TCL has ventured into new territory with its Projector A1, marking its first foray into portable projectors. Known for delivering high-quality televisions, the company now brings its expertise to a device that promises flexibility and versatility. Whether indoors or outdoors, the Projector A1 transforms nearly any surface into a cinematic canvas, giving users a fresh way to enjoy their favorite content.
Compact Yet Powerful Visuals
The Projector A1 packs a punch with its Full HD 1080p resolution and 360 ISO Lumen brightness. Its advanced screen adaptation ensures automatic focus and keystone correction, so the picture stays sharp and well-aligned, even in unconventional setups. The device supports screen sizes from 45 inches to a stunning 120 inches, making it suitable for intimate settings or larger gatherings. Backed by TCL’s decades of display expertise, the projector delivers vivid colors and nuanced details, providing a satisfying viewing experience for movies, presentations, or casual streaming.
Immersive Sound Meets Smart Features
Sound quality often defines the cinematic experience, and the A1 doesn’t disappoint. With dual 8W speakers and Dolby Audio processing, it offers clear, immersive soundscapes. But the A1 is more than just a projector—it doubles as a Bluetooth speaker with a built-in light show, setting the mood for any occasion. Whether hosting a party or unwinding with music, this dual functionality makes the A1 versatile beyond just visuals.
Powered by Google TV for Seamless Entertainment
At its core, the A1 integrates Google TV, bringing thousands of apps, curated recommendations, and personalized profiles directly to the user. From live TV to streaming services, the interface centralizes entertainment, ensuring users can easily find their next watch. With the help of Google Assistant, voice commands can control content, check sports scores, or even manage connected smart devices. This blend of smart features with traditional projector functions elevates its usability, making it a well-rounded choice for tech-savvy consumers.
Designed for On-the-Go Viewing
True to its portable promise, the A1 features a sleek, user-friendly design. Its VersaGrip handle doubles as a stand, allowing for easy carrying and adjustable viewing angles. Lightweight and compact, the A1 is ideal for outdoor movie nights, on-the-road business presentations, or simply moving between rooms at home. Its portability doesn’t compromise its performance, making it a reliable companion for diverse entertainment needs.
Conclusion

Its compact design and versatility make it suitable for a variety of scenarios, from casual gatherings to professional use.
