Under $250 Budget Projector Bedroom Setup! (Best Cheap 1080p Projector)

Based on the *Vdara* sign outside his lounge room window, I can see that this guy lives on the west side of Las Vegas Fwy, slightly South West of the 'Vdara Hotel & Spa' across the road, meaning he's living in the 'Panorama Towers' or 'The Martin' - Great location.. Admittedly, I'm not sure what kind of work exists in Vegas for this guy to be gainfully employed..Haha

@@WilliamMurphy-wp79 You'd be surprised at how many expensive houses with cheap stuff inside. Think about it this way, if you go high end on everything, you would never have an expensive house to begin with unless you double your income. Another way to think about it is, there are plenty of million dollar houses that have Toyota's inside their garages.

A 90 degree power cable and HDMI would allow you to push this back a little more to stop it overhanging the shelf edge. Looks very nice though still! :)

[@BarbiieTwist]

I was looking into purchasing a projector and was watching reviews to help me in making a decision. I found yours after finding one on amazon. I've had this projector since November and it's literally the best purchase ever.

[@NoteFromSELF]

The covered cord isn't centered to the headboard. That drives me nuts.

[@TechDaily]

Impossible to have it centered unfortunately =\ There’s a metal brace that holds the shelf to the wall and the only gap in it that fits a cable is off center. I’d have to grind out a hole which isn’t worth it on a $30 shelf lol

[@NoteFromSELF]

@@TechDaily I would have to have a faux piece equidistant from the existing piece. How do you sleep like that?

[@markito0317]

Not your room so it doesn't matter. ;)

[@NoteFromSELF]

You sure got me good with that one,@@markito0317. The comment option is for opinions. I gave my opinion.

[@jamiekendrew9106]

If the wall is just a plasterboarded stud wall you could drill a hole behind the shelf and feed the cable down the wall. That would hide it completely 👍

[@erreidwas]

Add a borderless projector screen... you'll see about a 25%-30% increase in picture quality. And add ambilight behind the projector screen too... and maybe one large bluetooth speaker as well.

[@cokbagus23]

why would you need an ambilight? the projector is basically like an ambilight already

[@nyan4x]

cok Bagus for bias light lol not for aesthetics

[@mikeb3407]

I’m curious to your reason why?

[@jfbarnard3109]

If you get a bedroom projector setup, you should get something that can switch to projecting on the ceiling as well

[@phobos2k2]

As far as daytime viewing, your image brightness and contrast would be drastically improved with a good screen, which would be impressive for a budget projector. It's washed out looking without it because the light is being dispersed in all directions, but I get that it's a budget thing.

[@240mains]

[@Physick1]

@JackcatteGoods LOL not even close. 800:1 contrast is garbage. As is it only allowing 4:3 aspect ratio.

[@astrotrance]

I question the need for a projector with a view like that, LOL, but looks like a great setup. A pair of small powered speakers on that shelf would definitely be a great improvement. Greetings from Summerlin.

[@joycexie1828]

I think the picture is so clear, the projector is good, and the projection screen also plays a big role

[@amank87]

What a beautiful view from windows your bedroom has! You can probably go for a budget soundbar which you can wall mount above the projector. JBL/Yamaha with built-in sub woofer.

[@TechDaily]

Definitely looking to improve the sound now. Thanks for the suggestion!

It’s interesting that you didn’t have turn your project upside down. Most projectors throw the image above the center of the lens.

[@1056944]

Awesome set up! I’ve just purchased a projector for my bedroom, however I don’t have a large blank wall due to windows and furnishings! I was thinking of getting rid of my yellow curtains and simply replacing with a light yellow pull down blind! Then placing the projector on a floating shelf like you have done above my headboard! Fingers crossed it will work and the picture quality won’t be Compromised too much! As a blind will set me back £20 and a pull down projector screen around £50

[@Dubov1933]

I would just make a drink, maybe a gin tonic or vodka cranberry and just stare out the window while listening to music for hours..

[@matt-f1c]

Get a screen or make one .. Will enhance the picture so much ... Or paint a square on the wall to reduce the ambient light reflection... great video ..

This projector is not 4,500 lumens. It's 4,500 "lux" which is a marketing gimmick to make cheaper projectors sound brighter than they are. I'd guess this is around 1,200 lumens.

Very nice! I'm pretty happy so far with the native 720p Xiaoya W5 that was an insanely cheap $68 about 2 months ago! I had a 50" 4k Vizio break on me and even though it just needs a new ~$50 power board, I'm ok with the projector. I think the double size makes up for the drop in resolution.

[@Majyk00]

I'm more amazed of your apartment view.... Must be expensive. Very nice

[@NoahChinnBooks]

I have the same projector I think (under a different brand - Vankyo V600. Also used an Ikea shelf (since the projector needs to be set dead center, the keystone is crap). Bought a 5.1 surround sound system to go with it for just $150 and added some cheap LED lighting for backlighting behind my 100" screen (which is retractable) for the full home theater experience ;)

[@chuikamchui311]

Noah JD Chinn absolutely yes, I found it in taobao (same model with groups of name) both of them must be manufactured by the same plant in China, they changed its name and sold it by different ways only

[@GuttaDaGamer]

Where did you get your screen and is it durable with no wrinkles

[@DaDavidVids]

Also you could probably get a "right angle HDMI adapter" to eliminate that bend in the cord and get the projector a bit closer to the wall

[@snerttt]

The VIEW!!! CHUCK THE PROJECTOR, JUST LOOK OUT THE WINDOW!!!

[@847MicRoss]

There are $300 name brand 2k projectors on the market. After having a projector for sometime this is what I learned. 1. Make sure it has all the ports you need and then some. My intended use for the projector has grown and i'm out of inputs. 2. Is there an audio out? On board is nice but what if you want to run surround sound or the speaker in front of you. 3. DOES IT HAVE DUST FILTER SCREENS. A projector bulb gets quite hot and has a fan for cooling. Do ever wonder how much dust gets sucked into a projector? The dust will cause the projector to over heat and shut off or it will start to cling to the bulb. Make sure it has dust filters. DO NOT AIRDUST INTO THE PROJECTOR. 4. Find out what those usb ports actually are. Power? Data? Data and power? I tried to power a bluetooth speaker that sits on my projector, but the port was data only. Another projector was usb power only. So if we plugged in a flash drive with a movie it would not show up. 5. Screen adjustment options. I didn't think this was a big deal until I needed it. If you have your projector angled down then your screen will look like a trapezoid. You can make adjustments to correct this. However if your projector is not mounted straight forward and at an angle, you have a different trapezoid to work with and not all projectors can correct a vertical trapezoid.

[@240mains]

you have a good check list . Walmart onn 1080p projector : 3 HDMI inputs . 1 USB input for video . 1 USB input to power a Roku stick . 1 headphone output 3.5 mm . 1 AV output 3.5 mm , 1 VGA input . 2 Fans and 2 air filters . High Intensity LED light , life span 46000 hours . manual Vertical keystone . Manual Focus Ring . For some reason , Brightness Contrast Color levels , all 3 settings do NOT adjust . Image is pretty good . A little blurry at the edges . For movies and video the edge blur is NOT noticed . Edge blur is seen with fine font text on a computer . Without horizontal keystone , the projector needs to be horizontally centered .
