AKASO Mini Projector, Pocket-Sized DLP Portable Projector, 1080P Cookie Projector , Support HDMI WiFi Built-in Rechargeable Battery Stereo Speakers and Remote Control Movie Projector - Updated Type-C

Excellent! Works fine!

I got this projector specifically for cookie decorating, and honestly—it’s been a total game-changer. The image it projects is crisp and clear, which makes tracing even tiny lettering and delicate designs surprisingly easy. I used to dread those ultra-detailed requests from clients, but now? Bring on the fine lines and script fonts! The setup was super intuitive, even for someone who isn’t exactly tech-savvy. I connected it to my phone via AirPlay in minutes, and the included tripod and remote make working hands-free a breeze. No more stopping mid-piping to adjust a dial or wrestle with cords. What I really appreciate is how portable and rechargeable it is. I can move around my workspace without searching for outlets, and the battery life lasts through multiple decorating sessions. Plus, it’s compact enough to store neatly when not in use—doesn’t hog counter space like some bigger models. If cookie decorating is part of your business or just a sweet hobby, this projector is worth the investment. It’s like having a precision assistant right there with you, helping make every cookie flawless.

I have mixed feelings about this. Turning it on is a bit tricky - the toggle switch doesn’t stay on the projector option. I’m not sure if it’s designed that way or if my unit might be faulty. The focus roller is quite small and can be a bit difficult to adjust, especially when trying to get the right focus for smaller pictures. That said, in terms of performance, it’s working well so far. The picture clarity is good too—fingers crossed it stays that way.

Update, Do to my review a long time ago the seller sent me a replacement to make it right. Thank you. However and while very grateful sending me another without me asking, I’m afraid the exact same model will still fare the same results. I like the projector but it just won’t work for my purposes. I am still looking for a projector that will project to the ceiling that can be focused and scaled on the projector itself. Do to the gesture I am giving the seller back to 5 stars (was 2). I now do not like this at all. Something drains the battery. Unplugged with no attachments the battery is dead in 4 days just sitting there. Connecting is not that bad after you get used to it. Connecting via HDMI is very easy. While the picture quality is fairly good I didnt buy this to watch movies. I wanted something to cast an image to the ceiling which it does not do. The projection is scued meaning 1 part wide x 10 parts long, squished not squared like a upside down “V. Next you get a bigger picture by moving your projector farther and farther away from the screen. Next the focus is real touchy, you need to adjust in very small amounts.

I've spent well over an hour trying to get the projector to recognize my wifi and pair to my phone (I tried all methods), and it's been a frustrating waste of my time. Time I won't get back. The remote control is INSANELY unresponsive with it's lag time (nowadays who has to deal with remote lag time??) And the instructions are borderline foolish. Case in point, if you own an iPhone it tells you to go to "Management" in settings to pair. THERE IS NO TAB IN AN iPHONE THAT IS "MANAGEMENT!" Seriously? I am very tech savvy and my home has a powerful mesh network. THERE IS NO REASON WHY IT SHOULD BE SO DIFFICULT TO GET THIS PROJECTOR TO WORK! UPDATE: Because of the issues that I had with the first one, I purchased a second. I really wanted to make this work. Sadly, the problems were exactly the same. I spent yet another hour+ on Apple's website and other forums to try to get this unit to pair to my phone. I have a high-quality mesh network and an iPhone 14 with the latest software. Still no success. So I tried the micro SD and USB options. As per the pathetic instructions, I used a micro card no greater than 32GB, and a USB 2.0 thumbdrive. All I wanted to do was to project simple photo album pictures, nothing complicated, just basic jpgs. Although I was able to get the AKASO projector to recognize my drives, more often than not, the unit froze up for no reason and had to be rebooted. This happened almost EVERY TIME I tried to get the unit to do basic operations. To add further insult, I found the remote control to be basically useless (on both units). I used new, fresh batteries but the remotes would "hang up." It takes several seconds, sometimes 20-30 or more, for the AKASO projector to recognize the command from the remote. Seriously? 20-30 seconds to perform the command? In 2024? And then when it does, it freezes up. Every time. For some, that might be OK, IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR BUTTON PRESS WILL DO. But because this company does not provide instructions, you have no idea what the icons on the remote are for. So you press a button and wait....and wait...and then press another button, not knowing what will happen....and then it freezes on you and you have to reboot. Couple this with the fact the you get ZERO customer support, I am done with AKASO. I can forgive problems with one unit, but not two. That's too much of a coincidence. That's a company systemic problem. I will ask for a refund and and try another, similar product on Amazon. I am confident that there are better products out there with better Customer Support.

Product shipped in great condition. Just reading through the manual and learning about it but so far projecting onto a surface the image looks sharp and crisp. Multiple ways to set up connectivity to my iPhone. Looking forward to using this projector!

Amazingggg and original 😍😍😍😍

I like the size of this projector

Belle image

This projector is compact, sleek and easy to use, good for office presentation and home use. Only connectivity was a problem and pairing often does not happen. 1star i have reserved only and only due to connectivity issue, otherwise 5 star product. After sale support from the vendor (Blumaple llp) was beyond expectations. They attended all calls and ensured that issue has been addressed and processed the refund without any if’s and but’s. Meanwhile I was going through the website and they got some really good products showcased. Looking forward to shop further. Thanks
