With the popularity of smart projectors, enjoying movie-quality big-screen viewing at home is no distant dream. Today's smart projection, not only play more, strong performance, the price has been able to match with the mobile phone, so many families have projector into the must choose one of the household appliances. Projection is good, but the configuration and function of each brand is not the same, how to spend the least money, to buy the most appropriate projection has become the key, today the author in the way of evaluation, and you share a very hot recently when the shell F1C smart projection, to see whether this projection is worth buying.

Dangbei F1C Smart Projection

The reason why I evaluated this smart projection of dangbei F1C was also a comparison, and I found that among many flagship projection products, dangbei F1C has great advantages in both price and configuration. Industry, in addition, the homogeneity serious projection when Mr F1C pioneered non-inductive automatic trapezoidal correction and non-inductive autofocus black science and technology, it is a great breakthrough innovation function, can be largely solved the effects of environmental factors on the projection screen, so that the projection is more suitable for use in all kinds of home environment. So how does this projection work? Still come to experience together!

Apart from the packaging, it can be seen that the figure of the smart projection of donberg F1C is not large. After looking at the size in the instructions, the volume is only 255mm * 183mm * 84mm, and the net weight is about 2.1kg. It belongs to the petite type, so it won't take up too much space.

In terms of appearance, basic continuation when Mr On the design of the flagship model of F1 generation, the fuselage of the cuboid shape, appearance design aspect not to say jing is colourful, but also look not mediocrity, silver metal with colored cloth art collocation, make whole very rich sense of science and technology, and can fit all kinds of household style very well.

On the front of the body, the projection lens of sapphire lens is adopted, and the projection light source technology of RGB LED and DLP display technology are applied. The light bulb brightness is 1300 ANSI lumen, equivalent to the light source brightness of 3600 lumens. The maximum resolution can reach 1920X1080 DPI, supporting 4K resolution and active shutter 3D technology. At the same time, MEMC dynamic thermal compensation technology is also incorporated, which can effectively reduce the problem of running focus and virtual focus, and solve the problem of picture blocking and tail dragging in the movie. From this alone, we can see that dang bei F1C is quite sincere.

Next to the lens, is the product's dual TOF + CMOS camera module, which can be said to be a big highlight of the dangbei F1C. The dual algorithm of dual TOF + CMOS camera realizes chip-level senseless automatic trapezoid correction and senseless autofocus, which is essentially different from the way of focusing through software. For our users, the most intuitive feeling is to save the focus of the picture steps, even if the projector is moved halfway, the picture will automatically focus with the change of the projection, always let the projected picture to show the best display effect.

In terms of buttons and interfaces, all the integration can be seen in the rear of the body, in addition to the power button on the left, the lower part is equipped with S/PDIF audio jack, network interface, HDMI hd output interface, two USB 3.0 interface and power jack, in terms of expansion can fully meet our daily use. And out of sight, the dangbei F1C has a built-in 5G wifi network that can connect to the 5G network of an AC router, giving it higher transmission speeds and lower channel interference.

Look on either side of the fuselage at first seemed no different, but look carefully you can see, the left side of the grille hole is F1C speakers, although the volume of a body is not big, but when Mr F1C didn't sound on shrinking, and also has carried on the substantial upgrade to sound cavity, can provide descend to 100 Hertz, the bass level, while viewing, immersive sound shadow effect.

On the right side is the product of cooling hole, with internal heat sinks, copper pipe and fan, in the operation of the equipment, heat will be fan export, then through the radiator grille, so in the operation of the equipment, will send out the voice of the fan rotation, but fortunately when Mr F1C equipped with high efficient mute fan, so the noise is not obvious, but the specific how to noise, the author will make a test later.

The bottom design of dangbei F1C is simple and clear. In addition to the product parameter information, the screw hole of the bracket is reserved in the middle to support normal placement and hoisting. Additional, bottom all round still tie-in the non-slip foot that can adjust height, pass the fine-tuning of height of non-slip foot, can let projector apply to put environment more.

