- Aurzen initially unveiled its tri-fold portable projector at CES 2025.
- Following its successful Kickstarter campaign, it's now available on Amazon and has already started offering discounts.
- Using the ultra-portable Zip projector, you can display content either horizontally or vertically.
The 2025 Consumer Electronics Show may have concluded some time ago, yet roughly four months later, one of the most bizarre items showcased at the event is now readily available for purchase and has begun shipping.
The Aurzen ZIP is a tri-fold ultra-portable projector, similar to the Samsung Freestyle appeared quite cumbersome. During a short showcase at the event, it impressed us primarily due to its remarkable uniqueness. It can be ordered at present from Amazon. .
The price is set at $399.99; Prime members will get free delivery. However, should you choose the Gold hue, you can apply a discount of $20 from a coupon available on the webpage.
This reduces the cost of the compact projector to $379.99. However, if you prefer Gray, you will have to pay the total price of $399.99.
Aurzen’s ZIP lets you cast a 720pHD screen on nearly any surface from an integrated DLP projector. It promises up to 100 ANSI lumens of brightness and even has stereo speakers built-in, though considering the size, we wouldn’t expect super-powerful audio.
It includes a good range of connectivity options, featuring Bluetooth 5.4 for screen mirroring or linking to another audio system. Additionally, using a Wi-Fi dongle, you can employ CastPlay to interact with other devices and stream content.
What’s more impressive is that the ZIP has the capability to stream horizontal content, making it ideal for enjoying movies, TV series, or sporting events. Additionally, its adaptability increases since it can also display vertical material in a 3:2 aspect ratio.
This allows you to link your iPhone or Android device so you can enjoy TikToks, YouTube Shorts, or Instagram Reels on a larger display—whichever location you choose for setting up that large screen. The gadget includes an integrated gyroscope enabling it to transition smoothly between landscape and portrait orientations. According to an Amazon listing with an Apple-like description, the Zip comes equipped with Auto Keystone—which promises a sharp image—and 'Zero-Lag Focus.'
Despite having an extensive range of features, don't expect the Aurzen Zip to provide the highest quality image available. It's likely going to be inferior to the Samsung Freestyle.
Instead, this will be perfect for travelers or busy individuals who desire to enjoy both landscape and portrait-oriented content through an enhanced viewing experience. Perhaps, you're commuting and wish to relax in bed while watching a series projected onto your ceiling.
This aspect highlights the design, which is truly impressive—the Zip boasts a fully folding triple-panel structure for a projector that tips the scales at merely 9.8 ounces or 280 grams. With dimensions of 3.1 x 3.1 x 1 inches when folded, it slightly exceeds the size of a standard Post-it note. You can achieve an optimal viewing angle by adjusting the upper section, where both the projector and primary control buttons are situated.

In Grey, however, if you choose Gold, you can use the $20 off coupon from the page to bring the price down to only $379.99.
