Appreciation

The size of the small whale projection M1 is very small, almost the size of a book, and can be grasped with one hand. Users can flexibly adjust their angles and have more viewing positions. The overall use of all-metal body design, the metal material is finely carved, pure metal aluminum extrusion shell with a large area of ​​sandblasting process (in the industry for the first time), delicate touch, the lens is used on the front of the drawing process.


The micro whale M1 broke the traditional style design of Founder and adopted a unique octagonal shape. The entire metal shell does not have a single screw, which is integrally molded and fully enclosed. Both sides of the fuselage use rose gold color matching, platinum gold + rose gold color matching, easy to match with all kinds of home decoration style.


Micro whale projection M1 is equipped with a highly translucent sealed glass lens, which is wear-resistant and scratch-resistant. It can also be easily wiped, and the lens can be cleaned. It is not dusty and durable.


The interface is hidden on the left side of the fuselage and is protected by a dust cover. From left to right are the 3.5mm audio interface, HDMI2.0, USB3.0 and the bottom of the power interface and switch button.


Micro whale M1 Bluetooth remote control using 12-key button layout, press the key process is moderate, feedback is better, a sense of pressure is obvious. The voice function key is set at the symmetrical position of the switch button, and the focus is through the left and right arrow keys.

[projection effect performance]

Micro whale projection M1 uses the new TI 1080P DLP technology, 8.38mm DMD digital micromirror array display, we have practically tested, micro whale M1 projection screen rich color, natural transition, a strong sense of the number of screen layers.

In addition, the Micro Whale Projection M1 has the DCI-P3 professional wide color gamut standard, which is closer to the natural color range seen by human eyes, and is 26% larger than the traditional color gamut standard of sRGB/Rec.709. According to the manufacturer, the Micro Whale M1 has a 7200K cinematic golden color temperature and automatic eye protection mode. After we actually watched the 2-hour video, we did not feel tired or uncomfortable.



The micro whale projection M1 is the first 64-bit processor to use the A73 architecture (60% higher performance than the A53), with a Mali450 five-core GPU, and easy to decode 4K video format, high-definition photos.


The micro whale projection M1 is equipped with HDR10 image decoding technology. Through HDD10 HDD quality technology, we have effectively improved the brightness dynamic range, displaying more light and dark details and rich color performance.


In addition, in the 4K high bit rate video, the micro whale projection M1 also has a good performance. In the 125 high bit rate video test, the micro whale M1 played smoothly and smoothly, and there wasn't any Caton in the whole process. The vehicles can display, and they also have motion compensation technology. High-speed images are not smeared.


In addition, it is worth mentioning that the Micro Whale M1 supports multi-angle projection without bracket support, and is based on its unique octagonal design. For example, ceiling projection can be set up on a bed, and in the case of office conferences and other occasions, when the angle of the projection screen needs to be adjusted, the octagonal design can be freely adjusted, which is convenient and practical.


In terms of audio, the Micro Whale M1 is equipped with a self-developed fully-enclosed panoramic sound double speaker system. It is constructed using a paper cone made of imported wool mixed material. The structure of the fully-enclosed cabinet is filled with high-density fiber sound-absorbing cotton. Provide users with excellent sound effects, and support Dolby, DTS dual decoding.


In addition, the Micro Whale M1 can be turned into an independent WiFi Bluetooth stereo, supports playback via a WiFi/Bluetooth connection, and can also be connected via Airplay, etc. In the connected state, the network music radio is enabled by default. (Supports radio stations including shrimp, watercress, himalayan, koala, koala, etc.)

【Projection data measured】


The whale M1 projection ratio reaches 1.2:1 (that is, the width of the screen can reach 0.833 meters at a distance of 1 meter), a large screen at a short distance, and a larger field of view at the same distance, and supports projection magnification of 60-300 inches.


Turn off the light environment: The micro whale M1 is rich in natural and clear colors under the light-off environment. The details such as trees can be presented one by one.

Lighting environment: The projected image is still clear, the color transition is obvious, and the details of the object are preserved.

1, brightness test

Brightness is an important indicator of projection. Brightness directly affects the projection projection screen effect. The higher the brightness is, the clearer the picture is. Here we will actually test the brightness of the M1.


Still using the industry's accepted 9-point test method for brightness testing, ANSI: divide the projected screen into nine equal parts, measure the brightness of each center, and then calculate the average of the 9 points, that is, micro The average illuminance of whale projection M1.


Through actual tests, the average illuminance of the Micro Whale M1 is 473 LUX, and the projected area of ​​the test is 1.24 m2, so the actual brightness measured this time is 587 ANSI lumens (there is a certain difference from the official 750 ANSI lumens) due to the test. Environmental light and other factors, for your reference only.


