Artlii Energon 2 Projector UHD 4K Projector
First of all I must admit the Artlii Energon 2 Projector UHD 4K Projector is slightly bigger than I originally thought. It isn’t huge but does come in the following dimensions: L24cm W31cm 11D. However this is were I am very pleased with the carry case that comes supplied because now I don’t have to keep packing everything up back into its original box, I can quite literally just throw it all into the bag quick and easily. A genuine time saver if you are like me and not planning to have the projector in a permanent, fixed position. The design of the projector is very nice and looks quite futuristic. I particularly like the back where you find all the connection inputs and outputs, as well as a manual wheel for adjusting the keystone by up to 15 degrees.
The inputs and outputs are as follows: 1xVGA, 2xHDMI 1xUSB output, 1 xUSB input, 1xAV 1×3.5mm jack for headphones and a micro SD card reader.

In regards to its build, it is just plastic but does feel fairly solid. The lens however is glass for superior picture quality. On the top you will find the focus wheel as well as some very cool touch control buttons which illuminate blue when they are pressed. Very nice! This also gives you the op[tion to control what you see via the projector if you ever cant quickly find the remote!
The features that this projector can offer are quite outstanding for the price. The picture quality alone is of a very high quality. Its fantastic to be honest, far the best Ive seen so far. Not only is it clear but it is also extremely bright too. Colours come though very deep (thanks to the projector being able to provide up to 17 million colour ranges) and you can see every detail with sharp clarity. It really is stunning! The native resolution is 1080p but if you do have something in 4K resolution then the projector easily handles that as well. (Just to confirm it doesn’t project in 4K but can handle the resolution/file information of 4K footage with no lag or delay).
As for the sound, it does go very loud. You really could set up a mini cinema if you have the space because no matter where you sat the sound would be easily heard. So far I only have it set around 20 out of 100 and even that is loud enough for me and my family. You will also be glad to know that it is decent sound quality too but if you do wish to connect your own speakers you can do this via the built in Bluetooth connection options. Yep it does have Bluetooth connectivity!

My favourite feature however with this projector (and the main reason I got it) is for the casting options. With my previous set up my phone would have to be connected via cable every time I wanted to show something or I’d have to connect my PS3 up and then go into the TV services option to access Amazons Prime Video or Youtube. Now that is no longer an issue, you quite simply connect via the Airplay or Miracast options and then whatever is on your phone comes though on the projector. Please note that some paid per view apps will not work via casting as they do not allow it to be done. Especially Apple/IOS as I can stream Netflix to the projector via my android device but with my Iphone, Apple don’t allow it.
You can have a screen size up to the maximum of 300 inches however our spare room is only small and with this being a “Long throw” projector we can only mange a size of around 110 inches. However if you have a large garden and plan to use this for some late night movie viewing then you should easily be able to get the screen to its maximum size and even though the projector would need to be around 8 metres away in order to achieve this, you should still be able to hear everything thanks to the previously mentioned volume that this projector supplies!
Overall, I am extremely made up with the Artlii Energon 2 Projector UHD 4K Projector. Not only does it look cool but its features, connection options and of course most importantly the picture quality is truly fantastic. It even has a little push button foot pad underneath which allows you to adjust the height of the image, plus you can remove two filters in order to clean and free up from any dust. The menu system is easy to use with plenty of manual settings for you to play around with or adjust as you see fit and it all comes in a fairly sized, stylish looking case.
So you are looking for a Full HD projector then I would definitely recommend this. Whether it be for casual movie nights like myself or perhaps creating your own cinema room, then with the quality that this projector provides, you wont be disappointed.
