Anker’s new Nebula P1 projector solves an irritating problem with portable projectors’ built-in speakers: the best place to place the projector isn’t always the best place to have speakers, especially if you’re projecting remotely.

Here’s how the Nebula P1 solves this problem: its two 10W speakers are detachable, and because they use Bluetooth, you don’t need to run wires anywhere. They are battery operated with a listening time of 20 hours, although the projector itself is mains powered. Anker recommends its SOLIX power station if you want to take the P1 off-grid.

This isn’t the first Anker projector we’ve seen with pop-up speakers: the X1 Pro has them too. But the P1 is considerably more affordable, with a US price of $799 (around £600 / AU$1,219) before early bird discounts. The X1 Pro costs over $4,000.
