Have you ever wanted to own a projector but then you asked yourself “Do I really need it?” I always asked myself that question until I owned one myself and then it changed my whole home movie streaming experience. Currently, I own the 4K1 Mini Projector from AAXA Technologies the main thing I enjoy using it for is streaming shows and movies. Here’s a list of the best mini-projectors for your home theater.

This could be used not only for an inside-home theater projector screen but also as an outdoor projector.
