 This is the Artly Play. It's an LED projector based on Android TV Smart OS 9.0. This is the first time I'm reviewing a projector of this type. Now most of my previous projector reviews have been based on lamp or laser projectors. Generally those types of projectors have lower lifespans. This is very compact as you can see from the design. Even then it has a lifespan of 70,000 hours which is amazing. Natively it is 720p but it can scale up to 1080 and 4k which is perfectly supported. So I will be testing this by playing some 4k content for you guys. Now it is an Android based projector so some of the key features it does have Google Assistant built into it. It also has Chromecast built into it so you can wirelessly stream from your Android phones but it also has 2.4 and 5 gigahertz Wi-Fi capability so you can wirelessly stream from your iOS devices as well. So I will be testing that out with my iPhone 12 Pro. One other thing I really like about this is that it has inbuilt Bluetooth and capabilities of connecting to a soundbar. I will set this up with my Bluetooth soundbar in my room so I will give you guys an audio test in addition to the video quality test as well to see how good this is. And now the contrast ratio is 6000 to 1 which is really great and one thing I need to see in the projectors that I buy is that the quality of the dark shadows, the blacks and the vibrancy in the colors I really look out to see if they're worth buying the projector for. This comes in at 270 pounds on Amazon. They do some offers and discounts from time to time so make sure you check out the latest pricing information by hitting the link in the description below. Before we go ahead and set this up let's unbox this see what's inside and let's get straight into it. You can see how compact this is. I really like the fact that it comes with this nice little strap so let's see what else is in the accessories box. You've got yourself the plug, you have a HDMI to HDMI cable, you have the remote control, you have the audio video cable inputs and then you have yourself the user guide and warranty card. Right so on the back you have two HDMI ports, two USB ports, a headphone port if you wanted to connect your headphones and listen directly from that, the AV input, the power button and the power plug there. Along the top you have yourself the menu directional buttons, the ok button, menu button and a back button and this is where you can actually control the focus. Now this has 4D keystone correction so you can do plus and minus 45 degree angles. You have a speaker there on the left hand side so I'm going to go ahead set this up in my bedroom where I have the projector screen, test out some of the features connected to my laptop and to my iPhone 12 Pro using wireless capabilities in this, check out some of the smart OS features for the Android TV, play some apps and let's go ahead and see how it performs. Alright guys so I've just set up my project there on the little tripod stand, it's going to come down there from the ceiling behind me. Now you can set this up to a maximum of 6.8 meters away from your projection screen which should give you around 200 inches of viewing experience. So mine is actually 4 meters away and my screen is about 120 inch so it should fill that up almost fully. So let's go ahead and put this down. Now I'm going to play a few things from the Android TV app and I'm also going to connect it to my MacBook Pro and lastly I'm going to connect it to my iPhone 12 Pro using the wireless streaming capability on this device. So let's go ahead, I'm going to turn all of the lights off, step to the side and let's see how it performs in terms of the video quality and also the audio quality. Alright guys so now I've gone through the setup, the Wi-Fi is also connected so you can download more apps from here on the Google Play Store. Obviously the most common ones, I've got Prime Video, Netflix, YouTube and I've also just added Disney Plus. If you want to add more apps then you just go to the end, go to add, you've got HBO Max, Hulu, plenty of different options here. So all of the main ones that you obviously would like to use, you can do that but most likely if you want to connect to a HDMI source like a Amazon Fire Stick or an Apple TV you can also do that and access all of your apps from there. I can also connect my MacBook Pro using HDMI or just wirelessly stream my iPhone or even your Android devices. Let's check out what is in the settings. Keystone correction, so this is the 4D keystone correction that I always like to do. So on the actual device itself you can now change this to whatever you like to make sure it's positioned correctly. Zero and zero is absolutely fine for me because I've actually got this mounted on a tripod that allows me to move in any direction. You can also zoom in, you can change the projection mode whether you want it on a tripod or mounted on a ceiling. Sound settings, you can adjust the volume from here, change the date and time and various other settings to update the firmware and reset the device. So all the common things that you would expect and actually to be honest the clarity in the screen especially in the blacks I think is actually very good compared to all of the lamp based projectors that I've had in the past. This one is super clear even with the lights off those lamp projectors I can still see some type of washed out shading in the blacks and the shadows which is not great. So if I go back here I can also go into the apps spotlight then I can go into all of the main apps from here and download more from the google play store. Now let's go ahead and play a sample video to test out what the quality is like but also check to see what the audio is like coming directly from the actual speaker inside the android tv projector. Alright guys so the quality on that for me was so good and obviously you guys can't appreciate unless you're here in person looking at the screen and you can only judge by what you see on the screen you're watching this video on but I promise you this is the clearest and highest quality projection I've seen of any projector I've purchased in the past. Now the next test I want to do is just connect it using HDMI to my MacBook Pro and just give you a sample video using that. So now my MacBook Pro is connected let me just make sure I can set the sound output to the projector like so and let's go ahead and play another sample video. Again I thought the quality was great and it's just so quick and easy the response rate is super fast as you can see I can cycle between all of my windows very quickly and very easily. Minimal lag and the last test I want to do is now connect this to my iPhone 12 Pro using the wireless streaming capability. Okay so to connect my iPhone I downloaded this app called Airscreen from the Google Play Store you simply open it up hit on start select again and it will load up the device name which is AS Projector LED as you can see on the top left. On my iPhone 12 Pro I need to go into the screen mirroring option and that same device name will appear I select it and it will start to play on the projector. There we go so now you can see I can use Apple Airplay so I'm cycling through I can go on and I can play anything from here so let's say for example YouTube let's go ahead on my videos. Hey what's up guys this is the VenQ WIT and this is the world's first e-reading lamp let's take a close look at the design. So the first thing you'll notice straight away is that this has a nice curved design so this is like a smiley face it's a very smiley and happy design which I think looks great and it's quite unique there's two ways to control this you have this turn button there at the top and you have the metal ring that you can touch so let's look at these two in more details now. Alright so let's talk about the color temperature first. Alright guys thanks for watching hopefully you found that very useful of course the audio and video quality is probably not going to be the same as what you're hearing it through your screens if you're watching it on your phone or your laptop or your computer it's a lot different to seeing it in real life when I'm here in person watching it but I have to say it's the best projector I've had the quality is so good and even the clear blacks and the deep shadows the colors the vibrancy it's really good for a projector of this size and just the fact that it's compact and you can take it easily anywhere you'd like because it has that little carry handle with it it's just so good and it's worth that price.
