    This projector gets the job done pretty well. czcams.com/users/postUgkxS9P8zTOcmQg-hH0QeUi3dspOLyYgQ6dH Bear in mind it's a mini projector but all things considered the picture quality is pretty good. The attached photo is of the projector projecting onto my white closet doors. I still have not messed with the settings but I can't wait for our first family movie night on a larger scale. If you have issues with volume not working with your firestick, go into volume settings and you will find your solution there.

    Excellent review! Thank you. One thing I'd like to add: I own an Xgimi Aura projector and my experience with Xgimi customer support has been second to none. Communication has been prompt, friendly, and extremely helpful. It's very comforting to know that there's a responsive safety net out there for my expensive China-sourced projector. The Aura is absolutely brilliant.
    Regarding the Elfin: 8.5' throw distance for a 100" diagonal screen.

    Thanks for such a detailed and useful review. I bought this projector to replace the one I had. I couldn't believe it.. For such a small projector, the quality of the pictures is amazing.its smart too The only complain I have is I tried to connect to echo studio via Bluetooth but it couldn't, no matter how many times I tried. Iam using optical cable.

    Looks great. I'm just surprised that it doesn't come with a carrying case consider it's portability is one of the major selling points and you're likely to move it around.

    • @Ramdapanda
      @Ramdapanda Před rokem +2

      An update after I had the projector set up for about 3 weeks. It works really great, the auto focus and keystone is a god send for my use case where it projects at an angle from my book shelf. Using a 91" screen which might be a tad to big for my room but there's a zoom feature that easily adjust the size without having to fiddle with key stones.
      The one problem I have though is that certain parts of the pictures lose focus from time to time. Especially the lower section (made clear by subtitles not being crisp). So far I've just assumed it's beacuse of the angle I'm projecting from, might look into this more if I get the energy for it.
      All in all though, great piece of gear.

    Was this sponsored? We’re you given the projector? Xgimi seems to be buying reviews (and some comments) on smaller channels. Like with Amazon, it destroys the legitimacy of reviews on then platform and also hurts honest reviewers.

  • @noe3024
    @noe3024 Před 2 lety +3

    Like the rest of its ilk, this projector is single-DLP. Single-DLP necessarily means sequential color, which is a 1920s-era technology that can produce massive amounts of headache-inducing rainbow effect (RBE) artifact for those sensitive to it and can't ignore it. No matter how fast a color filter wheel spins or discrete R, G, and B LEDs or lasers flash, the sequential nature will always produce RBE. Are you not going to comment about RBE or issue a missive about test viewing the wretched projector first in case one is sensitive to RBE? Just because a reviewer does not perceive RBE does not mean no-one does either.

      Epson projectors are exclusively 3-LCD and do not suffer from any RBE artifact generation that ALL single-DLP projectors like this xgimi are wont to produce. The only manufacturers of 3-chip projectors intended for home use are epson (3-LCD) and sony and jvc (both 3-LCoS). Please do not group single-DLP projectors with 3-chip; there is no comparison. Single-DLP uses sequential color, which is a quaint 1920s-era technology and as crappy.
