Verdict
Crosstour P770 is fine for the price, but missing audio codecs and an aspect ratio that cannot be fixed make it hard to recommend.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Crosstour P770

  • Budget-friendly pricing, often found for under €100.
  • Highly portable and lightweight, weighing less than 1kg (approx. 940g).
  • Supports wireless screen mirroring via Wi-Fi, Airplay, and Miracast.
  • Versatile connectivity options including HDMI, USB, VGA, and SD card slots.
  • Long LED lamp life specified at up to 55,000 hours.
  • Includes built-in stereo speakers for basic audio needs.

What customers don't like about Crosstour P770

  • Native resolution is WVGA (800 x 480), which may lack sharpness compared to true 1080p models.
  • Low brightness (approx. 210 ANSI lumens) makes it difficult to use in rooms with ambient light.
  • Noticeable fan noise from the cooling system, common in compact LCD projectors.
  • Lacks a built-in battery, requiring a constant power connection for operation.
  • Manual focus adjustment required, as it lacks auto-focus features.
  • Image clarity decreases at the edges compared to the centre.

Verdict

The Crosstour P770 is a portable mini LED projector featuring a native resolution of 800 x 480 (WVGA) with support for 1080P Full HD input and a contrast ratio of 2000:1. Its main characteristics include an impressive lamp life of up to 55,000 hours, built-in dual stereo speakers, and versatile wireless connectivity supporting Wi-Fi screen mirroring via Airplay and Miracast. Pros of this model include its lightweight 0.91kg design, maximum projection size of 176 inches, and a comprehensive range of ports including HDMI, VGA, USB, and AV. However, notable cons include its relatively low native resolution compared to higher-end models, the lack of built-in Bluetooth and a battery, and poor performance for text presentations or in rooms with significant ambient light.
