3M MPro 120 Review

As this projector only has 12 ANSI Lumens, it needs to be used in a very dark room or the image needs to be kept small, which defeats the object of using a projector. If you can overcome the lighting issues though, the pictures displayed are quite good. MacWorld comment on the lack of controls, with only the brightness and sound function buttons, and a button to display battery life.

"The 3M MPro120 is a solid performer with excellent image quality, outstanding battery life, and easy-to-use features."

"We like: Integrated flip stand; included tripod; two integrated half-watt speakers; quiet operation; rechargeable battery delivers up to 4 hours of battery life; LED light source is rated at 20,000 hours; protective carrying case included, along with adaptors for hooking up a computer.
We don't like: Adaptor cable for video-capable iPods and iPhones is an optional accessory; picture isn't terribly bright, particularly when you expand the image size."

"When judged against the low expectations of pico projectors, the 3M MPro 120 isn't bad. However, it really isn't bright enough for projecting at larger sizes and it should include an adapter for Apple iPods and iPhones..."

"Pros: Remarkably small, pocket-friendly size. Cool, tactile design. Decent battery life. Good array of connectivity.
Cons: Picture severely lacking in brightness. Barely functional audio."

“We don’t expect much from pocket projectors. That’s the reason why we think the MPro120 from 3M is a pretty decent model. When the screen size is small you can still recognise something of the image. But if you set the screen to maximum size you can make out next to nothing, as usual. An adapter cable for iPods and iPhones is also lacking in the scope of delivery.”
