For my use case, I was willing to sacrifice brightness for flexibility. This unit is quiet, has good build, great picture, easy to use. Flexible is the key word. You're going to sacrifice some brightness for portability. You have to realize if you have a more powerful bright unit. It's energy consumption is going to go way up. It's going to be loud and it's going to have noticeable hot exhaust. For me I would rather have quiet and portable over bright, because I'm never going to mount the unit and dedicate a power supply. There are plenty of ways to get a signal, HDMI in mirroring, on board apps. I tested and tried four separate units before deciding. This was the one for me. Make sure you use with at least a portable white screen. They come as cheap as 15.

The picture quality of this projector was fantastic—definitely a 10/10. Unfortunately, the software was a nightmare and completely ruined my camping night.
The unreliable Wi-Fi module was a huge disappointment. Plus, the lack of a USB-A port meant I couldn’t pre-load any movies. I ended up using my iPhone’s hotspot to stream, but the projector’s Wi-Fi kept dropping out every 10-20 minutes, even though my hotspot was working fine. I had to keep reconnecting, which drained my battery and cut into our movie time.
To make matters worse, the projector died just 15 minutes before the movie ended, leaving us to finish watching on our phones.[Movie was 1hr 40min]
Next time, I’ll go with an older projector that lets me pre-load movies on USB drive instead of relying on a flaky wireless connection. Lesson learned.
If you plan to use it at your back door and keep the power connect, I recommend it. But if you are planning to take it to camp where you have no power source available. I DO NOT recommend.

Pros:
– very lightweight and portable
– Decent sound considering the size of the unit.
– Works well with most streaming apps
– Auto keystone correction is pretty darn convenient (con on this below)
– Colors are vibrant when in a dark room
– connecting your phone to the Nebula app is a breeze. Great when you don’t have a remote handy.
– Is just as bright as the Mars 3 on eco mode (see picture – left is Mars 3, right is Capsule)
– Works decently well on overcast days. Comparison picture was taken at 3pm in December on a cloudy day.
– there’s Apple AirPlay compatibility once you download the Nebula Cast app.
– You can plug it into a power brick (65W output preferred- see con on this below)
Cons:
– Battery life is 2.5 hours on the lowest brightness possible
– Boot sequence is slow: 55 seconds in my tests from pressing the power button to actually being able to use the remote.
– Remote response is laggy. I found myself hitting the button a few times before the processor would pick up only to overshoot where I was trying to go
– Time it takes to recharge is quite long even with the supplied 65W charger
– Although the auto keystone correction is nice, it also isn’t perfect and does require some fine tuning on occasion.
– Plugging into a power brick does extend the viewing time, but not by much since it draws more power than it recharges unless if it’s high output.
Verdict: if you want to be able to stream content literally anywhere, this is the one. cartoons in the bath? Done. YouTube videos with dinner? Done. You essentially have TV anywhere where there’s a semi flat surface, a wall, and an internet connection. I’d buy it again in a heartbeat.
Edit: After owning this for several months, the lack of Netflix, overall lagging, oi and constant crashing of Disney+ warrants one star to be taken off.
