Prime Big Deal Days are finally gone, and Amazon dropped prices on thousands of must-have tech products. However, not all deals are lost. Just in time for football season, some great deals are still available on portable projectors—perfect for sports, gaming, movies, and more. Grab one of the best projectors on the market, and it'll be in your living room in time for a Halloween horror movie marathon.

Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser Deal

You’ll love how the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 projector slips into a backpack, then auto-focuses and gets you watching fast. The picture looks pleasing in a dim room and holds shadow detail in darker scenes, so movies don’t turn into mush. The speaker is punchy enough for a bedroom or patio, and the battery lets you finish a film without hunting for outlets. The Google TV interface is simple to live with. As M. David Stone puts it, “A big plus if you use Netflix is that the licensed app is already installed and works without problems in my tests." He rated it “Excellent” in his review, and you can get it for $150 off right now.

Xgimi Elfin Flip Deal

The Xgimi Elfin Flip is one of those projectors you can just plop down, power up, and instantly get a sharp image without fiddling with endless settings. Its built-in pivoting stand makes it ridiculously easy to point the picture anywhere, like the wall, ceiling, or even the floor if you’re feeling dramatic. Movies look crisp, and the sound is surprisingly full for something this small. M. David Stone calls it a "strong contender among inexpensive home entertainment projectors,” giving it an "Excellent" rating in our Xgimi Elfin Flip review. It’s now selling at a 9% discount, which makes this compact, take-anywhere projector even more tempting for home movie nights.

The Dangbei DBOX02 packs a punch if you’re chasing big-screen entertainment without any setup hassles. The picture looks rich and detailed, and the colors are saturated in both dark and light scenes. You can stream straight from Google TV or Netflix without extra gear, and the built-in sound fills a room nicely for movie nights. As M. David Stone says, it offers "a bright, good-quality image and onboard audio to match," giving it a "Good" rating in our Dangbei DBOX02 review. It’s currently selling at a hefty 46% discount, making this bright 4K projector a solid upgrade for your home viewing setup.

About Our Expert

Shubham Yewale

Shubham Yewale

I have been working as a content writer for over six years, specializing in consumer technology. Throughout my career, I have explored various areas within this niche, including cybersecurity, entertainment apps, and software products. Prior to becoming a content writer, I worked as a graphic designer. This background has been beneficial, particularly when writing how-to articles on photo editing for MakeUseOf.com. Additionally, I have contributed as an entertainment writer for Beebom.com and a cybersecurity writer for VPNCentral.com.

I excel at grasping complex concepts and presenting them in a straightforward manner, which is why many of my successful articles focus on how-tos and reviews. Outside of work, I enjoy watching movies and series, as well as reading books that offer compelling stories. I also have a passion for writing poems.

My Areas of Expertise

Photo Editing: I have been using Photoshop since childhood and find joy in editing pictures for fun.

Walkthroughs: I specialize in crafting how-to guides for various technology-related topics, from troubleshooting PC issues to enhancing images in Photoshop. The possibilities are endless.

Cybersecurity: Through my articles, I have assisted hundreds of individuals in recognizing scams by helping them identify fraudulent websites, messages, and calls. (Although I must admit, I do occasionally torrent.)

Technology I Use

I primarily work on an Asus Vivobook 15 with Windows 11, version 24H2. For my smartphone, I use a Samsung M30s because I prefer Android devices. I also enjoy reading on my Kindle and listening to music with my boAt Rockerz 255 Pro+ earbuds, which I sometimes use as earplugs to create a quiet workspace.
