Small and easy to carry around, the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser is a great little projector for taking movies on the go. It’s loud and its laser backlight does a good job of resolving detail, handling shadows well while producing rich colours, provided the display area is dark enough. The lack of a proper Android TV version of Netflix is a little disappointing, and this projector is quite expensive. If physical size and the battery are the two most important factors, this projector is a good choice.
