Overall, the Joybee GP1 is a low-cost, low-power alternative to a power-hungry TV that’s easily portable and quiet. The controls atop the GP1 are lackluster and frustrating, so I suggest using the remote control. Input options are limited at the moment...

Small footprint, Bright LED output, Great for portability
Fixed lens, Large external power supply, Included case only holds main projector unit
The $499 MSRP of this projector coupled with its diminutive size and nearly endless (LED) lamp life make this a compelling purchase. It's very easy to take with you and makes for a great "vacation" projector. The biggest disappointment...
