ViewSonic M1 Pro (2021)

An ultra-portable 720p LED projector with an integrated battery, designed around USB-C: one USB-C port is a DisplayPort Alt Mode video input that can project from and trickle-charge (5V/2A) a phone over a single cable, while a second USB-C is the 15V/3A DC power input for the projector itself. Wired HDMI is the older HDMI 1.4 standard (HDCP 1.4), and a USB-A 2.0 reader handles local media. Audio goes out via a 3.5mm jack or Bluetooth 4.2; there is no optical output or Ethernet.
