Most of us first saw the projector in the school classroom, but the projector in the classroom left us a bad impression. It is bulky and slow to respond. It needs to be warmed up before use. However, with the vigorous development of smart TV, smart projectors have also begun to change the impression of traditional projectors that they are cumbersome and difficult to use, and appear around us with a new look. Today's WeWhale Smart Projection K1 is the latest smart projector released by WeWhale, which is more distinctive than other manufacturers' smart projectors. It not only carries an intelligent system and rich movie resources, but also has a built-in battery, which can be used on the move; It is also the industry's first 1-second auto focus, which is more intelligent; In addition, the built-in HiFi level speaker can not only be used as a projector speaker, but also as a separate Bluetooth speaker, which is very powerful. Let many people like me who want to have a large screen movie experience, but find TV too troublesome, find a new continent.

Micro whale brand

Because Microwhale is a new brand established only 15 years ago, many people should be familiar with it like me, so it is necessary to introduce it. Although it has been established for a short time, since its inception, its company has focused on home entertainment. So the main product now is this newly released intelligent projector, in addition to TV. There are few products, but they are very focused, which also makes me more fond of its products. After all, in this fast-paced era, it is hard to focus on your own field to make products. And like LeEco, the focus on ecology can quickly accumulate attention, but Microwhale chooses to focus on works, which reduces media exposure but increases user trust.

Appearance design: unique and unique

The outer package of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is very simple but strong. The entire outer package is like a large mobile phone box. The matte black material appears low-key but very textured. There are few text messages on the whole box. Except for the SMART PROJECTOR K1 "(intelligent projector K1) printed on the front, there is only the whale logo of Microwhale on the top and side, which is very simple.

The whole packaging box is designed carefully for express transportation. In addition to high-density EVA foam box protection, there are also some hard supports to fix the machine, so that the machine and various accessories can be better fixed in the packaging box. In terms of accessories, in addition to the projector body, Microwhale Smart Projection K1 also has a charger, remote controller, manual and warranty card.

The design of Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 is very distinctive, and it was also designed by the Red Dot winning team. The whole shape is a parallelogram with a 20 ° tilt on the side. Compared with the regular design of ordinary projectors, Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 appears very unique and distinctive. In terms of color selection, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 has chosen a more eye-catching space gray, which can meet the needs of more family environments. In addition to the unique shape, another feature of the design of Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 is that there is no screw mark on the appearance of the whole machine. This design makes the Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 very integrated and has a higher appearance. As a portable intelligent projector, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is also very small. Its three dimensions are 212 x 112.9x 54m, and its net weight is 1KG. It is light enough to carry, even when carried in a bag.

The design of the front panel of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is very unique. It uses an aluminum CD pattern panel design, which is very beautiful under the irradiation of light. The optical mechanical lens is located in the middle of the front panel, which is also a rare design in the projector, and is also a major design feature of Microwhale Smart Projection K1. At the same time, Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 uses Corning high transmittance coated glass, which can better reduce the loss of light source and bring better projection effect. On the left side of the optical lens is the "eye" of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1, which can achieve 1 second auto focus. This is a 5 million pixel camera. Through it, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 has become the industry's first intelligent projector with 1 second auto focus function, which makes it feel better to use.  

The interfaces of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 are all located on the back, mainly including a USB3.0 interface, an HDMI2.0 interface, a DC power interface and an Audio interface. There are not many interfaces, but the mainstream functions can be met. At the same time, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is very personalized in the design of the interface. Tap the Micro Whale LOGO on the top, and the ring LED lights around the interface will light up for convenient use at night. Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is equipped with two 1.7 inch 8W unit loudspeakers, which are also located on the back of the machine body, and can be seen through the holes of the loudspeaker mesh plate. This configuration also enables Microwhale Smart Projection K1 not only to play its own sound source, but also to be used independently as a Bluetooth speaker of other devices.  

The keys of Microwhale Smart Projection K1 are all located on the top of the body. From left to right, there are switch button, mute button and speaker button. Each key has an indicator light. The front of the top is the volume chute of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1, which can adjust the volume by sliding your fingers. However, with the remote control and mobile phone assistant, the keys on Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 are less used.

The two sides of the micro whale intelligent projection K1 are the areas where its cooling holes are located, which also ensures that the temperature of the micro whale intelligent projection K1 is low when it works. In the bottom design, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is mainly a layer of silicone pad with large damping and various information of the intelligent projector written on it. However, there is no tripod interface, which is also a pity. The official explanation is that the converter can support the lifting and support, which can make up for the regret that the support cannot be installed directly.  

