  • 1GB RAM
  • 3.5mm Headphone jack
  • WiFi 802.11b/g/n
  • Bluetooth 2.0

  • Full size USB 2.0 port
  • Micro-USB port for data syncing/charging
  • DC port for charging
  • Focus ring for different distances
  • 1/4” jack for mounting on tripods and accessories
  • Small optical trackpad on the top for easy navigation

In the box you get:

  • Silicon rubber bumper
  • device (mini android projector)
  • user manual
  • mini metal tripod
  • charging brick with DC output and international plug adapter
  • USB to micro-usb cable (3ft standard)

I love this mini projector because it is just so AMAZING! It has a 1/4” jack for mounting on my tripods so that I can watch YouTube videos, movies and games without holding the device so that my arms do not tired. Another thing about this mini projector is that it runs full Android, yeah it’s KitKat but it’s better than nothing. So you can sign-in with your Gmail account and have all your content in a HD projector for your eyes to melt into.

When I use my projector, I pro it up on my JOBY Gorilla Pod and then plug in a cheap wireless mouse so that I can navigate around the whole OS even better than the track pad and then connect a bluetooth keyboard and mouse. So when I am surfing the web and watching YouTube videos it makes the whole experience even more seamless and intuitive.

I love how the company has included a silicon bumper for the device as well just in case of any nick, bumps or scratches. The tiny form factor of the ‘cube’ like projector measures in at 2.2” high, 23/4” deep, 2.5” long. The iCODIS mini projector is so portable you can take it to parties, sleepovers, family gatherings and it weights round 1/4 pound which is less than most modern smartphones like the GS6 (Galaxy S6), iPhone 6, Moto X, LG G Flex2 etc…

It has a micro USB port which means that data transfers even more welcome as it also supports USB-OTG which makes those movies from your computer even easier to transfer. But don’t stress if you don’t have enough storage then you can use up to a 32GB micro SD card for all your movies and pictures. I love this mini projector, and I think that it is an awesome product for any #TeamAndroid fans should have as another external media consumption device. It can make those movies night extra special with this little device.

There are two things which I would like to change on this device, which would be support for FULL HD projector and also one of the latest versions of android like Lollipop or Marshmallow. Who knows though as this is an Android device you will be able to root it or it could get an OTA (Over The Air) update which could upgrade the OS.

Overall, I think that this product is amazing, and if you have the money I think you should buy one.
