what's happening everyone my name is Alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out the most exciting portable projector that I got to try up until now so the one that we
have here today it's called the nebula Mastery and the manufacturer calls this a long lasting
extreme outdoor projector so why do they call it an extreme outdoor projector well first of
all this is drop resistant up to half a meter so if I'll be to drop it from here on the floor
nothing should happen to it of course I'm not gonna go ahead and drop an expensive projector
but in case that happens nothing should happen to the projector this is also dust proof and
water resistant so this has an ipx3 water rating and to put that in plain English basically if it
rains on this projector nothing should happen to it so I believe that this season one of the
first projectors that has this water rating dust rating and of course drop resistance I
don't know of any other projector that has all that aside from being a projector this is also a
power bank so inside this device we have 185 watt hour battery and this device can actually charge
other devices so if you have a laptop with you if you have a smartphone if you have a drone you can
charge all those devices from the projector now on one charge you can watch for about five hours
so that's basically two movies that you can watch on one charge and once again I believe that's a
first for any projector and out there any portable projector out there so massive battery pack inside
this device as well just as a quick comparison so I also have here the capsule 3 made by the same
on Brandon anchor and on this one you get about two to two and a half hours of battery life so
basically double the battery life on this device plus you can also charge other devices from it
since we are comparing things the Mars 3 here has a brightness of a thousand ANSI lumens where the
capsule 3 here has a brightness of 300 NC lumens so you're gonna be able to use even in places
that aren't as dark could this one you do have to have a fairly dark environment but to this one you
can definitely see the image much better even in brighter environments so for example if you're on
your patio you do have some lights around you can really see that image nice and bright and
on whatever you're projecting just to give you an example I took this projector to my friend's place
um the other day and we're projecting on a wall that doesn't look that great so the
wall is kind of yellowish in color it does have a bunch of cracks on it and the image was still
impressive and super clear there not to mention that there are plenty of lights on that patio
as well so that's gonna be a big difference for the brightness when you compare this to
something like the capsule three so you can use this in more environments I'm gonna see in more
situations compared to something like this now for the size of this one the caps L3 is
still pretty amazing but when you compare it to this of course this one will be much more
exciting to watch however I find the capsule 3 does have certain advantages over the Mars
3. so the biggest Advantage has to do the size and the portability of course because
the capsule tree is so much smaller in comparison of course so much lighter so you can easily carry
the capsule 3 in a small backpack in a purse or something like that something that you're
not going to be able to do with the Mars 3. so I guess it really depends on your needs and what
you're doing where you are going because for certain situations of course the capsule tree
may be better than the Mars 3. since I have the projector on right next to me here we might as
well talk about the fan inside because like all projectors there is a fan inside that will keep
it cool so I'm gonna be quiet for a bit I'm not sure if you can actually hear the fan through my
microphone so the microphone is here and I kind of feel that my light so the light that I have
here the fan inside that is a bit louder than the fan that we have inside this projector so
I'll be quiet for a few seconds to see if you can actually hear the fan noise through my microphone
so definitely one of the quietest fans inside the projector that I got them to try up until
now so if you're behind the projector and if you're not as close as me to the projector
you're not gonna be able to hear that fan not to mention that if you have the speakers going
so inside this projector we have 40 watt speakers if you have any type of music or
a movie going on you're not gonna hear that fan over the speakers the speakers are impressively
loud so wherever you go with this projector it kind of becomes like a Boombox that's how loud
those speakers are I'm actually gonna play a little recording here even though I'm not sure
if my microphone will be able to capture the sound that well but just so you have an idea
how good the speakers inside this projector sound like so let me play that recording down
the floor
I was lost
[Music] I gotta get up to another day [Music]
