Samsung SP-P300ME pocket projector just arrived

Samsung_p300 We've just got hold of the first Samsung SP-P300ME Pocket Imager sample.

UPDATE: You can now read our full review of the Samsung SP-P300ME

Measuring in a just 127 x 100 x 50mm (w x d x h), it's incredibly compact.

Instead of using a bulb as with standard projectors, the SP-P300ME uses an LED lamp to project images.

The 800 x 600 resolution and 25 lumens don't compare well to more cumbersome projectors, but it still allows for a display up to 63in - just make sure you pull the blinds down first.

It will run off the mains or an internal battery (max 2.5hrs) and comes complete with its own carry case.

We're testing it right now and will report back with our findings.

Comments

So, what did you find out?

Are these pocket/palm sized projectors worth the money?

how good is the image?

Have you got any images or video of the projector in use?

Cheers!

It needs a fairly dark room due to the low power of the LEDs.

Image quality is certainly good enough for presentations. However, if you want to watch films on it you'll find it struggles, particularly in low-light scenes.
