Thinking of the next perfect date idea? Looking for a fun activity to bond with the family? Here are three words for you: outdoor movie nights.
Outdoor activities like hiking and camping have been the trend these days. There’s nothing more therapeutic than bonding with the special people in your life, while enjoying the peace and tranquility of nature.
But if you don’t want to travel far, you can have a similar experience by setting up in your backyard or any large open area in your home or a friend’s house. All you need are company, folding chairs, and maybe a drink or two and some snacks.
Or, add one element to make your chill nightout more enjoyable: a portable, easy-to-setup projector that’s perfect for outdoor movie nights — a major step up from your usual livingroom activity. It’s so easy to set up all you need is an equally portable retractable screen for an outdoor setup, or a basic white wall for indoor entertainment.
Whether it’s for watching scary movies while camping, or having a chill night picnic with friends binge watching classic TV shows, you really can’t go wrong with a good, reputable portable projector.
Easily one of the best, most versatile projectors you can get for this purpose is the Epson CO-FH02 Smart Projector. And today, we’ll show you why it’s the one to get.
3,000 lumens for high clarity, large 391-inch display
Picture clarity can be a worry when getting a projector, but not on this one. The Epson CO-FH02 offers brightness of 3,000 lumens with a Full HD resolution, so movies and TV shows look clear and bright.
Since it’s a projector, it has a display size bigger than most TVs today. In fact, it has a whopping 120-inch standard display size from 3 meters away.
If that’s not big enough for you, don’t worry, as this machine is incredibly flexible. It’s so flexible it can project up to a whopping 391-inch display. It’s really like a full theatre experience you can take anywhere, whether you’re using a projector screen or a large, bare white wall.
Easy-to-carry, setup-friendly portable design
Unlike most projectors, the Epson CO-FH02 has an incredibly compact design that you can easily carry around with your bare hands, inside a backpack, or a vacation bag. It’s almost just as wide as a gaming laptop and about as heavy at 2.6kg.
Thanks to its built-in smart features, there’s no need to carry any external video source or accessories. All you need to pack is the projector itself, the user-friendly remote, power cord, and you’re good to go.
You can also carry a beefier wireless speaker for better sound quality. But in case you left it at home, don’t worry, as it does come with a 5W speaker inside. This means you can easily bring your projector on your next adventure or hangout sesh with friends.
Stream and access all content with Android TV and Chromecast
No, you don’t need to carry a laptop just to power this thing. The Epson CO-FH02 has a built-in Chromecast, so you can easily cast whatever content you have on your phone.
In addition, it has a bundled Android TV Dongle attached to the back. Similar to modern Smart TVs today, having Android TV means you have access to tons of content available from almost all streaming platforms in the market.
That includes Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Prime Video, Spotify, and more. Epson designed the CO-FH02 to be a great home entertainment device — whether you’re enjoying movies with family or having a fun videoke night with friends.
But if you have your own media player, you can plug it through the HDMI port on the back. You can also use it for presentations or, better yet, have a more immersive gaming experience by plugging your PlayStation, Xbox, or gaming PC. Epson definitely wants you to use your personal projector in any way you want.
A lasting, eco-friendly longevity
Epson is one of the biggest names in the industry, so don’t be surprised if the CO-FH02 projector can last you for a very long time — making sure you get all your money’s worth, and more.
It uses a long-lasting lamp that lasts up to 12,000 hours using Eco mode, even if you watch a film every day. The projector also has an ECO mode, which drops the power consumption as much as 29% — making the CO-FH02 the eco-friendly choice.
But in case you’re having issues, no need to worry, as the CO-FH02’s lamp comes with 2 years of warranty.
Spice up your next movie and binge-watching sessions with friends, family, and special someone with the Epson CO-FH02 — a projector that’s easy to carry and setup, has good picture quality, access to all the content you want, and more importantly, a projector that could last you for almost two decades.
The Epson CO-FH02 is available in the Philippines for a price of Php38,000.
