you will review fengmi smart lite dlp 3d projector too.

[@jayceooi]

Unlikely. Both of them are basically the same in term of hardware.

[@NARUdaARC]

Hi Jayce, I enjoyed your projector reviews, now I'm seriously considering this Mi Smart Compact Projector. But lately there is this advertisement for "Lumos Projector" which had been popping up quite frequently in facebook. I think it's either a Malaysian / Singapore company claiming it's the best projector in its price range. But I don't quite trust it's shady youtuber / celebrities endorsements (seems fake or well paid). Do you mind testing out this projector?

[@jayceooi]

Thanks. 😄 Forget about LUMOS AURO, it is basically AKEY6. Even my favourite budget VP6 wins over it @ kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIbWkGWEnLmqg9k And Mi Projector is better than VP6 @ kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3K5i3uEd9mej7c Please buy Mi Projector at Shopee MY with this link if possible TQ @ shp.ee/4uiugny

I'm very impressed. VP6 projects around 85 inches from 2,7 meters. But Mi Smart Compact projects around 100 inches from the same distance. Also it's compatible with 24hz and HDR. I think it's really worth it to pay the higher price for this one. Too many advantages. Thank you very much for the review!

[@jayceooi]

You are most welcome. 😊

[@CanalDojogames]

That is amazing so i can project more with less distance. I found it as an issue nowadays with vp6..i cant project well 90inchs because it will be on an spot where people pass by my room. I had to project between 50 and 65 inchs only..the good is: i can use even on daylights with this "lower" size.. Having in count that vp6 and mi smart can project around 200inchs them 50inch is tiny..

[@luizcoutinho8953]

Hi Jayce! First of all, thanks for you in depth review, the best in KZbin!! I have 2 questions: 1) What are the differeces bettween "Mi Smart Compact Projector" and "Mi Smart Projector 2"? (Is it only the Horizontal Keystone, or ther are other features?) 2) The problem with the focus after 30min, is solved with this "version 2"?

[@jayceooi]

1. Keystone yes. 2 has smaller 0.23" DMD vs 0.33" DMD on 1. 2. I don't think so.

[@luizcoutinho8953]

​@@jayceooi Thanks for the reply! I will buy from your link to help you! 1) The smaller the DMD the better? 2) This difference in DMD is noticeable for an avarage consumer? 3) I read some reviews saying that the problem with the focus after 30 min, is not happening with the "Youth 2" version. Do you think it is a hardware fault that is happening with ALL the version? Or it is only hapenning with the "Global Versions"?

[@jayceooi]

1. No, bigger is always better. 2. Not really unless you look very carefully. 3. Youth 2 is having the issue too. Same hardware - plastic lens.

[@deykadiaz8590]

Hey Jayce, I have been using the mi projector (version 1) global with the certified Netflix. I get the HD symbol when choosing a movie (in Netflix faq HD means it is either 720 or 1080 movie) I also get the 5.1 symbol that means it has the 5.1 sound available. But I don't get the HDR symbol as I get on the same movie watching on my smartphone or TV, nor the Dolby Atmos symbol. Witch means the Netflix app is not recognizing that the mi Smart projector supports HDR10 and dolby sound.

[@jayceooi]

Mi Projector is a SDR projector. HDR support is basically decoding only = HDR to SDR mapping. It performs better on SDR. No Atmos symbol is correct as it does not support it. FYI, HD = 1080p. 5.1 = Dolby Digital 5.1.

[@user-fe5de6pc6d]

here are some cons and bugs: you cant change things like picture mode / quality aswell as sound settings on the fly. you have to go back to the options menu which causes the running app to close. on hdmi on the other hand it is possible. i found a bug on hdmi mode.. if you turn off system sounds (menu pop-klick sound) you no longer can change the sound mode no matter what (off, cinema, music , custom) > the slider moves but nothing changes untill you turn system sounds back on again. :)

Hi! I've stumbled upon your channel from your very informative router reviews, and since I trust your judgement, may I ask, what do you think I should get? The Xiaomi AX1800 or the ASUS RT-AX56U, The Xiaomi is 65$, and the ASUS 130$, yet they're both WiFi 6, is the extra price tag worth it? What do you think?

[@jayceooi]

Never try this Xiaomi model, can't comment. Sorry.. For better firmware support, I always go for Asus.

[@Alex-jk2qy]

@@jayceooi I see, would you say having better firmware is a good thing? I've heard people can flash routers with OpenWRT and such

Did you notice any problem with autofocus if longer playing (longer then 30-40min)? A read reviews that becouse over heating of lens system the projector loose focus and you have to corect it manual.

Didn't notice much on small screen. Just tested on 150" screen size. Yes, the center bottom part will out of focus after 20 minutes. Other corners are okay. Re-focus fixed it.

Hola. Estoy dudando entre comprarme este proyector o el T6 max. Lo que no me gusta es que no tenga ajuste trapezoidal horizontal. Mi duda es la siguiente: si lo pongo en un trípode a un lado de la cama se vera torcido o con inclinación? Si lo proyecto al techo desde un lado de la cama también se verá inclinado ?? Es entonces necesario ponerlo justo en frente a la pantalla donde se proyecte ? Muchas gracias

hello, you say bw-vp6 is the same as wzatco c2. but in your ranking vp6 is in second place and c3 in 4 place, with another projector in the middle. my question is, being equal shouldn't they be next to each other? or the fact that the c2 fan is noisier makes it jump further down the ranking. thank you so much. greetings

Yes, C2 noise level makes it drops to 4th. M20 should be on 2nd if the noise level is good.

Hello Jayce! My phone (Samsung S21 Ultra) is not even detecting the projector for screen mirroring? Any alternatives to allow screen mirroring?

[@jayceooi]

Weird... Chromecast should work fine. Just go to Play Store and find screen mirroring app then.

[@rockybukus]

Very confusing. How many versions are there for this model? Very important question - must the projector be exactly in the centre of the wall/screen to project the image nicely or can it adjust the image nicely even if it is higher/lower or at the left/right of the exact centre of the wall/screen? I read on Mi's site that it is not able to do angle projection. Not sure if angle projection is relevant to my question. Thanks. Appreciate your response as I'm keen on this Mi projector.

[@jayceooi]

2 models so far. First version has both China and global firmware. 2nd version is China firmware only. First version supports vertical keystone adjustment only. Second version supports 4 ways. As usual, direct projection gives the best image quality.

[@LeonardPutra]

The only problem that I have with this projector is the focusing issue. When the projector is warmed up, it will out of focus over time. It is because the lens mechanism is plastic, and it is slightly warped when the projector gets warm. I think Xiaomi can fix it on another update by offsetting the focus, in-line with measured internal temps. other than that, it's perfect for the money, the only Android projector with built in official Netflix support AFAIK.

[@Jeredos]

Can it be solved by changing the focus to manual mode?

[@LeonardPutra]

@@Jeredos Nope, but with some fiddling with internal files, you can alter the default fan curve, so the fan will go faster (and louder), thus keeping the internal temperatures & the lens stay in the same temperature for longer.

Just received my projector yesterday! I love it so far, but I was wondering if you know the ideal height it should be projecting from to a wall, in order for it to be perfect? Right now its a bit skewed, and it auto adjusts, so there is like a "border" around the picture.. Also, do you know what the best software is to stream movies straight from my PC to the projector? Thanks!

[@jayceooi]

Glad to know that. Any height will do but do project it directly at 90 degree. So you will see the border. Personally, I am using Kodi.
