The Pico Genie M550 Plus ultra portable projector is one of the brightest portable short throw HD LED projector with inbuilt battery, wireless mirroring with Android built-in plus many more desirable features. This projector has been voted Best Portable Projector 2018 and 2019 (TechAdvisor).

The M550 Plus offers excellent image quality at 650 ansi lumens (3900 marketing lumens) and uniquely has battery power lasting up to 3 hours. The image is also shorter throw than the average LED projector meaning it creates a much larger image closer to the wall so if you are limited on space in a room or just want to get the biggest image possible its throw ratio is much better than average and double the size of some competitor products in the same ultra portable projector category.
Connectivity is extensive and includes an Android OS as well as wireless mirroring options for most smartphones including Apple, Android and Windows.
Supplied with a Radio Remote Control so you can command your projector from anywhere, don’t worry about not being in range!
There are a wealth of other options including wireless audio, USB x2 ports, VGA, HDMI, SD, USB, Wi-Fi. Includes option to connect a wired or wireless keyboard/mouse to control the projector or surf the net via the Android Interface (see specification for more details).
With inbuilt wireless connectivity and true Wi-Fi screen mirroring you can instantly connect and project whatever is on your tablet or Smartphone at 200". For more information on wireless projection, see our guide here
Powerful 3 watt stereo speakers are also built into the device and are amongst the loudest inbuilt speakers available on a portable projector at this weight.

Reviews
Tech Advisor (formerly PC Advisor) Magazine (2019): Best Portable Projector of 2019.
- “You'll see portable projectors for sale from as little as £20, but be very wary of sellers' claims about resolution and brightness. The simple fact is that you get what you pay for with a projector.”
- “the M550 Plus is a solidly featured little projector with an impressive battery life”
- “The variety of inputs and outputs is one of the M550 Plus's biggest strengths. Not only does it support AV, HDMI, and VGA inputs, but you can also wirelessly cast to the project from an Android or iOS device, and play files from the inbuilt storage (8GB) or a USB drive or microSD card”
- “Pico Genie says the M550 has a three-hour battery life, which is enough to watch a film on the go”

- fantastic Review by Richard Owen

Features/Connectivity Value Personal Projector were great for advice and suggestions. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. I got a Pico Genie unit which has been fantastic and has loads of great features.(Posted on 29/05/2019) - Good swift service from Personal Projector Review by Wendy Kirkman

Features/Connectivity Value We have now purchased four of these Pico Genie M550 Plus from you. We are setting them up in rural schools in Zambia. There are many challenges - not least the fact that the schools have only solar power which we installed. We are pleased to report that the projectors work well from DC and the light is bright enough even for an African classroom.(Posted on 25/05/2019) - Great product for the money! Review by Kacey
-
Features/Connectivity Value I am very happy with this projector! This projector provides amazing clarity on the screen. It is also small and lightweight, so it's perfect for travel. Because the bulb is LED, the projector does not get hot to touch; there is no need to let it cool down before packing it away. For the price, it offers great value!(Posted on 05/03/2019) - highly knowledgeable service Review by Mary Jane Wells

Features/Connectivity Value A superlative and highly knowledgeable service where the fine details about projectors are really honed - I couldn't find anything even half way comparable to this business in Scotland. I am also exactly the kind of user than amazon or groupon must detest in that I will use it those sites so much that it must make a mockery of their profit margins - free shipping. But honestly this service was so detailed and classy that I would certainly go here first. It has a personal touch thanks to Oliver and the site also breaks down the kinds of projectors and their uses in fine detail to really ensure that you get he best fit for your needs without wading through hours of youtube videos. I received really excellent customer service and would definitely buy from here again. A no -brainer!(Posted on 02/03/2019) - Great product delivered quickly! Review by Mr DJM Cormack

Features/Connectivity Value Amazing. Believe me, in picky when it comes to these things. I absolutely love this thing. I use it for Netflix, hulu, Amazon... Incredible. Portable as well!!! I can take it outside and watch a movie! With a 3hr battery why not??! Then I can Bluetooth a portable speaker or my headphones! Package complete. Honestly one of the best portable projectors out there.(Posted on 23/05/2018) - A Very Good Projector Review by A Pickering

Features/Connectivity Value Use this at home with the family, we just sit it in front of the screen and away it goes! We have everything we need on it so we don't even hook it up to the laptop usually, just use Netflix and iPlayer and it works great. The image is amazing too.(Posted on 23/01/2018) - Truly Portable Review by xjojox

Features/Connectivity Value I bought this on the advice of Personal Projector for use on a boat - the battery does as it says and the projection is super - we connected in a jiffy and had our own sailing cinema - the envy of any super yacht moored in our vicinity :-) perfect projector.(Posted on 27/12/2017) - AMAZING projector Review by Anthony Parker

Features/Connectivity Value Bought this for my business but have ended up taking it home on a night to use as a home cinema!(Posted on 09/11/2017)
