Wow! Best thing to happen in 2020!
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Please read full review. Lot's of info!We did a lot of research and the Bomaker GC355 came out on top. What I like the best about this product are the possibilities. It provides me with all of the options that a good TV would give me, all in a portable package.What I like,HDMI cable - This was included. Which is great. Right out of the box I could start using the Bomaker!HDMI input - This is the best feature. Anything that you can hook up to an HDMI port on your TV will work here. I hooked up a game console. Worked just fine. I hooked up my Apple TV. Worked great. I found that mirroring through the Apple TV offered me more options. The Bomaker's mirroring doesn't support certain file formats that people might be looking for. For example, Youtube, Netflix, MP4. The audio did not transfer. I figured that has something to do with the Bomaker's encoders or licensing. Not a problem. Like I said, earlier, its the possibilities of this thing that I love. Hook up an Apple TV, Roku, Google Chromecast, Firestick, Laptop, etc to the Bomaker's HDMI port and you can watch just about anything.3.5 mm Headphone Jack - I hooked up some old (but good quality) computer speakers that I had laying around. I love re-purposing old equipment! The audio was great. The Bomaker does come with a speaker. the sound is just ok. But for a great movie experience, I recommend external speakers for the stereo experience. It made backyard movie night even more enjoyable.Remote - The remote controller is a good size, large buttons and easy to navigate in the dark. Easier for me to use in the dark compared to my Roku remote. Just my opinion.Lens cover - Always important to have. I'm glad the Bomaker came with one.AV cable - I have not tested this yet but I'm glad that it came with one. I have a handheld game console that outputs AV so this will be cool. The AV cable has RCA jacks (Red, Yellow and White plugs). So you can hookup older sources. For example, a VCR, Playstation 1, Playstion 2, older XBox's, etc...A note about Mirroring - I was able to mirror from my phone to the Bomaker. Pictures and MP3 music worked fine. However, If you want to mirror Netflix, Youtube, streaming etc... I have to do it through a streaming device. For example, Roku, Apple TV, laptop, etc. If you are going to use this for movie nights where you are streaming from your favorite streaming services. I recommend that you get a streaming device that you can plug directly into the HDMI port. Then you can use the Bomaker just like you would use your TV.Video quality - I thought it was just fine. I watched movies through my Roku and they looked great. I think surrounding lights will play a role here. For example, we had a fire going and that may have made the video looked washed out. The darker you can get your surrounding lighting the better.What I don't like -Nothing to report at this time.Notes-The manufacturer states that this projector is not for reading text, like PowerPoint presentations or documents. I agree. The video resolution needed for clear document reading is not going to be the same quality as your computer screen. But I got this for video game console playing, backyard movie nights and photo slide shows. So it works perfectly for that!For the price, I believe it is a good value. I have always wanted a projector. But I was always turned away by the high priced ones and skeptical of the really inexpensive ones. The Bomaker provides the quality and image for what I need it to do.I hope this was helpful.

5/5 STAR's so happy with this product!
This is EXACTLY what i was looking for! I researched and found this to have the best reviews at the best price point! When it arrived i was so happy with the quality of the projector and how bright the picture was, even in daylight! I plan on using this next to our hot tub spa outdoors. The sound was also better than expected. We set it up using an Android smartphone and it was pretty simple! If you're on the fence about it- DO IT! You wont regret this purchase.

I could not even believe the amount of quality in this projector!! I ordered one before this one, but I didn’t like it too much and ended up sending it back and therefore got this one.... I am beyond excited to use this for movie nights, family nights, or every night!!! I LOVE this thing and so does my family!!! If you are looking to find something great, look no further!! This is the one!!

FREE GIFT!!, Skip to the end of review for quick summery and learn how you get a free gift.
I bought this gift prior to Christmas 2020 and gave it to myself as a gift. I also purchased others projectors that were cheaper and had just as many quality reviews. Upon opening all the projectors it was immediately clear to me that while this projector was 40 dollars more its quality was 100 percent better quality. Its material was more rigid and actually I was surprised by the quality. Picture quality is excellent. I have only used it on a beige sheet hanging up, but the picture is still clear and the color is excellent. The down fall to the picture quality is that adjusting the brightness is either done through presets or manual and it is never quite good enough on dark scenes of movies.Sound is to be expected. This is not a stereo quality speaker system, but works well for what it is and I opt not to use a speaker attachment most movie nights anyways. If you hook this up a portable JBL speaker or other type you won't have to worry about the sound.Connecting the projector is easy for most devices. I have found that screen mirroring on iPhones, iPads, or macbooks is not user friendly. We attempted to screen mirror on all of the Apple products from DisneyPlus and found that there is some type of HDCP protection on Apple devices that require an adapter to bypass. That being said you can easily hardwire into your Apple devices. I generally screen mirror with my Android system phone with none of these issues. It will connect straight away for Android users. The directions did not require Android users to connect the projector to a wifi signal before screen mirroring ( it is required for IOS). However, android users will find that there is less interruptions in signal and picture quality when screen mirroring while the projector is also connected to a wifi signal.Overall, quality is sturdy and I was impressed, the picture is excellent, sound is good for what it is, connecting is easy for Android users (no issues), but not so user friendly for IOS users attempting to use screen mirroring. Hardwired connections work best with any system. Best part is the FREE GIFT that was in the box. You do have to send away for it (I have not got mine yet), but you can choose from a portable projector screen (my choice), a tripod for the projector, or a 5W bloothtooth speaker. Any of the free gifts makes this value just that much better.

Buen proyector
Es buen producto, tiene calidad en los materiales y tiene buena proyección de imagen. Esta muy bien que se puede conectar por wi-fi a otro dispositivo. Las letras en los subtitulo no son nítidas pero es un detalle mínimo. El control no trae baterías pero el paquete incluye cable hdmi y auxiliar RCA por si requieren. El audio es aceptable, no lo he probado aun conectándolo a otro altavoz pero no es necesario. Hay que considerar que hay que ver videos con un ambiente oscuro para tener imágenes claras. En fin, me tarde mucho en elegir una buena opción y esta no me decepcionó pero se queda en un rango aceptable, espero que me dure mucho tiempo y en verdad aproveche el producto y su precio. La entrega fue muy rápida, esperaba que tardara más pero llegó muy bien todo.

Una pena, me gustó mucho el proyector
Una pena, el proyector es muy muy bueno para que, mejor de lo que esperaba, pero a las 2 horas de uso al apagarlo y volverlo a prender apareció un punto rojo en la pantalla, algo así como pixel muerto. Y por casi 5000 pesos para mi ya es motivo de devolución...

Excelente opción
Es un muy buen artículo, se puede conectar mediante la función "Proyección inalámbrica" al celular, así que puedes mantener tu conexión a Internet y proyectar al mismo tiempo. El audio del proyector es adecuado, hay momentos en los que te olvidas que estas escuchando desde el proyector, el sonido del ventilador no es elevado, de hecho si estas utilizando el audio en el proyector, el sonido del ventilador se pierde.Es pequeño en comparación con otros dispositivos.Las orillas muestran un poco de distorsión, pero la imagen proyectada, es muy buena.
