What Makes Beecube's Young Start-up Stand Out on Shark Tank?
Beecube is a popular budget smart projector brand that has garnered much attention from young consumers recently. Founded and led by Phan Anh Vu, the brand has achieved considerable success by establishing a strong user community through attentive customer care and offering quality products at affordable prices.Notably, in Season 6 of Shark Tank, this brand secured the first golden ticket from Shark Minh Beta and invested 100 million for exclusive negotiations. With Shark Minh Beta's offer of 8 billion for a 22.5% stake, Beecube concluded a dramatic deal for the Vietnamese smart projector brand.Modern Design with Unique Retro Style
First, let's unbox the product, the Beecube Xtreme 2 smart projector comes in a simple box, with the image of the Beecube projector and its key specifications printed prominently on the back. Inside, we have accessories such as the power cord and smart remote control.
The Beecube Xtreme 2 boasts a completely new design, distinct from the previous generation. The product features a modern design with sleek and sturdy lines. The machine's casing is made of high-quality ABS plastic. Additionally, the projector maintains the familiar dominant white tone, but has been revamped with an impressive black painted mask.
The new design of the Beecube Xtreme 2 brings a more luxurious and modern look to the product. This projector easily blends into any living space, from the living room and bedroom to the office.
The control button on the Beecube Xtreme 2 only has a power on/off button, but don't worry, as there is a smart remote control Magic Stick that can handle all tasks like a 100% Vietnamese virtual assistant, Kiki. It helps to command opening applications or even searching for content without having to press each letter on the virtual keyboard.But the most useful feature that I find is the 'air mouse' support, where you just need to move the control to have the mouse cursor move in the direction you want, quite similar to the feature on LG smart TV remotes that you usually use.
Surrounding the body of Beecube Xtreme 2 is a cleverly designed system of alternating heat dissipation slots, enhancing heat dissipation efficiency during prolonged use. The side is highlighted by a fairly large bass speaker promising sound quality beyond expectations.
Say goodbye to bulky tripod stands with the new flexible stand design of Beecube Xtreme 2. Typically, smart projectors are equipped with fixed stands, making it difficult for users to change the projection position. With Beecube Xtreme 2, you can easily adjust the projector's height to suit your usage needs through Beecube's Standii stand.
The Standii stand is integrated into the projector, featuring a compact yet sturdy design. You can adjust the projector's height from 100mm to 180mm, suitable for all usage needs, from watching movies, playing games to working.
With the Standii stand, you can effortlessly place the projector in any position in the room, even on the table, bookshelf,... without worrying about tilting or tipping. This allows you to enjoy a seamless entertainment experience, uninterrupted by technical issues.Many Modern and Intelligent Features

Equipped with a lens brightness of 850 ANSI and Full HD 1080P resolution, the Beecube Xtreme 2 supports screen projection up to 130 inches, which is quite impressive for a smart projector in the price range of around 7 million dong. With 850 ANSI brightness, the Beecube Xtreme 2 can project clear and sharp images, even in medium-light conditions such as in a dimly lit bedroom, you can still enjoy viewing.
In real-life experience, the Beecube Xtreme 2 delivers excellent image projection capabilities. The displayed images are bright and clear, allowing viewers to fully enjoy movies and entertainment programs. The color display of the Beecube Xtreme 2 is also impressive, with eye-catching colors, sufficiently high contrast, and no blurred edges.However, I evaluate that this machine achieves the best quality within the range of projection from 100 inches. If enlarged to the maximum of 130 inches, I noticed the image becomes slightly blurry.To optimize the projection quality, you should choose a surface with enough space and prioritize a white wall surface because colored surfaces will significantly affect the contrast and are prone to color distortion.
The Optical Sealed Engine technology helps the projector to be 20% brighter than conventional smart projectors and effectively solves the problem of dust entering the lens, causing screen spots and LCD damage. To optimize the lifespan and quality of the lens, gently wipe the lens with a cloth to remove dirt or fingerprints.
