- Q: Can I connect my device via a wired connection for screen mirroring?
- A: Yes, in addition to wireless screen mirroring, you can connect your iPhone or Android device using an appropriate HDMI adapter (not included) and an HDMI cable.
- Q: Is this projector suitable for office presentations (PPT/text)?
- A: While the projector can display text, it is primarily designed as an entertainment projector for home theater, gaming, and casual use. It is not recommended as a professional office projector for detailed PPT or text-heavy presentations in brightly lit rooms.
