Our take on the LightBoks II Smart Cinema Projector

The LightBoks II is a 1080p LCD home theater projector with a handcrafted wood body, built-in Android 9.0 apps, and a Smart Flip mode that rotates the image for vertical video. Its 300 ANSI lumens LED light source is dim by home theater standards, so it suits dark rooms rather than daylight viewing. The 1.38:1 throw ratio gives a 35-inch image from about 1 meter, and it scales up to 180 inches. Its latest best price is $899 at Openhagen as of November 3.

Pros
  • Handcrafted wood body with award-winning Danish design
  • Native 1080p, accepts 4K input
  • Smart Flip switches between horizontal and vertical orientation
  • Android 9.0 with Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube and Disney+ preinstalled
  • Dual 5W speakers, AirPlay and Miracast, 17ms low latency
  • Electronic focus and ±30° keystone on both axes
Cons
  • 300 ANSI lumens is dim; needs a dark room
  • 2000:1 contrast is modest for a home theater projector
  • No lens shift, so placement depends on keystone correction
  • Android 9.0 is an old platform with limited app updates
  • 5 lb and 18 cm cube leaves little room for a large lens

Questions and answers

Is the LightBoks II worth it?
If you want a design object that projects 1080p in a dark room and handles vertical video, yes. If you need a bright living-room projector, 300 ANSI lumens will disappoint.
How does it compare with the first LightBoks?
The II adds native 1080p, electronic focus, ±30° keystone on both axes and the Smart Flip orientation switch. The original was a simpler 720p-class unit.
How bright is it, really?
300 ANSI lumens. That is fine for a dark bedroom or a night-time backyard screen, but washed out with lamps on or daylight coming in.
What is in the box?
Projector, remote control, wireless LightBoks mouse, power cable and a QR code for setup.
Can I use it for gaming?
Yes, with 17ms low latency in game mode. Keep in mind the 1080p resolution and dim output limit fast competitive play in bright rooms.
When is it cheapest?
Watch for holiday sales and bundle promotions; the wood finish means discounts are usually modest. Check the price history before buying.
