Y30 Native 1080P Projector Full HD Video Projector 1920 x 1080, ±50° 4D Keystone Correction Support 4k & Zoom,LCD LED Home Theater Projector Compatible with Phone,PC,TV Box,PS4

So I wanted a projector for some time now. I finally decided to splurge. I asked my community which one I should get because I knew a few people use some out here to host movie nights outside during the pandemic. This is the one I was told to get. I waited a bit to try it out because we had Christmas decorations over running our house. So once it was all packed away I finally tried it in the house. First was in the dining room in a corner so that’s the weird angle you see in the first picture. But my light was on even though it was dark outside. Then I tried it without the light and even better. The next night I tried it in the living room on a free wall. The picture gets huge! The wall color is a light grey so not a white background. The picture was still bright! And if you look at the right corner you will see my window. I had no blinds at the time and it was a bright sunny day! The picture was still good! Then once it got dark you could see even better! It was fun watching cartoons and movies on such a big wall! I haven’t tried it outside yet because I don’t like the cold but I can’t wait until summer to enjoy outdoor movies in our own back yard!! There is a school behind us so there will be lots of street lights but I think it will be ok still. Will update in the summer. At this time I’m super pleased. Sound is just fine for us but I think you can hook up speakers to it as well. Pay attention to the directions. There is a hint in there about Netflix and if I would of paid attention I would of realized I had it hooked up correctly. I use mine with a fire stick. Works perfectly! It’s worth the money! I’m so happy I asked neighbors on their opinions. Since I got this I have shared it with my friends and other neighbors and five of my friends have purchased one! Some are using them for camping. How fun!

Starting off, can't beat the quality to price on this projector, but I think expectations should be proportional to the product and price. Its a good budget projector for causal use, its not in the same league as high-end projectors nor should you expect it to be. Its not going to be super bright in a bright room, color accuracy isn't great but Im not trying to watch 4k movies on it either. I have been using this projector as my bedroom TV for watching tv and movies with my wife after the kids go to bed for almost three years, It sits on a dresser at the foot of the bed and is projected about 8 feet against a light-colored wall with no screen. Overall, it's been great. I suggest keeping the box for as long as you have the projector in-case you have any issues. -Setup was simple. (Blu-ray and Google TV) The projector uses a digital keystone correction so not great but honestly not a big deal for my use case. I used a YouTube video with test pattern to get it all aligned and focused. - Picture Quality is clear and Bright even with our bedside table lamps on. During the day if we have the curtains closed to block out direct sunlight its dimmer but still watchable. See my warranty exchange below for some more details. - Sound It does have stereo speakers and for the first year that's all we used, and is more than adequate for most casual usage, however as I don't move the projector around, I got a nice set of PC Speakers with subwoofer and connected it to the projector' 3.5mm audio out for much fuller sound. - The remote works and is basic, but I only use it for getting into the settings, otherwise I use my google tv remote to turn it on and adjust volume. **Warranty Exchanged** As noted on other reviews I did start to get some brown spots appearing on the screen (again this is not a high-end projector and it was 2 years after I got it that they appeared), however this projector has a three-year warranty. I contacted the company, and they had me send my old one back and they sent a new replacement. This is why I say keep the box. To be honest I didn't realize the projector had the three year warranty until I was about to throw out the box. The projector does have a filter in the front that needs to be cleaned out. My projector was not in a dusty environment but even with regular dusting and cleaning it must have gotten too warm.

