Aurzen D1R Roku Projector
Budget 1080p with Roku built in · Reviewed by Drew · amazon.com live, Sept 28 2026
Why it scored a 79
At $139.99, the Aurzen D1R is a native 1080p projector with Roku TV built in, so streaming works out of the box with no dongle. Value leads at 92 and Satisfaction matches it at 92 on the strength of 1,000-plus reviews averaging 4.6 stars, while Reliability sits at 90. Quality lands at 62 because the listing never states a lumen rating, which means a dark room is a requirement rather than an option, and the one-year warranty holds that component at 55. It suits a bedroom or basement movie wall on a tight budget, for anyone who values Roku's simplicity over brightness.

Should you buy the Aurzen D1R Roku Projector?
The Aurzen D1R Roku Projector is the cheapest way we rank to get a native 1080p movie wall with real streaming built in. At $139.99 it runs Roku TV, so Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu and YouTube work without a dongle, and autofocus plus auto keystone handle setup. It belongs in a bedroom or basement with the lights off. If you want brightness or a battery, you will need to spend more; if you want simple and cheap, this is it.
Where it earns its score
- Value is the top factor at 92. Native 1080p, Roku and auto setup for $139.99. Nothing else in the ranking gets close on price.
- Roku is easy. The interface is the same one on millions of TVs, works with Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri, and needs no subscription.
- Owners are happy. Satisfaction scores 92 and Reliability 90, unusually high for a projector at this price.
- Dolby Audio and Bluetooth out. Dual 5 W speakers, and Bluetooth 5.2 to send sound to a better speaker.
What to know first
- No lumen rating. The listing does not state brightness, and Quality scores 62 for that reason. Assume dark-room use only.
- Not portable. 4.6 lb, mains-powered at 60 W, no battery. It stays where you set it up.
- Warranty is the lowest ViperScore factor. One year, scoring 55.
