In recent years, there have been more and more intelligent projection products. As a new member of users' family entertainment, intelligent projection has been welcomed by users with its advantages of intelligent functions, compact mobile portability and so on. It once became the biggest rival to TV for users' living room. However, in the current smart projection market, there are really not many products that can compete with TV sets in the real sense, because of no other reason, and the brightness is not enough. The brightness problem has become the biggest obstacle to the development of intelligent projection products. From 200 lumens at the beginning to more than 700 lumens at present, the lumen of intelligent projection has been hovering below 1000 yuan. However, recently, Kuletv launched a product with brightness of 1200 lumens, Kuletv S3, which completely broke the weak point of insufficient brightness of intelligent projection and pushed intelligent projection products to a new stage of development.

The projector that can also be seen in the daytime is the product I share with you today, S3 intelligent projection from Kuletv. Thanks to Lei Feng for offering trial products.

Simple design of open case black package

Cool LeEco S3 intelligent projection uses black hard paper packaging box, simple design style.

The inside of the box is designed in layers and grids. Last time, there was a Kuletv S3 intelligent projection, a manual and a product FAQ. The lower layer is the accessories area, with power adapter, remote control and two No. 7 batteries.

All accessories in the accessory area are packed separately.

The appearance is calm and atmospheric

Although I have tried several intelligent projection products before, I was still shocked by the size of the S3 intelligent projection of Kuletv. The dimensions of the three dimensions of the Kuletv S3 intelligent projection are 225 * 225 * 53mm, and the weight is 2.1kg. Although it is a little big, the weight is well controlled, and it doesn't feel particularly heavy to carry.

The color of the product is black. The shape of the cube is designed. The top of the product is a mirror panel cover with 2. D curved surface effect. The black panel has been highlighted, which is very beautiful. However, the shortcomings are also very obvious, that is, it is easy to get fingerprints.

In the middle of the top panel of the product is a circular logo of Kuletv, but this is also the gesture control area of this product. If you look carefully, you will find that there is something similar to a chip in this circular logo area. In addition to remote control and WeChat control, Kuletv S3 intelligent projection also supports gesture control. Put your palm on the top of the round logo, and you can control the direction by sliding up, down, left and right. Press your palm down to confirm, and circle 360 degrees to return.

Before gesture manipulation, I experienced the projection product of Shenhua, but Shenhua projection is achieved by using the magic pen of the remote control, and Kuletv operates directly from the air with the palm of the hand. It should be said that this function of Kuletv is more scientific and technological, but compared with the touch operation of Shenhua, the single function of Kuletv is its biggest disadvantage.

The Kuletv S3 intelligent projection uses an aluminum titanium alloy metal mesh frame, which increases the texture of the product as well as the strength of the product. And the design of the metal mesh middle frame can ensure good heat dissipation during the use of the product.

The power on mode of this product is the same as that of the polar meter projection. It adopts the push-pull lens design, which is popular with users, simple to operate, and can also ensure the cleanness of the projector lens.

In front of the product, there is also the words of HP Hi Vi. Kuletv S3 Smart Projection cooperated with Huiwei Hi Vi to customize a double speaker unit, which has improved the quality of the product's audio,. Previously, when using projection products, they were connected to Bluetooth audio to improve the sound effect. The sound quality has been greatly improved through the in-depth cooperation between Kuletv S3 intelligent projection and Huiwei, and the effect in the experience is really amazing.

The type of interface is also an important indicator of a projection product. In terms of the interface, the Kuletv S3 intelligent projection can be said to take into account the needs of all aspects. There are two HDMI interfaces, two USB interfaces, one mini AV interface, one DTMB interface, one power interface, one 3.5mm headphone output interface (coaxial digital audio output interface), and one RJ45 network interface. The richness of interfaces allows users to have more usage scenarios.

Compared with LCD TV, one of the disadvantages of the projector product is that it must be connected to the Internet to watch programs. The Kuletv S3 smart projection adds a DTMB interface, which can be used with the DTMB antenna to watch digital high-definition TV without the network. This is also a major reason why this product can compete with the LCD power supply.

