Weighing only one pound, the AAXA M2 Micro Projector is a versatile and powerful projector for its size. The brilliant 110 Lumen LED light engine uses Vibrant Color technology to generate expressive color reproduction in a compact unit. It is capable of rendering a crisp 100" image on the wall and AAXA has done a good job of accessorizing it with a variety of inputs and features.

 

Applying a high-speed Liquid Crystal on Silicon microdisplay panel and powerful LED package, the M2 features an image processor that supports up to 1280 x 720 resolution video at 30 frames per second. It also supports several file formats including MP4, MP3, WMA, WAV, AVI, TXT, GIF and JPEG. The M2 receives data through five routes. Internally there is 1GB of storage as well as an SD card slot that accepts up to 16GB of storage for use without any connection. The video inputs accommodate HDMI, VGA and composite A / V with 3.5 mm mini jack. The only audio out is a stereo headphone jack and there is also a 5-pin mini USB port as well.

 

A USB memory stick can also facilitate standalone playback. The 1W speakers should suffice, but running audio out the mini jack is an option as well. While the M2 gives you an ample balance of performance and portability, there is no battery option, so an outlet must be used at all times. PSP, smartphones and iPods can all be connected to the M2 as well, but require optional cables. The M2 is powerful for its size and you will surely find several applications for its use.
