This review is on the HAPPRUN Projector, Native 1080P Full HD Bluetooth ProjectorI’ll start off by saying the included screen is pretty basic, essentially a white sheet with grommets for putting it up. Still nice to have but don’t base your purchase on that being included.This projector blew away my expectations. I’m comparing this to my Optoma projector and it’s closer in picture quality than what I’d expect. While it doesn’t have the same 23,000:1 contrast ratio my Optima has, the HAPPRUN provides decent blacks at 10,000:1. Just be aware that the brightness is not adjustable so you do need a darker environment. More information on the bulb life would be helpful although not sure it matters too much.This HAPPRUN projector is able to provide a 40-200 inch projection with a distance from projector to screen between 6.8-16.4 feet which is slick. I’ve maxed out at about 120″. The 1920 x 1080 picture from the HAPPRUN doesn’t focus super sharp yet definitely sharp enough for gaming or movies. Focusing may require you to move the projector a little forward and backward to find the ideal distance though but not uncommon even with the best projectors.As far as the sounds goes. You shouldn’t expect this unit to be able to match the sound a typical home theater setup (receiver, 7.1 speakers etc.) can produce. You’ll likely want to play sound from a receiver or amplifier as the internal speakers don’t provide great sound clarity or volume. That said, it’s definitely good enough for the kids having a movie night or playing video games.At under 6 pounds this unit is very portable making it easy to bring to your next event. If you’re looking for a basic projector, you can’t go wrong by considering this HAPPRUN projector. Very impressive functionality.

A very good projector
The image quality is really good and it supports HDR (I played some youtube HDR videos). It’s super portable and easy to set up with the guide. I tested it on the biggest wall in my house and it looked great. The stand makes it really flexible so I can point it in almost any direction and still get a nice picture.

Based on value, it’s a winner… but…
If this wasn’t such a great value (it was only $59.99 when I ordered it), I’d pick apart some of the liberties the seller takes with their advertising. But, sticking to what you actually get for the bucks, you get a nice, portable projector, with sound, 1/4″ 20 screw connection, 100″ screen, HDMI cable and decent enough instructions. It’s really just plug and play. Be sure to select the HDMI in the settings, if that’s what you’re using.As for quality, it’s a basic projector, but looks well constructed. There is no zoom feature on the projector, you just move it towards the screen or further away. The keystone adjustment works well, just for up and down, not left and right. Focus is easily adjustable, manually. It sounds like mono, not stereo, but it’s clear and the volume is great. I have other projectors and none of them have audio on board. As for the lumens claimed, I seriously doubt it’s 9,500, but it’s bright enough to see the picture during the day with blinds mostly closed. Nighttime viewing is great. The screen provided is poor and diffuses any light creating a major haze. In my video, note that I have the screen folded in half and taut, creating a nice, flat roughly 68″ surface (far from the 200″ claimed). If I didn’t try this projector on other surfaces, I would’ve blamed the fuzziness on the projector and the review would’ve been a slamfest. You’ll see in one of my pictures that I just hang a white sheet, which offered a far better viewing experience than the provided screen. Fortunately sheets are cheap.So, a decent projector with sound, for under sixty bucks, I’d say not too shabby.

I love this projector. It’s compact, functional, and very easy to carry. The picture quality is excellent the brightness is impressive and the HD resolution looks great. It’s definitely worth the money. The packaging and design are well done, and the remote control is very convenient with direct access to Netflix and YouTube. Overall, a great purchase.

