450 ANSI Lumens For those curious.
I have this. This is a great price.

What is good about it is that the specs aren't exaggerated like so many cheap LED projectors on Amazon. It is objectively brighter than two Amazon projectors I've tried that cost over $100 and claimed 700 ANSI lumen. Colors are also reasonably accurate and the image it produces will look good and sharp. I've projected it at up to 120 inches and it is solid.

The big downsides for me are that it doesn't have any optical or digital zoom, and the keystone adjustment is extremely minimal. What this means is that if you are projecting onto a screen, your placement options are very limited, as the projector has to be a set distance from the screen and also above/below the screen. It also doesn't help that the power cable is super short, but you can use a PC power supply cable that is longer if needed. Not a huge deal, but it can be annoying. Lastly, it did get a few small dust spots over time that I wasn't able to get rid of, but this is common with any cheap LED projector and not a deal breaker.

For this price, if this is your first foray into projectors, you will not be disappointed at all. The image quality and brightness that this is capable of is way better than other cheap LED projectors I've tried.

Something I've learned - when buying cheap LED projectors, check the wattage. This unit uses around 150 watts and comes with a separate brick power supply. I've tried two other cheap LED projectors from Amazon that claimed higher lumen counts and both used 75 watts and neither had an external power supply. This one is far brighter than those, so I think there's something to this.
Depends on your space/storage availability. First try anything that is white and flat. An untextured white wall works surprisingly well. If you have a good wall and are content with the image, stop there.

If you plan to buy a nicer projector down the line and have a dedicated space, I really like my Elite Screens Manual B pull-down screen. It has a slight gain surface, so it helps brighten the image, and the material is solid, so light doesn't pass through it. Downside is you need a place to hang it or store it and they're rigid and very long (if you get a large enough size).

If you use a cheap cloth screen mounted on a frame and it's too close to a wall, light can pass through it and bounce back, making the image look fuzzy. However, if your space allows enough space between the cloth screen and the wall (such as projecting outdoors) this issue is mitigated and they can look good. This can be a good option if you have minimal storage space, but a good pull-down screen will definitely look better.

Thanks ..I received mine and yes keystone is negligible . I was not expecting much from a 35-40 $ but it is not bad. Yes the position of projector is restrictive and somehow for me the bottom is not aligning with projector bottom . It's like mostly in center of the rectangle it makes on wall/ screen . Not sure what setting it needs .

Did anyone said it has Bluetooth..I did not found any setting for that
I don't think this has Bluetooth or Casting. Interesting choice since most budget projectors have those features... that said, they usually suck and aren't smooth. So the omission here is not a big deal to me, but it does make this less appealing as a dedicated entertainment display.

I did ordered twice once at 42$ and once at 35$ with plan of returning the 42$. Now I have two with pros and cons of each

1st order -42$ is year 2023 ( qc passed sticker and SN info ) unit with better sound and thinner adapter for charging , the screen although is blurry at one side and I was able to make both side clear with every possible adjustment

Order 2 - 35$ is a 2022 unit with not so good sound and thicker adapter. Screen although is better and clearer at both right and left sides .

I am inclined to return the order 1 because of screen but not sure because of sound.

Any one knows if there are any difference between the years, I am not able to find anywhere online or even RCA product listing or anywhere ?

BTW I feel this is good enough projector and at this price it will suffice most of casual viewing at home in dark settings.

Are these fictitious $50 Epsons in the room with you right now?

If there's a listing for a functional, low-hours 1080P projector that does at least 800 ANSI lumens and starts at $50, I guarantee you aren't winning the bid on it.
Bought this for $50 a month or so ago for an indoor golf simulator. Low hours, works great.

I wish people weren't so damn skeptical of others on this site.

WXGA isn't 1080P.

It's 1280x800, which is basically 720P.
