Mini Review : 3M MPro110 Projector

To say that the 3M MPro110 is tiny is an understatement. This minuscule projector is smaller than anything you may have seen on the market.

To put its size in perspective, it is about twice the thickness of my Nokia 6220 smartphone, weighs only 152g and measures 115mm(l) x 50mm(w) x 22mm (h).

Launched last September, the MPro110 features LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology and has a rated contrast ratio of 80:1, substantially less than traditional projectors and possibly one of its weakest points.

On a brighter side, LCoS guarantees completely silence - no noisy fans here - and up to 10,000 hours of operations.

With this pico projector however, 3M had to strike a very difficult balance between portability, performance and battery life. To keep things simple, the MPro 110 only has two controls, a focus thumb wheel which alters the sharpness of the pictures and the on/off button.
