Nebula Capsule 3

Compared a few portable projectors for use in my van. I want to remove my ceiling-mounted TV because I keep bumping my head on it, so I'm looking for something easy to set up and compact. Pairing this with a 40-inch Pile self-standing screen. I compared the Aurzen Boom Air and Nebula Capsule 3. Overall, I like the Nebula Capsule 3 and will keep that. - Picture Sharpness > Nebula - Brightness > tied between the two - Sound > Nebula (Clearer and fuller) - Overall projector noise > Nebula (you can hear the fan in the Aurzen) - Cost > Aurzen Boom Air - Overall value > Nebula If you can get the Nebula on sale, spend the extra 100 dollars for a better overall product. - Smaller footprint and more portable, especially for travel and camping. - Built-in battery makes it super easy to whip out and get your video up and running. no fuss.

It works well and I'm impressed with the video and sound quality. Setup was very easy, and the Google TV Interface is very intuitive. I'm planning on using this projector while camping on a 40" screen. So power is important to me. In measuring the power, it needs 20 volts, so not all USB battery banks will work. On the watts end, I measured 36 watts on standard while the interior battery was charging. After the battery was charged, it dropped down to 26 watts. On eco mode with a charged battery, it drew 15 watts. The automatic focus and keystone works well too, and actavates each time the unit is powered on. Also, dispite some of the reviews and comments, it does have a zoom function, but it's well hidden in the settings mune. As for the brightness, it is perfectly fine on smaller screens.

Great projector, good clarity of the projection, great software and great sound in the speakers. This is the perfect travel companion.

This gadget along with my Eufy 11s robovac have got to be my top 2 favorite purchases/investments this year, if not this decade. I've been eyeing portable projectors on and off for a few years now because I don't own a TV and don't want to bc I find them clunky and easily outdated. So I tend to watch videos on my laptop instead. That's gotten hard on the eyes over the years and not so great for when I have guests over. I've only had this little powerhouse for less than a week but I'm already in love! I'm pretty indecisive, esp with large purchases, so I looked at a lot of options before opting for the Nebula b/c it's kind of expensive relative to some of the other pocket projectors out there. But over the years, it's the one that keeps popping up at the top of review articles/lists and had the full gamut of things that I was looking for. So I finally bit the bullet and I am SO, SO glad that I did! The Pros: - Truly Wireless: I've seen other options that didn't have bluetooth compatibility or issues w/airplay or screen mirroring. Not this guy. I've read other reviews have issues with some of the apps but maybe I'm just lucky or don't use as many as others b/c I've had no problem finding, downloading or playing from the apps I typically use. For background, those are: Amazon Prime Video, Rakuten Viki, Youtube, Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, and ESPN. - Crisp video quality: I'll upload a pic once I remember to take one soon but it's defo been great video quality for me! - Strong Battery Life: it lasts about as long as advertised, ~4hrs give or take and that is pretty darn good! When I'm binging and need battery to go longer I just plug in my portable battery pack and voila! Hours more play time. - Great Audio: powerful speaker quality, didn't have to connect it to my bluetooth speaker even once (in fact, it doubles as a bluetooth speaker on its own!) - Automatic Keystone Correction: the automatic correction isn't always perfect, esp if you try to project from an angle but it's still pretty cool that it has it as a built in function! And there's an option to override it and adjust manually as well. - Good Heft: it's got a good weight to it. That's not to say it's heavy or inconvenient at all but it has a weight that feels sturdy and non-flimsy to me. The Con: - No zoom in/out function so it's not quite as simple as placing it anywhere you want and getting the size & straightness you want. Still, given it's small size and sturdy weight, it's still pretty convenient once you fiddle around and get the right balance/location for it. - The cooling fan can be quite loud (almost as loud a traditional/old school projector) so when you're navigating around before playing a video you can definitely hear it and that kind of annoys me but it's not an issue at all once you start playing a video and the audio drowns it out. - Tripod sold separately - not a huge deal (see note above re: zoom) and I know most projectors don't include one either but for the price it would've been nice to have included and would've made the initial set up a lot more seamless.