Things I wish I had known before I bought it: 1) Contrary to the description, there is NO motorized zoom. The only zoom functions are the X and Y zoom controls which digitally scale (down) the image into a smaller area. You will not have full resolution if you use the zoom. 2) The keystone control is also digitally scales the image, and you will not have full resolution if you change the keystone. 3) The image is centered in front of the projector. The projector will always be in front of the middle of the image unless you use the digital keystone function. Many projectors offset the image so the projector is close to or even below the bottom of the image. This one does not. 4) A note in the manual "Part of the video in Netflix and the main video formats can not be exported externally due to copyright protection (HDCP protocol)." I take this to mean that the projector is not a valid HDCP device. That is very disturbing for a display product with HDMI inputs. Other notes: It is nowhere near as bright as my 6,000 ANSI lumen Panasonic projector, but it is close to my 2,400 ANSI lumen HP Projector. I'm currently using it with VGA input, so the HDCP issues mentioned in the manual aren't affecting me. The quality of the glass seems pretty good. It carries pretty even brightness and focus across the whole screen. The mount points are 155mm x 225mm and require four 10mm M4 screws. It is nicely light weight at less than 8 lbs. The focus range is about 5' to 18' For every foot of distance from the projector to the screen, you get abut 9.6 inches of diagonal screen size (16:9 aspect ratio). So at 5' distance, your screen is about 48" diagonal, 8' gives 77", 10' gives 96", 14' gives 135" and 18' gives 173". For indoor use under conference room lighting on a good projection screen, you probably don't want to make it much bigger than 96" diagonal (for a presentation. Obviously, screen size and brightness are a direct trade off. If you want it brighter, use a smaller screen.) The 15 second power on time and the instant power off time (fan doesn't continue to run) are really nice. I'm sure I'll use this projector from time to time. I wish the seller wouldn't claim a motorized zoom when there is no mechanical zoom mechanism at all!

1-month review. Per the price tag, this is a budget $200-225 generic projector. That said, there looks to be 1000's of entries in this weight class. My projector application is ceiling mounted in a garage which we've converted into our in-home gym during quarantine. Projector needs to be bright enough to handle some usage during dusk hours with the garage open and daytime hours with the garage closed despite ambient light from windows along the top of our garage door. Night time any/all projectors should work. It's the ability to work with ambient light that I care about. I am not picky about video quality; 1080P is the minimum. Primary source is a TCL Alto 8+ Soundbar with built-in FireTV so the projector audio has never been used. Based on reviews, decided to replace my another budget (lightning deal) projector, the GooDee BL98 with this YABER Y30 model. Both models are in the $200-225 range. The GooDee had pretty terrible, washed out colors with a clear lack of brightness in my application. The Yaber was significantly better across the board. Best part is that the FireTV remote can control the Yaber project power on/off so I could ditch the Yaber remote entirely. The Yaber is the rare projector with both vertical and horizontal keystones making it more accommodating for different throw environments. Lux vs Lumens Name brand projectors all advertise lumens as it is the total output of visible light from a light source making for easy comparison between products. It's how you compare all light bulbs! The generic projectors choose to report lux as a way to confuse consumers. Lux is the amount of light that is cast on a surface and is dependent on the distance and angle from the bulb to the surface. Never do the generic projectors tell you the distance and angle they're using to calculate the lux of their product. Moreover, the consumer's application will undoubtedly vary from the manufacturer's chosen angle/distance. Thus, the generic manufacturer chooses an arbitrary angle/distance so that they can report much higher lux values giving the appearance that their projectors are in the same class as their competitors / more expensive projectors. As an example, they could decide to throw at 1m (3 ft) away from the screen, dead center on a tripod and report 15,000 lux. Is that better than a 4,000 lumens projector? Probably not! Is it useful? Nope, nobody sets their projector up like this. Does let me report a big number for my product and do consumers like big numbers so they buy more of my product? Yes, they do. tldr; lux is a joke. Since lumens isn't provided, the only real test is to get it, mount it, and see for yourself. Return it if it's not to your liking and punish these manufacturers for providing fake brightness metrics. Yaber Y30 advertises as 7200 L which is in lux. The GooDee BL98 used to have 6800 lux on its product page but that's been replaced with 1 candela lux (LoL). My original garage projector was the Anker Nebula Mars II which is rated at 300 lumens. This was not good enough unless it was the darkest of nights. The GooDee is probably 2x that but with poor picture quality. The Yaber is likely 2.5 - 3.0x the Anker with decent picture quality. My living room name brand projector (Optoma HD39HDR) is rated at 4000 lumens and would blow away all of these garage projectors but at 4x the cost. Because I was able to try an inferior model in this same price class, the Yaber looks like a champion and a keeper at this price point. Your mileage may vary.

