Xiaomi Redmi Projector Lite Edition arrives as new cheaper model

The Redmi Projector Lite has an LCD light source delivering up to 150 CVIA lumens brightness; it needs to be clarified precisely how this translates to an internationally recognised standard like ANSI lumens. The device features ToF automatic focus and keystone correction to perfect the image quickly. Bluetooth and dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity allow wireless screen-casting from a phone or tablet, and you can also link the projector to your Mijia smart home, adding it to scenes in the accompanying app. You can also control the gadget with voice commands, and the product has a built-in 5W speaker and Bluetooth speaker mode.

The projector has 1+16 GB storage and a range of ports, including HDMI ARC, USB-A and a 3.5mm audio jack. Relatively compact, the device measures 113 x 146 x 172.5 mm, (~4.4 x 5.7 x 6.8-in) and weighs 1.2 kg (~2.6 lbs). You can currently pre-order the Redmi Projector Lite Edition in China for 699 yuan (~$100) with a 100 yuan (~$15 deposit). When this introductory offer ends, the model is expected to retail at its RRP of 999 yuan (~$140). Whether or when the model could reach other markets remains to be seen.
