Toy Box: Mobile projectors

These little wonders play films or display photos on the move. And with 3-D and wireless control by tablets also available, there’s a lot to weigh up before putting yourself in the big picture.

Is this the pocket-sized projector you've been waiting for? Measuring a mere 72x72x57mm and weighing just 310g, the PicoPix (HK$3,380) has been created for laptops; just attach it via USB to feed it both power and pictures. Capable of creating a maximum HD image of 120-inches (although 80-inch and below look best), the LEDs in the PicoPix are just about bright enough for viewing photos, although it works best in gloomy conditions.
