Laser Portable Gaming Projector reviewed: not ideal
This review delves into the Laser Portable Gaming Projector, a device marketed as a retro gaming projector with an Android OS and 80 built-in games. While the idea of an all-in-one retro gaming projector is intriguing, the reality falls short of expectations. The projector has a basic 720p resolution and 300 lumens, making it suitable for a small room but not ideal for larger spaces. The included controllers are cheap and of poor quality, and the integrated speakers are painful to listen to. The slow input response and mediocre emulation of games further diminish the overall experience. The reviewer highlights the legally sketchy nature of using ROMs in Australia, adding another layer of complexity. Despite some positive aspects, such as the easily hung projection screen and the underlying Android OS, the Laser Portable Gaming Projector ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying retro gaming experience. The reviewer suggests that it might be better to stick with a dedicated retro console for a more enjoyable gaming experience.
