Noisy, little adjustment of the geometry
Pro
- 1080p
- Small footprint
- Netflix/YouTube integration
Contra
- Noisy
- Very old OS
- Very limited lateral adjustment, projector has to be facing the screen
Limited but functional
Satisfactory product, to be used in a dark environment as indicated.
I strongly advise the update to connect a bluetooth speaker!
I tested the image up to 280 cm diagonal (Euro games), very correct result.
It is my first experience in video projector, so no comparison possible for my part.
Can be ideal for karaoke, football parties... And why not cinema too.
My son also uses it with his console for his great pleasure.
I find the product still a bit expensive for a use that remains occasional.Pro
- Light, small, easy to carry
- Easy to install
- Integrated Netflix
- Wifi
- Bluetooth after update
- Built-in speaker
Contra
- Use in a dark environment
- Built-in sound quality
- Very short manual
Price / performance very good!
... overall a good deal if you can darken the room well, the projector is not placed too far from the wall and you do not expect to be able to stream a movie directly to the projector (better connect a more potent feed player).
Pro
- Handy
- Reasonably priced
- Sound equalizer
- Amazingly good picture for the price (when dimmed)
Contra
- Awkward geometric correction
- The entire picture cannot be brought into focus
- Screen mirroring is at best good for surfing (high latency, low processing power)
- Difficult to calibrate colors (skin tones out-of-the-box quite unappealing)
already cheap
the fan is so loud that a (closed;) headphone is mandatory -> watching movies alone ... and I can't get the picture sharp everywhere at the same time.
Maximum file size from USB stick seems to be 4Gb ...
so: yes, it's a projector; would have preferred 3.5 stars.Pro

Random loud noise, terrible controls
I don't expect a computer, and a shitty one at that. Controls lag terribly.
Wireless video is useless because of the delay.
Sometimes a loud noise will start, making the device effectively useless.
Even when working fine it is still veeery noisy.
Quality is just okayPro
- Works
Contra
- Noise
- Lag
- Bad UI/UX
Super for home
Great for everything, but I expected more.
The biggest disadvantage for me was that the operating system is very limited and some functions don't work optimally. I recommend buying an Android TV stick because it offers significantly more streaming services as well as games, apps and functions. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the picture resolution. It's not Full HD, but it's a super sufficient HD for watching films or videos. I also recommend using external speakers (e.g. stereo or 5.1 surround sound systems - you also have the option of connecting speakers via Bluetooth) because the built-in speakers are really very shoddy. But that's what you can expect in this price range.
Pro
- Resolution
- Brightness
- Automatic alignment
- Bluetooth
- Many connections
Contra
- Fans are loud
- Poor software on the beamer
- Loudspeaker (very poor)
Oh dear!
This was a total bad buy - I wanted to use it to watch movies at home, but iTunes refuses to play media on the projector; it's very noisy; the picture is too dark. Hands off!
@Galaxus: The information on the product is incorrect, by the way. It states: "In addition to its elegant appearance, the projector is particularly convincing with its bright and colour-intensive image of up to 120 inches". The packaging says "recommended usage: Dark Room, maximum 65''". This means that the diagonal screen size is only about half as large as claimed, the picture is 4x smaller and only suitable for dark rooms. And there is no dB information in the technical data, I now know why.
By the way, the supplied fixed adapter is superfluous, a Swiss mains cable is included. That's the only positive thing about this thing!Contra
- Very loud
- Image dark
- iTunes refuses to work with this projector

Run away from this purchase, this device is worth NOTHING!!!
I already own a very good XGIMI device that I am satisfied with and that cost much more.
I wanted to buy this Neopix for mobile use, but as soon as I turned it on, I was very disappointed, do not buy this type of device. I knew that it would not be up to the level of an Xgimi, but I never thought that it would be such a "crap"...Pro
- NOTHING positive about this camera
Contra
- Bad image quality
- 3500 lumens ? I don't know where they measured that, I would say max 200
- Low brightness, the specification is for me misleading
- Software slow and does not react well
- Remote control reacts badly (bluethoot + infrared bad)
- Very slow wifi connection
- Mediacast does not connect
- Poor perceptible quality
- Looks like a Chinese device rebranded by Philips
- I thought I was getting a bargain for a mobile device, well I'm frustrated
- Very noisy fan, no speed control, always on full blast
- FUYEZ
- Ordered on 6.5.22, received on 7.5.22, repacked on 7.5.22
Very compact but quite noisy projector.
Of course, I no longer notice the ventilation during the movie. But this is not a projector for upscale demands, but for a quick, handy movie experience. Plastic housing not valuable, but also does not fall apart immediately.
That the speakers in the beamer are not usable is self-explanatory.Pro
- very compact
- very cheap
- bright enough in a darkened room
Contra
- image size is quite limited (otherwise it gets blurry)
- sharpness (is no Ultra-Mega-8k-HD wtf)
- loud fan
Price performance is right
Pro
- Compact
- Quiet
Contra
- Only works in very dark rooms

