- ►Today we test out and review the YG300 led projector!
UPDATE APRIL 2020: So this projector is probs best only for kids. Although it does project an image that can be seen, the quality isn't exactly the best so If you are looking for something to watch your films/Netflix/play games etc on then I would recommend the following projector:

All projectors i have reviewed so far:
• PROJECTORS
► HOW TO CONNECT YOUR PHONE:
Apple/IOS Devices:
You will need an OFFICIAL Apple lightning to hdmi adaptor and any HDMI cable.
►Apple lightning to HDMI adaptor: geni.us/exzaY
►HDMI cable: geni.us/XsxxJ6
Connect your ios device to the lightning connector. Attach a HDMi cable to the HDMI output on the apple adaptor and then to the projector. All done!
► Android Phones:
You can either connect via cable or casting. (Casting only works if your phone supports mirroring.)
For cable connections you will need an MHL adaptor. (Either micro usb to HDMI or USB-c to HDMi depending on your phone connection.)
However the best way is to cast your phone via either a Google Chromcast (or any cast stick) or an Amazon fire stick.
► Amazon Fire Stick: geni.us/MelXs
Plug in the fire stick into the projector. Press and hold the home button on the amazon remote. Go to "Display and Sounds" Select "enable screen mirroring". On your android phone pull down the settings option and look for screen sharing/mirror phone options. Select the amazon fire stick (or whatever you have named your fire stick) and you are done!

What would you show on this mini Projector??? 🎬🕹📺
The office lmao or newsies
Smash bros
Netflix and HBOgo, is it possible?
Horror movies
I was thinking about to connect PlayStation 4 (korean 1205 model) with this projector...
How do you think?
Will you let me to do so?
The first time of watched one of your presentations, very well produced as well as the "inspector gadget" style music, thank you I might get one of these lil projectors for my camper van.
Cheers Wayne, glad you enjoyed it! If you don’t mind me asking, how close to the projection would you be sitting whilst it was in your van? Just because the closer you are to it then of course the more the quality diminishes . (Depending on the size of the projection too)!
Just don’t want you to be disappointed!
Once again thanks for watching and commenting too! 👌👌👌
@@mcphoney, good evening thanks for the response. Good question, I'm doing a refit on it shortly and it would be between 2-4 meters away depending on the final layout. I'm not really after a huge image though, this little thing would just stow away very well. If you can recommend another under £100 that would be great. Thanks
I have had this in my room for 2 years Thank so much for your advice
Is clear view? And what about the colors?
I do not know but in videos it is not clear
@@nostaalse1102 for $35 it's very good!!!
Great channel! Came here cus I was looking into cheap projectors lmaoo - I subbed!
Thanks Luis - that is greatly appreciated!
Found this in my thrift store for $7 😂
Ladybug201
Sick that’s a lucky find
Epic!!!
Lucky You For Reals !
Wow, that's the lowest I've heard. It's for 20 bucks on wish
Not worth more...
Thanks for the great review. The best by far - simple and easy. Straight to the point. Thank u!
Thank you as my wife got this for me just now for Christmas I do my kids football highlights and always like to broadcast them on our TV so she thought this would be a great way to project their videos
Everyone from insta💀
HAHAHAHAHHAHA
Lmfao
From snap
I got the ad from reddit.
yes
I love how surprised he sounds lmaoo like his expectations for this were so low to begin with
This channel deserves more subscribers! Great content, 👌🏽
It would have probably been better if you connected it to a phone.since phones are mostly used nowadays.
Eloise Ty Well said. Unfortunately this projector doesn’t have the “casting” capability so I “stupidly” didn’t think to try it with my phone. You can connect via a MHL adaptor apparently though if that’s any help! Thanks for watching and commenting btw! Much appreciated! 👌
Eloise Ty agreed
Makes no difference, the result would've been the same.
