ZTE also today unveiled the Spro Plus portable smart projector, following the Spro 2.
Spro Plus helps business associates and friends meet anywhere at any time, with its voice conference, projection, touch-screen and visual design features. The external USB camera also allows for multi-party video communication via applications like Skype.
One of the Spro Plus’ highlights is a larger, 8.4-inch Android AMOLED touch-screen with 2K resolution, paired with a 12100mAH battery. The Spro Plus will be available in both a Wi-Fi-only version as well as a Wi-Fi and 4G LTE version.
Spro Plus' visual capabilities include its vertical and horizontal keystone correction, which is its ability to project onto any place in any direction without distorting the image. It uses laser instead of LED technology to project at 500lm. This generation of Spro comes with an improved projection ratio. Placing the Spro Plus 2.4 meters away from any surface will project an image up to 80 inches across.
When it comes to audio, the Spro Plus features a JBL Audio System, which includes two 4w speakers and a voice pickup via high HARMAN sub-miniature microphones. Its ability to detect voices more than five meters from Spro Plus makes it easy to conduct group meetings in any location.
The projector will be available globally by summer 2016.