Meets my expectations perfectly
Tester's opinion
I was looking for a projector to use for movies and streaming series, this one totally meets my expectations.
Its Wi-Fi connection, its few applications and its wireless screen sharing from your phone or tablet allow this projector to be autonomous.
Its automatic keystone correction makes it easy to move it from one place to another without worrying about the image setup (the focus remains manual though).
Of course, the device makes some noise, but no more than any other projector. So it's not a drawback for me. The sound from the speaker could have been of better quality, but it is present and sufficient in many cases. Fortunately, it is quite possible to connect an external audio output.
Its real flaw, in my opinion, is its remote control on which the buttons are imprecise and lack responsiveness. I had to go back several times to enter it
In summary, this projector is ideal for "general public" uses thanks to its integrated features and its ease of use.Pro
- Its size
- Its weight
- Simplicity of configuration
- Auto keystone correction
- Image quality
Contra
- Remote control responsiveness
Small but unfortunately not fine
I bought this device 2 months ago new, it is my first beamer and for that on fully in order. Unfortunately, the software can not be updated correctly, there are always error messages or the update ends after the installation of its own and resets itself. The device is relatively loud, but that is normal for projectors in and of itself. It is relatively compact and therefore overheats quite quickly. Pre-installed on a neutered Android are div. apps such as Netflix Youtoube FastVPN Firefox ect. there is no store and no Google account or the like.
The remote control is functional and works via bluetooth and has a mouse emulation, but the thing is that every now and then the connection must be reconnected, also falls out with Netflix password again and again and in general, the whole software and interface is slow and crawly. But if you disregard this and e.g. an Android TV like the Nvidia Shild ect anhäng the device is quite okay. You just shouldn't put it in a tight box ect otherwise you have to expect heat problems.Pro

philips neo pix ultra2 projector
the videoprojector has some advantages: light, discreet it can be installed anywhere. It is very easy to use despite its very basic instructions. Its design is modern: the colors and the general aspect give it a modern design. The picture quality is good. On the other hand, the sound is quickly saturated on action movies. The use is therefore restricted. The power cable is a bit too short. the lateral adjustment is very limited since the projector must be facing the screen. the knob to raise or lower the projector is obsolete (a simple screw or unscrew). the remote control is practical and light but it would have needed to be self-reflecting to be able to use it easily in the dark. Finally, the fan is a bit noisy which causes some discomfort when watching a movie. Overall, I would say that this is a good projector for beginners.
Pro
- light
- easy to use
- image quality
Contra
- noisy
- short cable
- saturated sound
- noisy fan
Ideal for a first purchase
**Tester's opinion
Very good value for money for this projector. Easy to use, especially with Apple products. It does the job. We regret the power cord is a bit short and the user manual is short (but you can print the complete manual on the internet).
We will underline the presence of integrated speakers. The sound is not fantastic but they have the merit of being there. The projector makes a little noise but embedded in the ceiling with a good sound bar, it's OK. In conclusion, ideal for a first purchase of such equipment.Pro
- integrated speakers
- easy to handle
Contra
- short power cable
- makes a little noise
Disappointed
Not very complete manual.
I am quite disappointed with the image quality which is quite poor. It is better to use it in the evening rather than during the day to see something. The image is very dark during the day.
The fan is quite noisy. The integrated software is quite old and is not Android compatible, I had to plug in a box. Impossible to install new installations. The sound quality is not worthy of a home theater. The positive point is that it is light and portable so we can take it everywhere.Pro
- Portable
