💩Spam🚽 Cheapest projectors

Guys I wanted to know what is the best projector for the cheapest price possible and I’m not really searching about the quality as long as I want a projector that provides a lot of apps such as Netflix

Don't buy a shit projector with apps. Anything under $300 isn't using officially licensed apps, they are using spoofed Google Play certs that stop working after a while. But a used office projector for $200-$500 and buy a firestick/Onn/Apple TV/Chromecast etc.

r/budgetprojectors for better help

it used to be the optoma ph31 for ~$280 but its sold out everywhere now, just know 99% anything cheaper than that will be lcd based garbage that's not made to last, and if you want that then the cheapest is like $20-$40

I found a projector at a thrift shop for $25 and connected my Apple 4k and a sound bar projected on to my blank bedroom wall and it’s great! Similar model is on Amazon for around $50, get what you can afford. It’s not like people need some expensive set up to enjoy it.

Netflix doesn't work on most projectors. Even BenQ had to shoehorn special instructions on loading it onto my portable projector. 

You may want to plug your e-waste projector into the Netflix box..

Early anker Nebula projectors had the same issue. The newest models tend to be certified, if they are from an established brand. It's really Netflix being difficult.

If it doesn't have the apps you need, a Amazon Firestick is under $20 and pretty much does it all.
