If you're looking for a new budget portable projector in 2021 I think this BenQ GS50 is the best bang for your buck. It's great for camping, gaming, watching movies and TV at home. You can also use it for fake windows and room ambience.

I love the design of it.
Right!?
I've been looking for a small projector for home! Love it. Looks like what Master Chief carries around for when he needs to decompress.
Before the Big fire hit us on the 'hill' (Santa Cruz mountains) - for 3 years we had a large screen outside, and projector, and invited over friends and neighbors for movie night on Fridays (mainly, but sometimes Saturday) - and it was absolutely awesome. I bought the projectors from a 'trade in' type of shop, and both were good - anyway, what fun! We had a camp fire outside as well, and wine of course... and other stuff... but it was so much fun. Then the fire came, and took it all away. It was beautiful while it lasted.
Sorry to hear about the fire ☹️
That thing looks so dope
Love the idea of an outdoor family movie evening or night.
"You leave first. No, you leave first. Okay, bye!" LOOL. Damn it, now I want that box. Actually, it does look pretty cool. Thanks for the informative review!
I have one of these in my van, I have an 80" projector screen ps4, Ecoflow River Pro to power it all and the BENQ GS50 Projector....my winter nights in my van here in the UK 🇬🇧 are very enjoyable 😊
That motorcycle part earned you a subscriber
😂
Bro, if you do an analog review, that will be crazy! Great review bro!
Awesome review - love your videos!
Thanks, Patrick!
Hello, more tech stuff in the home theater space please. Also love the outros from the mini and Pro review where you recommend a song/album/movie!
I'll bring that back next week with the macbook's
"You leave first. No, you leave first." Awesome ending. lol But on a serious note -THANK YOU SO FREAKIN' MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! I've been on the hunt for the "perfect" projector and this totally fits for what I'm looking for. Thanks for all the visuals, tech specs, and projector screen recommendation. And guess who's buying this on Cyber Monday because it happens to be on sale? *Points to self and gets up to dance because the discount is not bad* It may be on back order but I don't mind waiting. Keep crushing' it man. :D
Thanks so much! Hope you get your projector soon 🥂
@@impatrickt Question: Do you have the link for the projector screen? I couldn't find it in the description? *Looks for blue light blocking glasses and eye drops*
Best UA-cam outros ever 👌
Best of the worst 😂
Would love to see the Sonos home theater setup
Great review. Also good to see you on Gerald Undone the other day. That Sirui anamorphic full frame lens is on my list. That’s for sure, but I’m waiting for the future release (it will cost $300 more) which I hope will tame the lens flare a bit.
im trying to get an L mount copy from them to do more tests!
@@impatrickt excellent. I also own the S5 so I’m looking forward to hearing more from you. I have a Portkeys BM5 iii, so I believe for monitoring I can de-squeeze correctly for 1.6x.
@@BNC593 yes I have one too
I just purchased this because of your review
Nice! Enjoy it.
Damn it, how many fancy tech cubes you gonna tempt me with 😂
it should 100% come with a new ford bronco -- that collab should happen
2:25 best movie ever
the design !
Cozy…cool design 🤓
Nice review man. Thanks. I might have missed, but what outdoor projection screen do you use?
Just a cheap one from Amazon there’s a bunch under $100
It’s funky for sure, what’s the bulb life (do they still use bulbs?). When I look at the design I think VW van, lol.
no bulbs it works like an LED COB
I like the dark vibe
feeling cozy ya know
Great review! Mind sharing where / how to get the fake window projector setup?
huh? lol it's the projector I reviewed in this video...
I need this.
Oh man. For sure!
I didn’t know projectors could be so stylish? 🤷♀️ also, can we get an outro with affirmations?
2:36 LOL
Its a form of compensation of ... falic proportions.
I'm planning to mount it above my head in my van,
Can you flip the projector upside down? Does the image follow? Is that possible
Cheers 🤙
Where's the free pizza. But okay damn you really make me want to buy a projector I cannot afford
Thank you for the great review. You seem to be using it with a good quality tripod (or 2…). Could you share what they are?
Ifoootage cobra monopod
that was me in the motorcycle
get an e-bike
@@impatrickt just going to start levitating from point A to B
More cozy jackets plz
I knew you’d like the zip up
where did you get those cool creative images from? fake window etc.... Thanks!
UA-cam
2 questions:, does the projector have Netflix, it’s kind of an issue for smart projectors running Google TV; what monitor do you use?
Yes it does!
"They're not pillows!!!"
You should try XGIMI Halo+.
This looks great. But I prefer Halo+'s auto obstacle avoidance.
ive never projected it on anything that would benefit from that
how do i theater hop with this tho
Sorry bro. I get too excited on my bike sometimes.
😂
Do you know if you can replace their benq stick with a firestick?
theoretically if you can fit it in the back slot it should work its just another standard HDMI slot from my understanding. I would reach out to BenQ to make sure.
Can it project to the ceiling like the Gv30 ?
You could point it at the ceiling
I hope that i get one soon, do you have code for sale or something?
Check description
I connected everything, still it says no signal ATV. How do I connect to Wi-Fi? Am I missing anything?
You have to plug the streaming stick in the back compartment.
@@impatrickt thanks
the projector autofocused better than the Panasonic 🤐
oh no i realllly like this...
It’s not something I would normally ever consider but I’m so glad I did.
can u hook up a powerbank to the device ?
it has its own battery
It’s ok. I totally understand you can’t really pronounce my last name for your Google assistant test. I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed.
😂
Version 1: 500 ANSI lumen
Version 2: 1000 nits. - basically 3200 lumen :D
I do not care
@@impatrickt wow, you are not taking that lightly - I don’t either. I just thought it was funny - it’s not an attack. Just something to point out dude
@@Opfergangsteryeah I dont care
@@impatrickt cool, cool ma poule
@@Opfergangsteryeah im just playing lmao
Love your videos but for old guys that need glasses you may want to give us more light. Sometimes it looks like part of your face is missing.
I’ve lit it specifically to appear that way. It’s called Rembrandt lighting. Thanks!
Sorry I’ll stop riding my motorcycle around you. I thought it was cool.
@2:39 - Most motorcyclists aren't revving their engines to prove anything. It's an action to promote "visibility". Most car drivers are not trained to be aware of motorcycles (or bicyclists, for that matter). Revving an engine makes car drivers around you aware there's a motorcycle present. I bought a new motorcycle a few years ago with a muffler that made the motorcycle virtually silent. I almost got hit four times within the first month of owning it. I then replaced the muffler with one that made my motorcycle audible enough to hear in cars with windows up and music blasting. Never had trouble with other motorists seeing me since.
im aware of motorcycle training - thats not what this was. it was an asshole.
Oh come on. Most motorcyclists have loud pipes just to be dicks (especially boomers on Harleys trying to impress women who are decades younger). For car drivers in the opposite lane to hear you at any distance, you would have to aim the pipes forward. I've owned bikes for 40 years and the way you avoid accidents is to assume that every driver at every intersection is going to pull out in front of you, Another tip is that you feel that you always feel that you made eye contact with the opposing driver. If you don't feel you made eye contact, slow down or even stop until they make a turn. The main downside to driving like this is that you pretty much have to drive the speed limit when in town. But hey.
How is it Apple when it’s android lol
Apple TV is an app now. It’s on every streaming stick.
Literally been talking to my girlfriend about wishing we had something convenient to set up so we can be lazy and watch shit in bed/create a nice cosy vibe.
I suffer from obnoxious 2AM engine revvers outside my window too - I wonder why they do it....
