    Summary: Few settings are on offer here, but here's what we went for: For brightness go for the mode where the lamp is surrounded by red, green and blue. This corresponds to the preset cinema setting. On the fourth line of the menu, there's a choice between an...

    Conclusion: In a dark room, the PK301 does pretty well whatever the video content. In a lighter room, you have to reduce projection area to make the images stand out, especially for darker scenes. On the whole though, video quality is OK. We would, however, have...

    Pro : 20 000 hr lamp lifetime ; Very compact ; Good visibility of images in dark room ; Extension of memory via micro SD up to 32 GB ; Mini HDMI connector

    Cons : In a room with light, projection area must be greatly reduced ; The darker the video content, the more the image must be reduced ; Very low internal memory ; Distorted gamma gives slightly burnt images for lighter tones ; 1h30 battery life in eco mode

    Cons : Not particularly bright at 20 lumens when using just battery power (get the battery pack) ; Battery lasts only about an hour with Standard Mode ; Not as small as most Pico projectors ; More expensive than other Pico projectors

    Summary: Around this time last year, we went walkabout with the first truly pocket-sized projector: Optoma's PK101. And frankly, once we'd seen past the allure of its design, we were underwhelmed. The thing just didn't chuck out enough light to actually do...

    Conclusion: Looks a decent spec which means you can get a good level of brightness from it. At this brightness level though you cant expect it to kick out thousands of lumens and be using it to project to a large audience but its perfect for small groups of people...
