Anker crammed a projector into a soda can-sized smart speaker

The Nebula supposedly packs a lot in a tiny (soda can-size) package: Five speakers that project omnidirectional sound and a projector, with battery life claims of 2.5 hours displaying video or 40 hours playing music. It runs Android 7.0 out of the box, meaning you can load up all your Netflix or HBO apps and play from there. Or you can play content from another device wirelessly over Bluetooth or WiFi (connecting with AirPlay and Miracast) or via HDMI and USB ports.

With a native resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, the Nebula is no replacement for an HD or 4K screen, but its portability and brightness (press materials claim 100 ANSI lumens) make it a potentially great home theater choice. Plus, Anker is a known brand in gadgetry, most recently announcing its cheaper Echo-like Genie digital assistant last month. Best of all, the Nebula’s crowdfunding page claims they’ll start shipping Nebulas this December. The starting $200 deals have already sold out, but you can still get one for $250, a bit off the planned sticker price of $350, which gives you the speaker, a remote, cable and a wall charger.
