Back to: Pepcom Home Now! (May 2023)

Xgimi is #1 in consumer projectors in China and Japan (market share) where space is a luxury most people don’t have. Even their name means eXtreme Performance (X) in limited spaces (gimi), and they live up to that by packing extreme amounts of features in a small amount of space.

In Asia at least, projectors are used over monitors because bedrooms lack space for tables. And since many are gamers who are picky about specs, Xgimi does their best to accommodate with high resolution, fast refresh rates, and other areas of performance.

Here’s a quick rundown on the products they showcased:

Aura (4K Laser Projector)

Top-of-the-line, award winning premium product. Very short distance needed from the wall.

• Ultra short-throw – 120” size screen when 11.7” (less than 1 foot!) away from the wall
• Super clear, 4K resolution
• 2400 ANSI lumen brightness, 20,000 hour lamp lifespan
• Color gamut: 90% REC.709, 80% DCI-P3
• 2 Harman Kardon speakers @15W each (2 tweeters/2 woofers)
• Integrated AndroidTV, Google Assistant, Chromecast and apps

The size is a little smaller than a PlayStation 5 and costs around $2,000 US.

HORIZEN Pro (4K Home Projector)

This is Xgimi’s flagship home projector for movies and gaming. While you need more distance from the wall for a bigger image (vs the Aura laser projector), you get a higher quality image and lower latency for gaming.

First launched 2-3 years ago and is the size of a small baby’s head. It has a 1/4”-20 tripod mount on the bottom and priced around $1,300 US.

Halo+ (1080P Portable Projector)

This is Xgimi’s flagship portable projector with a built-in battery.

• Auto keystone and screen alignment, Auto focus

• Battery life: 2.5 hours
• 2 Harman Kardon speakers @5W each

MoGo 2 Pro (1080P Super Portable Projector)

Xgimi’s most recent model; a 1080p portable, weighing only 2.5 lbs.

• 40” – 200” size screen max @1080p resolution