Extremely happy with the size and quality of this projector. The picture clarity and color is excellent up to the edge of its limits, specifically in the dark. Light does reduce picture brightness and quality respectively to how bright it is. It's extremely portable, but I do recommend getting a screw in stand to help position the screen better. The obstacle avoidance and depth detector works well. There is a bit of delay when using the remote, so account for that. The sound is decent but connecting a Bluetooth speaker is preferable.

its been months I am using and now its making a sound and `i reported it via warranty and Nebula denied service as the seller is not authorised, this should have been mentioned here now i am stuck with this

I've only been playing with it so far, haven't given it a really good test yet but so far this thing has seriously impressed me. The fan is hardly noticeable at all and that tiny little speaker? CRAP it does a good job. I mean if you're trying to watch a movie outside on a 10 foot screen with 30 people... temper your expectations. Put it in your bedroom or, in may case, have a movie night in the tent while out camping and this thing is perfect. I placed it not 2 feet from a wall just to see if it would actually focus that close up... YUP and the auto focus and keystone worked flawlessly. In fact, if you put it that close to a wall, you'll see what the shape of the picture should be and what the keystone correction has accomplished and it's amazing how well it works. I can't speak to the battery longevity yet, I've only used it while plugged in so I can't offer any insight there. The set up isn't terrible, which is nice because I was only trying to find the settings to check on the battery charge level and wound up having to set up all my accounts first. The remote is simple and works perfectly and it's even backlit for cripe sakes! The app though... so far... useless. It does absolutely nothing. It found and connected to the projector right away and then... nothing. Ah well, whatever. I got this on sale and at 500 Canadian I paid, I'd say it's worth it. At the regular 750 or whatever it was... wellllll then I'm not so sure. As a camping, portable projector, I'd say it's real hard to beat. Surprisingly small, great picture, quiet fan, loud clear speaker and a remote too. For a technical review, check out the videos on youtube, they do a far better job and I can. For a review from a non-technical, regular joe who's not a projector surgeon... this thing is awesome! Update... the app is working now, don't know why, it just is. I watched Edge of Tomorrow and still had 29% battery left. So it's good for a movie on battery power. It's only downfall is where the USB C connector is. To run it on power you need to plug into the USB C port. And that port is positioned such that you cannot lay it down flat and watch a movie on the ceiling. I'd call that a pretty small deal.

This projector is very high quality and highly recommended. Pros: - Google TV is in-built for all your streaming software - Supports Google Cast and Airplay (via Nebula software) - works even when it’s not too dark. - can be used as a standalone bluetooth speaker with dedicated button and quality is really good - automatic keystone adjustment and resize - compatible with camera tripods - compact size - very good picture 1080p resolution which is good enough for games and movies Cons: - doesn’t come with a stand or tripod - doesn’t come with a travel case - battery is good enough only for 1 movie - software sometimes freezes Despite the cons, this projector is the best compact projector I’ve seen especially for the price and portability.

A mi gusto le falta un poco de luminosidad

This was the projector I was looking for. DLP is the only way to go and laser with a light source. It's also insanely portable and I got the 360 swivel tilting stand which I highly recommend for easy setup from any spot. I really wanted a projector that could actually handle games at 60fps and do keystone at the same time. This one does. I have no lag issues, plus you can set it up in extreme game mode without keystone to get it to the 20ms or whatever but I don't think it would make a difference compared to the easy setup unless you plan on some competitive bs. Great picture quality, however, it's definitely a very low light or night projector. I don't use over 50% brightness on a 100 inch (silver) screen in total darkness and find 100% too much. The Google TV works great, you just have to be a bit patient since that is one area of sacrifice for the small form factor. It doesn't have a lot of processing power so navigating menus is a little slow. Everything runs great though, so I am also happy with the trade on processing speed for form factor. The sound is also really good for any projector. It's just like a little bt speaker. Others are quite terrible usually. Plus you'd want to plug any projector into a sound system if you want that experience. I actually liked this so much I bought a second one that's still sealed in the box.
