Where are the differences?

The mini projector P3E made by Asus has a few differences compared to the Optoma IntelliGO S1. Let's have a look at those in detail.

Image

The Asus P3E can run at a maximum of 800 Lumen, which is more than the Optoma IntelliGO S1 runs on. the Optoma IntelliGO S1's maximum performance are 500 Lumen.

Resolution

Another key consideration when purchasing a mini projector, is its resolution. Some mini projectors support HD, others Full HD, and then there's even True UHD or 4K mini projectors. When it comes to these two, the Asus P3E has a non-standard resolution of 1280 x 800. the Optoma IntelliGO S1 on the other hand has HD, at a resolution of 1280 x 720.

Battery

As far as batteries go, we believe that it's very useful for your portable mini projector to have them. Whether you're out with friends or hold a presentation at work: Batteries can't hurt in case you don't have access to a power outlet. Unfortunately, either the Asus P3E, or the Optoma IntelliGO S1 runs on batteries, which is why you should make sure to have a power supply close to your mini projector.

How long does the battery last?

The battery of the P3E lasts for up 550,0 minutes, which is longer than the IntelliGO S1's. This one just lasts for 454,0 minutes. This point goes to the P3E. It's important to remember that depending on what you use your projector for, the actual battery time might be a little lower after all.

Sensors

Most of the time, we want to connect our media devices to the Internet for practical reasons, such as watching the latest cat videos! The mini projector scene is catching up to this and some models are already equipped with WiFi functions. In this case, none of the two projectors have an option to connect with the Internet. An alternative could a WiFi Dongle to plug into your USB. Frankly, that's not the best option in our opinion. If having WiFi is important to you, you could check out one of the other products below.
