Nebula by Anker Presents a Range of Portable Projectors

Anker and its constellation of lifestyle consumer electronics brands brought in a trove of new gear to the 2024 International CES. There's a lot to cover, and we begin with Nebula, a brand focused on portable audio and projectors. The Capsule 3 is a 6-inch tall cylindrical "pocket cinema" projector that's slightly larger than a portable speaker (it encloses one, too). Besides an 8 W Dolby Digital speaker set, it included a 52 Wh battery that can offer around 2.5 hours of playtime on battery power. It takes in USB-PD, and has a type-C USB port for power. The Capsule 3 throws a 200 ANSI Lumens beam as a DLP, with its lamp rated for 30,000 hours. The projector's resolution is Full HD (1080p), and is suitable for short-range projections (within 6 ft), with automatic keystone correction. Display inputs include HDMI, and playback from USB mass-storage devices. On the software side of things, the Capsule 3 packs Google TV, so all apps from the Play Store should work here.

Next up, we have the larger Nebula Mars 3 Air, a picnic basket-sized projector with a grab handle. This may be a Full HD DLP just like thew Capsule 3, but with double the brightness, of 400 ANSI Lumens, the same 8 W Dolby Digital speakers, and a 64.8 Wh battery for up to 2.5 hours of playback (more if you reduce the brightness). The higher brightness means that you can project onto larger screens, around the 80-inch to 100-inch range, from a distance of roughly 8 ft. The connectivity options and software loadout is exactly the same as the one on the Capsule 3. Available for pre-order, the Capsule 3 is priced at $549, and the Mars 3 Air at $599.
