Cons
Con Low resolution
The projectors resolution is 854 x 480. The picture looks good, but not as detailed as Full HD.
Con Low quality picture
The 640 x 480 resolution produces a low-quality picture. Pretty much the only review for this projector is the original document from Canon, so there is no objective information available about the picture quality. They did state a contrast ratio of 800:1, which falls far behind the best portable options.
Con Low lamp-life
Though it's 10,000 hours, portable projectors usually reach 20,000-30,000 hours. Projector lamps lose brightness over time, so you might actually have to replace the lamp and the replacement is probably not available.