The appearance design of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is very unique, which is highly recognized among many projectors, unique and personalized. The aluminum CD pattern+lens centered design on the front panel is also a major feature of Microwhale Smart Projection K1, making it unique. In any case, the design conducted by the Red Dot design team is indeed very personalized, with a high face value. In terms of the appearance design, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is trustworthy.

Control: remote control+voice+mobile assistant, easy to use

The design of the remote controller attached to Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is the same as that of the current mainstream minimalist remote controller. Only the mainstream buttons make it easier to use. It also abandons the traditional remote control using infrared connection, and uses Bluetooth 4.1 connection. It can not only control without facing the TV, but also use a longer distance, which can support an effective distance of up to 10 meters.  

The remote control of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 also supports voice control. Long press the voice button on the upper right corner of the remote control to open the voice control function. You can not only use the voice function to find the desired movie source, but also accurately control the fast forward/fast backward time. Compared with pressing the down key directly to fast forward, voice control is much more convenient. Moreover, Microwhale speech recognition not only cooperates with iFLYTEK, but also deeply optimizes users' usage habits, with high recognition rate and good experience.  

As a smart projector, Microwhale Smart Projection K1 also supports mobile assistant control. The mobile assistant interface of Microwhale Smart Projection K1 is very simple, just like its remote control. At the same time, it also supports the installation of applications on the mobile assistant. Some applications not available in the projector's own app store can be installed directly on the mobile assistant. When the projector is used to launch a movie or TV series, it is very convenient to know the ratings, comments and starring information of the film on the mobile assistant. When necessary, you can also project pictures, videos and music from your phone to the projector. Think about how beautiful it is when you go out and take many photos with your girlfriend, and then you can enjoy them on the sofa through this big screen when you get home. Of course, if you are with the elderly and share photos with them through the large screen, it will certainly enhance their feelings and let them feel the warmth brought by technology.

The remote control of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is simple in design and convenient in use. In addition to intelligent and fast recognition voice remote control and mobile phone assistant, Microwhale Smart Projection K1 has many control modes, which are practical and more convenient.

Viewing experience: 1 second auto focus, 4K decoding+large screen display, more comfortable watching video

Traditional projectors not only need to be preheated when starting up, but also need to manually adjust the focusing ring for focusing. The operation is troublesome, not intelligent enough, and the experience is not good. What's worse, if you accidentally move the projector, you have to manually adjust the focus again. However, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 can solve these pain points very well. It is equipped with a 5 million pixel front camera near the optical lens, which can achieve automatic focusing for one second. When you start up, you can automatically focus to make the picture clear. Even if you accidentally encounter the projector in the use process, it will automatically focus immediately, bringing a clear picture. The use experience is excellent. At the same time, in addition to auto focusing, it will also automatically perform trapezoidal correction according to the picture you project, bringing a positive picture. It can be applied to more scenes, whether in the living room, bedroom or office, and can be used easily, but also play with many creative things. For young people, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is not only easy to use, but also fun.  

Micro Whale Intelligent Projection K1 is light in size and can focus automatically for 1 second. The traditional projection uses sliding wheel or remote control for adjustment. The disadvantage of manual adjustment is that it is error and time-consuming. Micro Whale Projection K1's fully automatic 1 second focusing saves time and effort. No matter where you go, you don't need to focus every time. In addition, the use time of the built-in battery is 4h, which makes it convenient to go out for portable use. The micro whale intelligent projection K1 can be used outdoors and at the seaside to bring high-definition large screen visual enjoyment. Moreover, it has the brightness of 280ANSI lumens and 22 image quality enhancement technologies. As long as the ambient light is not too bright, you can experience the immersion like a cinema, and the picture is comfortable and not dazzling. The best viewing size of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is 40-180 inches, and the projection ratio is only 1.12, which makes the distance required by Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 shorter under the same projection size, and more suitable for the use of small spaces. The house is small, and there is no need to be afraid of not having a big screen to enjoy.

Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is also a mainstream configuration at present. It uses Hisense 64 bit CPU, 4-core GPU, 1G memory, 8GB flash memory, and H265 4K video hard decoding. Compared with the previous generation, it saves 50% of broadband, making the online 4K experience more smooth. I also tested its decoding ability, and selected 4K videos in different formats of MP4, mkv, and AVI. Microwhale Smart Projection K1 can play smoothly, with excellent decoding ability.

First, let's take a look at the test effect of this 4K food clip that you are familiar with. The whole video plays smoothly and the effect is excellent. The color restoration and saturation performance are in place. In addition to the visual experience brought by the large projection screen, the effect is much better than my 27 inch display.

