Anker’s Nebula Solar HD portable projector is now nearly half the price

The Anker Nebula Solar HD portable projector is available on Amazon for $250. This matches the previous low and is 46% below the current list price of $460. When it first launches in 2021, it will cost $600. We highly recommend the Nebula Solar in our Projector Buyer’s Guide as a noteworthy budget option, noting that you get a lot of features for the same price.

It is a 1080p HD projector that emits 400 lumens of brightness, suitable for use in bright outdoor areas. Batteries are included, but that’s not always the case with portable projectors, so that’s another related saving. You can play games for up to three hours on a single charge (depending on how bright you set the output), with sound provided by dual three-watt speakers that support Dolby Digital Plus.

Android TV is pre-installed, and the projector supports Wi-Fi for content access. You can also connect via HDMI, USB or Bluetooth, and it can mirror content from your phone using Miracast. Since it’s a projector, the screen size depends on how far you place it from a wall or other projection surface. The product provides up to 120 inches of movie or TV viewing, and comes with a built-in stand to help you adjust the angle.

Of course, as a portable projector, the Nebula Solar Projector won’t be as bright as its wired counterpart, but if you want to try watching movies under the stars when the weather warms up, it’s a pretty cheap way to do it.