[Music]
all right so let's take a closer look at the projector itself the first thing I'm gonna say
is that the attention to detail on this unit is quite impressive everything just flows with this
project really well and everything seems to be put together really well so we have a combination of
rubber plastic and metal and the way the projector is put together it doesn't make any noises when
you're carrying it doesn't rattle it doesn't shake doesn't make any noises whatsoever with a lot of
other projectors that I got to try in the past even though they are cheaper they do make a lot of
noise but that's not the case with this one at the bottom of the projector we also have some rubber
legs so the projector is not gonna slip from any desk or whatever you basically have it and you
can also adjust that front leg let's call it them on the front of the projector at the bottom there
so you can adjust the viewing angle and for wherever you have the projector placed there
is also a quarter inch screw hole at the bottom there so yes you can mount this on a tripod and
for my use I find that a tripod is the best on the sides and on the back of course we have some
holes for ventilation and for the speakers inside the projector and on the back here we also have a
light that's adjustable so you have three settings for that light so for example if you take this
camping that light will be a great addition to your camping gear let's see and as I mentioned
earlier yes you can charge other devices from the battery inside this projector so we have a
USB a and a USBC port on the back there that you can charge other devices from on the back there
we also have the charging port talking about the charging ports so Inside the Box you're gonna find
an 180 watt power adapter for the projector so this this will charge nice and fast we also have
an HDMI port there so for example if you have your computer with you or a PlayStation or something
like that you can just use that HDMI port on the back there to project whatever you have on your
computer or on gaming console or whatever you're using keep in mind that the projector itself does
run Android TV 11 so you have all the popular apps right on the projector basically because
you do have access to the Google Play Store and everything that is available in the Google Play
Store like Netflix Amazon Prime Disney and so on and of course although sports are covered by
Rubber flaps so if it does rain on this if it's dust whatever you're using this and all that is
not going to be able to go inside the projector and of course inside those ports so on the front
here this is where we kind of have the power button so if you slide this cover down I'm not
sure if you can actually see that on the camera if you slide let them cover down the projector power
Zone here we have the lens and we also have some sensors some that are used for auto focus and auto
Keystone adjustment so the projector does all that by itself there is no need for manual adjustment
but yes there is an option to adjust everything manually if you want to however I haven't found
a time when the projector didn't adjust the Keystone and the focus um automatically very
very well and also very fast so really no need for manual adjustment on this projector on the
back end at the top here we have a button so if you press this button once you can see how much
battery the device has and whenever the projector is on you can also switch mods from these buttons
you have the standard mode you have the AI mode and you also have an eco mode so of course if
you use the AI model projector will adjust the brightness by itself and the colors so it can
match the environment better but if you're like me and you're just using this standard module you
basically get to adjust the brightness manually and so on but the auto brightness is basically the
AI mode works really well on Ethan as well at the top here we also have a little joystick so you can
move left right up down you can click on it and we also have some buttons just below that so very
easy to control the projector from this buttons here without actually having to move the projector
as well because you can easily hold your hand over those buttons and you don't have to move the
projector when you're doing any changes now there is also a remote control that comes in the box of
the projector and if you've been using like a TV box that runs Android TV you're gonna be pretty
familiar with the remote control like this and of course the remote control also has a microphone
inside so you can use the Google Assistant for certain tasks and this is an example how that
Google Assistant works on the remote control so let me quickly show you how the Google Assistant
and works on this remote control so you have the microphone button on the remote control and
you have to hold that for a couple of seconds so let's do that show me the weather tomorrow
tomorrow in California there will be scattered thunderstorms with a high of 24 and a low of 17.
