Everything USB is pleased to announce our BenQ GP1 mini LED Projector with USB Reader review.

While ever more miniature digital projectors have been hitting the market for years now, these compact units have always had limitations that kept them from making that leap from nice idea to truly useful. This time around, BenQ packs impressive specs into its new GP1 pico projector - while targeting mainstream, media saavy consumers. While its size and weight are impressive, it also boasts 100 lumens of LED brightness, with a world's first integrated USB reader and the ability to decode video and audio streams on the fly, without a PC attached. Read on for the review.

Verdict:
An extremely versatile projector indeed, the BenQ GP1 LED projector makes a compelling case for boardroom, living room, games room, or campsite use. Small and medium sized businesses, entrepreneurs and traveling salespeople, gamers and consumers with large-screen needs have little reason not to take a hard look at this little gem.

The Good:
+ Sleek, compact design
+ Built-in USB reader with audio and video decoding support

The Bad:
- VGA cable a bit short
- Native resolution too low to support HD content

We hope you and your readers will find this review helpful and informative.