For a projector that’s priced below 100, I must admit, not only am I very surprised, I’m impressed. It’s bright, very bright in comparison with some other projectors within the same price range and even higher. I have a couple of other projectors, both priced above 250, and this one is definitely brighter and clearer. To me, this stood out right after I turned it on for the first time.I have mine set up in the basement. I gave it a good distance from the main wall, and I’m getting a very large, bright, and crisp screen. Very happy with the video quality. FPS handling is decent, too. I have yet to see any choppy videos. Of course, it also depends on your video source.This projector is Android-based, which comes with its pros and cons. But the pro is that you get to install certain apps, but with some restrictions. Connections and installation of speakers, etc. is also super easy.The projector has built-in wifi and Bluetooth. This is excellent for wireless connections, be it your Bluetooth speakers or your wifi network. It supports Bluetooth 5.2 and wifi 6. Of course, your devices need to be able to support those protocols too, but if they do, you can enjoy faster connectivity and lower delay. In my case, I have this set up in my basement. Wifi reception is fine, but since I have a fast wired connection there, I’m just hard-wired for a better, more reliable connection. So, now, another nice feature is the built-in Ethernet port.My only partial issue is the Bluetooth. When connected to my Bluetooth surround system, there’s a noticeable delay of about 0.2 seconds. It definitely throws me off when watching movies, but you can always delay the video by 0.2 or whatever is necessary to sync audio and video. Especially if. You’re using other apps or your own media centre, so this shouldn’t be an issue.So this projector has an interesting auto-focusing feature too, which, on startup, will automatically try to calibrate and focus the lens. I noticed this auto feature comes on anytime the projector detects some sort of movement, too. The feature is okay, but it may not be super accurate, but that’s fine. There’s a physical knob on the device and a couple of buttons on the remote that let you directly control the lens focus, and I find them very helpful.It comes with an AI auto adjustment too. It didn’t work well for me. But I’m fine with that too. You still have access to the manual settings, which let you easily adjust the screen’s aspect ratio.Input/output-wise, interestingly enough, it comes with a pair of decent speakers. They’re not going to win any awards, but if you don’t have any speakers handy, these will get the job done. You also get a headphone jack if you need one. There are two HDMI input ports, two USB ports, and an Ethernet port. USB ports are useful if you have your photos or videos on a USB drive, and they give you a convenient way to access and view your content. HDMI ports are great options for connecting to your external video sources.But what’s nice about this projector is that it’s a smart projector. So technically, if all you care about is watching Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and other similar streaming services, you are good to go, and you probably won’t even need to use any of those ports. And if you use a Bluetooth sound system and wifi for your internet, then the only cable you’d need is the power cable!Overall, this is a great find. For just shy of $100, you get a smart projector packed with essential features like Bluetooth, wifi, etc. and one with clear and very bright images, you can’t go wrong. Highly recommended.

I think this is a fantastic budget smart projector. Is it perfect? By no means. But for the price, I think it’s easily worth it.It comes with:1080p resolution1500 ANSIWifi 6/EthernetMultiple HDMI/USB portsAuto focus functionalityFor the price? That seems really good for a budget projector. For that alone, I would recommend.It’s super easy to set up. Plug it in, turn it on and point it at a wall. If you’re not mounting the projector, you will probably need to tuck something underneath it to elevate the angle of the projection.At 1500 ANSI, I think the picture is nice and bright. The auto focus function is also really cool. As soon as you move the projector, it re-adjusts itself automatically. Although I will suggest you go into the settings to manually perfect everything (keystone correction for example), to get the perfect fit for you. But what the auto focus achieves on it’s own is really cool.It comes with Whale OS instead of something better like Google TV, which is kind of a disappointment, but not a deal killer. Especially since no one is making you use the built-in smart features. Plug in your own media player via the HDMI ports and just use this to project.I would actually recommend it, to be honest. While the OS is perfectly usable and comes with all your favourite streaming apps, the UI feels a bit sluggish when navigating with the remote. It did playback 1080p content without issue though.The built in speakers are not that great. Definitely usable, but I noticed at low volume, it would cut in/out. At higher volume it sounded fine. Maybe a bit tinny. I recommend connecting your own soundbar or something.I don’t want to keep reiterating the same thing, but yeah this is actually pretty solid for a budget projector at this price range. Most people would be more than happy with it. It definitely exceeded my expectations.I know this will get used for backyard movie nights for sure.