@@mcphoney can you connect with your phone via USB and just project your phone's screen ? Thanks for your help
Probably connect a chromecast
Genius ! I hook up a Digital Alarm Clock via a 4 meter HDMI cable. This YG 300 with its battery can last from 1 - 1.5 hrs. Just mount it on my bed head with Clams which I obtain from Office Works.
My Wi Fi Digital Alarm Clock comes with USB ,HDMI , Optical and others ports which I have no idea what they are for but all understand they are all inputs. The best buy I ever did and the best place you can watch Movies, MP4 and even playback MP3 on Big Screen on the ceiling while in bed .. best position which you wont hurt your back or get sore on your neck.
Can I connect it to a laptop?? And do I have to put it on power all the time or it does have a battery?
Excellent video, i was on the fence but after watching this vid definitely will buy it.
I bought this for the kids bedroom. It is not that great. We watched couple of movies on it.
I connected the fire stick through HDMI. Fire stick has an option to connect to Bluetooth speakers so I connected mine to the soundbar.
The projector screen that I bought was no good. In fact, this worked OK on a white wall in our house. The room needs to be very dark for the picture to appear clear on your screen.
Spend few more quid and get a decent one if you are looking to get a clear image!
great review mate I have been looking at these a lot because I need something small in my apartment to deal with and to show movies on
Thanks Andrew, Im a tad worried however because i think my video has given the wrong impression of this projector. Yes it does project but the quality is ok...not exactly great. If you plan to use it a lot it maybe best to look for something that offers better picture quality. The kids love this projector but I assume that is because they dont care about 1080p etc! Ha ha! Anyhow if you do get one I hope you like it!
@MCPHONEY what is the original brand that made this bc I can only find it on second-hand websites
Thank you very much for this. I was looking at this on tik tok a lot and was thinking of getting one! 🙏
Subbed and liked. This was SO helpful. Support from New Zealand. Kia ora ✌
Thank you!!👌
thanks Adrien Brody for your review
Ha ha, Im called either Adrien of Mesut Ozil!!
@@mcphoney Holy shit, You do look like Ozil
It’s not a review, it’s a sales pitch for a crappy product, don’t buy it.
Thats wat i was thinking too lmao
Can you put a chromecast into the HDMI slot on the projector? Then stream from your phone to the chromecast and it projects onto the wall? Thanks
Can you put it close to the canvas without losing focus?
could you show step by step how to connect the cables? and connection from the phone?
Thanks. Your review is very helpful.
No problem, glad I could help!
I’ve purchased the projector and paid £50 for the adaptor, but everytime I plug it in, it briefly flashes, then when I press again to turn it on, it doesn’t project/flash, any idea why?
How loud would you say the projector fan is?
How can you watch anything when the projector has to be right in front of you because the projector can only project on a straight wall because its not possible to adjust skewing!?
You can sit in front of it as long as it’s over your head.....
Can you stream anything from your phone / mirroring with wifi?
I have the older model. Any idea how to update the firmware?
Hi, sorry can you show me how to adjust volume without using the remote control (mine is broken) and I’m struggling with the sound
the craziest thing is that thing can be powered by a power bank. really portable, good for camping trips
I tried to connect the projector with my Mac book air 17 (HDMI-cable) and the projector didn’t find it “no signal”. Does someone know how to fix that? Thanks :)
Hey man sorry your going through that I couldn't find anything to help you out :/
Go into display preferences and lower the resolution, that should get it to work
Franka-Maria Schlund Apple company is very hard to work with different brands it’s hard you can’t
Hello, can u attach an aux speaker to this one? Thank you!
How do you get it to prpject your phone ive tried and could not get it to work u less I wpuld use a USB stick
Awesome, i always wanted to get a portable projector.. thanks for the review! :)
go here buy one cheaper www.shopgoodwill.com/Item/74057342#shipping-tab
The only video of this projector in english. Thank you
No problem! 👌
I can't see jack, only if I'm in a pitch black room, am I missing a setting somewhere?
