We queried this with the manufacturer and were told that the chances of an update are hinged purely on sales: If it sells well, a new interface and update is likely.

The Android version is a bit old and, in reality, you may not see an update although they do note that over the air (OTA) updates are possible. When it comes to daily use, there are a couple of limitations that I came across. The presentation and solid feel alone show that this is a device that’s been well thought out and engineered. If I’m honest, far better than I expected of a device that’s just getting going on an Indiegogo campaign. For the most part, this is just a really solid device. Testing a projector is something very new for me, so I had to think about the areas that really worked, just worked and the areas that really didn’t work.

I’m genuinely impressed at how well this handled pretty much anything I threw at it to display. This was made possible because of the USB port on the back of the device that allows you to run a keyboard and mouse to control the screen. Out of curiosity, I even tried Google’s productivity apps on it. It was while I was streaming video that I discovered that the battery lasts - quite consistently - just shy of two hours when you’re using the Wi-Fi. If you’re going to do this, I’d recommend investing in a speaker that you can hook up to the projector, the sound is okay given the physical size of the projector but it’s not what I’d consider “good” sound. An unexpected joy of this was to project the picture onto the roof of my bedroom at night and watch sports or Netflix. During testing, I’ve run Netflix, YouTube (both pre-installed) and Kayo Sports for countless hours.

We’ve mentioned the fact it has Android built-in and that’s very cool because it means you can install almost any app of your choice. Now, this isn’t likely to cause too many problems for most users as the remote registers reliably from both sides and the rear of the device. I say largely because while the remote does make navigation very easy, there’s a bit of a flaw in that, depending on the angle you’re working from – the remote doesn’t register with the projector. This is largely offset by the simple and effective remote control. It’s been well thought out however, I did find the touch controls pretty clumsy, particularly when scrolling but that might be user error. Finally on top of the device you’ve got some typical “Android” touch controls such as home, back and menu, but also volume controls and the centre acts as a touchpad. On the right side is a focus roller that adjusts your focal length for different mounting or display options. The rear has power input, a headphone jack and a USB-A port. On the left, a very small power button and min-HDMI connector. On the front of the projector, the lens is covered by a simple slider to protect it and ensure the long term viability of the device. When it comes to controls for the projector there’s a number on the device, but also connectivity options.

Because I’m an overgrown child, we’ll start with the fun bits because it really is a great toy! Controls, Connectivity, Productivity and fun So that’s a lot to digest, so we’ll break it down a bit because there are functionality tools and some great fun to be had with this. The XDO Pico Projector isn’t just a dumb video projector, it has Android built-in, connects to Wi-Fi and has a host of features as a result of that and to top it all off: It’s battery powered making it possibly the ultimate mobile presentation tool. On the surface, it’s simply a tiny projector but there’s so much more to it than that. It quickly showed me that not only is there space for more display options in my life, but they’re also useful and a lot of fun. In the first 48 hours of having it though, I was completely blown away by the functionality and versatility of the device.

The Pico Projector - part of a campaign that also includes a micro PC - came across our test bench and I’ll be honest: I was somewhat sceptical as to the daily use case for business users, let alone home users. That being said, this one actually feels quite different, ready for market and well put together. If you’ve not been caught out by one, you’re probably far too sensible and don’t buy stupid s**t on the crowdfunding platforms. As a general rule, we’re a bit wary of Kickstarters and Indiegogo campaigns.
