Whether you want to take your home theater to the next level or just need something fun to do outside on a warm night, a good portable projector offers a fresh way to experience your favorite movies. And they can get expensive, but there are great options on the market for any budget. Right now, Walmart is selling a $160 Dr. J Professional Mini Projector for just $57.
This projector comes with an 80-inch screen, a cleaning kit, remote control, power cord, and HDMI cable. It supports up to 1080p high-definition at both 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios, so it's ideal for playing standard Blu-ray discs and DVDs.

The projector is also outfitted with Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, USB, microSD, and a 3.5-millimeter audio jack, so you can take advantage of movies, TV, and music from most of your other favorite devices — including external speakers. And if you decide you'd like to invest in a larger screen, it can project up to 200 inches wide.
"I'm seriously impressed with this mini projector," said one shopper. "We set it up in just a couple of minutes, and it was super easy to connect. The picture quality is so good, and the sound is surprisingly loud and clear. Even without the screen, the colors and sharpness look amazing just [projected onto] a plain wall… We've been using it for family movie nights and watching cartoons with my child, and it feels like a real mini home theater. Totally worth it for the price."
"I couldn't be happier with its performance," another reviewer wrote. "The picture quality is surprisingly sharp for such a compact device, and the brightness is impressive even in a dimly lit room. Setup was a breeze, and it works seamlessly with my Firestick — just plug it into the HDMI port, and you're good to go…It's lightweight and portable, making it perfect for movie nights, presentations, or even outdoor use."
