A classic brain teaser question asks: "How many steps are there to put an elephant in the refrigerator?" The answer is hilarious: "There are three steps: the first step is to open the refrigerator door; the second step is to put the elephant in, and the third step is to bring the refrigerator door". So, how can I put IMAX cinema into my pocket? The answer is: just one step - bring your PaPa pocket cinema.

PaPa Pocket Cinema is an intelligent micro investment product launched by Beijing Xiaoxiang Fast Running Technology Co., Ltd. on Taobao crowdfunding platform in 2015. It is positioned as "the intelligent entertainment terminal for young people". With its compact body and portable design, it became the fifth largest crowdfunding project in Taobao crowdfunding history at that time, and was popular and loved by young people.

Today, let's invite our friends and editors to experience this portable, intelligent and powerful PaPa pocket cinema, which can let you enjoy the fun of IMAX cinema anytime, anywhere.

PaPa Pocket Cinema is packed in a square cardboard box. The box has considerable hardness, which can well protect the internal products. It has a white background and a red round product logo "Pa" in the middle of the front, which is very simple. The sticker "Jiguo.com's first trial user" in the upper left corner makes people feel proud.

At the bottom of the back of the box, there are various information about the product, including the packing list, product name, model, official website, customer service phone, WeChat, and a series of product feature diagrams. The amount of information is huge.

Tear off the disposable seals on both sides of the box, open the upper cover, you can see the small projector host and the accessory box beside. The internal area of the packaging box is compact and reasonable, and the host is protected by black sponge, which is very considerate.

Here is a family photo of the product: including the projector host, remote control, power adapter, instructions, data cable and the small tripod.

If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, it's really hard to imagine that a projector product can achieve an ultra small size of 100x100x25mm. The boxy body is much shorter than the small MX3 mobile phone, and the thickness is equivalent to the thickness of a dollar coin, which is why this product dares to be called a "pocket cinema". It is not easy to load complex optical components, cooling fans and batteries capable of supporting two hours of movie playing and 3300mAh capacity in such a cramped and small space.

The front of the projector is a high transmittance coated lens and an infrared sensor. It is a pity that the lens is not equipped with a protective cover. After all, if it is often put into a pocket or backpack, the lens can easily be damaged or even scratched in the daily environment.

What Xiaobian got was a white version of PaPa. The white acrylic panel with a metallic frame design had a very high appearance. In addition to the power key, the front white panel also integrated a number of function keys, all of which were operated by touch and had a light yellow backlight; "Although the sparrow is small, it has five internal organs". The back of the PaPa body is integrated with a wealth of interfaces, including audio, TF card slot, USB, Micro USB, and the Reset key for hard restart after a crash. However, the absence of HDIMI input interface is a small regret.

The central position of PaPa back is the standard interface for external tripod, the upper right is the air inlet grille arranged neatly, and there is a anti-skid pad at each corner.

On both sides of the fuselage are cooling holes, horn holes and focusing wheels. The PaPa is equipped with a Japanese SEPA silent fan, which is designed with scientific air ducts, and the heat dissipation effect is very ideal; The built-in speaker has a low volume due to unit limitation. However, the PaPa has built-in Bluetooth, which can compensate for the low volume by connecting an external Bluetooth speaker.

At the same time, the manufacturer also configured an infrared remote control for the PaPa. The body buttons adopt the mainstream 11 key layout. The same white body is powered by a CR2032 button battery. Compared with the virtual touch buttons on the body and the operation method of downloading remote control APP through mobile phones, the physical remote control is undoubtedly the best remote control method. In the actual experience, The hardness of the remote control keys is moderate, the key range feedback is good, and the operation is very convenient.

The power adapter that has passed the 3C certification is also excellent in workmanship. It has passed a circle larger than the power supply of ordinary brands, and the output current is up to 2A. In theory, it can fully charge the host in a short time, so that it can be revived with full blood.

A small tripod was also included in the product that Xiao Bian received. With this little thing, you can set up the PaPa at any time, anywhere, and adjust it to the appropriate projection angle at will. Look at the erected PaPa, do you feel cute?

The small body, rich interfaces and solid workmanship of the PaPa Pocket Cinema must have left a deep impression on all the kids. So, what is the actual experience of such a product positioned as "young people's intelligent entertainment terminal"? Is it really enough, easy to use and easy to use? Next, let's enter the testing phase of "functional application", and let's explore the truth through our own experience.

Our "function application" test link is divided into the following parts: 1. System WiFi、 Video and game testing; 2. Experience the actual projection effect; 3. Endurance and heat dissipation capacity. We hope that through these three tests, we can have a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of PaPa Pocket Cinema.

1、 System wifi、 Video and game testing

The operating system of PaPa is based on the deeply customized PaPa UI of Android 4.4. The desktop uses a metro style interface similar to Microsoft's latest WIN8 system, but it is more flat. The colorful tile icons have great visual tension. The first screen integrates common functions and applications: video, TV, games, system settings, etc; The second screen is the other applications that come with the system, and the applications installed by users are also concentrated here. The overall function division is very clear.

