@@roncamp2148 I believe it was stated in the specs part of the video maybe - 150" if my memory suits me? I'm sure there's an official number somewhere.
Man, what an amazing piece of kit! Seriously man, you are on fire with these finds and really living up to the channel's mission. Keep up the great work!
*goes to Amazon and adds it to my wish list* - waving to you from Virginia, well since your last video, I got a promotion to Supervisor at my new job so now I can afford these items lol 😆 keep the ideas and items coming, much love to you and Happy Halloween 🎃
Im so happy I found your channel, insane production value in every video *Mind-blowing* also your communication skills are immaculate. I rarely subscribe to/watch these kinds of review channels but man you've got me hooked. Your attention to every detail is worth pointing out. I was surprised you linked to the German Amazon listing, which was really nice since I live in Denmark and that means I won't have troubles with import taxing really appreciate it- keep up the good work
Welcome to the channel! Greetings from Toronto! I'm also happy you've found the channel and are enjoying the content. Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a nice comment and supporting!
Paul Hibbert did a video on this projector too -- You can actually replace the BenQ Android TV stick with a FireTV one if you want, and use that instead.
Does anybody know how it compares to Xiaomi Mi Smart Compact Projector? Benq definitely wins in terms of looks, but I don't see any other differences between these two & Xiaomi is significantly cheaper.
Can you make some more videos on mood lighting, potentially with less RGB. I’m moving to a new place in the next couple of months and planning everything related to automation and mood lighting. Love the videos
Hi Jamie, Thanks for watching! There's a ton on the channel and more to come, most of the RGB stuff can also do the regular white or soft white hues as well if that's more your style!
Great. Was going to ask about the weight. Looks like the star projector. Does it have bluetooth to connect to external bluetooth speaker? Bought the monster Fluance fi90 bluetooth speaker. Its amazing.
You can connect with your Bluetooth speaker via an aux cable for sure. As for if it outputs Bluetooth that a good question, one I don't know off the top of my head, I feel like I remember reading somewhere that it might, but don't quote me!
I can see myself projecting gameplay from one of my modded Arcade 1up cabinets such as Marvel vs Capcom onto the wall or ceiling during one of my Friday night Fight-cade at the Retrocade! Hmmm
I was thinking about purchasing this. However, for the room I would have it in I would have to have it positioned on an angle. From what I can see, it only has a vertical Keystone? It doesn't have a horizontal Keystone?
Its a nice projector and beautifully designed but I cant see who the target audience would be at that price. I could see this being great for teens and young adults to bring with them to parties or a friends house or maybe used for boring business presentations but with a 720p resolution, I don't know why an average adult would want this. This thing needs to be $150-$199 to even be within the price range of the people who would actually use this.
There are cheaper projectors I've done in the price range mentioned however they lack a lot of the portable features and efficiency this brings to the table. I would say an "average adult" would still be hard pressed to tell the difference in resolution between this and a 1080p projector.
@@TheBigBentley911 Thanks General! You can definitely get a great budget projector with the 1080p your looking for if you don't care about the built in smart features, battery or portability aspects.
amzn.to/3vXgbCU - If your willing to go up in price range BenQ also makes the GS50 It's got the 1080 res, albiet the design of the GV30 is much more versatile and costs less!

Nice! Congrats on the promotion, thanks for your continued support of the channel!
Another well detailed and comprehensive video review, keep up the awesome work 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE thank you so so much!! And you definitely have my support!!
We've come a long way from the old school $5-10k projectors, this machine is pretty wild.
2021 and we now have pocket sized movie theatres!
That's funny, glancing at the thumbnail my exact thought was that this was that star projector.
hahah yea! It's a pretty clever design, putting out another video shortly where I use it as a star projector!

Can we bring this out with a portable power bank ?
Hell yeah! I've been waiting for weeks a new video. FSC Rules
Hey Paul! Hopefully I can start pumping them out more frequently again! I appreciate your enthusiasm and support of the channel.
@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE I know the hard work that exist behind of every video, I will be supporting the channel every day, Keep going mate. Cheers!⚡
@@superzack_ Thanks Paul, always inspiring having folks like yourself take the time to spread some positivity and encouragement. Much appreciated.
Hi! How is this projector for not so dark rooms? Like maybe a classroom? Also, how's the sound for videos? Thanks!
It's quite dim in even somewhat lit rooms.
its quite dim 😅 but the clarity still helps but im still figuring out how to make it less dim
Would this make a good golf simulator?
does it need to be stood facing the wall dead on in the centre?
or can you have it off to the side still facing and it will correct itself?
Question? Can you plug in a firestick which is loaded with apps?
Yes
Paul Hibbert did a video on this projector too -- You can actually replace the BenQ Android TV stick with a FireTV one if you want, and use that instead.
Thank you for this you touched on all of my questions. Also gave me some extras. Much appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
Does anybody know how it compares to Xiaomi Mi Smart Compact Projector? Benq definitely wins in terms of looks, but I don't see any other differences between these two & Xiaomi is significantly cheaper.
Xiomi mi smart 2 just came out. But I don't see it at amazon yet. It has some new features.
Can I swap out the Android for fire stick?
Assuming it fits in the slot! Then yes! It's just another HDMI input
Fantastic review ... You nailed it man
Does it have horizontal keystone?
any audio synch issues? any lags?
Not that I saw!

