Yes, please see here!:
Through years of R&D, our patent granted Splay material science technology is the only display (projection or otherwise) that can fully fold without permanent wrinkles. We have also received patents for the only one-step (and extremely durable) expand and collapse display. You can check out some of our granted U.S. patents here.
We developed (and patented!) the first type of projection screen that significantly mitigates wrinkles when collapsed. Combined with the tension applied by the arms, this ensures a flat screen surface that does not interfere with the image!
You can easily connect your phone, tablet, laptop, gaming console, etc. to Splay via HDMI or wireless adapters like Chromecast. If your device does not output HDMI, adapters are readily available, like the Apple Lightning to HDMI adapter for iPhone. A USB-C to HDMI adapter, included in your Splay box, can be used to connect to Android Phones, latest iPhones, and the latest MacBooks and iPad Pro. Moving forward, every box will include a tripod and USB-C to HDMI.
We only recommend using Splay outside in shaded areas and/or close to dusk/dawn and at night. Splay works great in most indoor environments! Like all projectors, you just want to avoid direct light, like direct sunlight and very direct bright lights.
There’s a kickstand at the back of Splay that you can use to adjust the angle.
Yes, you can use a powerbank. Just make sure it supports 15 V PD like this one.
Yes, Splay can be used in portrait mode. Windows and Mac have ways to adjust orientation to portrait. With iOS and Android, you need to use 3rd party dongles.
You can easily (less than 1 minute) remove our patented display technology and, with the press of a button, flip the image and project on a wall. Projector mode also features vertical auto-keystone correction, so if the projector is tilted, it will automatically flatten the image on the wall. When you need to use Splay in display mode, it is just as easy to put the display back.
Splay’s display is 3 times bigger than most laptop, USB monitor, and tablet displays. You can see a reference comparison here and a tabular comparison of 16:9 aspect ratio screens here.
Splay is a MASSIVE upgrade: higher resolution, significantly increased brightness, lighter weight, re-imagined industrial design, and a new mode to use as a projector.
Here’s Splay compared to Alex’s 15-inch laptop: View Comparison.
Splay’s highest brightness in display mode is 800 nits, and in projector mode, it is 260 lumens.
Splay uses LEDs rated to last 20,000 hours, allowing for extensive use over many years.
No, but there are many options for different audio out on various devices.
We are using Texas Instrument’s DLP230NP DLP® 0.23 1080p DMD. For more details, see the TI product page.

1. Make sure Splay is not connected to any charging cable.
2. Take a thin pin like a SIM card pin, and insert it into the tiny circular hole right underneath the type C port. Do it multiple times and durations from one second to 5 seconds, just to make sure you activate the reset.
3. Charge the unit using the original Splay charger, or any type C PD charger that's able to output 15V, such as the MacBook charger. Charge for at least 20 min before trying to turn on the unit.
Splay is covered by a one (1) year manufacturer’s warranty, covering defects caused solely by our own manufacturing, workmanship, or assembly process. Damage caused by the user is not covered under this Warranty Policy.