We wanted an upgrade from our outdoor movie 1000 lumen projector so that we could have something that would also work in low to medium light situations without washing out the picture. After lots of research, reading reviews we settled on this projector. There were several factors that contributed to picking this wonderful product... part of it being the balance between cost and features. In looking for a projector we wanted a good quality and focused picture, it had to fit a 120" projector screen needing a reasonable mounting distance and it had to be bright enough to still be visible in medium lighting situations. A short throw projector seemed to be too expensive. This projector isn't a true short throw but roughly a mid range and is mounted 8 feet away and fits our screen. The unit is 7200 lumens and it is very bright and allows the image to be clear and visible in low to medium or so lighting situations. We have not tried bright lighting or daylight but it seems the picture would still be visible just a bit more washed out. The pictures I added shows medium lighting (football) and dark light (cartoon drawing). Since it is a ceiling mount, we needed to have adjustable features on the remote and this allows you to tilt and turn the lens to center the image on the screen. This feature is a big plus however you still have to manually adjust the lens to change the focus. The focus would need to be adjusted anytime you move the projector. The remote works great but is fairly basic in regards to the rest of the projector. Overall, balancing features and cost, this unit will NOT disappoint and is a worthy purchase. We are extremely happy we took a chance and picked this projector. Only time will tell how long the projector bulb will last but I expect we can enjoy all sorts of entertainment over a few years before having to replace it.

Wow, This is one awesome projector for the price! Great actual 1080p native video that looks like a 1080p tv, but one that you can make the screen go up to 200 inches. It only weighs a couple of pounds and is very easy to mount. You just remove the 4 sticky bumpers at the bottom of the feet to reveal where the mount screws go. I had it up in less than 20 minutes with the -Vivo universal adjustable ceiling mount (MOUNT-VPO1W)-. For awhile I was searching for something decent priced and at least close to tv quality for my new living/ theatre room but had no luck sub 200$. The low lumens and horrible picture quality just didn’t cut it. Then I saw this for under 300$. I have my screen at 120 inches and built a stand for around it so all it needed was the right projector. For us, it was this! It supports 4K and HD quality games movies and videos, and It has a really great picture with everything we use. Even in the daytime with the sun shining in the picture is still great. I also bought an HDMI switch to 5 HDMI ports so we can easily switch between cable box, firestick, Wii, ps4, and our pandora box 6 without always hooking and unhooking HDMI wires from the projector. *Note* This is by no means a 4K quality projector. it is a native 1080p which looks good even at 200”. If you want a 4K projector (not one that just supports it) it’s going to cost you a couple of grand, but if you just want something with good tv quality picture and good brightness so it can be viewed during the day in your living room, this is what you want. *When I say can be viewed during the day I don't mean outside in direct sunlight, but even with the sun shining in from 3 different windows with slightly see-through curtains it works great and we have no problem with viewing during the daytime, or anytime for that matter. The speakers aren’t terrible, but I use my surround sound which I recommended or at least some speakers. The fan being somewhat adjustable is a nice feature and to us, it runs very quiet. I really like that the vertical and horizontal keystone is controlled by the remote and not manually. It works very well to get nice straight edges easily. The only way to make the screen bigger is to move the projector back farther because there is no zoom-in feature on this. That’s the one feature I wish it did have, but it does have an up and down “backward zoom” to ensure your screen fits perfectly in the space you want it. We use this as our main tv over our 4K 70” smart sharp tv (which says something!) I’ve included a bunch of pictures that’ll help with getting an idea of the picture quality. One other thing to note is *if you’re not getting any sound from your fire stick, cable box, or any other device it’s because of Dolby sound. Go to your audio settings and turn it off and you’ll be good to go. Also,* if your video isn’t coming through or it’s skipping in and out of audio and video, try another HDMI cable. I had that problem when I received my projector but it was a faulty HDMI, changed it and it worked perfectly. Very happy with my purchase and so is the family! 5 stars and highly recommended. *2 months in and everything is still perfect! We use this every day and have yet to run into any problems. Great purchase and worth every penny!

