Yaber T2 Plus GTV review

Full review

The T2 Plus GTV is aimed at people who want to move a projector around: the garden, a bedroom, a trip away. It has a built-in battery that Yaber rates at 2.5 hours of video or 18 hours of music, which is enough for most films, though not for a long one at full volume. At 2.5 kg it is heavier than the pocket-sized models, so think of it as portable rather than pocketable.

The GTV version adds Google TV, which brings a broad app catalogue, licensed streaming support and voice search, and avoids the limited app range of many cheaper projectors. The image is native 1080p from an LED-lit LCD engine with a 1.25:1 throw ratio.

Brightness is where the maker's page is not consistent. The spec table says 350 ISO lumens, while the FAQ says 450 ANSI lumens. These are different measures, so the two are not necessarily in conflict, but it makes comparison harder. In practice, expect a good picture in a dark room and watchable results at dusk, not in daylight.

Speakers are a highlight: two 8 W units tuned by JBL with Dolby Audio support, which is more than most rivals offer. Connections include HDMI, USB-A, an audio output and an Ethernet port, plus Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0. HDR and input lag are not published. It is a good all-rounder for flexible, casual viewing.
