The mobile projector “ GV11 ” released on November 21, 2022 by Taiwan-based electronics manufacturer

BenQ is equipped with a 135-degree angle adjustment function, making it possible to “project onto the ceiling”. Plus, you can watch YouTube and movies with the included Android TV dongle. Since such GV11 came to the editorial department, I checked the appearance first.

The package of BenQ 'GV11' looks like this.

Remove more boxes from the outer sleeve.

When you open the box, you will find a carry bag containing the GV11 main unit and a small box containing peripheral devices.

I took out all the contents of the box. Inside was the GV11 main unit, instructions and warranty documents, a stand to put the main unit on, 2 AAA batteries, a remote control, various conversion plugs, an AC adapter, and a dongle '

QS01 ' compatible with Android TV 10.0.

The GV11 main body looks like this. The size is 113.5 x 153.3 x 140mm.

It has BenQ logo and projection lens on the front.

The back has a carrying tag and a speaker.

On the left side, in addition to the heat exhaust port, a dial for focus adjustment is mounted.

In addition to the heat exhaust port on the right side, it has a 3.5mm headphone terminal, USB-A terminal, HDMI terminal, and power input terminal.

There is a power button, volume control button, and Bluetooth connection button on the top.

There is a screw hole on the bottom that can be attached to a tripod or the like.

The actual weight of the GV11 is 882g.

The weight including the stand is 948g.

The GV11 main unit, stand, AC adapter, remote control, etc. can be stored in the included carry bag.

The weight of the carry bag containing the main body and accessories was 1396 g.

GV11 comes with a dongle 'QS01' compatible with Android TV 10.0, and you can use services such as YouTube and Amazon Prime by incorporating it into GV11.

The procedure to incorporate the dongle into GV11 is like this. First, remove the GV11 left side cover.

Next, connect the MicroUSB cable that appeared from under the cover to QS01. Furthermore, it is OK if you insert the tip of QS01 into the HDMI terminal and use it.
