Native Full HD with 4D keystone and dual-band Wi-Fi

YABER's Pro Y9 page identifies native 1920 × 1080 resolution, 4D/4P keystone adjustment, dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0. The checked page does not establish an ANSI brightness figure, optical lens shift, throw ratio, battery operation or built-in streaming apps. The decision therefore turns on its documented native pixels and wireless setup claims, with room fit and light output left unresolved.

GPX specifies native 800 × 480, dual HDMI, VGA, USB, microSD and composite AV, plus manual focus and keystone adjustment. Bluetooth sends audio to a speaker; it does not carry projected video. GPX lists LED illumination and an external power adapter, but no ANSI-labeled brightness value. Its small native image and broad wired input set define a low-detail, source-dependent use.
