XGIMI H2 True 1080p Movie Projector 4K Supported Smart Projector, 1350 ANSI Lumens Home Theater Projector, Integrated Sound Bar, Auto Focus, Auto Keystone Correction, Android OS

I have tested several projectors a couple of years ago and this was by far the best performer amongst the contenders. I have tested cheapo ones $100 price range to $400 price range Nebulas, Epsons and others around $600 and this one. I was torn between this and the Epson EF12. The sound in the Epson was better, but the image quality and brightness on the Xgimi wins. Also, the Epson had a terrible latency for games while the Xgimi has very low latency and makes gaming very fun. We play Nintendo switch and PS4 connected to this projector and a huge screen make a great experience. Racing games with a racing wheel are amazing on our 110” projector screen.My only gripe is the remote control is not backlit. Very annoying when watching a movie in the dark and I want to hit the volume button but accidentally hit the home button.Tip: I use this in our family room as well as on our outdoor patio. I have fixed setup on both places using photo camera mounts. I mounted one photo camera mount on the projector and I have two receiving mounts mounted on projector ceiling pole one in our family room and one on outside patio. I can easily take this projector outside for watching movies with kids, parties etc.Note: I dropped mine one time, on our outdoor patio. It fell from my hands as I was securing it to the ceiling, it bounced off a chair and hit the pavers. The top came off, and the edges were damaged. This was a year ago. I reinstalled the top, taped it and still going strong and no issues. This thing is well made.

Update 2:XGimi has continued to improve the picture with each update. However, my unit had a 19" fall (the stand tipped over) and stopped focusing. The fall was not covered under warranty. XGIMI offered to replace it at a very reasonable price with a refurbished unit. Their commucation was a little off but less than two weeks later, the replacement has arrived and was at the latest firmware version. I have since purchsed their recommended stand for the projector as the tripod I used was a little unstable.Update:I've since upgraded my screen to en Elite Screens 120" Yard Master 2 and WOW! The picture is substantially improved. The picture is from that screen, I do recomment you add a Firestick if you are wanting Netflix. Thats one service not available on their Android TV App. The 3D works well after the Firmware update. It reads MKS files from a USB flash drive formated NTFS.Original Review:Wow!I bought this as an upgrade to an Optoma HD70 projector i bought in 2006 which has a dimming bulb. I started doing neighborhood movie nights and it just wasn't quite up to the task. I decided if I was going to upgrade, I might as well go with 4K and LED so I won't have bulb problems in the future. My screen is a cheap outdoor 100" diagonal screen.Set up was a snap. I upgraded the firmware and then started playing. I didn't notice the "green" or "blue" balance others complained about so maybe the new firmware compensated for it. I also didn't notice a low contrast problem but I did tweak my settings to my liking.Pros* The Sound is excellent but a little bass deficient. It'll be fine though for a Garage movie night.* It looks and feels like a quality built product. At 6 pounds, it has a little weight to it,* It mounted easily on my inexpensive camera tripod making it a simple set up for movie night.* BlueTooth audio OUT, works great and I tested with my BlueTooth receiver so I can use it outside without connecting any wires. (tripping hazards)* Streaming is simple, just like my smart tv.* Its quiet, at least to my 56 year old ears.* Autofocus is excellentCons:* HDMI BluRay is grainy unless you feed it UHD then its perfect. The upscaling needs tweaking by XGIMi, hopefully in the next update. Streaming even 480p doesn't have this issue. - Greatly improved with latest firmware.* The overall image, while excellent does suffer from a sharpness that makes it feel a little harsh but not much different from my 4K Samsung television.* Auto-keystone over compensates on my screen and I need to fine tune it. Although, it does give a nice proportioned image to start with. This may be my cheap Walmart screen causing the issue.* I'm not a Netflix subscriber but I do have Britbox which is not natively supported. - Britbox is now native.* Rainbow effect. If you leave motion compensation ON, you may experience them. Off, they're just an occassional fleeting thing and not really any different from my old Optoma DLP.If you don't mind the HDMI graininess/noise, then this is an excellent choice especially if you mostly stream your content and want a portable/semi-permanent solution. If you primarily use HDMI 1080p and below sources, you might want to look at the Horizon which is a 1080p projector.I gave it a 4 star for picture quality because of the graininess of HDMI input and 4 star for value because a speakerless 4K projector may be a better choice for you.

I seldom wrote any reviews for any products due to my busy schedule. But this projector impressed me and it helped my kids' eyes so much, I really want to share my experience with you guys.The Pandemic forced our kids to study from home, which made their screen time to be way much more than before. Doctors warned us about kids' eyes for the long on-line study time and said that projectors are better than iPad/computer screen, as their screen are farther away. And the doctors also mentioned that if the room ambient brightness is closer to the screen brightness, it may make eyes less stressful. Then we spent a lot of time to search for the right projectors for our kids to try to save their eyes. After so much searching and trying on more than 10 different projectors, we finally found this one that is so good!The best part of the projector is the brightness. We want to keep the curtain open and let some sunlight shining into kids' rooms to keep them healthy. But for most of the projectors, if there are sunlight directly into the room, the pictures became not clear. The XGIMI Horizontal Pro is the only one that even with some direct sunlight into the same room(as long as it does not directly shining not the same wall), the picture quality is still very good. Before we got this projector, typically kids complained that their eyes are tired after a full afternoon on-line classes, but they never complain again after we use this one. Even when we asked them if they were tired, they sometime answered that their shoulder or arm were tired, but never said their eyes were tired any more. Our recent eye doctor visit also confirmed that their eyes are still good. Still wish the Pandemic will go away very soon, so kids can be back to school. But we don't worry about kids' eye that much anymore after we got this wonderful projector. Thanks a lot, XGIMI company, for producing this wonderful product to help my kids' eyes!!The projector also have excellent video quality. Now every weekend, our whole family get together to watch a new movie together. The video quality made us feel we are watching it from a movie theater. The Pandemic blocked us from going to any movie theaters for over one year already. But we did not miss it that much, as we found a good way to watch the movies already. The audio quality is also good. We did not bother to plug the projector into our expensive home stereo system, as the audio quality is fine and we are a little lazy-;)Another good feature worthy mentioning is the easy set up and convenience. We primarily use the projector for kids on-line classes, but its easy to move the projector around and everything setting and tuning are automatic. The auto-focusing is fast and accurate.I have been leading a couple of core product design engineering teams in Apple and then in Tesla for more than 10 years. Most products from other companies in my eyes can only be rated around 2 to 3. But I really like this XGIMI projector, as its core functionality and overall quality are so impressive. As a matter of fact, I asked our recruiters to pay attention to engineers from this XGIMI company, as they did a fantastic job on this projector.Highly recommend this wonderful projector. And thanks a lot for this projector for helping my kids' eyes!