so very easy to use and of course you can use the Google Assistant for a variety of tasks the
native resolution on this projector is 1080P and you can project onto surfaces up to 200
inches personally I don't have any surface that big any wall any screen that big but
you get the idea there is a lot of potential with the projector like this not to mention
that the video quality that you're gonna get from that projection is quite impressive now
as I showed you earlier I did have this at some friend's house and we're projecting on
a fairly dirty wall I'm gonna say but when you're projecting on a nice white screen
the video quality is quite impressive and I want to show you a quick recording that I've done of
a video that I was projecting on a white wall in a dark room so let me play that for you oh
[Music] foreign
[Music]
system and quickly we'll open some apps will go through the settings menu and so on so let me
grab that camera and we'll record the projection on the wall from this projector so you can see
how the operating system on it and works okay so let me quickly show you how the projector works
and how the Android TV 11 works on on it so if you've had a TV box in the past that runs on
Android TV this is pretty much the same thing so you do have access to the Google Play Store
and of course from the Google Play Store you can basically install any application that you want
I'm also using the remote control just in case you're rendering and we have the projector about
250 centimeters away from the wall so that's the distance that we are projecting of course you can
install apps like Netflix and Amazon Prime so let's open on Amazon Prime just to give you an
example so you can see how fast a movie starts for example so we're going to select my name
and we're gonna start a random movie from here I actually watched this
movie the other day it's a really good movie so let's start this one quickly
so just so you get an idea how one quick a movie like this starts on it so it is very
quick pretty much the same speed that you would get on any device out there unfortunately we
cannot watch the movie because of copyright and issues so we'll exit the Amazon Prime
so exit this and let me open YouTube quickly for you once again on YouTube I'm gonna have
to watch my own channel due to copyright issues so let's select I don't know this video for example
all right so it took a bit to skip those some ads let's see what the quality we have set here
so yes you can select the maximum quality available um for these movies which is
4K but keep in mind that the resolution of the projector is actually 1080p so let's go back here
I'm gonna move back a bit so let's start at the beginning
just so you can see how on fast it starts how the image looks so really really good quality
from this projector okay so we'll exit this I just wanted to show you quickly how um the YouTube app
would work on this projector and next let's go back to home and we'll go to the settings menu
so at the top there settings so we have the projector settings here a device preferences
you can basically check out the TV box part of the projector if that makes some sense so here we can
see that we have Android TV 11 running so let's go back back and we'll go to projector settings
quickly so brightness we have three levels of brightness AI brightness will basically adjust
the color and the brightness based on your environments so if you're in a darker room
a brighter room it will increase and decrease the battery if you wanna save some battery of
course you're gonna put it in the ECO mode but if you're like me you're gonna use it in the standard
mode and have a hundred percent of brightness at all times here you can select different picture
profiles I usually leave it to standard I find that this one works the best for image
correction we have Auto Keystone and correction so every time you start the projector every time
you move the projector it to them auto adjust the Keystone and the same goes for the focus
so every time you start the projector every time you move it every time you touch it shake it it
will um refocus basically the sound I find that the movie sound works the best even Forum music
so I typically leave it in this um sound mode and of course here you can pair a different
device to to the projector and this way the projector kind of becomes a speaker so exit this
so that's the auto adjustment that I mentioned earlier and if we go to advanced settings here um
you have the auto mode the front the front ceiling so it depends where you have the projector placed
and motion settings so every time you move the projector you touch it as I mentioned earlier I
find the medium settings works the best so yeah a quick look at how the projector works and the
settings menu so to quickly conclude this video the nebula Mastery is a very impressive projector
in many many ways the video quality that you're gonna get from it is really good so the image
is nice and crisp this is also bright enough so you don't necessarily have to use it in
complete darkness so if you're using it on your patio for example you don't necessarily need a
complete darkness in order to enjoy the video quality from this because it is bright enough
the speakers inside it are also quite impressive definitely the best speakers that I've ever heard
them on any projectors so yes you can use this as a Boombox you connect to it um with your
smartphone and you can play your favorite music on the projector whenever you're not using it as
a projector of course the battery life on it is really good so up to five hours of watching time
if you are not charging devices from it because as I said this acts as a power bank for your
devices as well and as a bonus if you do drop the projector because well that could happen nothing
will happen to it because it is drop resistant up to half a meter and if it starts raining whenever
you have an outdoors event the projector will not break because it has an IPM X3 rating alright
guys hopefully you enjoyed this video thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next one