So, I thought my projector was defective since the focus ring bottomed out when the projector around 10' from the screen which throws about a 108" image. I emailed Yaber support about this and they promptly replied with the generic advice about checking zoom and keystone settings, etc. After some back and forth I quite bluntly asked if the projector was actually capable of hitting the 200" image size they claim it can. Here was the response: -------------- BEGIN YABER SUPPORT EMAIL ---------------- Sorry, I need to explain this in detail. The previous mode can support this distance. Previously, our projector can also support the projection of large images at short distances, but according to feedback from other buyers, doing so will sacrifice clarity. (The sharpness of all projectors will decrease with the enlargement of the picture.) In order to improve the problem of inability to focus, we have made technical improvements. The current version has better focus effect than before, but the projection distance is reduced. I'm sorry ... It's our mistake haven't change the manual yet. Could you please adjust the distance from the projector to the screen? Sorry ... All current LCD projectors have such a problem. The closer the projector is, the smaller the picture, the better the brightness and sharpness. If you want to get a larger picture size, you need to sacrifice some brightness and sharpness to achieve. Sorry our projector is the same ... Hope you understand I'm sorry for the inconvenience. In order to show compensation, how about I apply for our company to refund you $30? -------------- END YABER SUPPORT EMAIL ---------------- I emailed back and pointed out it wasn't just the manual that was wrong, but also the descriptions on Amazon and their own website. I got back this... -------------- BEGIN YABER SUPPORT EMAIL ---------------- Thank you for pointing out our problem. I have reported it to the sales department and asked them to modify the product description. Sorry.. but based on feedback from other customers, this projector is suitable for home theater environment. So we really hope that you could keep our projector for use in the bedroom or in the courtyard at night. Really hope you could give us a chance to do something to compensate you. How about I apply for our company to refund you $60? What do you think of this solution? -------------- END YABER SUPPORT EMAIL ---------------- So, with all that in mind... the picture quality and brightness are pretty good. If you only need a 100" (give or take) image, go ahead and buy this one. Then email support about their false advertising a few times and score yourself a $60 rebate.

