Lenovo<\/a>\u00a0is a firm that has released good products, although it has also left us with others, however, we consider it to be a reliable brand.\u00a0It seems that they want to enter more into the projector market, therefore, they have been releasing new models, which seem attractive to us due to their performance and cost.\u00a0Today we will analyze what the\u00a0Lenovo L5\u00a0includes, an interesting option for those who want to project their favorite content at an acceptable quality.\u00a0Obviously we will also mention the negative points.<\/p>\n

Exterior design of the Lenovo L5<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

It could have a better design, however, it maintains details that can make it look good<\/p>\n

Apparently its appearance does not stand out too much\u00a0, since it offers an aesthetic similar to that of other models that were not considered very attractive either, however, a good placement can make this projector offer a more striking view no matter where we are.<\/p>\n

To begin with, we have a silver-colored chassis that makes it striking and not exactly for beauty,\u00a0but for the strength of its shine\u00a0.\u00a0However, we noticed that it can offer a good integration in the room or room where it is placed, since it ends up generating a better presence.<\/p>\n

It is not a portable projector, in fact, it has a total weight of 2.2 kg, which may seem little, however,\u00a0when moving it for a certain time, it becomes tiring\u00a0.\u00a0In terms of size, it is not very large and can even fit well in a backpack to carry it in case of an emergency.<\/p>\n

Of course, we must be careful when moving it,\u00a0since its construction materials do not seem to be so resistant\u00a0.\u00a0In general terms, we have a simple design that if we know how to take advantage of it, we can combine it with certain aspects, thus we manage to generate a more elegant environment.<\/p>\n

connectivity<\/h3>\n

Now let’s talk about the connections offered by this model, which generate interest for how useful they turn out to be.\u00a0To begin with, we have two\u00a0USB 2.0\u00a0that we can use to connect mobile hard drives, which we can use to play external content.<\/p>\n

We also have two\u00a0HDMI\u00a0that will be the most used, since they allow us to connect external devices and send their signal to the projector, for example, computers, laptops, consoles and players, in addition, they offer high definition so as not to lose quality in the transmission.<\/p>\n

Other equally striking physical connections are AV for video and its output for audio.\u00a0In the wireless theme we find the most valuable options of the moment, which makes this projector have a plus.\u00a0Here we have\u00a0Wi-Fi\u00a0to use the internet and\u00a0Bluetooth\u00a0for devices.<\/p>\n

Projection quality and functions in general<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Lenovo L5\u00a0seeks to have a balance when projecting content regardless of the source of origin, therefore, it offers a resolution at 1080P, obviously it will also be capable of playing at 720P.\u00a0Both definitions allow us to see sharp images with finer details\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Although we prefer to use 1080P mostly, as if that were not enough, it has four-corner correction that avoids distorted or crooked images that we have seen in other models.\u00a0This way we get better optimized scenes\u00a0, yes, the experience will not be so incredible.<\/p>\n

And this is due in part to its brightness of 650 ANSI lumens, which is acceptable, however,\u00a0in very dark\u00a0or\u00a0bright environments it can lose quality\u00a0, therefore, we must find a place where this issue is not a problem or condition the room to take advantage of to the maximum the projector.<\/p>\n

As for the colors, we notice that these are vivid and intense, which makes the projection slightly more realistic.\u00a0Something similar happens with the contrast that seeks to be deeper.\u00a0In general terms we have an acceptable quality\u00a0, although it is clear that it could be better.<\/p>\n

Sound<\/h3>\n

We appreciate that they integrate a speaker, which tries to provide good quality audio, however, we must accept that its power is not the best and can even be considered a negative point.\u00a0Since for demanding content it does not have the necessary strength\u00a0.\u00a0Despite this, it can be an acceptable sound if we use the projector in a more personal way.\u00a0Otherwise it is best to buy a sound bar.<\/p>\n

Analysis of the software \/ Smart TV and more notable features<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0Lenovo L5\u00a0has some extra features that can come in handy to get more out of it.\u00a0To begin with, the most interesting thing is that it works with\u00a0Android 9.0 , therefore, we will be able to use some features of this system without having to connect an external device.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All we have to do is connect to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, so we can control popular applications such as\u00a0Netflix\u00a0,\u00a0Prime Video\u00a0,\u00a0YouTube\u00a0,\u00a0Spotify\u00a0,\u00a0Disney+\u00a0.\u00a0Star+\u00a0or\u00a0HBO Max\u00a0.\u00a0In addition, we find a good optimization thanks to the processor that it includes.<\/p>\n

Which is part of Huawei and bears the name of Hisilicon, this is a new bet for future projectors, and so far it has given good results.\u00a0Likewise,\u00a0we can transmit content from our smartphone or other devices\u00a0.\u00a0It also includes the Office suite.<\/p>\n