These two videos are Mourinho's Real Madrid documentary and Cai Yan's MV, both of which are 4K high-definition video sources. The playback effect of Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is also amazing. The color saturation is high, and the light and dark contrast is obvious, making the video look very impressive. This kind of visual experience is only available for high-definition video enlarged screen.

Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 has a better playback experience because of the addition of 1-second fast auto focus; The excellent 4K decoding ability and good display effect make its viewing experience really good. Whether used at home or outdoors, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 can well experience its advantages and bring good viewing experience.

Sound quality: HiFi level speaker+built-in network radio, also can be used as Bluetooth speaker

It adopts a special sound basin pulp formula and a fully enclosed box design, and is equipped with the unique dynamic EQ compensation technology of Micro Whale, which can achieve a vivid three-dimensional surround sound effect and bring HiFi level audio quality enjoyment. It not only ensures that the Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 can be used independently without external sound playing equipment, but also has good sound quality. It can bring good sound experience whether listening to music or watching videos. At the same time, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 can also be linked to the Bluetooth of mobile phones and other devices, so that it can be used as a Bluetooth speaker with more diversified functions.

When you don't need a projector to play video, you can switch to the speaker mode. Microwhale Smart Projection K1 is built with most of the mainstream network radio stations, including Xiami Music, Douban FM, Himalayan Radio, Dragonfly FM, and Koala FM, which are very rich in content. When you switch to speaker mode and connect to the Internet, Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 will automatically play the music of Xiami Music Radio. You can also use the remote control to press the button to collect the music you like. It also supports music screensaver, so that when the projector does not play video, it can also be used as a music player to bring us music enjoyment.  

System and content resources: flat design, rich resources

Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 is equipped with its own unique WUI system, which is also used on Micro Whale TV. In design, it is a mainstream waterfall design, with simple and beautiful visual effects, and makes it more convenient and direct when using the remote control. Moreover, the whole system is well optimized and the experience is very smooth. The navigation bar on the left side of the main interface is divided into five parts: My Projection, Wonderful Recommendation, Classification, Application and Settings. The right side is the detailed information of the classification, which is concise and clear. In addition, WUI also supports personalized customization, which can not only pursue dramas, movies, but also star trends. Turn on the projector to display your favorite content, so that you can pursue more happily.

As an intelligent projector, it is also important whether the content of its system is rich. As the same system as Micro Whale TV, WUI is also very rich in built-in video resources. It not only cooperates with Tencent Video, Mango TV, BBC, TVB, etc., but also adds content unique to Chinese culture. Take movies for example, Microwhale not only has 10000+movies now, but also updates them at the rate of 1000+every year, which is very timely. In the first half of 2016, the coverage rate of the top 20 films at the box office was 70%, with 14 films; In the first half of 2016, the coverage rate of the top 20 variety shows reached 85%, with 17 programs; In 2016, the coverage rate of the top 20 hit dramas broadcast online was 90%, with 18; The update speed is very fast.

The WUI system also has two good details. It will intelligently recommend similar movies based on the movies you see, and it is more convenient to find similar movie sources. At the same time, WUI is also connected to the Douban rating and comment system. Before playing, you can also check the Douban rating and netizens' comments, and then decide whether to watch it or not.

In terms of sports content that male compatriots pay most attention to, WUI is also further enriching its own content. Now there are China National Team, China Super League, World Club Cup, China University Football League CBA、 The live broadcast of the Bundesliga, Champions League and other matches also supports scheduled broadcast. Users will be automatically reminded when they arrive. It's really great to watch the ball on the big screen.

You can also download some applications from your mobile phone through the mobile assistant and install them on the WeWhale Smart Projection K1. In addition, it has many built-in children's learning videos and software, which can let children learn in videos and games. It is also targeted content and resources for children, so that they can adapt to the needs of people of different ages.

Because the founders of Microwhale were born from the traditional media industry, they also have some characteristics in content. In addition to the traditional content partition, they also have the content section produced by Microwhale itself and the VR section with rich panoramic VR content, including the latest Chinese new songs, heroes of the world For panoramic videos such as SNH48, users can view 360 degree panoramic content of the performance scene through remote control adjustment, making its content resources different and more attractive.

Although Micro Whale Smart Projection K1 has few interfaces, in addition to being able to connect the laptop projection computer screen through the high-definition interface, it also supports USB to expand local content, and with its powerful decoding capability and built-in WPS, it performs beautifully both in entertainment and work.

It has a built-in WPS. Through the WPS on the mobile phone, you can directly scan the code to put the documents in the mobile phone on the projector. Whether it is word, excel, PPT or PDF, it can be perfectly projected, convenient and practical.

In particular, when projecting PPT, the mobile phone can be directly controlled as a remote controller, and can also replace the traditional laser pen, which is very convenient.
