About this deal

With images projected at a whopping 150-inch in 1840 ANSI Lumens in 4K Laser Ultra HD quality, your friends and family's eyes will stay glued to the screen. Cosmos Laser makes you feel like you're in your own private theater with 1080p laser brightness projected at a supersized 150-inch , while Dolby Audio mesmerizes your ears with true 3D audio. Improve on noise from the Fan from Astro, this gets loud mostly due to the heat but the built-in speakers null the sound.

Astro doesn't integrate quadrilateral keystone correction or horizontal keystone correction, which is not a problem if Astro is placed on a leveled surface. The late 1800s saw the invention of the overhead projector and the Zoopraxiscope and Panopticon - two of the first movie projectors ever made - all of which use a basic lamp projection system that consists of lenses and a light source. Love this feature, as kids always came and wanted to check the projector light on my previous Nebula mini projector capsule, and bright light does affect eyes. hours of battery life, you can watch a quick movie or record multiple episodes of your favorite TV show, no matter where you are. Of course, once you get into the apps, that depends on the developer, but most are pretty easy to navigate as well.

interface, regular options on language, date/time, keypad tone - disable the “knock” sound while navigating / button presses, Automatic sleep interval - default at 15 min, device goes to sleep / standby, clean cache, screen mirroring from iOS (Airplay) and Android options, about (give complete know-how about the hardware/software), upgrade availability, accounts (google account registered on Astro) and google(shows details about your account). I prefer Nebula Connect app over remote, simple convenience however for kids, they use the remote, they like it better. It is also missing an official blessing from Netflix, so Netflix content only streams at a low resolution as well. With eye guard tech, the projection stops while Astro remains ON and audio continues to play, and as soon as kids or obstacle moves away, the projection starts. Picture was tested from a distance of about a metre, giving about a 30 ins picture, to 3 metres giving about 100 ins picture, and in the dark room it looked fine at either size.

Unfortunately, like the other Nebula projectors, the Astro isn’t “officially” certified by Google, so Google Play Services are not present on the Android 7. ANSI Lumens is really low, increase the brightness level to 200 ANSI lumens, helpful for projection during the day. I do like the remote control on the phone app but it takes some getting used to, but easy enough to navigate and you don’t have to worry about forgetting the remote. When using the apps, you’ll need to open the companion Nebula app on your phone to engage “mouse mode” which simulates touch input for the Netflix app.Connect wirelessly from your smart device with Bluetooth, stream over Wi-Fi, or connect via HDMI or USB. With up to 4 hours of battery life, you can watch a quick movie or catch multiple episodes of your favourite TV show. Projector Setting: This has options on the Image Mode mostly focused on battery usage and brightness. You can download and use the apps directly through the Astro to view copyrighted content from these providers (Chromecast is not supported). These are handy and good settings if the Astro needs to be mounted / placed at elevation or ceiling mounted, has vertical, Horizontal and quadrilateral keystone corrections.

Enabling Parental Controls also creates kind of 2 profiles – one for kids, and other for parents / regular user. Control the Astro remotely from your smart device with the Nebula Connect app (available on iOS and Android). With parental control enabled, if the settings gear icon is chosen, then the Parental control page opens, prompting for the password / pin, and upon successful pin, allows access to the Control section for items discussed above. This is because the packaging branding doesn't have a children theme at all, which would help consolidate Astro's identity as a children's projector. Credit subject to status, UK residents only, British Telecommunications Public Limited Company acts as a broker and offers finance from PayPal Credit.Image looks good and crisp, needs a bit of focus adjustment (via the adjustment knob near the projection lens). Remote has controls for Power On/Off, switch to HDMI, Mouse Mode, Navigation, Home, Back, Options, and Volume +/-. PayPal Credit and PayPal Pay in 3 are trading names of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH. The focus of the image is adjusted manually by twisting the lens in and out via a wheel dial that works similarly to an old school overhead projector. On a Full Charge, I was able to project for a total time of 2 hr 25min (1st test) , 2 hr 32min (2nd Test).

Protect your parent-only movies and apps with a password so your children don't accidentally stumble upon something they shouldn't. With the small stylish design, simple features, and eye-guard protection, it’s a great way to make watching media even more enjoyable for the whole family. While Astro powers ON, there is colorful dancing Nebula logo (more for kids), followed by bright Nebula sign (in red). The World is Your Cinema:Transform any location, from your bedroom to your backyard and beyond, into your own personal movie theater thanks to Astro’s pocket-sized design. Though the Nebula Astro Portable Projector is an all-in-one solution with specs that can’t be sniffed at.

Remote Dark Black Bar, is slightly bigger compared to what I had from Capsule and Prizm, design has been made for kids’ convenience, my kids liked the controls. The software sometimes lags and the remote becomes unresponsive, though that may be due to limited processing on the Astro.
