Projector, GooDee BL98 Native 1080P HD Video Projector 7500L, Touch Keys Home Theater Projector with 50,000 Hrs Lamp Life, Compatible with Fire TV Stick, PS4, HDMI, VGA, AV and USB

We purchased this projector with three intent that it would be a great way to have our family over for some fun quality time while still being able to observe social distancing (for those of us not in the same household).We have not been disappointed.We use this outside every weekend, and it has performed very well without issue.I also purchased a 120" screen to hang on our fence, and this projector pairs very well with it (see photos for reference).The device seems well-built, with the usual adjustments allowing for focus and keystone alignment on the lens.Connection-wise, 2 USBs, 2 HDMIs, 1/8 audio out work great. We bought a Roku stick so we can stream virtually whatever want without having to worry about connecting a Blu-ray, etc. The Roku is powered by the USBs on the back of the unit.The speakers in the projector are predictably mediocre; they were not designed to sound robust, or to fill a room with sound. However, using a 1/8 patch cable with splitter enable us to use multiple speakers placed throughout the yard for immersive sound for all viewers. Our 300w Sony Bluetooth speaker also works well when connected via wire (this projector does not have wireless audio).Image quality is actually quite stunning, given the price point, and design. This is not a $1500 home theater projector folks, but it is portable, easy to set up, and totally works for family functions.The image quality (native 1080) projected on a 120" screen looks about as I would expect. The larger screens will always benefit from a 4k image, of course, but then again, it comes down to price point.Image adjustment includes the basics; contrast, brightness, saturation, etc. The only feature I wish it had was the ability to fine tune highlights, shadows, blacks, whites, etc. This is not a deal breaker though.If you purchase this, be sure to push the power cord in firmly, making sure it is seated all the way back in the socket on the back of the machine. We thought we had a defective unit with no power upon unboxing. We realized we had not pushed the plug in hard enough to make electrical connection.Overall, we are very happy with our purchase, and would do so again.

I have been searching for a reasonably priced projector the last few months. I wanted to try to bring my neighborhood together with having gatherings each weekend at our house on our driveway (when the weather is good). Since our church building has been closed I wanted to share CHURCH with our neighbors. So we have been streaming different Pastors’ messages from many churches. It is AWESOME to feel like you can share a worship service with others. Along with that we have been enjoying movie nights with the adults in the neighborhood and also planning on having kids night.… Fun… Fun… Fun… With this pandemic happening I wanted people to still be connected with each other… but safely:) So it is…. bring your own chair, food and beverage.I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this projector. I was afraid of what I was going to receive with the low cost, but it certainly proved to be WELL WORTH my money. The sound is good… (I also have external speakers attached to drown out the 19’ inflatable screen… blower). The Picture quality is very sharp and the colors are vibrant. There are many options for adjusting to your needs. I was also pleased with how light it is and packaged nicely with it’s own carrying case. What is really cool are the on device buttons touch screen are illuminated. You have no problems adjusting your projector in the dark. It also comes with a remote control which is very convenient.I am sure there are so many more perks that I am not even educated on but I can’t tell you how much FUN we are having with this GOODEE projector. I would DEFINITELY advise you checking one out. I can see why it’s ratings are close to a 5 STAR. Start your own “party” in your neighborhood. But be SAFE!!!!

This is a really nice projector. We've exclusively used it outdoors and only a half dozen times or so. But usually for two or three movies consecutively reach time; social distancing back yard movie nights 🍿. The picture quality is clear. Friends and neighbors have commented on the clear picture quality, too. Colors are vivid for for the application. I wish the throw was longer. I need to set it up about 14' away to fill the screen with a clear picture. The built-in speakers surprised me. Not outstanding sounds quality, but loud and clear enough. Biggest issue is getting the sound out using any of my external speaker products (especially my sound bar). I got it to work the first time and never again. Which can be frustrating with riotous kids at your back ominously chanting, ready to burn you at the stake for delaying their entertainment. I've resorted to just bluetooth connecting my fire stick to the sound bar and playing the video with the projector. That's worked well enough to convince the mob lay down their pitch forks. But I'd rather use the HDMI connection, especially when playing from a video source that doesn't have bluetooth.Over all, I'm happy with the product and the value. It's taken the sting out of not being able to go to the theater and helped avoid any incidents.

So I've had this projector for around 2 weeks and I have to say I'm very impressed with the performance. I do have a couple cons to mention, but they are all reasonable trade offs considering the low price point. So, with that in mind, let's get to it.It's easy to use. Plug in your xbox, playstation, roku, Firestick or even usb flash drive, hang up your screen (I used a white sheet stretched tight on the wall.), and watch some stuff! Its reasonably bright during the day. Enough to see it. (The Spiro picture had plenty of light in the room) Obviously this is not the ideal way to view a projector. If you can get some black out curtains and shut off the lights, itll look alot better. In fact, itll look excellent. I've included some pictures in normal light and dark to illustrate. If you really want a theater like experience, hook it up to a good stereo and sweet gosh almighty its awsome!Now to the cons....You may have to play with the color, brightness, and saturation a bit. But I'm sure that has to do more with what you're plugging in. We switched between an xbox, playstation and roku and each one had it's own preferences toward settings. (Playstation was the best)My advise If you plan on switching between them is to take a picture of the settings so you know what to go back to.It could be a touch more sharp, but that's comparing it to a tv. And that's not really a fair comparison. If you're looking for a tv experience, be ready to spend a grand or two on your projector.Dark shows/movies can be alittle dark, but again remember: Price Point. It's only 250.00! Projectors range from 50 bucks all the way up to 3000.00 and honestly, I've seen much more pricey projectors look as good or even worse. And it's not so dark that you cant enjoy it, just worth mentioning.So, bottom line it's a darn good budget projector that you'll actually enjoy. I'm highly satisfied with my purchase.

I just bought the BL98 for a blow-up 20’ foot movie screen for outdoor nighttime use. Very disappointed in this projector for this particular use case.I want to be clear, it’s a decent little projector and quite good for the money. But if you have aspirations for using this as an outdoor movie projector, you might be disappointed.With that said, I don’t want to be unfair and blame it all on the projector, the particular screen you’re using has everything to do with how good your projector will ultimately look.In my case, I was using a 2-way projection screen, that is it facilitates both front and rear projection setups. These screens aren’t going to look as good as a front projection only screen that has a nice black backing behind the screen to increase brightness, color, and contrast. So if you’re going to use a large movie screen supporting both front and rear projection, the projector better be very bright and geared towards a long throw of light.In order to get a nice picture on a huge ‘20 foot blow up outdoor movie screen, you need to place the projector either behind or in front of the screen at a distance of greater than 15’. The greater the throw, the more light that’s lost at the benefit of a much larger image that fills the screen. Still, the long throw of light ends up looking dim and colors don’t look as
