This time, I'm looking for suggestions for my son's bedroom. Instead of a flat screen TV, I am considering a small LED projector with built-in smart TV functions. He can project it to a blank wall opposite his bed. His room is mostly dim throughout the day and practically pitch dark at night, with the lights off. So the projector doesn't need to be very bright. Mounting is not an issue as there is a shelf above his headboard. The only constraint is that, it needs to be reasonably quiet. Being it near where he will be, sana it doesn't make a ton of fan noises.

We might also bring it along when we go camping.

Any recommendations?
isn't the image quality of the flat screen TV, superior to any projector's?

many years ago, when projectors were still very expensive, we needed video aid in the conference room. well, someone made some computations, inputing items like cost of monitor versus projector, size and quality of image, longevity, etc.
he concluded that getting the largest screen is cheaper and offers superior image, than getting the projector.