Compared with other smart projections

2, contrast test

Contrast is also an important criterion for considering projection quality. Contrast, the ratio of white to black, is the gradient from white to black. (The higher the ratio, the more gradient levels from white to black, and the richer the color performance.) We also used the ANSI contrast test method to test the ANSI contrast of the microwhale M1.


The test method is to take the central illuminance of the 16-point black-and-white color blocks, and then the ratio between the average value of the eight white areas and the average value of the eight black areas is the ANSI contrast ratio.


The whale M1's ANSI contrast ratio was 77:1 through the actual test conducted by the HD Fan evaluation room. (The ANSI contrast value is between 100-200, which means that there is an excellent picture display capability; if it is higher than 200:1, the details of the dark part of the picture will be better), the test is affected by the environment, the value is for reference only .


3, noise test

In the noise test, we chose to carry out this test in a closed and quiet environment, and place the detector close to the air outlet of the fuselage, in an effort to obtain a relatively strict set of data.


Through the actual measurement, the noise of the air outlet reached 59 decibels, and the noise around the airframe was generally between 40-50 decibels.

In the decibel level, 30dB ~ 40dB is an ideal quiet environment, more than 50dB will affect the rest and sleep


Our actual experience: The micro whale M1 is noisier in a quiet environment, and its performance is within an acceptable range compared with competitive products of the same price.

4, power test


The power of the small whale projection M1 is about 0.54W in the standby state, and about 44.29W in the bright state of the startup screen.

When playing online video, the power is about 44..22W. When playing local 4K HD video, the power is about 47.70W. After playing for a while, the overall power does not change much.


Compared with other smart projections

5, temperature test

Smart projection in order to achieve portability, the chip is highly integrated, which also caused a general case of large heat, long-term operation will appear hot defocus, run out of focus, etc., the heat-dissipation capability of the projection is relatively high, here we Temperature tests were performed around the microwhale M1.


After testing, the outlet temperature was 34°C, the lens temperature was 30°C, and the temperatures in other locations were close to the room temperature.

6, virtual coke, run coke test


Through the actual test, no virtual coke phenomenon was found. After the machine was running for half an hour, the screen was clear and there was no obvious phenomenon of running out of focus.

It is understood that the micro whale projection M1 is equipped with a sharp color management engine (24 items of its own image quality enhancement technology), a square pixel architecture, making the text more sharp.

【Projection Function Settings】

Many projection users have encountered the phenomenon of running out of focus, especially during the viewing process, the screen suddenly blurred, users need to manually focus adjustment, viewing experience greatly reduced.


Micro whale projection M1 supports auto focus and auto trapezoidal correction, which guarantees the user experience. In addition, the whale projection M1 eliminates the tediousness of frequent focus adjustment caused by the mobile projection. Our actual test, the autofocus speed is relatively fast, basically completed within 1 second.


In addition, the micro whale M1 also supports options such as lifting, front projection, rear projection, etc. Manual focus is adjusted via the left and right arrow keys of the Bluetooth remote control.



The shooting function of the M1 projection M1 is also very powerful. No matter where you are, what equipment and systems you use, you can put your PC/mobile phone/PAD on the M1, support the Airplay/DLNA/Miracast transmission protocol. .

[System UI and Resources]

Another major feature of the system is the micro-whale LIVE. The micro-whale rotation program includes news, movies, TV shows, variety shows, sports, children, animation and other seven major categories, including many featured content, and supports review function .

[Intelligent voice control]

For many elderly users, smart products are actually not "smart", and many complex functional designs and television classifieds often make them confused. In particular, searching for movies and TV dramas, pinyin, or five-stroke input is too much trouble. For elderly users, it is very difficult. The artificial intelligence voice system carried by the M1 whale projection M1 solves this problem very well.



Users use the voice to say the name of the movie or TV drama they want to watch or the name of the actor. The system will automatically retrieve the relevant movie and TV drama. Users will no longer need to search for resources in a single forum and save time. In addition, many elderly users are more forgetful. The voice system supports setting reminders. For example, after 30 minutes of soup, 9 tomorrow morning meeting, you can set reminders.



In addition, many elderly users have encountered this kind of situation. They want to change channels with the remote control, and the result becomes the volume adjustment. Can't tell fast forward/backward, volume adjustment, program zapping these function operation buttons. The intelligent voice function can directly control the movie play forward/backward, play/pause, adjust the volume and play the next episode.

Written at the end:

The unique design of the M1 octagonal whale projection has a unique sense of refinement. The compact body facilitates the user to carry around, with a projection ratio of up to 1.2:1, like a mobile cinema. At the same time as the industry's first smart projector equipped with A73 architecture processor, its projection quality performance is also worth noting.
