We Tested 4 Ultra-Cheap Projectors, Starting at Less Than $50

Most of the best projectors we review here at CNET fall in the £500-to-£1,500 range because we’ve found that’s the sweet spot for price and performance. We’ve done a handful of high-end projectors, which are great if you can afford them, and we’ve also found some gems for just a few hundred bucks.

Some of those £250-ish no-name projectors, like the AAXA P8 and the Vimgo P10, did surprisingly well in my comparison tests. They delivered big, perfectly watchable images for less than the price of a cheap phone.

Which led me to the next question: How cheap can you go?  Amazon is rife with projectors that cost around £100, often way less. Are any of these any good?

Do any of them even work? Someone should find out. Then I realized, “Hey! I’m someone!” So I made a list, checked it twice, and then bought (OK, CNET bought) and reviewed the four that seemed the most interesting.

One is less than the price of a video game, one costs less than the price of a family dinner at Chipotle. All of them, amazingly, work. Sort of.

Here’s how they looked.
