How much space do you have? Ultra short throw laser is considered the kino of projector tech due to its fidelity but costs an arm and a leg. However it can operate within 20" of your desired screen wall. Short throw is good but if you're gonna spend the money you may as well go ultra short throw laser.
You could get one of the old school projectors for a lot cheaper but then you need more space. What's nice though is basically every modern projector can automatically resize and reshape to a wall.
Tldr: ultra short throw laser is expensive but quiet and minimalist and the preferred experience.
Standard projectors are good enough to use but they can be loud, hot, and hard to adjust the image sharpness just right
Lumens: minimum 1000
Price points: UST laser 2,000$ as a floor is a good base point
A really good standard projectors closer to 300$ these days tbh.

If you want daylight direct sun viewing you're almost certainly gonna need a laser projector however light absorption cloths for standard projectors have gotten really good too.
The Chinese stuff is misleading fluff but if you can find a proper review testing it's true specs on YouTube they can sometimes just be a good projector but because of China they have to advertise like r-slurs with fake specs cuz everyone else does
