Anker shows off its tiny new 100W GaN charger, Eufy dual-camera doorbell, and more at CES 2022
GaN chargers, garage cams, and power banks, oh my!
Trade shows like CES are all about wowing attendees with presentation and spectacle, and while that may be easy if you're showing off 120-inch high-refresh-rate OLED TVs, it's a little trickier when you're dealing with lower-key smart home and mobile devices. We've got plenty of love to go around, though, and for CES 2022 we're absolutely making a point to check in with companies like Anker, taking a look at all the new devices and accessories it's introducing, including a few under its eufy and Nebula sub-brands.
Anker Nebula projectors are up to $240 off with Amazon's Deal of the Day
Stream on the big screen with one of these deals
Anker's Nebula projector lineup makes for some of the best affordable options on the market, and three of its most popular units have all just hit new lows as part of Amazon's Deal of the Day.The most affordable projector, the Anker Nebula Capsule, isn't super-bright, and the 480p resolution is outright terrible in 2021. Still, with four hours of playback on a single charge, it's practically begging to join in on your camping trips this summer. Unfortunately, the Capsule is stuck running Android 7.0, so be prepared for some app incompatibility. If you're willing to spend some extra cash, the Nebula Solar offers a more traditional form factor with 400 ANSI lumens and a full 1080p resolution, and features Android TV 9.0 for streaming apps and Cast support.For those looking for the best of the bunch, it's the Nebula Cosmos. With 900 ANSI lumens and a projection size up to 150 inches, it's perfect for binging Netflix on the big screen in your living room — or wherever you've got the wall space.
Anker has produced more than a few smart projectors with built-in Android, and one of the company's newer models is the 1080p Solar. It runs Android TV 9.0 Pie, and now you can get it for $441.99 from Amazon, a savings of $78 from the usual price.This model is a 1080p smart projector with a 400 NASI lumen lamp, HDR10 support, native 1080p resolution, and a projection size of up to 120 inches. The unit has a built-in kickstand, and there's also keystone correction, so the projector doesn't have to be facing perfectly center for a quality image. Since it's running Android TV, you can install plenty of media apps on the projector itself, or cast content to it from any Chromecast-compatible app.
Save up to 34% off Anker's Android-powered projectors in Amazon's Deal of the Day
Make your own movie theater anywhere
Anker makes a series of projectors under its Nebula branding, and we really liked the Nebula Capsule II when we reviewed it last year. Today, Amazon is offering up a variety of Nebula projectors running Android with savings of up to 34% off — including the brand-new Cosmos Max with 4K HDR10 support and 1500 lumens.There are four models on sale today ranging from the $244.99 Nebula Apollo to the $1,189 Nebula Cosmos Max. Each of the projectors is portable and runs Android, but the output resolution gets higher with the prices. There's a projector for every situation, like the Mars II that comes with a ceiling mount. Some of them can even perform additional features like serving as a Bluetooth speaker.
Anker’s new 1080p Nebula Cosmos Android TV projector goes on sale at a premium price
You can still get 10% off with an early-bird offer
Anker-owned Nebula has a pretty extensive projector lineup, and we liked its portable Capsule II a fair bit even though it wasn’t particularly affordable. The brand stepped into a more premium tier late last year with its Android TV-enabled Cosmos range that offered both an FHD and a 4K model. Now the lower-end option is going up for sale in the US, and early buyers can knock 10% off the hefty price tag using a coupon code.
Anker's Nebula Soundbar with built-in Fire TV is down to $199 ($31 off)
It's a soundbar and streaming stick in one sleek package
Anker produces more than just charging cables and batteries. The company also has a decent range of audio products, including the 'Nebula Soundbar' — a soundbar with an integrated 4K Fire TV streaming device. Now you can get the Nebula Soundbar for $199.00, a $31 reduction from the usual price.The soundbar has two 3" 30W subwoofers, two 1.5" 20W speakers, and two bass ports. It also has two audio input connectors, one optical and one 3.5mm. There is an HDMI port, but that's only for outputting video from the Fire TV interface, so you can't daisy-chain additional video devices. If you want all your TV's connected devices to use the soundbar, you'll have to run an audio output from the TV to the bar. Thankfully, both 3.5mm and optical audio cables are included in the box, along with wall mount brackets and everything else you might need.
