Image Quality and Brightness
The detail of Full HD combined with DCI-P3 90% (meaning a wide range of color reproduction) makes skin tones and scenery look natural. Because it supports HDR10, it’s easy to suppress crushed blacks in dark scenes and blown-out highlights in bright ones, providing overall contrast.
450 ANSI Lumens is sufficient for a night-time living room or bedroom. On the other hand, under direct sunlight or strong lighting during the day, contrast will drop, so closing the curtains slightly or using a screen is a practical solution. When projecting onto a wall, applying a light color correction helps refine the image.
Ms.ガジェットIs it visible during the day?
Mr.ガジェットIt’s possible for short periods, but using shades or a screen is recommended. At night, you can watch it comfortably as is.
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Good contrast and resolution at night Natural colors with DCI-P3 90% / HDR10 makes gradations easier to see Easy to adjust with color correction even when projecting on walls | Blacks tend to look washed out under strong ambient light |

360° Rotating Gimbal: Project on Ceiling, Floor, or Wall Instantly
Thanks to the 360° rotating gimbal, you can quickly switch angles regardless of location: project on the ceiling while lying in bed, the floor for children’s play or stretching, or onto living room walls and verandas.
With minimal need for tripod or base fine-tuning, the AF (Auto Focus) + AK (Auto Keystone Correction) follow quickly, significantly increasing the freedom to “watch instantly wherever you point it.”
Useful in these scenarios:
- Ceiling Projection: Enjoy movies or planetarium effects in bed before sleeping.
- Floor Projection: For children’s educational content or checking your form during yoga.
- Veranda or Camping: Easy angle adjustment even in places with limited placement options.
- On Desks or Shelves: AF + AK quickly realign the image even when the device is moved frequently.
Ms.ガジェットCan I watch it immediately even if I point it at the ceiling or floor?
Mr.ガジェットYes. Even if you change the orientation with the 360° rotating gimbal, AF + AK will quickly adjust it!
Personally, I really appreciate how easily it projects onto the ceiling!
Ms.ガジェットWatching movies while lying down sounds great!
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Instant projection on ceiling/floor/wall without a tripod Maintains viewing rhythm even when frequently moved | Screen size and brightness may vary relatively at extreme angles |
Sound Quality and “Speaker Light”: Self-contained Audio and Ambiance
The balance features clear mids and highs, making voices in movies, anime, and streams easy to hear.
In Speaker Light mode, you can use Bluetooth music playback and lighting effects while the power is off, making it useful as a BGM device before sleep. Since the bass lacks the volume of a stationary unit, those who prioritize bass should use an external speaker.
Ms.ガジェットCan I enjoy it without external speakers?
Mr.ガジェットYes, absolutely!
With Harman Kardon 6W×2 and Dolby Audio support, the sound quality is quite good.
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Easy to use standalone with Harman Kardon tuning x Dolby Speaker Light allows for BGM + lighting ambiance | A separate speaker might be needed for very large rooms |
OS, App Experience, and Operability: Watch, Learn, and Relax with One Device
Aladdin OS supports major services like YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, and TVer. You can quickly access what you want to see or do via home screen shortcuts, voice search, and notifications (reminders) that encourage sleep. It also features original apps for education, mood, health, and mini-games—going beyond just “watching”—and the screen saver is customizable to your preference.
Ms.ガジェットAre the streaming services and convenient features sufficient?
Mr.ガジェットIt supports major VOD services and has many original apps!
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Supports major VOD, ready to watch upon purchase Over 20 original apps offer experiences beyond just ‘watching’ Fast operation with shortcuts, voice search, and notifications | Limited freedom for installing third-party apps Behavior or support may vary for some apps |
Gaming and Latency: Comfortable for Casual Play
In Game Mode + Auto Keystone (AK) Off, the response time is approximately ≤20ms (0.02 seconds). The reaction from input to screen is fast, making casual play of action or racing games comfortable. However, with AK on, it increases to ≤56ms, so honestly, it’s better not to use the projector for highly competitive games or rhythm games where timing is critical.
