According to our projector expert
The Philips Screeneo HDP1690's a complete multimedia system for your living room. Place the projector 10 to 44cm from your wall and project an image size of between 50 and 100 inches. Large enough to give a cinematic effect at home. The projector projects all movies in 3D and comes standard with a pair of 3D glasses. Stream your movies and music wirelessly, directly from a laptop or smartphone to the projector via WiFi or Bluetooth. Thanks to the powerful speakers and woofer, the projector can be used as a Bluetooth speaker. This means that this device comes in handy once you have worked your way through your movie collection.

Very compact when you consider that you don't need a sound system or PC or DVD player. ideal for taking with you on a trip in a hotel room. Image quality is top in comparison with the previous generation. The previous generation was disappointing because it didn't have 600 HZ, so the image always shook. Too bad it doesn't have full HD, but the image quality is very good, even at a 2.5 meter image diameter. Nice that it runs on android. This opens up an infinite number of possibilities. You can connect a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. If you project the projector on a small screen, you then have a kind of android PC with a beautiful large screen. You really only need a socket and a wall

Finally an affordable projector that can be placed close to the wall and makes little noise. A home cinema up to 100". Light output in daylight is reasonable, when the sun shines it becomes difficult. Then darkening the area is a must. Sometimes has issues with 1080p devices, but if you set it to 1080i it works fine again. Use a smooth white wall (or projector screen) for the best image. Very satisfied. Had a 46" TV, now the colors and color depth of a TV are nicer, but the experience on 100" more than makes up for this!

This review was written after 2 months. of testing the internal software and installing and uninstalling various Android AppsÂ’.
My approach is: How can I watch TV on the beamer and how can Apps such as Netflix, You Tube and Horizon Go and HBOGo work via Android.
The Philips Screeneo HDP1690 is the type with built-in WiFi and many connection options. Image is (especially in the evening) very clear and rich in contrast. But is also fine during the day (except when the sun shines directly on it). I use it as a replacement for my TV. Is not as sharp, but is more than made up for by the “cinema feeling”. Sound is also fine.
It is very possible to install the Google Play Store on it, after which it is possible to install e.g. HBO Go and Netflix, You Tube or other Apps on it. Watching TV is best if the signal is input via an HDMI input via a TV receiver (I use a Humax Harddiskrecorder for that).
Then the internal software: The device “runs” on android. This is actually “phone software”, for example, it contains default Mail, Calendar, Contacts, etc. that cannot be deleted. I wonder what to do with this on a beamer and in my opinion it is just ballast for the system.
Furthermore, the system is not very fast, which regularly led to crashing Apps; eg the App Horizon Go does not run very well on this system, so I uninstalled it again. The not fast system also does not get along well with the air mouse, because it is constantly busy with “something”. Also strange, in terms of time zone, the beamer is set to London, this cannot simply be adjusted in the settings, but it can be adjusted via an App, which can control it. (The correct time zone is sometimes required with Apps such as Broadcast Missed from the NPO).
Wifi: The Wifi adapter can receive both 2.4 and 5 GHz signals, but does not receive But a moderate signal compared to various devices. In order to be able to use the WiFi properly, it is necessary to invest in a good WiFi signal. (A small repeater, close to the device, however, works wonders). The device can also be connected via a network cable, but has disadvantages for various Apps, because they only work well via WiFi (e.g. HBO Go). In short, running apps via WiFi is fine, if you take into account that the system is not very fast. Once the AppÂs are running, it usually runs well.
Resume: A very nice projector, with many possibilities. Provides sufficiently sharp image and can handle HD video. Internal software and processor is weak to fair and slow, but works. If you have the option to connect, for example, a TV receiver or Apple TV, it is a nice device. Furthermore, it is highly questionable whether you can also do with the cheaper type HDP 1550 (without WiFi).
