    5.0 out of 5 stars Great for a motorhome ! Great for anywhere really, 17 Dec 2008
    By A. Foster (Greater Manchester) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Optoma PK101 Pico Projector (Electronics)
    I bought one for my husband to use in the motorhome, its so dark in there and you can project it of the blinds its just great. Its easy to use, just wish they had supplied a ipod cable, luckly we had one. For us it worked straight out of the box without any problems or issues with focus wheels etc. It was simple to use really and the quality is great - pixels are not a issue.

    We are using it for ipod movies, dvds, tv and also for presentations. It really is very good my only negative point is the speaker but you know for the size of it what do you expect. Just use headphones or a battery operated speaker I use my logitech ipod dock/speakers and it works great. It comes with a handy attachment to use a mini tripod which is a must and also a lovelly little leather case to keep it safe when not in use. LOVE IT!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant in so many ways apart from the one that really matters., 7 Dec 2008
    By Mr. Stephen A. Collins (Stansted, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Optoma PK101 Pico Projector (Electronics)
    Optoma PK101 Pico Projector

    When I first heard about the arrival of pocket projectors I was very excited as I travel a great deal and much as I love my iPhone, there is no substitute for size when it comes a true cinema experience.

    Not having seen a demo I bought blind but my expectations had been managed by several on-line reviews so I had some idea of what to expect.

    Firstly the size, not much larger than a deck of playing cards which is amazing considering that it can project images up to 60 inches (which it genuinely can). The unit is attractive to look at but would have been even better with a metal housing.

    Controls are limited to a very difficult to adjust focus control which is a bit all or nothing and a two stage brightness control. Sadly there is no volume control and the internal speaker always sounds stretched which is not surprising given how small it must be. I ended up using headphones which was much more satisfactory.

    Now to the picture. The projector is best used in total darkness, anything less than this requires that you significantly reduce the projection size down to a few inches. The picture quality initially impresses but you soon come to realise that the projector simply does not have enough power and as a result the picture is quite dark. It will project up to the stated 60 inch size but I found it was happiest at around 32 to 40 inches. Colours are strong, perhaps too much so particularly reds in my experience, matters improved slightly however when using the less powerful of the two settings setting which resulted in more natural skin tones.

    The unit comes with two batteries which take around 4 hours each to charge via the included USB lead and mains plug. Be warned however that it only comes supplied with a component lead so there is no out of the box iPod connectivity unles you already have cables of your own.

    With great regret I am returning my unit. I think that this is a brilliant first try but the poor focus control, low quality sound and above all else, the rather gloomy picture let it down. I suspect that we will not have to wait too long for advances in the technology that will address the issues that I have experienced so perhaps best not to be an early adopter this time.

    Please note that my review is based only upon iPhone connectivity as I did not have the opportunity to use it with other devices.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A mobile treat, 10 Dec 2008
    By A. J. Roche "Audiojoe4444" (Berks, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This review is from: Optoma PK101 Pico Projector (Electronics)
    The thing you have to consider when you buy a Pico, is what are you going to use it for? Are you going to show off videos on the move? Are you going to use it ad-hoc to watch movies? Or are you going to replace your TV with it? If you are planning to replace your TV, then you'd be well advised to avoid this product. If you want to use it for the purpose for which it was designed, then you're in luck.

    The Pico is a handy, lightweight device that has impressed an initially skeptical me. Whilst there are some minor niggles: sound too low, battery life, you have to remind yourself that this isn't meant to replace the HDTV in your front room. If you want to use it on the fly, then it's the perfect gadget for you.
