Have you ever wanted to bring the magic of the big screen right into your living room? Maybe you’ve dreamed of watching your favorite movie under the stars or binge-watching shows on a giant screen during your travels. Whether you’re a cinephile like me or just someone who enjoys casual movie nights, there’s something special about having your own portable projector. The problem? Most projectors are bulky, expensive, and just too complicated. But that’s changing. And now the TecSox Luma LED Projector is a proof.

When I first heard about TecSox’s new Android Smart Portable projector, I’ll admit, I was skeptical. A projector under Rs. 4,000 that claims to support 4K content, stream apps, and even rotate 180-degree? Sounds too good to be true, right? But after spending a few weeks with the LED projector, I can confidently say that this little gadget punches way above its price tag. Let’s get to know everything in this review.

What’s Inside The Box?

Here’s what you get when you unbox the TecSox LED Projector:

• TecSox LUMA LED Projector (White)
• Remote Control
• Power Adapter
• User Manual

The remote is handy and works well, though you’ll need AAA batteries (not included). Setup is pretty much plug-and-play. Within minutes, I was browsing the Android interface and streaming shows.

Design That Fits Anywhere

Let’s start with how it looks and feels. The TecSox LUMA is compact, lightweight, and comes in a clean white color that looks quite sleek. Weighing just 750 grams and sized at 17 x 9 x 10 cm, it’s smaller than most Bluetooth speakers and fits easily into a backpack or travel bag. This makes it perfect for weekend trips, office use, or even your terrace movie nights.

What really impressed me is the 180-degree rotatable design. You can tilt and angle the projector easily without needing a stand or stack of books. Whether you want to project on the wall, ceiling, or even at an angle, this little beast adapts with ease.

Visuals That Impress

Now, let’s talk about the most important part, the visuals. The TecSox LED Projector supports content up to 4K resolution, with a native 720p output. While it’s not true 4K, it still delivers sharp and vibrant visuals, especially when projecting up to 100 inches in size. The 200 ANSI lumens brightness ensures that you get decent picture quality in dimly lit rooms. Of course, don’t expect full-blown theatre performance in daylight, but for indoor and nighttime use, it truly shines.

I tested the projector with Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube, and it handled all of them smoothly. The details were clear, and the colors felt well-balanced. It’s perfect for movies, YouTube sessions, or even basic presentations.

Sound And Connectivity

Built-in speakers? Yes. Powerful enough? Sort of. The audio is decent for small rooms, but if you’re aiming for an immersive experience, I’d recommend connecting external speakers or Bluetooth headphones. Thankfully, the Bluetooth 5.0 makes it super easy to pair your devices.

In terms of connectivity, TecSox has nailed it. With Wi-Fi 6 support, streaming content is fast and buffer-free. No more annoying loading circles while you’re mid-scene. And because the projector runs on Android 11, you get access to apps like Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, and YouTube directly from the interface, no need to plug in your phone or laptop.

Auto Keystone And Image Correction

One of my favorite features on the TecSox LED Projector is the auto horizontal keystone correction and 4-point correction. These sound like fancy tech terms, but they simply mean that even if your projector isn’t placed perfectly straight, the image will auto-adjust to look rectangular and aligned. And trust me, this is a huge deal. No more fiddling with angle settings or moving the projector back and forth to fix distortion. Just point and play.

Performance And Storage

The TecSox LED Projector comes with 1GB RAM and 8GB of storage, which is enough for light use and app installations. You won’t be running heavy games on this, but for streaming and presentations, it gets the job done smoothly.

It also boasts a lamp life of 30,000 hours, which means you could watch a movie every day for over eight years without worrying about replacing the bulb. Now that’s value.

Who Should Buy This?

Honestly, the TecSox LED Projector is a perfect match for:

• Students and bachelors who want an affordable entertainment setup.
• Families who’d love outdoor movie nights on a budget.
• Frequent travelers who need a portable presentation tool.
• Small business owners looking for a budget-friendly projector for meetings or demos.
• Movie buffs who want a secondary screen setup in the bedroom or terrace.

Final Verdict: Worth It Or Skip It?

At just Rs. 3,999, the TecSox LED Projector is an absolute steal. While it’s not meant to replace your high-end smart TV, it offers a fun, flexible, and feature-rich alternative that works surprisingly well in real-world usage. For casual movie watching, weekend binge sessions, or even your kid’s cartoon marathons, it’s more than enough.

What impressed me the most was how TecSox managed to bundle all the essential features like Android OS, 4K support, wireless connectivity, rotatable design, and auto image correction, into such a compact and affordable device. So, if you’ve been holding back on buying a projector because of the price or complexity, this is the one that might finally convince you. So go ahead, bring home the big screen, without burning a hole in your pocket.

Design & Build

The Urban Harmonic 2080 soundbar looks way more premium than I expected at this price. The matte black finish gives it a very clean and stylish vibe. It’s not glossy or flashy, but that’s exactly what makes it blend so well with most room setups. Whether your TV setup is fancy or minimal, this soundbar won’t look out of place.

When I unboxed it, I was honestly happy to see how compact and lightweight it is. It didn’t feel bulky at all. I placed it right below my TV, and it fit perfectly, no extra wires popping out, no clutter. You can also wall-mount it if you prefer a more seamless look.

There is touch controls on the top that are smooth and responsive. I tried playing around with them, changing tracks, adjusting the volume, and everything worked smooth. There’s also a tiny LED light that shows whether it’s connected or not. It’s simple but helpful, especially when you are switching between Bluetooth and AUX.

Now, let’s talk about the subwoofer. It’s a wired one, and though it’s not very big, it actually looks quite neat beside the TV unit. It adds to the whole setup and definitely doesn’t feel cheap. More importantly, it doesn’t scream for attention but you’ll hear it when it kicks in.

