The lack of video inputs makes it rather useless. They should have at least supported DisplayPort input over the USB C port. There are lots of cheaper portable projectors available that don't force you to use a laggy wireless connection.

I discovered with a projector that the bluetooth lag between a speaker and the projector is enough to be disconcerting.
I think if the lag were consistent, I wouldn't mind, or even notice. As long as the bandwidth is enough that the video isn't stuttering, I won't care that there's a half-second delay when I press play/pause. It's when there's not enough bandwidth, or there's a lag difference between audio & video that things are problematic.
But I can watch YouTube videos on my phone at 2160p over WiFi just fine. What makes you say it won't be? A projector that size isn't going to do 4k justice anyway - does it need the bandwidth to handle it? I'd honestly be surprised if UHD came out of something that small with any noticeable difference than 1060p.
Because of that phone, everything that folds twice will be called a tri-fold now. Great.
You're going to hate bifold doors and trifold pamphlets.
Don’t forget trifold wallets.
No, but now I hate english.
What does a tri&-fold wallet or pamphlet look like to you?
Even though it only folds twice
