AAXA Unveils New M1 Micro Projector

Tweet

Just a while ago we were talking about pico projectors and now it seems that we have moved to micro projectors. AAXA is the company that says it has launched the world’s smallest micro projector. The M1 is certainly very small, but is it enough to meet our projecting needs?

After all, a portable mini projector will never satisfy those people that rely solely on projectors to watch their favorite movies and TV shows. But such a projector will definitely be very useful in a business environment where presentations on the go happen all the time.

Curios what you can expect from the M1 micro projector from AAXA? Here’s a quick rundown of features and specs:

• Native SVGA (800×600) resolution
• Ultra-bright 66 Lumen LED light source
• 1GB onboard memory + SD card reader
• Input support: See Technical Info below
• RMVB, MP3, AVI, JPG decoder
• Projects up to a 100-inch image -In low-light conditions
• Optional iPod, PSP, PDA, DVD input cables

The micro projector is available in two flavors. The M1 Standard available for pre-order at $369 supports composite A/V input while the M1 Plus, available for pre-order at $399 supports both VGA and composite A/V inputs.

The projector promises “super color and image quality” thanks to a single LED light source that eliminates motion blur and color break up. The LED lamp will last for about 15,000 hours which means you’re more likely to change projectors before the LED lamp actually fails. Unlike conventional lamp projectors, the M1 will achieve full brightness in about 5 seconds as there’s no bulb warm-up time. That also means you can turn it off instantly when you’re done using it.

The M1 is pretty eco-friendly too. We’ve just established that it consumes less power as it uses a LED lamp capable of instantly delivering results but the M1 is also free of mercury. That should be one more reason for you to get an M1 Standard or M1 Plus in case you’re looking for a portable mini / pico / micro projector.
