Pico projectors aren't really new anymore, and that's ok because they are still highly popular pieces of equipment. However, despite their commonality, finding a Pico projector with an HDMI input is still pretty rare. However, MicroVision's latest device is taking the SHOWWX+ from last year and adding an HDMI input and creating the MicroVision SHOWWX+ HDMI, the most perfect device to have for easy hook-ups with your laptop or tablet PC.
The device measures in at 2.3 x 4.6 x 0.55mm and uses a laser projection system. What that means is that absolutely no focusing is necessary. All you have to do is point it at a wall and you get up to a 100" display. The MicroVision SHOWWX+ HDMI also has a 848 x 480 resolution which won't treat your HD movies too well but should be enough for some quality YouTube videos. Brightness ranks at 15 lumens with the contrast ratio coming in at 5,000:1. In addition to that, the HDMI input is HDCP compliant for protected sources.
Aside from the HDMI, this device has your usual component input for use with a standard television output from a laptop, DVD player or iPod. You can also hook it up to a VGA connection if you have the right hookups though that probably won't be necessary since many laptops have HDMI already these days. The battery, which is user replaceable, is also good for around two hours of use.
If you are looking for a good Pico projector for your laptop or tablet PC, the MicroVision SHOWWX+ HDMI is the device for you. You can pre-order the MicroVision SHOWWX+ HDMI projector now and pick it up when the device is expected to ship soon. Price is slated at $369.
