Chinese projector brand Dangbei has unveiled a new portable projector ahead of IFA 2024 with the mission to "set cinema free". Its latest pocket-sized beamer, named the Freedo, is set to take on Samsung's The Freestyle projector which has been a fan favourite for creating alfresco movie nights in campsites and gardens since it launched in 2022.
The Freedo supports a handful of useful travel features including a 60Wh battery for cordless viewing, the Google TV operating system built in for onboard streaming capabilities without the need for an external media streamer, and a shockproof carrying case for protecting the projector from the elements if you do decide to take it on a hike or camping weekend. It also charges over USB-C, meaning you can extend your screen time by hooking it up to a portable battery pack.
Speaking of the picture, Dangbei claims that the Freedo "packs a punch" with its impressive 90 per cent coverage of the DCI-P3 colour gamut, alongside its 1080p resolution with HDR support. It can also project an image up to 120 inches, which should suffice for those wanting a big-screen cinema experience in their garden or even projected on a wall or ceiling inside.
Dangbei is also making some bold claims regarding sound, with supposed 360-degree surround sound alongside Dolby Audio compatibility that reportedly delivers "powerful sound matches the impressive visuals". The Freedo is also a two-in-one solution for those who prefer to travel light, as it can double up as a Bluetooth speaker too.