Hi, do you know why my projector doesnt show anything? It become blank white
Lovely presentation Alex. I thinking great for kiddies when you said the same thing.
Thanks Stephen, to be honest the quality of the projection is “slightly” better when viewed with the naked eye as during filming the camera added a slight bit of noise to the footage because it was being filmed in such low lighting! Defo one the kids will love though!
Much appreciated for watching and commenting btw! Glad you enjoyed it too! 👌
Your studio is so aesthetically pleasing
Thanks for the quality content and also for your unique style
I know that not everyone will share this perspective, but the video’s music accompaniment feels a bit harsh to me
Have a very nice day and even week
Can you connect your headphones to it? Or with a USB connect to your phone?
You think I would be able to see the score in sports games?
Can you mirror your desktop PC?
As in use this as a monitor.
If your pc has a “HDMI out” then yes indeed, just simply connect it via a HDMI cable. Hope that helps! 👌
I’ve recently done another review for another projector if you fancy a look! It’s a tad more expensive but offers far superior picture quality. You can see it here. ua-cam.com/video/3p63iXS8Aoc/v-deo.html
Yes
@@mcphoney Hey im sorry to bother but there is anther screen turning up while I try to connect my computer to the projector by HDMI, do you have any idea how to fix it? It looks like 2 screens and in the top left corner there is a text "MiroLine", Id deeply appreciate an answer if you know how! THanks!
@@Drogba777
Native Resolution: 320 x 240
AKASO Mini Projector: amzn.to/2KUJovi $199.99
Bought one to project my digital drawings on a canvas and retrace it rescalling the size. Resolution is bad but it kinda works for the purpose.
how small can you get the image on a cxanvas I was thinking of getting one for the same purpose
That is exactly what I wanted to buy it for, still decent?
I’m buying one exactly for this. Does it work okay?
what does the fan on it sounds like? some projectors cooling fans are loud
can i use this as an extended desktop (like a second monitor)?
hi what is the best adjustment for bright, contrast and sharpness to make video clear??
@JitterzZ 88 and warranty card
So can i connect this to my iphone or ipad with my lighting cable into its usb port?
Finn Campeau no you need an HDMI adaptor to use it on your iphone
Tia Abdoun what’s the usb port for?
The lightning cable is used for charging it doesn't display anything because that's not what it was intended for unlike a hdmi cable
When I turn on my led projector on it keep saying no signal
What type of watch are you wearing?
So I can’t stream Netflix or UA-cam with this, I have to use downloaded files???
I think you can, just connect it with your PC via hdmi
Adapters are cheap for your phone
Since it has HDMI, you could. But I don’t recommend as the image is a lot worse than this video shows. I’ve bought one before (new), and it was absolutely terrible. For the same price, I suggest buying a used names brand product, like Epson. I did that, spent the same amount of money, and the image difference is absolutely amazing on the Epson.
If you have a chrome cast it works too , it has a hdmi and a usb port
Have to agree with @midnightwolf on this one. The projector is ok and great for kids but if you are looking for a permanent tv replacement or something to watch a lot of stuff on the it maybe best to spend a bit more!
Just got this and when I connect anything to it it just says no signal. I tried HDMI, AV and USB, all the same thing. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is and how I could fix it?
Have you managed to solve it? From what I remember it was literally plug in your device via hdmi/usb etc and then select the appropriate source via the projector on screen menu...
Can you just like connect ur phone to the projector and whatever in the screen in ur phone can show up can you do that or not?
Hi how can you get onto the screen where you can change picture image, settings and sound? Thank you
Hi, thank you for the review! Can I watch a film with subtitles? Would I be able to read them?
Hi there, I’m afraid not, Subtitles would be far to small and pixelated to read! Sorry!
