Next is sound. The built-in speaker is loud. Loud enough that it caught me off guard when the movie started and I had the volume cranked as I was expecting the same tin can speakers that most computer monitors have. I had to dial the volume back to about 30% to be comfortable. You could fill a large meeting room with the sound from the built-in speaker. The fidelity isn’t as good as you get with a separate sound system though, so this was the next area I tried out. I have a Sony portable speaker that works with either Bluetooth or wired. Tried it out with Bluetooth first. It was easy to detect and setup but the sound was out of sync with the video. Yes, I’m on 5Ghz WiFi. This is a known issue with this particular speaker and I had the same issue when using it with a tablet, so no real surprise here. Pulled out an audio cable and hooked it up to the projector that way. Sound switched from the internal speaker to the Sony as soon as the cable was plugged in and it sounded great. With that we have a working streaming video setup. I do have a few improvements planned but I need to order (or wait for deliveries) on them. First off, of course, I need a proper screen. An off-white wall just doesn’t work right. That is on me and would affect any projector. Next up, the media source. Another Black Friday deal I ran across is a new Chromecast with Google TV. It won’t be here for another week but once it is I’ll be able to stream Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, and Plex (the four sources I use for most of my content) without having to use a phone or tablet. I should be able to hook it up the same way as the current Chromecast. Last thing I’m planning to get is an adjustable projector stand so I can get the ideal height without having to worry about keystone adjustment. Of course, no product is perfect, especially at this price point. There are a few things that could be better but I won’t hold it against the PJ20 based on the price point it operates at. The biggest issue is the fan. It is loud, really loud. If you are watching a quiet show, it will be very noticeable. The case for a projector like this is mostly hollow. It wouldn’t be too hard to put a couple more fans in that run at lower speed so that one fan doesn’t have to work so hard. The fans could also be set to adjust speed based on temperature so that they don’t have to run full speed all the time. This is an improvement that wouldn’t need to add much cost to the unit. Something else that would be handy, but again isn’t expected at this price point, is a leveling system. Put a small bubble level in the top of the projector and make the feet adjustable. If someone is using the projector for a demo on the road, and the setup is ideal, being able to adjust without eyeballing and sliding stacks of paper under the feet would be much more professional. Last thing is integration with streaming. Again, probably too big of ask at this price point but still worth considering. Ideally would be to build streaming right into the projector, but I don’t see that happening except on models costing twice as much. One compromise would be to add two features. First, allow one of the USB ports to remain powered when the projector power is switched off. This would allow a streaming stick (such as a Chromecast) to stay active instead of having to boot up from cold every time the projector is turned on. The next thing, would requires the powered USB to work, is to support CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) for the HDMI ports. When my Chromecast is hooked up to a TV I can shout at the nearest Google smart device, “OK Google, turn on the kitchen TV”. The Chromecast will then tell the TV to turn on and it will be ready for use without me having to hunt down a remote. It would be great to be able to turn a projector on the same way. There you have it. For an entry-level projector you can’t ask for much more. As long as you don’t set your expectations above the price point you will be very happy with the NexiGo PJ20.
