Should you buy a $15 Projector?? | Brookstone Keychain Projector Review

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 พ.ย. 2017
- So I came across this projector in a Brookstone store in a mall one day while it was on sale for $15. You read that right its FIFTEEN DOLLARS. Its cheaper than lunch at a fancy restaurant that is. It was on clearance and I couldn't resist to pick it up and give it a try. So was it worth it? Can you use it for a second monitor for your windows or mac PC? Or is it actually a viable solution for a cheapo Netflix and video projector? Watch to find out!
Looks like Brookstone really was discontinuing it though as its no longer on their website now...
EVERYONE THAT ASKS FOR A LINK READ THE DESCRIPTION AND WATCH THE VIDEO. ITS FROM A STORE AND IT WAS ON SALE HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO GIVE A LINK.

You could have easily provided a link to the product! What a shitty review!
Why make the title appear as if it's available and not just available but for $15?? Clickbaiting people looking for reviews is scummy dude....
You could at least provide the barcode. Then people can use it to find the product at a retailer of there choosing.
lol yeah idiots dont know how to read discriptions or even search online for a alternative that is as cheap as this one
O!Technology Don't have to be a dick about it.
Slap a Raspberry pi, powerbank, and a keyboard and you got a computer on the go. Get a game controller, and install Retro Pi and you got yourself a portable retro game console. Great video

Howw a raspberry pi

Joaquin Dayrit or just buy a Bluetooth controller and use your phone...
I'd use a raspberry pi over my Chrome cast. Because I'd set up as a android tv.
euan todd great idea actually
You complain about the pixels being too big but you have the tiny thing hella far away from the wall. You should really treat it like a short throw projector and don't put it so far from the wall to make a larger screen area then review it as having a "problem with bad pictures cause the pixels are too big" I give your review a 3/10
Yeah I reviewed your review you're welcome :)
Ayy it's better than i expected! It has battery too which is handy! The 240p resolution is a bit of a turn off, but for $15 that's not bad.
This is a good video! Make more of these cheap gadget videos for poor people like me!
Haha yea! For $15 I can't complain, I can still watch videos on this. Thanks Dar I'll see what else lmao.
Darren Asmoro I think the next one up has higher res
At least it’s not 140p
lol it has been 2 months

4:37 to see it on
Could you connect this with the aux cord to a mobile phone?
Would you happen to know if you're able to continuously run it off the charging cable?
A good use for this is art projects and holiday light shows. The relatively cheap cost and fidelity in such a small package allows the projector to be versatile and you could easily buy a whole bunch of these to do different effects or visuals. Definitely a cool gadget!
I wanna project something that's about an arm's length away or less from the wall. Will it still be a larger screen and able to focus?
Can i used it with my smartphone?
Is it good for using as a mural template for airbrushing on let's say side of a can?
Best review I've seen, you are a natural kid
From where to buy this item for $ 15.00 ?
For the love of God .....
U took forever to give the demo
Oh my goodness ...
Just stop this conversation people ...
Angelo and breeze .
Can both of you stop this conversation ?
I just said " god " ....
What is wrong with that ..?
And please don't use abusive language ...
Angelo Calderon god doesnt exist
Lovely Cannibal yes he does...he just dont believe in you
@@jesseburroughs271 God doesn't exist
for this little device can we charge and use it the same time ?
What if you bought like 9 of these and aligned them up so its 1 screen?
How big is the projection on the wall? Like 1 foot by 1 foot?
Aren't there any smaller projectors available and affordable for general public? I need one for attaching it to an Vector mini robot. The size of an 18650 would be nice..
Wow....i didn't know they made projectors that small. I want one just for the sake of it. ....thanks for sharing
Would anyone know the name? of the cord I would need for this projector to connect to my Android phone?
The only Brookstone left in Idaho went out of business a couple years ago, i doubt that store will be around for much longer
What's the best budget projector, please?
Ayyy this vid got 95k views!!! Congratz
If you get a dual female hdmi adapter you can hook up a casting stick( Chromecast etc) to it .
Looked a lot better than I expected
My first computer was a Tandy TRS-80. I'm not complaining about that resolution. Especially for the price, size, and convenience.
So, this could be useful when traveling, I would imagine. Especially, if you got kids..in the car, on a plane, a train, a bus..whatever. Being that it's $15 you won't be heartbroken if it gets lost, stolen or broken vs your $800 cell phone or laptop etc. So, there's that! Thank you 4 sharing!
Wait a year and watch the next generation blow your socks off!!!
I think you placed the projector kinda far from the wall, but it's really a nice thing to do to show its capabilities, like holy sheep that's small! I still appreciate your review, and if I'm not broke anymore, I'll buy this.
hi i have one for some time now and I finally i desided to turn it on and i charged it for hours and it dosen't work..... it just dosen't....... btw my grammar is bad so sr for that
Can you use it with smart phone?
Hey bro , what is the smallest ratio we can get ?
Wow. This is not a bad deal. I got myself a 240p projector, but it was $40
I tested a full-sized projector before, but they are not that great. The fan get's louder and louder over the years, and it heats the room up like a plasma tv.
I am thinking about modding a projector to use a LED instead of the bulb, but it is not as easy as it looks on the surface.
Lo
the reason the fan gets louder is probably because you got some really cheap projector that doesn't even have a fan filter, and replacing the bulb with an LED won't be easy as the LED will certainly not be bright enough.
Leberkas Semmel ein Deutscher!!! Servus😂
Da würdest du aber ganz schön beschissen, schau dir mal den „Vivibright gp80“ an, kostet 60€ und unterstützt Full HD.... hab den und der is echt gut für den preis
I looked online, and I could not find it. Any help on finding one?
I may buy one to look at video I've just shot with my DSLR. When I don't have my computer handy.
Sir how could I buy this small projector
Where can I buy this?
Where to purchase this projecter

