As revealed exclusively on Sky News Weekend Edition on Sunday, the world’s smallest Google TV projector is now available in Australia and New Zealand. The Nebula Capsule Air is a 720p battery powered projector selling for around A$799.
If you can call any projector cute, then this is the one. It’s only 140mm tall and 650 gram. It is tiny but extremely well built like all of Anker’s Nebula projectors. You’ll get up to 2 hours of playtime thanks to its 10,000 mAh battery (34Wh). It’s charged via USB-C and a PD-equipped power bank will be good enough to do the job.
Now, let’s be clear. This is is a small LED projector so don’t expect a great performance during daylight hours. It’s useable but it’s best to use in darker areas like most projectors. Nebula is upfront about this – massive tick! – as the output is 150 ANSI lumens. Despite its small size the resulting image is quite large, up to a 254cm.
There’s also an HDMI port for watching content from other devices.
EXTRAS
Snap-On Base: The included Snap-On Base, can magnetically snap on or off from the projector’s base while ensuring more dynamic usage scenarios with its ability to tilt from 0-30° when sitting on the floor or desk and 0-90° when mounted to the wall. When the Snap-On Base is attached, the Capsule Air can easily be mounted to the bookshelf in a study room, to the wall in a bedroom or kitchen, and even in tight spaces in an RV for the ultimate flexibility. As an added use case, the Capsule Air can help content creators project their subject onto a surface from above or from the side and emulate them while working. Parents and kid chefs can even mount the Snap-On Base from a cabinet to help them follow along with how-to cooking videos while making dinner.
Gimbal Stand: Coming July, the Gimbal Stand can be easily mounted onto the Capsule Air and allows for 360° angle adjustment to match different viewing scenarios, whether watching a movie from the coffee table in the living room or watching cartoons together in a kid’s bedroom from the night stand.
Power Bank Tripod: Also coming July, this 2-in-1 power bank tripod doubles the playtime of the Capsule Air, providing up to 2 hours battery life (in eco mode) with its 9600mAh battery. The tripod also increases the height of the projection point from 22cm to 80cm, and is able to tilt 0-90°, delivering the best viewing angle and allowing users to find the best surface to project onto while at home or outdoors.
The Power Bank Tripod and Gimbal Stand will be compatible with all Capsule projectors, while the Snap-On Base was exclusively designed for use with the Capsule Air.