The remote looks very similar to a normal TV box, with the same buttons and layout, as well as support for voice input. The only difference is, when Mr F1C designed a remote control key side, the side key support according to short and according to the function of the long, long press can realize automatic focus, and short press can quickly bring up the Settings menu, rapid positioning to 3 d function, motion compensation, focus, task switching, Settings, and so on common functions, eliminating the return set operations, such as just a key can be adjusted.

Previously, it was mentioned that the dangbei F1C was integrated with the black technology of sensorless automatic trapezoidal correction and sensorless autofocus. Presumably some partners are not familiar with this, so the author made a test for it. It can be seen from the GIF that when the projector moves, the picture will automatically adjust to the best state in an instant, and keep the picture trapezoid unchanged all the time. All this is done automatically, and there is no correction and focusing of the picture, which is indeed a non-inductive adjustment, saving us the trouble of manual focusing.

In terms of system, dangbei F1C still carries its own dangbei OS system, MStar938 flagship TV chip based on hardware, 3G DDR3 + DDR4 high-speed storage and 32G eMMC storage space, which makes the system run smoothly. The overall layout of the UI interface is clear and clear, the operation is easy to understand, and you can define the content of the UI according to your own preferences, which is quite human. Navigation through the home page you can see, the contents of the system is very rich, has huge amounts of film and television resources, covering film, TV, sports, variety, children, etc., and probes into the types of resources layout, in each section has a more detailed classification, at the same time also has a built-in iQIYI, mango TV, pp sports, and many other commonly used software, either film or chase play, can easily obtain the resources.

In addition, the system also provides special support for the third party software download of the dangbei market, there is a vast pool of resources in the dangbei market, to know that dangbei in a long time ago has been cultivating TV resources and content, common apps on the market can be found in the dangbei market, save us the trouble of another download.

As mentioned before, when the brightness of shell F1C is 1300 ANSI lumens, it is equivalent to the brightness of the light source of 3600 lumens. It can be seen from the pictures taken in real time that the projected image can also be shown very clearly under the normal light during the day, but the overall picture is white due to the influence of sunlight. After shading, the picture immediately becomes clear and gorgeous, and all the details can be clearly displayed. The picture image is exquisite, full of layers, and the color is amazing.

The great use of a projection is used to slice or chase play, the author experience several blockbusters, feeling when Mr F1C for dynamic image processing is very good, MEMC based motion compensation technology, watching a high-definition movie, didn't find the tail and blur, making large projection screen visual impact feeling, lets the user level at home can experience the cinema viewing effect, that is why more and more families, all the projection included will choose the reason of home appliance. The dangbei F1C can not only meet the needs of large-sized viewing, but also bring excellent sound and shadow effects.

Although many TV boxes now support voice functionality, it seems that the voice functionality is not intelligent, and most of it is only used to find resources, and other than that, it does not seem to be very useful. What makes the dangbei F1C different is that it offers a more intelligent upgrade to voice, with support for multiple rounds of conversations and voice installations, in addition to the most basic voice lookup. Almost all operations can be done by voice, further improving user comfort.

And in the voice aspect the most creative is when the shell literacy function, through the remote control can answer the question in the program, the system will automatically recognize the content of the voice, so as to determine whether the answer is right or wrong, very suitable for users with children at home. Therefore, the F1C projection of dangbei can not only be used to watch the film, but also integrate teaching and entertainment, so that the whole family can participate in it.

We know that the projector at run time will send out a high quantity of heat, the light bulb is one of the biggest source of heat, if heat dissipation is not good, it is easy to burn the internal components, so a lot of manufacturers in order to avoid security problems, will adopt the high power radiator, which creates a projector at run time will be made a lot of noise, influence the effect of the movie very much. The author also tested this problem through the noise detection software. It can be seen from the picture that the noise is 44 decibels at a distance of 0 and 33 decibels at a distance of about 1 meter. It can be seen that dangbei F1C has a good grasp of heat dissipation and noise. In the startup operation, there is no obvious noise, and the sound of the fan can only be heard at a very close distance, while at a normal distance, the noise is almost completely ignored.
