A warning flashed on the screen about 20 seconds before the projector turned off. Its battery life in eco mode is 4 hours of battery. The AAXA P6X is powered by premium 30,000 Hour Osram LEDs - more than 6x the average life-span of lamp based projectors. Two caveats here, though: When running on battery power, the P4-X's brightness is limited to 55 lumens. The P6X Pico Projector is almost 6 TIMES BRIGHTER than the Viewsonic M1 and the LG CineBeamPH550 Independent ANSI Lumen Testing done by Projector Central.

The built-in battery lasted almost exactly 90 minutes, which should be more than enough to get you through a presentation. Not only do you not need a notebook for the P4-X, you don't need a power cord, either. Worse, the fan was so loud as to drown out any audio coming from the P4X's 1-watt speaker. Oddly, when the projector was connected to our notebook and we returned to the Home menu, we could see a ghostlike image of the desktop in the background on the wall.Īfter 15 minutes, the top of the projector measured 112 degrees Fahrenheit near the lens. Unlike the ViewSonic W200, the P4-X lacks an anti-keystone feature, so you'll have to ensure that the projector remains level with whatever surface onto which you project.

Even after switching between the three color profiles (Cool, Medium and Warm) and fussing with the settings, skin tones were reddish, and the Bosphorous looked overly blue in the trailer for "Taken 2." Still, for a pico projector, we were generally pleased with how movies and our desktop looked. At that distance, the P4-X projected a 44-inch image, compared with 49 inches for the C120 and 78 inches for the W200.įor the most part, colors seemed oversaturated.

Too bad it's so damn loud, and not the most user-friendly thing. Using our AEMC lightmeter, we measured an average of 89 lux from six feet away, which is just below the C120 (94 lux) and the W200 (98 lux). Short version: A powerful little device, significantly brighter than others of its size, with decent battery life and a good picture.

That puts it more on a par, brightness-wise, with the Acer C120 (100 lumens), rather than the W200 (200 lumens).