I’ve watched a movie with subtitles on it last night, worked fine for me :)
late reply but this was also a question I had when watching reviews and now that I purchased it might help someone else: the subtitles work great! since you’re projecting the video in a larger scale the subtitles are also bigger so they’re perfectly readable :)
Do you think this would be suitable to project onto a canvas to roughly trace outlines of a photograph or would it be too blurry? Trying to find a cheap projector that will do the job for painting guides.. Cheers
liam gardner I think it could be too blurry/pixelated tbh. You would get a rough outline I suppose but do think it may be difficult to trace. How about the Blitzwolf I reviewed? That’s quite cheap but far superior to this model. If you wish I’ll set it up and see how it would do for tracing and let you know the results? Let me know! 👌
How can I connect Bluetooth speaker and iPhone at the same time to yg300?
Is it compatible with iPhone SE or MacBook?
how to watch Netflix from tablet/phone on that? any option to connect external speakers?
Buy a Bluetooth speaker
I’m having trouble getting the audio to work. Bluetooth speaker isn’t connecting😤
Do you know of any projectors that would work well for tracing images? So projecting onto a small area like 11x14?
Hiii please did you try and it worked for a small surface?
Will you be able to use this in america due to the power cable?
How to adjust the light in the day so that the text is cleared
I got an ad for this on the video 😂
Ha ha! Epic!
Hey beautiful... long time After 3 years ... how are you
@@CarChroniclesOnline dead. 💀
@@brittanyphillips7596 😂😂✅️
Okay so i ordered one off wish so i hope it works. I will keep y'all updated
Wish is quite cool for some bargain tech! Hope you are happy with it! Let us know your thoughts!
Is it good?
How loud is the cooling if it's there?
Does it have built in speaker? How is the quality like?
Btw good job and thanks for the review.
Did it deliver yet?
it probably won't show up for a couple more weeks
stuff i've ordered takes a month at least to show up
I bought this off of prime projector website and it still hasn’t came after 2 months,they are not responding to my emails please someone help
How can I connect this to laptop or Android phone so I can watch Netflix?
Great video and the best so far on this projector...Question: If I only want to project some photos on a wall from a flashdrive does this have to be connected to a computer or can it just be plugged into the wall outlet?...you have a very nice voice and accent.
Hi Dennis, thanks for watching and commenting! 👌 When it comes to pictures, in my review I just used jpg files on a memory stick plugged directly into the projector itself.
However if you are looking to show off some pictures in glorious detail then I wouldn’t recommend this device. Buy If you are just planning on having a few random family/fun pictures in the far background of a party then that would be fine. Basically pictures can be seen but are a bit pixelated. Hope that makes sense!
@@mcphoney Hello, yes I understand what you say here...for my purposes I think this projector would work very well...Thank you so much for the reply!
The nebula is the best portable project, but it cost a pretty dime. Very worth it though it’s amazing.
Plugged a hdmi cable into it from my laptop doesn't do anything, no idea why. White light blinks for a couple seconds when turned on then nothing
How do you use the built in battery for the projector?????? Do you HAVE to have it charged for the three hours and then be able to use the on and off switch or what??
Hi Eric, to my knowledge this projector doesn’t have a built in battery I’m afraid. It has to be plugged in to a main power source in order to work.
How do you think it would work for projecting a scary Halloween video on to a darkened rooms ceiling??? If you move the device back further, will it project a larger image -although losing quality but that's ok I'm not fussed about that. Interested to know what you think about this idea!
Quality is bad bad, it says current video playing at 1080p @60hz but doesnt look like
It would work but it wouldn’t be the best. You would have to have a completely blacked out room and the maximum screen size this projector can produce is 60 inches and even then everything is not in sharp detail and not exactly bright. This is more of a kids projector I would say. Sorry about that!
Defo wouldn’t recommend this projector for a home cinema. It’s more for young children who aren’t fussed on picture quality. It supports 1080p but can only produce 240p!
@@mcphoney i set youtube quality to 1080p now picture quality is fine,text is readable but not that great😂😂😂
That’s great. 👌 Is it a newer/upgraded YG300 model? I did see some recently!
