Back to School? Why Projectors & Invisible Earbuds Are the Ultimate Dorm Upgrade

Small room, big semester. If you’re heading back to school, a compact projector and invisible earbuds can turn any dorm into a smarter, calmer, and more social space—without blowing your budget or your floor-mate’s patience.


Why Projectors Beat TVs in a Dorm

  • Space-saving: No bulky TV. A projector lives in a drawer when not in use.
  • Bigger screen when you need it: Up to 100–150” for movies, sports, or presentations.
  • Flexible setup: Desk, shelf, mini-tripod, or ceiling mount. Move as your room changes.

Great picks: Vision Beam™ 2 (small rooms, dark environment), Vision Beam™ Pro 2 (balanced brightness), Vision Beam™ Max (portable battery, up to 150”).


Why Invisible Earbuds Are a Dorm Essential

FAQs

Is a projector practical in a tiny dorm?
Yes—store it when not in use, and project 100”+ when you need it.

Can I watch late at night without bothering anyone?
Yes—pair the projector to ViSound Drift and keep brightness low.

Do I need a screen?
A screen boosts clarity/contrast. In dorms, a foldable 100–120” is perfect.
