The catch
The marketing boasts of 'native 1080p' resolution because they can't publish the brightness without revealing it's unusable in anything but total darkness.

Spec, translated

The 'Native 1080P' spec means the projector's internal panel has 1920x1080 physical pixels, ensuring a sharper image than projectors that just 'support' 1080p. This guarantees resolution, but says nothing about the critical factors of brightness, contrast, or color accuracy.

Lab notes
The observations that actually change the buying decision.
01
The complete absence of a brightness rating in ANSI Lumens is a deliberate omission. Expect a dim image that is only viable in a completely dark room with no ambient light.
02
Achieving native 1080p resolution at this price requires extreme cost-cutting on optics. The image will be sharpest in the center but expect significant softness and color fringing at the edges and corners.
03
Integrated 'Hi-Fi' speakers in a chassis this small and cheap are anything but. They are functional for hearing dialogue in a quiet room, but the sound will be thin, and you should plan on using the Bluetooth output.
04
This is a 'dumb' projector. There is no internal operating system, so the cost of a streaming stick (Fire TV, Chromecast, Roku) must be factored in if you don't already have one.

Why you should buy

This is for someone who needs a cheap, portable display for casual, temporary use in a pitch-black room. Consider it for a kid's bedroom movie night, a dorm room, or projecting holiday decorations on a wall, where performance is secondary to price.

Why you should skip

Anyone seeking a primary display to replace a TV or for use in a living room should skip this. The unstated (and certainly low) brightness will be frustrating in any room with windows or ambient light. Users sensitive to image quality will be disappointed.
