Anker has taken its already impressive Nebula X1 projector and supercharged it, creating a powerhouse of entertainment: the Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro. This isn’t just your average projector; it’s a fully integrated party system packed into a surprisingly portable (though hefty) package.
Imagine this: a 30 x 17 x 13.5-inch box housing a 4K projector, a 160W subwoofer, and a 160W soundbar system. That’s the Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro in a nutshell. Unveiled at IFA 2025, this beast weighs in at 72.4 pounds, but thankfully features a retractable handle and wheels for easy transport. The subwoofer cleverly floats within the unit to prevent vibrations from affecting the projected image, a smart design choice for such a powerful system.
But the audio doesn’t stop there. The 160W soundbar system is further enhanced by a pair of detachable 40W wireless satellite speakers for rear channels. Anker promises a 7.1.4 surround sound experience, even boasting Dolby Atmos support – a first for a portable projector of this nature. While the upward-firing channels might be less effective outdoors, the versatility is undeniable. Need just music? Switch to Bluetooth speaker mode and enjoy the powerful audio without the projection.
The projector itself is the same award-winning Nebula X1 we know and love. Its brilliant 3,500 ANSI lumen output from a triple laser light source, motorized swivel, optical zoom, quiet operation, and stunning image quality remain. This time around, it’s enhanced with an IP43 rating, providing protection from light rain and dust, making it even more versatile for outdoor use.
The Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro is slated for a Kickstarter launch on September 22nd, with a projected price tag between $4,000 and $5,000. Retail availability is expected around March 2026. This premium price reflects the all-in-one nature of this device, combining top-tier projection technology with a remarkably powerful and versatile sound system. While the price point is significant, those seeking a truly portable, all-in-one entertainment solution for parties, outdoor movie nights, or even home theater setups might find the X1 Pro worth the investment.