The immersion unique to a large screen is perfect for story-driven or single-player games.
Ms.ガジェットIs it okay for action or racing games?
Mr.ガジェットYou should probably avoid competitive FPS games, but for normal games, I felt it wasn’t much of an issue!
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Responsive controls with low latency of ≤20ms when AK is off High immersion on a large screen (great for solo play) | Difficult for strict competitive or rhythm games Latency increases to ≤56ms when AK is on |
Battery, Portability, and Terminals: Built for Easy Movement
With its 71.28Wh built-in battery and light weight of approx. 1.31kg, the appeal is being able to casually carry it from the bedroom to the living room or veranda. It supports USB-C (PD3.0) charging, designed to be easily powered by home USB-C chargers or mobile batteries (high-output types). For audio, it’s easy to connect to soundbars via HDMI (ARC), maintaining usability even when you change locations.
Estimated continuous playback time is approx. 2.5 hours for video and up to approx. 6 hours for music (in Eco mode). Since images tend to look washed out outdoors in direct sunlight, it is best used indoors or outdoors from evening to night.
Ms.ガジェットCan I watch a whole movie without a cord?
Mr.ガジェットYes. Approx. 2.5 hours of video is possible. Since it varies based on brightness, volume, and Wi-Fi status, it’s safer to use power for long streams.
- Tips for extending battery life: Lower brightness by one level / use Eco settings / turn off unused wireless features or notifications.
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| One movie + extra at approx. 2.5h / music up to approx. 6h Good compatibility with peripherals via PD Charging / HDMI (ARC) Easy to carry at 1.31kg | Practically unsuitable for bright outdoor use (comfortable from evening to night) Safer to concurrently charge for long streams |
Accessories: Ready to Play Right Out of the Box
Ms.ガジェットAre the bundled items and options sufficient?
Mr.ガジェットAladdin Lens, backlit BT remote + IR mini remote are included!
Aladdin Lens A/B attach magnetically, allowing you to switch between over 100 materials via hand gestures or remote control. They are perfect for creating a “healing atmosphere” in the bedroom.
The optional dedicated portable kit (includes 20,000mAh battery stand, estimated at 15,000 yen including tax) enhances outdoor operation (limited quantities).
| Merits | Demerits |
|---|---|
| Bundled Aladdin Lens allows immediate enjoyment of non-video experiences Backlit remote makes operation in the dark comfortable Expandability with items like the 20,000mAh battery stand | Limited accessories require attention to availability and extra cost |

A “Set Down and Watch” Device Strong at Night
“Aladdin Poca” is a portable projector that condenses 450 ANSI Lumens x Full HD (1920×1080), Harman Kardon 6W×2, and the original Aladdin OS into approximately 1.31kg. Its charm lies in its ease of use—“ready to watch as soon as it’s placed and pointed”—anywhere from the bedroom and living room to the veranda or camping trips.
Night-time viewing offers good contrast and resolution. With DCI-P3 90% and HDR10 support, skin tones and scenery look natural. However, blacks tend to wash out under strong ambient light during the day, making light-blocking or using a screen a practical necessity.
Auto Keystone + AF saves setup time. The sound is tuned by Harman Kardon, providing high vocal clarity, and the “Speaker Light” function allows for Bluetooth music and ambiance even while the power is off. For those who prioritize bass, using an external speaker is best.
Portability is excellent at approx. 1.31kg, with PD (USB-C) charging and HDMI (ARC) compatibility with peripherals. The built-in 71.28Wh battery allows for approx. 2.5 hours (estimated) of video playback. For gaming, it is comfortable for casual play at ≤20ms with AK off, but ≤56ms with AK on is unsuitable for competitive matches.
Aladdin OS supports major VOD services like YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, and TVer. Its strength lies in being fully self-contained upon purchase, with home shortcuts, voice search, sleep-promoting notifications, and abundant original apps for education, health, and ambiance.
Mr.ガジェットIt’s a versatile portable projector that performs well at night and is easy to use even when moved around. It’s just right as a first unit or a secondary device!
