Sony MP-CD1 - Pros & Cons

automatic keystone correction works best to give you a level image
LG has better small projectors for similar price
the entire set up was quite brilliant
matte black finish of the projector's body feels great
it was firm enough to stay in place once set
The build quality is excellent
The image output is crisp
colours are produced adequately well
the auto keystone correction works just as advertised
to daisy chain the projector to any speaker and instantly improve its audio

The project sits off to the side
the projector has a fan built into it to dissipate heat
CD1 is not going to replace your large screen television or high end projector
nothing not the projector to adjust the height and incline
it s not easy playing stuff from a phone
small device gets cluttered and a bit cumbersome
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue
pretty faces and handsome presenters
the speakers on the projector was also deemed to be insignificant
Sony did not include a USB power adapter in the box
a small slider to manually set the focus
lack of a kickstand and internal speaker seem
projector definitely would not be a good replacement for a TV screen or monitor
projector just was not powerful enough to produce a crisp image
the projector takes in a 1080p feed
ASUS projector was not truly portable
lack of pixels is actually a wise way to max-out its brightness
not designed for watching movies
mini beamers lacked the key feature any projector needs
it does not come with Bluetooth
no wireless capability at all
Netflix and the text was a bit blurry to read
subtitles tend to be a bit blurry
taking a lot of room or being heavy
this slider could drastically change the focus of the image
couldn t had added Bluetooth to it
Sony MP-CD1 was the audio connection
quality was middling and dull on the MP-CD1
Sony MP-CD1 is not an all-in-one media player
Sony MP-CD1 has going for it
lack of a volume rocker is bizarre
pico projectors suffer from this

Sony MP-CD1 Review - A Mobile Projector that fits in your pocket! - The Tech Revolutionist

When Sony first introduced the MP-CD1 Mobile Projector, I was skeptical about its performance because of its size.

Sony MP-CD1 Mobile Projector review: Pocket-sized and powerful

4.0

The Sony MP-CD1 Mobile Projector is surprisingly powerful given its pocket-friendly design. It's the sort of product you might not realize you need in your life until you've experienced it firsthand.
