The manufacturer claims 400 lumens, but in our testing we measured 240 lumens (it's common for the claimed brightness and the measured result to be different). The AAXA P300 was the brightest of the projectors we tested.

It has the inputs you need, plus a speaker, a tripod mount, and a remote control, and an optional battery is available. With both movies and presentations, the AAXA P300 pico projector stood out from the competition, providing a very bright image from a short throw distance. The AAXA P300 is very bright with a good selection of inputs, and it can sit closer to the wall than other models. When possible we made the image size the same, although with variable throw distances-and no zoom to make up for this fact-such an adjustment was often impossible due to space issues. Using an HDMI splitter, we could view the same content on two projectors side by side, an arrangement that allowed us to notice differences in brightness, color, image size, and overall quality more easily. We also tested with lights on and lights off, as a pico projector is more likely to be used with the lights on than a traditional projector. Subjectively, we watched Blu-ray content and presentations (the latter using a MacBook as the source).

We took objective measurements using SpectraCal's CalMAN software with a DVDO AVLab TPG test-pattern generator, an i1Pro 2 spectrophotometer, and a Klein K10-A colorimeter. We evaluated each projector in the test group both objectively and subjectively. Our tested models (clockwise from upper left): Brookstone Pocket Projector, LG PH300, Asus S1, AAXA P300, and ZTE Spro 2. Overall, a pico projector won't replace a TV or a full-size projector, but it will work well for occasional use. If you have a projector but it's too large to easily carry around, one of our alternate picks might make the most sense.
If you own a pico projector but it isn't bright enough or isn't battery-powered, upgrading to our pick makes sense.
#HD PICO PROJECTOR 2015 MOVIE#
If you need to be able to show something to a group of people-or to host an impromptu movie night inside-a pico projector makes displaying content on a wall, anywhere, easy. The AAXA P300 is small, making it easy to display content on a wall anywhere. Other models might be more portable, but they won't be as useful as the AAXA P300. Plus, it has better contrast ratios, more inputs than other models, and an optional battery for use on the go. It's bright enough for both dark rooms and those with some light, and it's easier to position for a large image than its competitors. Īfter 45 hours of research and hands-on testing with five models, we found the best pico projector is the AAXA P300.
