The Projector:The projector is nice and small, and easy to place, though I feel the power cable is too short. In the box, along with the projector, you'll find the power cable, an HDMI cable, a remote, and a silicone lens cap. The included screen is cloth and comes with hooks and quick-release adhesive to make it easy to find a place to hang it. I don't really have a good place that is flush against the wall, so I had to get a bit creative.Inputs: It has two HDMI ports, 1 USB port, one 3mm RCA input, and one 3mm headphone jack.The projector also has a little adjustable foot at the front to allow you to change the angle a bit.Up by the lens are the focus adjust and keystone adjust rings. You can control most of the functions from the buttons on the top of the projector, but you can't adjust the volume, so keep your remote handy.A minor gripe about the device is that the fans are a bit noisy, but if you have headphones on or a sound system I don't think you will notice it.Functions:I don't have any iOS devices and don't use media via USB, so I can't speak to those functions, but casting the screen from an Android projector is as easy as you would expect. I started the cast function on the projector and had no trouble finding it on my phone. I have my gaming computer hooked up to one input, and my PS4 connected to the other. Switching between HDMI ports is quick and easy, and the AV input option (cable not included) is great because I will be connecting my retro gaming consoles to the projector soon.The settings menu allows you to change screen rotation based on how you've mounted the projector, connect it to your WiFi, connect Bluetooth devices, change the display language, update firmware, and reset the projector to factory settings.I have two gripes about this device that should hopefully get fixed in a firmware update. Wifi settings and Bluetooth connections do not persist after the projector is powered off and on. Wifi isn't really needed, so that's not a big deal, but having to reconnect my headphones every time I turn the device on is annoying.Remote:The remote is a remote. Nothing crazy or fancy here. It's small and lightweight, and it's IR so you'll need to point it in the general direction of the front of the projector.Picture Quality:The picture quality is great. It's 1080p, which is just fine for what I need. I watch movies and play games in my office during my downtime, and I've had no issues with blur or screen tearing during games. It's nice and responsive, and the colors look great.Sound Quality:The projector has a built-in speaker which works well enough, and I guess the sound quality is good enough for built-ins, but I would recommend using headphones or external speakers. The sound through my Bluetooth headphones is as good as it is from any other device I connect it to, and the audio stays in perfect sync with the action onscreen.Screen:It's a big square piece of cloth with 6 eyelets to be used for hanging. The eyelets feel like they're well supported, so I don't need to worry about them tearing loose unless one of the kids decides to yell "Hey you guys!" before jumping and grabbing hold.Overall, I'm really happy with this unit and look forward to spending many much-needed breaks using it!

Wanted to get an inexpensive projector to use for Halloween decorations and maybe the occasional backyard movie night. After much searching, I decided on the Alvar RV500W – with discounts it was only $80.00. The initial setup was easy and it came with a 120″ screen that fit perfectly over my front window. I placed some Halloween videos on a USB thumb drive and plugged it into the projector – but nothing happened. I use Mac computers, so I reformatted the USB drive a couple of different ways, thinking that was the problem. Still nothing – so I went to the next option.
Using the iOS Cast feature I was able to send videos from my iPhone to the projector. The image quality and brightness were decent. Easy enough – but I still wanted the USB functionality – so I contacted Amazon and their response was to send a replacement. Got it the next day – the same issue persisted. Then I noticed an informational card included with the projector that provided an email address for customer support. I shot an email off that night and early the next morning I had a response. I needed to reformat my thumb drive to MS-DOS (FAT) ONLY – not (FAT32) or any various MAC OS format.
This did the trick – with one caveat. If using a Mac computer, when copying to an external drive – hidden files with a ._ prefix will be copied as well. This will confuse the projector – it won’t recognize that file format. There is an app called DotCleaner that can remove these unnecessary (hidden) files so the projector won’t attempt to play them.
Bottom line, I’m happy with my purchase and pleased with the quick and helpful customer support!
This mini projector has many cool features. I like that I was about to connect it wirelessly to my Android phone as well as my Windows 10 Laptop. As shown in the photos, it works better with lights off but is still visible even with all the lights on (as shown in the last picture).
Brightness: I’m doubtful as to whether it is really 15000 lumens as the Yaber V6 which I previously owned was slightly brighter although it was only 13000 lumens.
Quality: I did not use the included projector screen but the whiteboard in my classroom so it may not be fair to comment on the quality. I would have adjusted the picture settings to make it as bright as possible. There was slight blurriness when the keystone correction was used (typical of most budget models) but it focuses perfectly otherwise.
Sound: In my experience, projectors generally do not have good enough sound loudness or quality for classroom use. This Projector is likewise barely audible. An external speaker is strongly recommended.
Connectivity: I had no problems connecting this projector to Wifi on either the 2.4 or 5 GHz bands. I was able to easily connect it wirelessly to my old Sony Vaio (running Windows 10). The Bluetooth also connected easily to my Bluetooth speaker but there was a noticeable lag in playback as shown in the video.

I recently bought this mini projector, here’s what I think.
What I liked about the projector:
Firstly the imagine quality was really good as the colours are very vibrant and the contrast ratio makes for deep black and bright whites. Secondly, setting up the projector was a breeze as the instructions manual was very clear. Lastly it’s very lightweight and compact size while still being very powerful.
What I dislike:
The only downside about this projector is that the built in speakers could be a little bit better.
Comprarlo fue la mejor decisión, se ve súper genial en la oscuridad y en la luz se ve bastante claro como pars darte la oportunidad de ver lo que estas proyectando, honestamente se los recomiendo, llega super bien en su cajita, trae su control, pilas y una manta blanca que puedes colgar y trae los ganchitos para que lo hagas en caso de así decidirlo
