Does the Lumo Smart Projector need a streaming stick?

No. Streaming apps are built in, so it connects to Wi-Fi and plays on its own. You can still plug in a stick or console through its inputs.

Can I use it in a bright room?

It is at its best in a dim or dark room. In daylight or with lights on, the image looks washed out, so draw the curtains for movie nights.

Do I need an external speaker?

The built-in speaker is fine for casual viewing. For movies, most owners pair it with a Bluetooth speaker or soundbar for fuller sound.

How big a picture can it throw?

It projects a large image onto a wall or screen, and picture size grows as you move it farther back. A plain light-colored wall works; a screen gives a cleaner image.

Is it good for gaming?

It is fine for casual games, but fast action can show lag and the dim output hurts in a lit room. Serious gamers should look at a low-latency projector.
