The colors were so vibrant even in low lighting and got even better the darker it got.
The large speakers also create a surround-sound experience up to 15 feet away from the projector in any direction.

Our Testing Process
We tested nine different outdoor projectors in various options both on-the-go and at home.
The initial test lasted three weeks.
We placed the projector at an appropriate location for a movie screen, following manufacturer guidelines for specifics.
Next, we connected each projector to the appropriate media source to note ease of use.
Throughout the test, we used each outdoor projector a minimum of three times to watch movies and shows.
Dont underestimate the power of a high-lumen machine.
Be sure to check all possible options the outdoor projector offers before you make your purchase.
Just be sure to secure the fabric at all four corners to avoid any movement because of wind.