Buying links?
Great review.
Thanks !!!
Thank you!
Would you want to sell yours?
I'm looking to buy one just for an experiment for something I'm working on, but I found one on ebay for $37 plus $7 shipping.
I'm Canadian so that would be about $58 😳 hardly the $15 I would prefer to spend.
And if my experiment works then I may need to buy them in bulk.
Hi bro can i buy this projector online,pls send a link.thx
which song is that bro?
What's name of tune 4:58?
Does it work with a phone
Met malem bang mau nanya itu projector yg kecil belum bs blutoot yaa
It is AMAZING for 15 dollars, I had one but gave it to a friend. Been looking for another for a year, once in a while one pops up on youtube for 30 bucks, and i just got one. I am looking for more. A projector on your keychain, how amazing is that? It is not to give you a 100 inch screen, it is designed to give you a 3 foot screen in a dark room, or a 12 inch screen if you are sitting by the wall. The nearest pocketable projector will cost you 100 bucks
For that price that is impressive, I wasn't sure it'd even turn on
That, a phone and a Bluetooth controller and u can game and camp at the same time, progesterone onto the side of the tent. Should probably bring a portable battery charger also
The only downside is you cannot use BlueTooth of WiFi. Because it's keychain model, you want use it to show videos from your smartphone. A separate HDMI cable is not very handy idea. You still need big thing to play videos, so the purpose of "portable" is little gone here. Unless you have good mobile HDMI player on battery power. No wireless playback possible.
Not sure if chromecast will work, because you need seperate USB power from powerpack.
Where can i buy
Should've shown some video playing through it if that's what you said it does best.
Micro USB is not Mini USB they are 2 separate types it even says it on the projector
How parchess
Where to buy?
Hi I am from Brazil and last month I watched your vídeo when I was in the USA and decided to bought from Amazon. I have The Lightning HDMI adapter for my IPhone 7 but I can not Watch The videos. Can you help me? Thanks and kisses from Rio de Janeiro.
Pls can you send me the link ?
Looks cool. But awesome vid bro!
Whats the brand amd.model?
product merely seems so so, but the information and presentation from the video creator seems good. probably wont buy this product, but would definitely watch another review from thia guy.
intro music?
I need that how I get
A mini HDMI cable alone cost me $50 a few yrs ago!
Use it as an advance ghost light, you need a looping video! 👍
Which store?
I'd use it for retro gaming and have a battery pack ri extend its life.
If I can get this to work with my phone and download vids that hold up well at low resolution I think it's totally worth it
"A box with some drawings"
(Shows a box that clearly has photographs on it)
I bought it but how do I connect it to my iphone?
+iX Relaxx you need an adapter
Do you know what adapter I need to use with my Samsung 4.?thank you
The intro song is Ship Wrek - Vessel
Link for buy please ! :)
That would be awesome for tracing art work on canvas
man I thought it has lcd 4k projector mini , with bose speakers heheh
Move it closer to the wall it will show brighter and sharper
Is he in a storage locker?
But, can it run Doom?
I recommend a Sony mp-cl1a projector
give me purchase link
This would be great in use with halloween decorations
checked ebay could not find any $15 piece
Jon Doe not eBay check on brookstones
It looks like it could be fun for movies but useless for pretty much anything else. And the screen on which it's being projected will affect the image. Since it's so cheap, it would be great for kids who want to watch TV or movies projected onto the wall.
A regular 100 watt light bulb is 1600 lumens.
So 100 lumens will ONLY work in a very dark room.
This is 15 lumens.
But i had one, for 30 bucks it is a fun toy. Sadly there is no place to buy them now.
For 15$. It impresses me.
Not half bad for $15
Great review, showcased the product very well, but I think in means to improve the quality of your vids maybe dont talk for so long about the details. I understood what you meant but it became repetitive (?) . Cool video though Id hella buy this projector
Msdj Jdndn Agree. The video is almost 8min long and then only example of picture quality was about a minute long from a static PC screen. How is it with movies? games? Delay/ lag? Etc...

Thanks for the feedback guys! I'll try to do better next time i do another review.
