Wanbo T6 Max Android Projector Review

[darioh]

is correct. The image settings are available in the right Settings page. Yes, I am very satisfied with the projector. I don't use the built-in Android 9. I only use the projector via the connected Amazon Firestick 4k Max. The image and sound are therefore the maximum via the projector. I activated HDMI 2.0 in the right settings. Yesterday I watched a 4k nature film via Netflix. The picture quality was amazing! I have sound on the soundbar via bluetooth. 100% lip sync. Projector is on a small shelf on the wall behind the sofa. The distance to the screen is approx. 3.8 meters.

Hi! I am using chromecast 4.0 4k. Android 9 built into the projector is very weak. What does it mean that you have activated HDMI 2.0? How to do it? Will I then be able to watch uhd quality programs from chromecast? I am also happy with the projector. In a dark room, the picture and colors are great! You intrigued me that with Amazon firestick you can watch Netflix 4k. Please write how you did it... because I can only watch 4k with chromecast.

I wanted to write that only YouTube can be watched in 4k quality from a chromecast through a projector. I have Netflix, Amazon, HBO only in FHD quality. That's why I'm very curious how to do it to have higher quality

I'm attaching some pictures. Here you can see in the settings where to turn on HDMI 2.0 for HDMI 1 where my Firestick is plugged in. Pictures are unfortunately a bit light because the room is not darkened.

Thank you very much! When I get home I'll play around with the settings )) I project the image on a brown wall and I find it surprisingly good especially when the room is dark. My picture on the wall is about 90 inches diagonal

I always thought you needed a white background for a projector. I am surprised by the beautiful picture on the brown background.

I was surprised too, but as you can see, a dark background works well. I've read articles about dark and black projector screens. Some recommend only such a solution. The projector itself does not display black color .... therefore there is a good contrast on a dark background. The basic thing is good projector brightness. Our 650 ansilumen can do it

Hi! I have one more quick question....these HDMI 2.0 changes apply to the Amazon Firestick? Because I can't find it in the projector menu. Regards

yes, this is for the Firestick or other sticks plugged into HDMI 1. When you are on the Firestick start page, you can use the projector remote control to open the menu using the round button on the top right. The menu is only available for the input sources " HDMI1 and AV1. This is not possible on the projector start page.

Regards skysat

Addendum:
in order to get to this menu, nothing needs to be connected to the input sources HDMI1 or AV1.

Hi! Thank you for your help. I found the menu you wrote about, changed the HDMI to 2.0 .... the picture is really beautiful now!! I have one more small problem... it's about a small (about 0.5 second) sound delay. I've tried to change it in different sound options, but so far no effect. Do you know how it can be corrected?

I will also say that I got the original Wanbo tripod for this projector from Aliexpress and it works really well, you can precisely set it against the wall on which I am displaying.
Regards

I just switched audio from the Firestick to my soundbar via Bluetooth. The audio is 100% in sync. I don't use anything else about the Android 9 from the projector. Also, the general picture quality via the internet Android 9 projector system is not nearly as good as via the HDMI1 source. In order to take full advantage of the quality of the projector, I can recommend everyone to look over a Firestick. I can't say anything about a Chromecast Stick because it hasn't been tested. You don't need the built-in Android 9.

I'm not using the built-in android 9 either. I'm only using a connected Chromecast 4 4k. Previously, I had a Xiaomi TV Stick 4k and I can say that the quality of operation and image is better in Chromecast. I stream audio from Chromecast via Bluetooth to my home theater receiver. Everything works fine, 5.1 surround sound ... the only thing that annoys me is the delay of sound to image about 0.5 seconds.

Hi,
I’m using T6 max projector for almost a year and half. After a software update the projection aspect ratio which we will set using the four point keystone is not maintaining if I switch off the projector completely (turn off the power source) and turn it ON.
I tried factory reset also. still observing same issue.

Can anyone help me how to solve this?

 

[darioh]

Hello! Which software version do you have? I have from February 2023 and everything works fine. The projector remembers all image settings and keystone correction even when completely disconnected from the power supply.

I have tested the remote on my mobile and it works perfectly. I don't know what to do. because I can't use it. Any solution?? thank you.

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback

I was using sep 2022 software with this issue then downloaded the feb 2023 software from xda manually updated it to see whether that could resolve the issue, but unfortunately not
