When it comes to projectors, there are a couple of things I value most: practicality and features. The Yaber K2s does well in both of these categories, and that’s why it’s my favorite projector. And for Prime Day, it is down to its lowest price, reaching $349.99 (originally $499.99) after using the $40 on-page coupon.
I see the Yaber K2s as the standard for modern-day “budget” projectors (high-end ones easily go for a couple thousand dollars). But the K2s does the basics right and adds many good features to it.
The K2s is practical because it’s user-friendly: It has an autofocus feature that lets you find the prime focus in a few seconds regardless of where or how often you move the projector. Another very useful feature I love is the tap-to-screen NFC feature, where you can tap your phone on the projector to cast your phone to it. You can also control it with your voice since it has Alexa built into it. The integrated JBL speakers mean you don’t need to worry about audio if you want to take it with you outdoors (you’ll still need a power source) or take it somewhere on-the-go. It also comes with a TV dongle that you can connect to, which has pre-installed apps, including Netflix and other streaming apps.
The only limitation is that the brightness is only 800 ANSI lumens, so you want to be in a darkly lit room to get a good view of the content. The projector shoots 1,080p native resolution but supports a maximum resolution of 4K on a surface up to 200 inches in diagonal length. If you have WiFi 6 at home, you can take full advantage of it with this projector.