Does it have to be perpendicular to the wall? Or it can be adjusted and project diagonally?
Obviously the image will be distorded. And don't expect cheap things like this to take care of that for you
I love it the picture quality is great and the speaker on it is okay but for better quality I’d hook up a better speaker
2020 here its nice for home quaratine days
Would you be able to charge this projector, like does it have a form of battery life, so that you could use it without it being connected with a power cable?
You can use a precharged thingy that u use for ur phone
@@lexxieclarisse2126 portable charger I think you mean hahaha
5:00 It Does. It Does Look Really Good It Does !
What is best adjustment to calibrate this yg300 projector?
can you play amazon fire stick on it? And you said yes to MacBook with HDMI but NO? to iPhone compatibility?
Hi there! Sorry about the late reply! An amazon fire stick should work absolutely fine and in regards to connecting an IPhone...you can do it but you need an OFFICIAL apple Lightning to HDMI converter. (Around £50) Hooenthat makes sense! 👌
Me and my family are looking to make a mini home cinema in our garden, would this still work okay outside as long as everything was plugged in right? :)
Hi there, I feel personally this projector would not be sufficient for your plans of a garden hike cinema.
This projector works best in complete darkness and if you do plan to have a few people around to watch it with then I’d suggest splashing out a bit more. I reviewed the Artlii Enjoy which is still a budget projector bit a bit more expensive however it is far better and brighter than the YG300! Hope that helps!
ua-cam.com/video/fG40dne_fp0/v-deo.html
Noooo... Don't buy it. Bullshit product
So if I buy this projecter can I watch UA-cam on it and Netflix orrr...
I’m guessing yes, since you can plug it up to your phone & watch anything
When setting this up on and angle would it be albe to focus straight to a wall
How do you connect the audio up
Can you use it to watch Netflix from your phone in the ceiling of a bedroom?
Javier VS yes
Justarandomgirl how??
Can it be used for Apple tv/chromecast? To stream Netflix etc? :)
Chromecast works, bare in mind though the aspect ratio of this is only 4:3 not 16:9. Great for old consoles like SNES, but movies will give you a black boarder in widescreen.
Is it compatible with a chromecast? Anyone know? Or anyone knows which ones are the best ones for chromecast? 😊
do any of you guy know how to update software for this projector please i need it
can you use it under coloured lights?
Hello, plz answer
I ordered this a week ago not knowing I cannot connected my ipad to it.. :( , is there a way to connect my ipad to it? So I could stream Netflix
You can connect ipad/iphone to it but unfortunately you need an adaptor im afraid. MHL or Lightning to HDMI. You can get cheap ones but as I have found out Apple dont like you using "non apple" products with there devices and they either dont work or if they do then they suddenly stop after a short while. Can you cancel the order or return the projector? Or do you have a google cast/amazon fire stick to connect to it to watch netflix? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!
MCPHONEY thanks for replying back! I will try it with an adopter and hopefully it works, cause all I got is apple products.. and I can’t cancel it , its been shipped /: and if the adopter doesn’t work, do you know any other
mini projector would work?
MCPHONEY and no I dont got google cast or amazon fire
The thing I am worried about is how good the picture will be once you’re connected up. I think the Apple adaptor (lightning to HDMI) costs more than the projector itself! Obviously it’s up to you but I’d hate for you to spend even more money and be dissatisfied! (This is only a 320x240 resolution projector. A HD TV for example is 1920x1080 resolution)
So if you plan to use it a lot it may be worth saving up for a better projector?
A did a review for another budget projector which maybe better
ua-cam.com/video/fG40dne_fp0/v-deo.html
Or this one:
ua-cam.com/video/RUZxo1LW-TI/v-deo.html
But at the same time you would still have to buy an adaptor to hook up your iPad.
So instead of hooking up an iPad it may work out cheaper to buy an amazon fire stick or google chromecast to watch Netflix.