Welcome to February! To usher in the second month of 2020, we have our usual deluge of deals that are ripe for the picking. This Wednesday, we're taking a look at an assortment of Mobvoi TicWatch Wear OS smartwatches, some true wireless earbuds, an adorable bunny baby monitor, and more.
Welcome to the last week of summer! As you mourn the decline of daylight hours, console yourself with some deals. This week, we've got a great price on Amazon's new Echo Show 5, plus money off the Anker Nebula Capsule, a cool wireless charger, and more.
Portable projectors are great for impromptu movie screenings, and Anker's Nebula Capsule line comprises some of the best. They're priced accordingly, though; the Capsule II is a whopping $580 at full price. But not today! Amazon's got the projector for $412.49 right now — $167.50 off.For your $400 and change, you'll get 200 ANSI lumens of brightness, and a 720p picture up to 100 inches, diagonally. The Capsule II also runs apps natively, so there's no need to connect to an external source to stream from the likes of YouTube or Hulu. In his review, Corbin praised the projector's design and software.
If you're looking for an Android-powered projector — which, if you're reading this, you most likely are — Anker's Nebula line is probably on your short list. Woot has two of last year's portable Nebula projectors at deep discounts today: the Mars II is down to 9.99, while the smaller Capsule is 9.99.
How was your weekend? Pretty good? Now that it's Monday, we've got a fresh batch of deals for you. The Roku Ultra is on sale, plus a couple of TP-Link smart home bundles, a projector from Anker, and then some.
When Android Police reviewed the Anker Nebula Capsule in April 2018, we said it was "almost certainly the best portable projector you can buy, but it commands a high price." That price just got a lot more reasonable, though, with a sale that brings the soda can-sized smart projector to 5 on Amazon — $85 off its original $350 price. The Nebula Capsule runs Android 7.1.2, so there are plenty of apps available, and it lasts around four hours on a single charge, or 30 hours in Bluetooth speaker mode. Plus, the super portable little gadget's build quality really impressed our own Corbin Davenport. To nab it at the reduced price, enter CAPSULEV at checkout, and make sure to do so before the sale ends on October 30th.

Screens on phones have been getting larger and larger, but they're not really big enough to watch a movie with some friends. On the other hand, a widescreen TV or a home theater projector can get you a pretty great cinema experience, but you can say goodbye to any vestige of portability. A good compromise is something like a pico projector, which can typically project an image larger than all but the largest of TVs while still being small enough to throw in your bag.Anker's Nebula Capsule pico projector is an impressively small projector (it's roughly the size of a soda can) that manages to project an image up to 100 inches across, and it's currently on sale on Amazon for $279 with coupon ACAPSULE [Update: The new coupon code is 4CAPSULE, which brings the price down to $277.99.] — a $70 saving off its MSRP of $349. The Capsule had already gone on sale last week for $296, but this is the lowest price we've seen so far since its initial Indiegogo campaign.
The Nebula Capsule can project an image up to 100 inches across with 100 ANSI lumens of brightness, and though its rather low resolution of 854 by 480 pixels is nothing to write home about, it's in line with other projectors of its size. Anker says its 5200 mAh battery is capable of up to 4 hours of continuous video playback, and can even be recharged using a portable battery pack via micro-USB. The projector can also double up as 360-degree Bluetooth speaker, lasting for up to 30 hours of playtime.
Anker also sells a larger portable projector called the Nebula Mars, which is in many ways a sort of older brother to the Capsule. While the Mars easily beats the Capsule in terms of brightness and resolution, it's also heavier, larger, older, and more expensive, and it runs Android 4.4 instead of Android 7.1 like the Capsule. Corbin reviewed the Mars back in August, and while he did like the hardware, he felt its software left something to be desired.
Last year, mobile accessory company Anker released its first portable projector, the Nebula Mars. It was roughly the size of a lunch box, with powerful JBL speakers, great video quality, and Android built-in. The hardware was great, but the ancient version of Android (4.4.4, to be precise), lack of Play Store support, and high price made the product hard to recommend.Not long after, Anker announced a smaller version, called the Nebula Capsule. It's roughly the size of a soda can, and works as both a projector and a Bluetooth speaker. It's almost certainly the best portable projector you can buy, but it commands a high price.
Anker's projector brand, Nebula, released the Nebula Mars earlier this year. If you read our review, you'll know it was a pretty solid portable projector, but the software experience left a bit to be desired. Today, Anker launched the Nebula Capsule on Indiegogo, a smaller projector with (what seems to be) much improved software.
