VANKYO Leisure 470 Pro
The best ultra-budget projector — native 1080p and decent brightness for casual movie nights under $160.
Our Review
The VANKYO Leisure 470 Pro delivers a surprisingly watchable picture for under $160. Native 1080p resolution is sharp enough for a 120" screen, and 250 ANSI lumens works well in a dark room. Built-in speakers, HDMI/USB inputs, and a 5W LED lamp that lasts 60,000 hours make it a simple, affordable choice for casual movie nights, kids' rooms, or outdoor screenings. It's not competing with Epson or BenQ — it's competing with your TV, and at this price, it wins on screen size.
