Abstract: Our previous run-ins with pico-projectors have left us vaguely disappointed, with units that will certainly fit in your pocket but underwhelm in their performance. BenQ’s Joybee GP1 has sized itself out pocket-portability but promises improved quality ...
Vivid color and sufficient brightness in low-light conditions; no pricey bulbs to replace; compact; USB port and speaker for PC-free file playback
Large power brick; proprietary video cable is too short; unresponsive touch-sensitive buttons; weak audio-codec support for video files hobbles use with USB port
