I’m looking for a projector for my bedroom that will be placed 6-8 feet from the wall, and all i want it for is watching movies in bed/couch. The budget I have is $500 or less, and have found a few options including the Pico Projector and the Dell portable one (idk the name). Will I get good quality out of these? Are they worth it (do they play video well)?

Any suggestions?
