ZEEMR Z1 Pro Review

Design

As for shape, the projector looks like a cube, and it has a base with a kickstand at the bottom. By adjusting the kickstand, we can raise the projection height conveniently. The base makes it convenient to hold the projector and change its position. The exterior of the ZEEMR Z1 Pro projector is made of a metal shell and the side panels are perforated for heat dissipation.

ZEEMR Z1 Pro appearance

For the front panel, ZEEMR Z1 MINI Pro has a fabric cover for decoration. We can see the ZEEMER brand logo clearly. The overall workmanship is exquisite and acceptable.

It measures 37.8*23.8*11.2 mm, which is small enough for moving its positions.

ZEEMR Z1 Pro adopts an LED light source, a common light source seen in budget mini projectors, and is measured at 800ANSI lumens.

To improve the viewing effect, you’d better turn off the lights or close your curtains to lower the ambient light.

Regarding resolution, ZEEMR Z1 Pro has a standard resolution of 1080P but it can decode 4K resolution.

In terms of image technique, the projector supports autofocus and auto keystone. Compared with projectors with manual keystones and focus, ZEEMR Z1 Pro is smart and convenient enough. For HDR, ZEEMR Z1 Pro is compatible with HDR10, enhancing the image details greatly.
