We test all sorts of star projectors
With so many star projectors flooding the market now, thanks to TikTok and Instagram campaigns, it can be difficult to know which one to choose. We have compiled a guide of the best star projectors, but new models are constantly appearing. We continue to monitor the market for unique models with different or interesting functionality. One such model is the Pikoy Galaxy Projector, which surprised us with its low price of less than $20. In this article, we will review the Pikoy Galaxy Projector and share our thoughts on whether it is worth it.
Pikoy Galaxy Projector: Design ★★★½
The Pikoy Galaxy Projector is available in four colors: black, white, navy blue, and pale pink. It is smaller than other star projectors we have reviewed, about the size of a palm. Despite its small size, it is lightweight and easy to move around with one hand. The projector does not come with a stand, but it has two flat areas on the base that prevent it from rolling and allow you to position it in two different ways. The device also features backlit function buttons, making it easy to change controls in the dark.
Pikoy Galaxy Projector: Performance ★★★★
We were pleasantly surprised by the performance of the Pikoy Galaxy Projector. Despite its small size and low price, it produces bright and vivid lights that can fill a room. The projector is capable of flooding your space with patterns of color and laser stars, creating a visually pleasing environment. However, compared to more customizable models, the Pikoy projector has its limitations. You can still adjust the combinations of lights, rotation speed, and the presence of stars, but the options are not as extensive.
Pikoy Galaxy Projector: Functionality ★★★★
The Pikoy Galaxy Projector offers basic functionality and does not come with advanced features such as an app or voice control. The built-in Bluetooth speaker is of decent quality and can be used to play podcasts or other audio content. The projector comes with a remote control that allows you to customize lights, rotation speed, volume, and built-in sounds. It also offers a sleep timer function, which can be set to turn off the unit after two, four, or six hours. The projector includes 15 built-in sounds, making it suitable for use as a sleep aid.
Should I buy the Pikoy Galaxy Projector?
If you are looking for a star projector that offers good value for money, the Pikoy Galaxy Projector is a great option. Despite its low price, it performs well and can transform the ambiance of an entire room. Its compact design also makes it suitable for those with limited shelf space. However, if you prefer a rechargeable unit or want to project scientific disc-based images, there may be better options available. Overall, the Pikoy Galaxy Projector is a great holiday gift or stocking stuffer for space enthusiasts, children, gamers, movie fans, or party throwers.
