Description

With the Optoma Photon Go, you can watch movies and series everywhere. Thanks to the compact design and the built-in battery, you can bring the projector with you everywhere. That way, you can watch a movie up to 1.5 hours cordlessly without a socket. Thanks to the ultra short throw lens, you can project a large image from a short distance. The RGB triple laser ensures bright colors and a sharp image. That way, you can enjoy an impressive viewing experience. With Google TV and Google Assistant, you can stream your content directly and control the projector with your voice. That way, you can navigate easily through the apps and quickly choose what you want to watch.

The throw ratio indicates how far away you have to place a projector from the screen for a certain width. With the Optoma Photon Go, the throw ratio is 0.18:1. This means that you have to place the projector 0.18m from the screen for a 1m width. For a 2m width, you have to place the projector 0.36m. Check if there's enough space to place the projector at the right distance.

Image distortion

Lightful
Not easy to use

The screen must be extra flat, otherwise the image will be blurry and distorted. Even with an expensive and sturdy screen, there is still image distortion at the edges of the image because the edges of the screen curl slightly.

After much hesitation, I am certainly satisfied with the cho

Very good image quality despite it not being 4K
Small and inconspicuous
Even very close to the wall the image is very large
Navigation system can be a bit slow at times

I hesitated for a long time about buying this device. But I certainly don't regret my choice. The images are very sharp and the colors are beautiful. Although this projector isn't 4K, I can hardly imagine the image being any better. Ideal for a cinematic effect at home.

Highly recommended, especially considering the significant price difference with comparable short-throw projectors.

However, there should be some clearance around it (don't place it directly against a soundbar, for example, leave 5 or 10 cm between them), otherwise it can overheat and trip.
