Nebula Capsule Max vs Capsule II What’s Better?
The quality of the Nebula Max and Capsule II is top in the portable projector market. If you can spend the extra $100, then I would definitely pick Capsule II over the Max.
But if you’re hesitant to pay the full price for a Capsule II, then I think you’ll be happy with the Capsule Max. The Max is capable of putting on a really great movie night or some enhanced big-screen gaming on a PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo Switch.
That supports my general rule of thumb with portable projectors: you get what you pay for.
