- 1080p for visuals from 40-150 inches
- 330 ANSI lumens
- $199
If you're looking for a big-screen Roku TV experience without a big price tag, you're going to love the Aurzen Roku TV Smart Projector D1 Cube. Not only is it the first Roku TV smart projector, but it's also a very affordable $199.
This is a very big deal despite being a very small projector. Roku is the number one streaming platform in the US, Canada and Mexico, and that brand awareness means this could be a popular product. And in addition to the low price the spec is pretty impressive.
Aurzen Roku TV Smart Projector: key features
The Aurzen Roku TV Smart Projector is designed for both indoor and outdoor use (although there's no indication of a battery or IP water or dust resistance, which suggests mains-powered movie magic and not being left outside afterwards), and it delivers 1080p FHD with up to 330 ANSI lumens of brightness. It's designed to deliver visuals between 40 and 150 inches, and it includes dual 5W speakers.
There's dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2 (with private listening for headphones), HDMI, USB and a 3.5mm audio output, and it has AirPlay compatibility as well as integration with Roku's mobile app, wireless speakers and smart home system. The OS is Roku's, so you should feel instantly at home.
It should be easy to use too, with a guided setup routine, automatic focus and automatic keystone correction.
I very much doubt this little projector will be up there kicking it with the very best projectors from industry leaders, but it's considerably cheaper than our current pick of the portable projector crop, the XGIMI MoGo 3 Pro. That makes this a very compelling projector proposition for big screens on a budget.
