Your questions are a bit too generic for me to answer.

Let me ask: How large is the room ie how far will you be sitting from your screen?

What style/type of screen are you planning to purchase.
Are you planning to use an existing av receiver for sound and video switching between devices or will you be using the projector for sound etc like a TV?
How much is your expected budget?

Answer those and I can better figure out what it is that you actually want.

distance between two walls is 106 inches. hence distance from wall to where i would seat may be 95 inches. the purpose is to watch some apps like youtube, netflix for limited hours before sleeping. I would like to go for lower budget as i found few highly rated ones are available on Amazon under USD 120

I'm still using a XGIMI H1. It's a bit long in the tooth, 4k 'compatible' but not true 4k output. The chinese firmware/ menu was a hassle for me, not understanding simplified chinese - I couldn't get it to consistently connect to my NAS. I hooked up a Chromecast to the HDMI and it's working well now. The newer XGIMI's seem pretty good too.

Sort of related. A long time ago I got a set of Parrot Zikmu speakers with airmiles/ credit card points. Great Starck aesthetics but terrible connectivity (bluetooth and wifi) and they went back into their box for a long time until I picked up a few of the audio Chromecasts when google sold them off cheap when discontinuing them. Now I use them for playing Spotify through and they work very well.