Love the videos

@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE I’ve watched it all so far. Have tons of notes. But any more on mood inspiration would be greT
Ikea lights are my favourite to be honest, I like that you can adjust the hue of white
Great. Was going to ask about the weight. Looks like the star projector. Does it have bluetooth to connect to external bluetooth speaker? Bought the monster Fluance fi90 bluetooth speaker. Its amazing.
You can connect with your Bluetooth speaker via an aux cable for sure. As for if it outputs Bluetooth that a good question, one I don't know off the top of my head, I feel like I remember reading somewhere that it might, but don't quote me!
Would it stay stable on a bed?
Hi there how's the fan noise? Can you compare it to another projector if possible thanks!!
the fan noise is nowhere to be heard ❤ trust me i just bought this product but what’s annoying me is idk how to make it more bright at daytime
the background where it projects must be white or it can be a black wall ? Thanks a lot
Need a white wall or surface for ideal projection
do you get tv channels listing ? ie main tv bbc etc
I can see myself projecting gameplay from one of my modded Arcade 1up cabinets such as Marvel vs Capcom onto the wall or ceiling during one of my Friday night Fight-cade at the Retrocade! Hmmm
Modded arcade cabinets with this sounds awesome! Thanks for watching!
I really like the idea of being able to use this as a star ceiling; the example in the video, is that a clip or movie?
I just released a video using this as a star projector here: th-cam.com/video/n5rXFlaYoqg/w-d-xo.html - They are all just youtube videos I streamed.
@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE Thank you!
I don’t care about the cost. I’ve been looking for something like this for such a long time!!
It's got a really versatile design for sure!
I was thinking about purchasing this. However, for the room I would have it in I would have to have it positioned on an angle. From what I can see, it only has a vertical Keystone? It doesn't have a horizontal Keystone?
Unfortunately only vertical keystone!
I believe this one may be more suited to your needs - has both vertical and horizontal keystone: amzn.to/3qk7voq
@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE thank you so much! ☺️
could you give a link for that exact tripod please?
The exact tripod I used is here: amzn.to/3L8fduI - Probably overkill for just a projector. I use it for my photo work in the field.
Is this the 720p version?
yes gv30 is 720p while gv11 is 480p
Can I connect this to a Bluetooth speaker?
Yea, but mind you, it itself is also a bluetooth speaker!
I have to say XGIMI Halo+ and MoGo Pro+'s built-in batteries fit more for portable projectors.
It has a built in battery. Watch the video
You didn’t show us that it cast an IPhone. Screen mirroring and casting is two different things. If i cast from my iPhone i can still use my phone
You can still use your screen if casting from computer.
Bro you really helped me here thank you so much
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching and supporting
What If I used on a curved wall ?
Its a nice projector and beautifully designed but I cant see who the target audience would be at that price. I could see this being great for teens and young adults to bring with them to parties or a friends house or maybe used for boring business presentations but with a 720p resolution, I don't know why an average adult would want this.

@@FUTURESPACECOLLECTIVE Ok. I'll take a look on your channel for some of your other projector videos. Love your content by the way.
@@TheBigBentley911 Thanks General! You can definitely get a great budget projector with the 1080p your looking for if you don't care about the built in smart features, battery or portability aspects.
Amazing!
Thanks!
The most important aspect of any projector is image quality, and yet the review hardly metions it.
What it means is that it is a dim projector.
find it weird that the dungo go into the device like an M.2 SSD drive LOL
Pretty clever design actually! The HDMI port and power hookup is inside the projector, just like it's built in!
Only 720p resolution noway for that price. Their is better ones
They have 1080p portable projector - GS50
amzn.to/3vXgbCU - If your willing to go up in price range BenQ also makes the GS50 It's got the 1080 res, albiet the design of the GV30 is much more versatile and costs less!
Hi guys, my GV30 upgraded to Android 10.
Very cool! Any new noticeable features?
Only 300 ANSI Lumens? For that price? NO WAY!!!!
great
Thanks for watching!
720p? NAH!
ماشاء الله
Could we use it with external battery plugged in usb-c port ? Thanks
Yes, I believe so!
