Does it need a power outlet?

Yes. There is no battery, so it must stay plugged in. 'Portable' here means small and easy to carry, not cord-free.

Can I connect my phone directly?

Only through HDMI. The listing names phone video compatibility but lists HDMI as the input, so you need an adapter or streaming stick for most phones.

Is it bright enough for daytime viewing?

A 30W lamp is dim by projector standards. Plan on a dark or dim room; daylight viewing will look washed out.

What does the 6000:1 contrast ratio mean?

It is a dynamic contrast figure, measured by varying the light output, not native panel contrast. Real black levels will be modest.

Does it come with a screen or mount?

The listing does not include them. It is described as fixed installation, so budget for a mount or shelf and a screen or blank wall.

How long will the lamp last?

The light source is rated at 5,000 hours. That is roughly a few years of regular evening use before brightness drops noticeably.

Our take on the ARTSEA Mini Portable Projector

The ARTSEA Mini Portable Projector is a small fixed-installation projector for home theater use, with HDMI input, Full HD support and auto keystone correction. Its 30W lamp is rated for 5,000 hours and the 6000:1 dynamic contrast figure is a processing claim, not native contrast. It has no battery, so 'portable' means easy to move between rooms and outlets, not cord-free use. Against budget mini projectors from brands like AuKing and Yaber it is a basic HDMI-only unit; buyers should expect dim output suited to dark rooms and phone mirroring through a separate adapter or stick.
