Amazon Just Knocked Almost $300 Off the Portable Mega Nebula Mars 3 Projector

It's almost spooky season, which means it's time to kick off a scary movie marathon. If you want to take the marathon outside or don't have a TV, a projector is a great option.   

The Nebula Mars 3 is a slightly larger version of CNET's overall best portable projector this year, and right now, you can grab it for a whopping $280 off at Amazon. That drops the price to a record-low $770. But there's no telling how long this deal will last. If you're in the market for a new portable projector, we'd recommend getting your order in soon.

Nebula Mars 3 projector: $770 (Original price: $1,050) See at Amazon

This projector may be a bit larger than the top-rated Nebula Mars 3 Air, but at less than 10 pounds, you can still take it just about anywhere. It offers 1080p video resolution, 1,000 ANSI lumens of brightness and can project an image of up to 200 inches, so you can enjoy all your favorite shows and movies on a massive, immersive screen.

It also has 40-watt speakers and a built-in 185Wh battery, which provides up to five hours of playback that can also be used to charge your devices. Plus, it's designed for outdoor use, with IPX3 water resistance, dust resistance and drop protection up to 0.5 meters.

Why this deal matters

Anker is a trusted brand here at CNET, and its projectors are some of our overall favorites on the market right now. The Nebula Mars 3 is excellent for both indoor and outdoor use, and it's a pretty good bargain at $770 -- a record low this year.
