PCMag tested the Anker Soundcore Nebula P1, a $799 list price 1080p portable projector running Google TV. The reviewer praised its dual detachable 10W wireless speakers for providing noticeably broader, room-filling sound compared to typical portable projectors, alongside an ultra-low 9.9ms input lag for gaming. However, real-world usable brightness measured closer to 400 lumens rather than the rated 650 ANSI lumens, causing images to wash out under moderate room lighting. PCMag awarded it an Editors' Choice for users prioritizing built-in audio convenience in dark viewing environments.

## Media review

PCMag awarded the Soundcore Nebula P1 Editors’ Choice, concluding that its strong audio and adequate image quality and brightness make it a compelling 1080p room-to-room portable for buyers who prioritize sound.