After entering the settings interface, you will return to the native Android interface. I believe that Android players should be very familiar with these settings.

Although PaPa is positioned as a portable micro investment product, its hardware configuration is still very powerful, The CPU is a 4-core Cortex A9 processor, plus an 8-core graphics processing engine, 1GB dual channel DDR3 RAM, and 8G high-speed flash memory, the score running result of Anthare is shown in the figure above, which is satisfactory among a large number of micro investment products. From the actual experience of the editor, I feel that the system is very smooth, and can provide good support for 1080P video playing large games.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that PaPa supports dual band WiFi. In the figure above, "CMCC HENAN" is the 5GWiFi signal for small editors, and "CMCC" is the 2.4GWiFi signal. PaPa has strong signal reception capability, especially under the 5G signal, its stability is better, which can provide better support for the smooth playing of online video. The editor tried to play 1080P high-definition video in the editor's NAS through WiFi in PaPa. In actual test, there was no jam. Even fast forward and fast rewind were very smooth, responsive and satisfactory.

The hardware configuration of PaPa is so powerful that it would be a pity not to play games. Open its built-in game application, "Grape Game Hall", and all kinds of wonderful games will come. In addition to the good support for wireless game consoles, PaPa is definitely a game weapon.

The editor downloaded and tested two large games on the Android platform, "Top Speed Car" and "Street Fighter 4". In the actual test, "Top Speed Car" could run smoothly but the sound was abnormal. "Street Fighter 4" opened and then exited on the black screen, unable to run normally. Of course, running other smaller games, such as Boxing King HD, can run perfectly without pressure.

2、 Actual projection effect display

At this point in the evaluation, we haven't seen the actual projection experience of PaPa yet. Don't worry, as the saying goes, "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Now, I will present the actual projection experience of PaPa to all the kids. You should open your eyes and watch carefully.

The above two pictures are taken by a small editor when the light in the living room is turned on (40W energy-saving light). The projection picture is about 50 inches (the small editor's projection screen is 120 inches). The content of the broadcast is the online video "Love of the Big Man". The actual effect is as shown in the figure. Even when the light is turned on, PaPaDE performance is still impressive. What about turning off the lights?

The above three pictures are the 50 inch pictures projected when the lights are completely off. The details of PaPa are very good, and the pictures are relatively transparent. Due to the frustration of the small camera, the actual effect should be better. Of course, this is not all the strength of PaPa. Now, let's cast it to the size of 100 inches and see what PaPa does?

In the above four pictures, the first one is a picture of turning on a circle of small lights in the living room (12 energy-saving lights with a power of 5W each). It can be seen that when the light is 100 inches and the ambient light is strong, the brightness of PaPa decreases significantly, and the attractiveness is greatly reduced; However, after turning off the lights (the last three pictures), its performance is quite extraordinary. After all, it is commendable that such a small micro investment product, projected to the size of 100 inches, can still have such expressiveness.

3、 Endurance and heat dissipation

The PaPa has a built-in battery with a capacity of 3300mAh. Officially, it can support the projector to play for two consecutive hours, which can basically complete a movie. In the actual experience, I found that if PaPa plays online video through WiFi, it is difficult to last for two hours, and the power consumption is fast. In addition, although the output current of PaPa's standard power adapter is up to 2A, However, in the actual charging experience, Xiaobian found that its charging efficiency was relatively ordinary. Xiaobian started charging at 8:00 a.m. (about 20% of the remaining power), and by noon when he came home from work, he had not fully charged for more than three hours.

Of course, a smaller size and more power is an irreconcilable contradiction. The small size of the PaPa makes it a headache to build a larger capacity battery. Here, I suggest that manufacturers should consider not pursuing a smaller size when developing the next generation of products. After all, a longer life can enhance the practicality of the product.

The cooling capacity of PaPa is very strong. The built-in mute fan can hardly hear noise during operation. Even if you run large games for a long time or watch online videos with WiFi, how about the overall temperature of your PaPa? The above figure is the highest PaPa temperature measured by Xiao Bian in more than ten measurements. I think that in addition to the fan, scientific design should also be an important reason for such a good heat dissipation effect. In addition, the metal frame itself has a good heat dissipation capacity, and many factors contribute to the good heat dissipation of PaPa.

The progress of science and technology is so miraculous. Who would have thought that the heavy, clumsy and huge projector products in those days could be made so smart and portable, and the 100 inch giant screen could be so small that it could be put into a pocket and carried around. As a micro investment product, The exquisite workmanship, compact body, powerful functions and good heat dissipation capability of the PaPa Pocket Cinema have left a deep impression on the editor. Although it is convenient to run, it still has some unsatisfactory aspects, and it is still a masterpiece among similar products. If you want to experience the video entertainment experience with a 100 inch giant screen, the PaPa Pocket Cinema is definitely your first choice.