There is one anti slip screw in each of the four corners at the bottom of the product, and this screw can be removed and replaced. By replacing different screws, the height of the projector can be adjusted. There is a threaded hole in the middle. If you have a tripod in your home, you can fix the Cool Music S3 intelligent projection on the tripod for viewing.

The problem of heat dissipation is also a concern of users. In addition to the design of heat dissipation holes in the metal mesh middle frame, there is also a heat dissipation air inlet at the bottom of the Cool Music S3 intelligent projection. Together with the heat dissipation air outlet on the back of the product, the heat dissipation effect of the product is improved. It was found in the actual experience that the heat dissipation of the product is mainly concentrated in the rear part of the product. After a long time of use, the temperature is still a little hot.

There are power adapter, data cable and remote control in the accessories. This power adapter is really large. The blue indicator light on the Hangjia brand is also very beautiful.

In terms of remote control, it is a 14 button remote control, powered by two No. 7 batteries. Different from our common network box and intelligent projection remote control, this remote control has two buttons, F+and F -, which are two buttons for manually adjusting the focus of the projector. In addition, this remote control integrates infrared remote control, Bluetooth remote control and voice remote control. The front material has been sanded, and the back has an arc design that fits the user's palm. The feel and buttons are very good.

From the above, we can see that there are many outstanding points in the appearance of Kuletv S3 intelligent projection. The brand logo of the top panel, the blue breathing light, has excellent visual effect at night, rich interface types, push-pull boot mode, rich heat dissipation design, etc. The overall impression of this product is simple, simple design, simple boot mode, As well as the simple UI system behind it, it does not incorporate too many design elements. Compared with the gorgeous and colorful design of some intelligent projections at present, it gives a feeling of returning to nature.

The UI system is simple, perfect and quick

The UI system can be said to be the soul of the product, whether it is a mobile phone, TV, network box or the intelligent projection we experience today. Good UI system interface design is beautiful, fresh and natural, and the interaction mode is simple, reducing the complexity of user operation.. The Kuletv S3 intelligent projection UI system gives me the impression that it is extremely simple. This is also the simplest UI system I have ever used.

Kuletv S3 intelligent projection adopts the deep customized KuOS system based on Android 4.4 system. The main interface of the system has four modules, namely video, music, office and application. In addition, there is a row of application shortcut settings at the bottom of the main interface. Users can put their commonly used applications on the main interface for easy opening. However, it seems that some shortcuts already on the main interface cannot be deleted. Users can only customize two main application interfaces.

First, let's take a look at the setting interface. Large icons and large fonts are very eye-catching. The setting interface can be used for network, Bluetooth, voice and other settings. In the general settings, you can set the projection mode, trapezoidal correction and projection mode.

On the video interface, Kuletv S3 intelligent projection has built-in GITV authentic resources, which are rich in resources and fast in updating. The only disadvantage is that some VIP programs can only be watched by members. However, the openness of the Android system provides various convenience for the installation of applications. The built-in application market software of Kuletv S3 intelligent projection has a wealth of applications for users to choose from. The video aggregation software such as TV Cat and micro vision listening can be used for recommended on-demand broadcast, and the aggregation software such as HDP live broadcast can be used for live broadcast.

Kuletv S3 intelligent projection cooperates with Huiwei. With such a good sound quality effect, apart from the sound effect of watching videos in cinemas, music playing is also a highlight. Seen from the music interface, the resources are quite rich. Think about how comfortable it is to lie on a cane chair with the autumn sun outside the window on the windowsill in the afternoon of autumn. The beautiful melody from the intelligent projection of Cool Music S3 is in your ear.

As an intelligent projection, Kuletv S3 intelligent projection can not only meet the needs of home entertainment, but also be no inferior in business office. It has built-in WPS office software, whether it is WORD, EXCEL or PPT PDF， Cool LeEco S3 intelligent projection can easily handle. The built-in document manager can easily read external storage devices and share resources in the network.

