Verdict

The Epson EpiqVision Mini EF22 is a portable 1080p laser projector featuring 3-chip 3LCD technology and a brightness of 1,000 ISO lumens, capable of projecting a screen size up to 150 inches. Its main characteristics include a 360-degree swivel stand with tilt for flexible placement, a laser light source with a 20,000-hour lifespan, and a built-in Google TV interface for standalone streaming. Pros include its vibrant colour reproduction without rainbow artifacts, quiet operation (as low as 18dB in Eco mode), and a high-quality dual 5W stereo speaker system with Dolby Audio. However, cons include its lack of 4K resolution at its price point, limited physical connectivity with only one HDMI port, and noticeable loss of black-level detail in darker scenes.
