MitiCast Projector Review: A Pocket Projector That Turns Any Wall Into a Movie Screen?
MitiCast Projector
TV prices keep climbing and a big screen still needs a big wall. MitiCast is a small projector that promises a movie-size picture from a device you can hold in one hand. I tested it in a living room, a bedroom and on a garage wall.
What it is
A compact LED projector with built-in speakers, HDMI and USB inputs, and wireless casting from a phone. It sits on a table or shelf and projects onto any light wall or sheet.
How it works
You point it at a wall, focus the lens, and connect a phone, streaming stick or laptop. In a dim room it throws a picture well over 100 inches. The LED lamp is rated for years of use, so there is no bulb to replace.
The verdict
For movie nights, kids' rooms and the backyard it is a lot of screen for the money. It is not a replacement for a bright living-room TV in daylight, but with the lights down the picture is sharp and the setup is painless.
What we liked
- Huge picture from a tiny device
- Phone casting, HDMI and USB
- Built-in speaker, no extra gear needed
- Portable enough for camping or the backyard
What to keep in mind
- Needs a dim room for the best picture
- Built-in speaker is fine, not cinematic
- Manual focus
