3M Pocket Projector (3M MPro160)

I loved trying the 3M MP160 Pocket Projector... because it does the job it is supposed to do. The 3M MPro 160 is literally small enough to fit in your pocket (though not very comfortably) and will easily fit into most laptop bags and brief cases. Like all projectors of any size, the 3M Pocket Projector MPro160 has its limitations. If you give presentations on the road to small groups, this projector can make your life easier.

Easy to use. Works great. Only downfall is the Tripod that comes with it is not very sturdy. The one I bought (the Sunpack SPK620786 is even worse. The projector is great. I thought the resolution might be to blurry, but for the price and the size of the projector is great. I've got my friends buying them.

I often bring employees and coworkers into my office to view presentations or demonstrate items. However, it's not optimal to have three or four people hovering around a computer monitor. I thought the 3M pocket projector would be the solution to my problems. I was only 1/2 right. Lets start with the pros: - the projector is incredibly easy to set up and comes with a standard vga/video cable out of the box. - the rechargeable battery lasts up to two hours making the projector a decent portable solution - the image quality is decent and can be projected to a fairly large size in the right lighting - This thing is cheap. Look at the price! Amazon's price was $150 less than our office equipment supplier's this brings me to the cons; - the projector is not any good unless you can dim the lights. the lights from my office are controlled by a switch for the rest of the floor. I can't turn down the lights and this projector is not nearly bright enough to combat normal overhead fluorescent lighting. - the image quality is inconsistent at the edges. you can get the center of the image in good focus but the quality suffers around the outside edge. - the included tripod is not flexible and does not allow for effective positioning of the projector. I find i'm better off propping it up on some books Overall I can say I'm looking forward to the next generation of this product because the current one falls a little short.

Amazingly small and convenient. Easy to carry anywhere. Good image definition according to its size, though you really need a dark room and speakers to amplify sound. I am happy to have it, sure you will too.

The projector I purchased never worked. I thought i was doing something wrong when I connected it to my Mac, but sure enough after calling 3M, the woman there told me she had never heard of such an issue and that the unit I had was broken. So, I bought a defective product to bring to Ghana for a two month trip of workshops and presentations and I DOES NOT WORK. This is why I give the product such a low rating.

Cannot find cables for this projector. There were no instructions, etc with the projector.

Size is great, set up is non-existent (just plug it in.) I was worried that it might not be bright enough, but I was able to use in my classroom without even closing the blinds (although it was even better with them closed. Resolution is much better than I anticipated; I used it in a large room and projected on an entire wall without losing quality. If you want to plug in to your phone you will need one more adapter.

Excellent projector for portable use, plug it into an iPhone, use the video player app, and watch your own movies, or show them to others
