Optoma PK201 and PK301 Pico Projectors For Mobile Users

Businessmen, marketers or sale personnels who need to do a lot of presentations are given another two more new choices on pico projectors from Optoma Technology, the world leading projector manufacturer. The two new models, PK201 and PK301pocket projectors have shown substantial improvement in terms of brightness, connectivity and storage options compared to their predecessors. About palm size and weighing about 159g, the PK201 is slightly smaller compared to PK301, which is about 227g. The PK301 offers higher lumens and an optional battery pack for an additional two hours of use in bright mode.

Depending on the need, the PK201 is more suitable for users who prefer a more flexible and tiny model but the brightness of the image will be compromised; PK301 is more suitable for commercial users who are particular about optimal projection results and a longer projection period. Both PK201 and PK301 are packed at $299 and $399 respectively.