For the application interface, Kuletv S3 intelligent projection and the boldness market cooperation, but I personally recommend the Dangbei market, which is very rich in content. The key is that in addition to downloading various software, it can also manage software, remove garbage and other functions.

1000 lumen projection is definitely not blowing

As a rare day on the market, LED intelligent projection products can also be seen. The brightness of Kuletv S3 intelligent projection has reached 1200 lumens, and this value is true lumens, which is different from the false lumens advertised by other projection products. The brightness has been tested by the "National Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for Digital Audio, Video and Multimedia Products" to reach 1081 ANSI lumens. The increase of brightness value brings better contrast and clarity. What's the performance? User experience is the most persuasive.

Daytime effect

The day of taking the picture happened to be a rainy day, and the light was not particularly strong. From the perspective of the brightness and contrast of the picture, the effect was poor compared with the effect at night, but it was still viewable. Compared with many projection products I have experienced before, it should be said that they have reached a new level.

Night effect

Seen from the picture, the effect at night is much better. The brightness is enough and the contrast is powerful. Even with the resolution of 800p, the picture performance is relatively brilliant. The key is that you don't feel uncomfortable when watching for a long time. The color rendition performance of Kuletv S3 intelligent projection is also relatively excellent. Let's look at the contrast between the projection picture and the original picture.

High experience of hardware configuration

Kuletv S3 intelligent projection adopts 64 bit 4-core A53 processor, Mali-T720 3D image engine, theater level color adjustment system, Android 4.4 system, 1+16G memory combination, 2.4GHz and 5GHz dual WiFi, resolution of 1280 * 800, support for auto focusing, electric focusing, support for 4K.3D, 1.2 times transmittance, and projection of 300 inch large screen only requires 2.65 meters.

Kuletv S3 intelligent projection adopts auto focusing and dynamic real-time focusing technology. I have experienced the advantages of auto focusing on Shenhua's projection products, which is really much more convenient than manual focusing. From the experience, the auto focusing accuracy of this intelligent projection is good, and there is almost no phenomenon of virtual focus. And when moving the projector, the dynamic real-time focusing technology will focus quickly.

Video playback

My home uses mobile 12 megaband broadband, and the projector uses WiFi. The projector is about 5 meters away from the router, and there is no wall barrier in the middle. To test the effect of online video playback, I use GITV video software and micro audio-visual video aggregation software. From the test results, whether it is on-demand or live broadcast, Cool Music S3 intelligent projection can easily handle, with beautiful pictures and smooth playback.

Play locally

Kuletv S3 intelligent projection supports 4K/H.265 video decoding and playback. I tested 1080P 4K video. According to the test, the Kuletv S3 intelligent projection has no pressure when playing 1080p video. It plays smoothly, with beautiful pictures, and fast forward and backward buffering. However, using the built-in player and Xiaobai player to play 4K video, it is found that several 4K videos tested have sound but no image.

Multi screen interaction

Multi screen interaction is a feature that many users prefer. It can project the content on mobile phones and tablets to a larger projection screen. However, the Kuletv S3 smart projection can also project the computer content in the same WiFi environment to the screen, which is particularly suitable for business conference presentations.

In addition to forward projection and multiple projection, Kuletv S3 Smart Projection also created a unique wall projection. By purchasing a special reflector, it can directly hang the head audio and video on the wall for use, which saves space and is beautiful.

Summary: I recommend this intelligent projection

At present, there are many functional projection products on the market. Many users will find it difficult to choose different designs, functions, and prices. In fact, before choosing projection, you should first understand your own needs. What is the focus of buying projection products? Whether to focus on office work or entertainment, and whether to focus on portability or steadiness. However, no matter what kind of projection product you choose, the brightness is the key. In this regard, I would like to recommend the Kuletv S3 intelligent projection, which can not only be used for entertainment, but also for business work. In addition, it is relatively small and portable compared with the large business projection. The key is that the operation is simple, the brightness is sufficient, and the effect is good. With a 300 inch screen, you can see what you want. Of course, there are some areas that need to be improved in terms of noise control, heat dissipation control and quality control.