Overall, the design is practical, space-friendly, and genuinely good-looking. It won’t make your living room look like a sound studio, it just blends in nicely and does the job. Honestly, for a soundbar under Rs. 7,000, Urban has nailed the looks and finish.

Sound Performance

The first thing I noticed was how rich the sound quality is. The 3D surround sound feature is a game changer. It creates a 360-degree immersive audio experience, making it feel like you are right in the middle of the action, whether you are watching movies or playing games. The wired subwoofer takes things to the next level. This delivers deep bass that you can actually feel.

What’s even better is the four EQ modes, there’s one for movies, music, news, and gaming. I’ve used the movie and music modes the most, and trust me, the difference in sound quality is noticeable. It tailors the audio to fit the content you are enjoying, whether you are vibing to music or following an intense action sequence.

The smart standby mode is another thoughtful addition. When you are not using the soundbar, it automatically switches to an energy-efficient mode. This saves the power without you needing to do anything. Small touches like this make a huge difference in the long run, both in terms of convenience and your electricity bill.

Connectivity

One of the standout features for me is the Bluetooth 5.3 support. I’ve connected my phone and tablet to the soundbar with no hassle, and streaming music from anywhere was simple. Plus, the USB, HDMI ARC, and AUX ports give you plenty of options to hook up your TV, gaming console, or whatever device you need. It’s versatile, and that’s something I always look for in a tech product.

Simple, Yet Effective Controls

I love that Urban kept thing super simple when it comes to controls. You can either use the controls on the soundbar itself or pick up the remote control for easy adjustments.

Design

From the charging case to the earbuds, Audio-Technica has taken a unique and intuitive approach for the ATH-TWX7. The tapered teardrop shaped charging case easily slides even into the tiny pockets. This design further makes the unit rest at an angle while charging highlighting the brand’s logo. This is different than the conventional upright or flat positioning of the earbuds during charging. A small LED light is placed at the bottom flap that lits up as soon as you open or close the case’s flap and when it’s plugged in for charging/ battery notifications. To top it all the soft matte finish material of the charging case makes it feel more premium.

Coming to the earbuds, which sports a stem shaped in-ear design for a snug-fit. Default eartips are good to go out-of-the-box. Besides, the option to change eartips is also there with the additional pairs that ship with the box. You’ll find the earbuds offering a secure fit which makes them apt to wear during outdoor activities or work outs. The IPX4 certification adding dust and sweat resistance is a bonus point for the overall design.

Sound Stage

Audito Technica definitely has some of the best sounding pairs out there in the market. And the ATH-TWX7 doesn’t break that legacy. Integrated inside are the 5.8 mm Dynamic drivers that deliver a frequency response range of 10- 40,000 Hz and 100db/ mW sensitivity.

These earbuds are definitely a treat for audiophiles offering a wide and rich sound stage. While it isn’t most well balanced sounding TWS earbuds in the premium/ mid-range category, it’s thumping bass right out of the box hits the right notes for all music lovers.

The overall sound output by these tiny buds packs ample punch to get you grooving to your favorite tracks. Lows, mids and highs are balanced decently and the combined output gives you that premium listening experience. It easily takes on all genres And if you want to tune up the earbuds as per your listening preferences, the AT Connect app compatibility will help you with all the EQ adjustments and further sound refinements.

Distortions with audio is a least of a concern with this pair even when you tune up to the highest audio levels. This makes it a pleasing experience when listening genres like hard metal, pop and R&B. Besides offering an rich output with music, the ATH-TWX7 will also be a solid companion if you are into binge watching shows and movies or gaming.

Noise Cancellation, App Connectivity

With ANC support, the ATH-TWX7 is fully capable of blocking sounds from noisy environments. Combined with the secure fit eartips, the sounds get locked inside your ears leaving you undisturbed during your music playback sessions. Noise cancellation is predominantly constant with least or no variations during its usage.

While the ANC is at par with competitions, the older Bluetooth version is a setback. Instead of the latest versions like the Bluetooth 5.3, the ATH-TWX7 comes with dated Bluetooth 5.1 tech. Though, pairing isn’t a hassle, newer Bluetooth version would have been better for lossless transmission and range efficiency.

That said, it still gets the standard SBC and AAC Bluetooth codec support. Added bonus here is the LDAC codec which further helps with high-quality lossless audio delivery. To enable this feature, you’ll need the compatible A-T connect app installed on your devices. Besides accessing the Bluetooth codec profiles, the A-T connect app offers a host of tuning functionalities such as EQ settings, Low Latency mode, Soundscape, Ambience Control, Talk Through, and Call/ Microphone settings.

Battery Backup

Claimed backup figures are up to 6.5 hours (earbuds) with ANC on, whereas without ANC it is said to go up to 7.5 hours. Charging case holds up to 24 hours and 20 hours of additional backup respectively with and without ANC. But if we speak of the real world backup, the earbuds last close to five hours when listeing at an average volume level of 60 to 80 percent. This is with the ANC on. It only goes slightly up without the ANC being active. Now, for a premium earbud this is an average backup. You might need frequent re-charges with this pair which can be a bummer for some of the users.

Giznext Expert Opinion

Audio-Technica has once again proved its expertise in the audio segment with the ATH-TWX7. This pair striking a decent balance in terms of build, sound output and overall usage surely gets the game rolling. But it’s not solely the signature audio and design that decides its success. Battery backup is another factor that comes into consideration where it lacks somewhat compared to alternatives in the market. If you can get past that, the the ATH-TWX7 is worth all the money. Give it shot if you are a hardcore audiophile and are looking for a premium sounding TWS pair.