Sorry to get so complicated!
MCPHONEY thank you so much for all the information! It helped me out! First I will try with the adaptor and if it wont work, ill just sell it and get one of the ones u recommended! 😊
I bought this the other day, mine doesnt have the USB input option. It has the USB port built in, but no option to actually display on the projector.
How bizzarre, did you get anything sorted? I take it if you plug in a USB it doesnt auto switch to it does it?
Can i power this in the car if i plug it in the 5v port?
Are you able to adjust the screen size ? That’s one of the things I wanted to know
Yes and no. The only way to adjust the screen size is by moving the projector itself Im afraid. (ie closer or further away from the wall) Sorry about that!
MCPHONEY ah well that’s kinda of a down side but I can work with it. Thank you for the information :)
It’s common sense really
Can you reorient the display? Say I wanted to hang this projector from something upside down. Can I flip the picture so it isnt projected that way?
Hi Josiah, sorry about the late reply! Unfortunately with this projector you cant re-orientate it Im afraid! :-( Sorry about that!
Hello. Does anyone know how to fix the blinking issue of the yg 300?
I have one and it has horizontal and vertical lines color white, red, violet and green. I don't know how to fix it :(
Oh dear, that doesn’t sound good. Did you buy it like that or has that just happened?
If it arrived like that the contact where you bought it from asking for a replacement/refund. If it has just randomly happened then it sounds like connection issues inside. I could be wrong of course. Have you tried all of the connections such as the HDMI or memory card input to see if it shows up on all of them?
How to connect to my laptop? everytime I try this i'll get a blue screen with some sort of qr-code?
Nvm, bought a proper hdmi cable and worked just fine.
How much did u buy for & where? The mini projector
@@Mytoria I have this issue too I believe. Theres some other screen popping up. You bought a new HDMI-cable than the one that was supposedly in the package when ordering it? Or what do you mean? I really wanna try to fix this.
@@Drogba777 Yep, I've bought a cheap HDMI-cable and it instantly worked for me. My projector didn't come with a HDMI-cable though, ordered a wrong one along with the projector so buying a proper HDMI-cable fixed it for me.
@@Mytoria Is that a HDMI- HDMI cable? Thanks for the reply! I got a HDMI - USB one with the package but it didnt work.
Does the sound on this work well? And I know this video was made a while ago but does it still work? On a scale of 1-10 what would you rate it for someone who just wants to buy it to watch movies every now and then?
I’m sure you can connect a speaker to it to use that or smth like that
Hdmi sounds good but usb/sd card is bad
I got this for Christmas for my son. But the picture is very very small. Is there any way to adjust the picture size. It’s no where the size of urs on this review
Do you need to buy a chrome cast to stream Disney + from your phone? If so which would you recommend? Where would you connect it?
Mia Landgren You would need some sort of chromecast or amazon fire stick device plus a power supply to plug it into. The chromecast or stick would go into the HDMI connector on the projector. 👌 However please note some paid per view apps/streaming services won’t allow them to be connected to a projector. For example BT Sport doesn’t allow it unless you have a prescription on your TV. (I only have it on my phone so it doesn’t work. And if you have an IOS device (Apple) then you can’t connect Netflix to a projector either. Netflix does work on an android phone, but not Apple.
Bummer. I wouldnt be able to read subtitles then
Im afraid not sorry!
@@mcphoney Ugh!!! Can't find a BUDGET one good enough to read my captions :( ~ a Deafie
Good point!! I need my subtitles
I'm so confused. How do I get a movie to play?? How do i connect it to my phone or computer??
USB
5Nights AtEddys lies
You can use the hdmi output and connect an hdmi-to-phone adapter.
Did you get it to play a movie?
Have you tried a Bluetooth dongle? Just wondering if you can BT with a tablet??
Was gifted one and the fan didn't work so it kept overheating and shutting off. Not recommended from me.
