What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it

Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.8 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Kodak FLIK X4

  • The LED light source is rated for 40000 hours.
  • Weighs 0.86 kg, light enough to carry from room to room.
  • Draws 50 W in operation.
  • A 3.5 mm audio jack takes a speaker or headphones.
  • A memory slot plays files straight from a card.
  • A 1 m minimum throw suits a small room.

What customers don't like about Kodak FLIK X4

  • 700 lumens is too dim for a lit room.
  • The 800x480 picture looks soft on a large screen.
  • Speaker output is only 2 W.
  • Manual focus and no motorized zoom mean adjusting by hand.
  • There is only one HDMI port, and the top input is 1080p at 60 Hz.

Verdict

Under a kilo, the Kodak FLIK X4 is a small projector for a bedroom wall or a spare room. The LED light source is rated for 40000 hours, and it draws 50 W in use. The 800x480 picture reaches 150 inch, fine for films at home but soft on a big screen. A memory slot lets you play files straight from a card, and a 3.5 mm jack takes a speaker. The 700 lumens need a dark room, and the 2 W speakers are thin, so headphones or a speaker help. Focus is set by hand, and there is no motorized zoom. At 205 mm wide and 75 mm high it sits neatly on a shelf. It suits someone who wants a light projector for a dark room and does not need sharp detail.
