About this deal

Android TV means support for Google Assistant, which you can use via the voice remote. You can search for or launch apps, find new content and ask general questions, such as what the weather is like. Fan Noise. The Horizon Pro is very quiet (XGIMI has it rated at 30dB). In my room at a distance of three feet from the projector from both the sides and behind, I wasn't able to measure anything above my room's noise floor of 30dB. At a foot behind the projector (where the fan exhaust is) I measured 34 dB. Whether you’re gaming or watching the big game, smooth motion is crucial. The Horizon Pro delivers smoother motion thanks to its MEMC frame interpolation technology. It uses specialised algorithms to prevent image flutter, giving those fast-moving images a sharper, crisper definition. Finally, while I love these Bluetooth remotes, my understanding is that XGimi doesn't offer any infrared options for control which can make using a universal remote control darn near impossible. They don't offer IP control either. So, you can't tie it into any existing remote controller that you may already own and MUST use the XGimi remote, which is really a sad oversight I think on their part.

Compatible with HDR10 and HLG formats, the Horizon Pro is the ideal projector for getting the best out of your movies, games and TV broadcasts. HDR10 and HLG deliver greater brightness and contrast, for a truly life-like picture. These technologies work seamlessly to deliver a more natural picture on the big screen. Love this review. I am a pretty firm believer that XGimi is leading the way with their LED projectors and others are playing a bit of catch up. They are using LED modules that are delivering what was unheard of in terms of brightness just a few years ago. Even if it can't reach 2,200 lumens, a decently calibrated 1,100 lumens is plenty for a 120" or larger screen in a dark room. Maybe even a 150"+ screen after dark if you are okay with normal movie theater brightness. The Wall Color Adaption feature needs to be enabled in the system settings to take effect. Once activated, it can calibrate the picture based on wall colors with a color temperature ranging from 3000K to 15000K. However, the calibration effect may vary depending on the wall color. For optimal results, we recommend using it in dimly lit environments. For the best viewing experience. we recommend using a projection size of 60-120 inches. Exceeding this range may affect the quality of your projected content. The display quality may vary based on product usage habits and environmental conditions.

Performance

hours is the theoretical lifespan of the light source. The actual lifespan may vary due to differences in environmental conditions, product usage, and the mode selected. Brightness. The brightest light mode on the XGIMI Horizon Pro is Performance, which I measured at 1,521 ANSI lumens in Movie image mode. It adds a distinctive green tint to the image. The Bright brightness setting is 78.8% that of Performance at 1,199 ANSI lumens. Standard, Eye Protection, and Custom all measured basically the same—around 74.5% of the brightness of Performance, or 1,133 ANSI lumens. Color and white brightness were virtually equal with color brightness only off by 1.45%. Generally, the 2200 lumens brightness is good enough to watch during the day, where you can get around a 60-inch picture (you need to put the projector around 5ft away). This also means you can watch outside when the full sun has gone, starting at around a 30-inch picture. When it gets fully dark, you can go as big as the projector will allow (300 inches).

If you need something you can put in a bag, then there are smaller, portable projectors with batteries that make better travel companions – and higher-quality home cinema projectors for those looking for a more permanent installation. For crisp, dynamic sound, built in, who better than audio experts Harman Kardon to deliver. Bespoke stereo speakers produce punchy and spacious sound. Combined with DTS Studio Sound Technology, you get an immersive surround sound effect for enveloping sound. As with any projector, it's generally better to avoid digital adjustments for keystone distortion, image size, or position, because they lower brightness and can introduce artifacts in some images. However, they are tempting time savers. A decent compromise is to use them when you need to set up in a hurry after moving the projector, but turn them off and use manual adjustments—except for focus—for permanent or semi-permanent setup, and when you're not in a rush. (Xgimi) There’s no projector stand built in, so you’ll either need to prop up the projector to get the right angle, or you can use the thread-mount on its underside to attach it to a tripod. The latter is a good option, giving you an easy way to move and position the projector.

Verdict: It Has Vision...Dolby Vision, That Is

XGlMl makes every effort at the time of publication to ensure the accuracy of product information it provides. Due to subsequent changes involving product batches, production, and supply factors, it may be necessary for XGlMl to make changes and adjustments to text and images so that they match the performance, specifications, indexes, and components of the actual product. Product information is subject to such changes and adjustments without notice. There are four manual controls along the top of the projector: on/off, play/pause, volume up, and volume down. By itself, the Horizon Pro functions well as a stand-alone Bluetooth speaker. Android TV and Chromecast Built-in also make it a breeze to cast and play music from any device. Final Remarks
