Your first post about shopping for a project got me bored at some point while I read, I didn't conclude it anyway.
I am not impressed by ViewSonic M1+, a portable projector that was received good design award in 2021. I guess the overall design of the device is good.
When I saw the picture of the projector, I was very inclined to read the post and also became enthusiastic to read to the end until you mentioned picture quality and I perfectly understood (I'm already mad) you feelings after reading.
I've never shopped online, I've gotten another experience (yours) that would make me not want to shop online.
Hahaha, I wish you could return it.
Give it a trial...