First, I was extremely disappointed the product box came damaged (although the shipping box was fine). Clearly, someone had at least attempted to open this box before (see first image). The remote control back was also partially snapped on (and in an illogical fashion if you are trying to emphasize how to remove the back). These issues lead me to believe I may have received a previously used unit. Factor that possibility into the image quality portion of this review . . . Even though the box is black and the image on the box depicts the black/silver/charcoal projector, I did receive a white projector (which is what I ordered). The projected image is fabulously bright in (even) a not-perfectly darkened room. I used this in a space with three skylights AND one large archway with an all-glass atrium attached. This room is NEVER fully dark. Even so, at night the image is fantastically bright (even though there is always a fair amount of ambient City light coming in from the skylights and atrium). The image is very good in the evening and even decently visible during the day, although one skylight then washes out a part of the screen. [This was expected, of course, and OK as the projector is intended for use mostly during nights. I might make a retractable shade for the one skylight to enhance daytime use if ultimately necessary.] I am attaching 5 images displayed by the projector, including 2 used in the WORST case scenario -- full daylight. [ Projected images are from the movie "A Prairie Home Companion" (2006, PictureHouse, distributed by: New Line, Director: Robert Altman). This is from a DVD up-scaled to 1080. I have no doubt Blu-Ray would look even better, but my Mom (for whom I am installing various A/V equipment) surprisingly doesn't have one available at the moment. Three images taken in the dark show great brightness. The MPAA rating screen and the white screen with text show pretty decent uniformity (most projectors -- especially inexpensive ones -- have problems in this area, often with greater center brightness and/or edge washout). The Harold Lloyd ad is a 4:3 aspect image -- the black bars left and right (in a 16:9 projected image!) are, indeed almost perfectly black -- virtually no bleed. So far, so good! In the two daylight images you will note the light wash of the left side of the screen from the skylight just above and to the left of the screen. [This is NOT the projector's fault, obviously!] The displayed images are still viewable, although obviously only a fraction as good as during the night. [I have included one medium-to-dark image (singer) and one image with dramatic contrast between light and dark. Much of the detail is visible even in a very bright room. ] Unfortunately, I am disappointed with the apparent resolution and focusing abilities of the Yaber Y30 projector. The projector's menus were initially almost unreadable when significant (about +37) vertical keystone adjustment was applied (clearly this adjustment is digital, so it drops a LOT of pixels to achieve it!). It also seemed just about impossible to focus at such an angle. I then raised the projector another 17 inches or so and was able to reduce vertical keystone to +16. At that point the menus become reasonably clear and the whole image seems in pretty good focus (which is how all photos accompanying this review were taken). Long term, this shortcoming would not be an issue in THIS installation as a permanent ceiling mount is envisioned, enabling fairly on-axis throws. However, the projector claims to have STRONG keystone adjustment capabilities. It is true in specifications, but not true in image quality (too many pixels dropped? see above)! [I do, however, leave open the possibility that the unit may have been damaged (see first paragraph).] One other significant negative is that the focusing ring is AWFUL. It is extremely thin, not properly knurled and barely protrudes from the housing when focused at "optimal" projection distance of 9 feet or so; in other words, it is difficult to grasp. Someone with no previous projector experience would likely NOT know how to properly focus this (the manual is very weak in this area, BTW, with just one mention on the graphical features listing). To give an idea how awful this is, I half-expected a MOTORIZED focus feature -- and of course could not find such on the remote or in the menus (since there is no motorized focus at this price point!). [If the projector is ceiling installed and eventually goes out of focus (heat, building vibration, other factors can cause this) -- imagine what a pain (and danger) this POOR FOCUS RING DESIGN could be when up on a ladder. In this particular installation the ceiling is at 10.5 feet! ] If you are planning to often place this projector in different environments, these two issues (keystone and manual focus) are in my opinion a total deal breaker. Another significant disappointment is the remote. The whole back snaps on with very thin, brittle looking/feeling clips; there is no battery compartment door. I'm pretty certain these clips would break after replacing batteries once or twice -- especially with an impatient user like my Mom. Also on the remote: projector orientation (front, rear-screen, upside down/ceiling mount) is a very prominent button. An unskilled newbie (again, like my Mom) might hit the button and be freaked out that everything is mirrored/backwards/upside down. A better option would be to have that button invoke a graphical menu which displays all 4 options on screen (in proper orientations, that would be EASY!) -- and then select the proper one with the <>^v buttons . . . The speakers are barely adequate (although, again, in this installation moot due to a sound system being available). Be aware of this if you are contemplating traveling presentations. I am trying the "WiMiUS Newest P28 6800 Lumens" tomorrow. It seems to address all the issues and their website is significantly better maintained/updated. They seem possibly more trustworthy in this sphere. This Yaber is going back. While the brightness is impressive, there are just too many shortcomings to ignore, especially if my Mom decides she doesn't want to use it (installed) long-term and it becomes a travel companion to someone else.

Los materiales son de muy baja calidad, el precio es excesivo para lo que es. La imagen es de muy mala calidad. A la segunda usada ya no servía el proyector. MUY MALA EXPERIENCIA CON ESTE PROYECTOR.

Really a very good product. Worth of spending money. Best picture quality and even good looking projector. Also you get fast delivery. You can buy this if you really want to see best quality movies.
