What a wonderful product!
By Zheng Gao on Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2021
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!

Very mixed experience, not for the sophisticated user who knows sound and video

Update March 2024: This item still sits on display next to my living room chair, a reminder of the costly (US$1,600) mistake of purchasing this projector. It lasted 14 months. After its total failure, XGIMI wants $340 in shipping charges, to and from Hong Kong, their only repair facility in the world. There are no supply sources for parts. I have given XGIMI nearly two years to make good in any way and all they offer is for me to spend more money for their products. Initially, I wrote an 8 page review after trying this XGIMI projector in the same house with an Epson Home Theater 3800. The latter is a complete work of mature technology delivering what it promises well and reliably. It is truly easy to use. The XGIMI is not a joy to use. It tauts 4K quality and Dolby sound, but it has neither Dolby Atmos nor Dolby Vision. It has insufficient contrast to operate during the daytime with good quality images. My other projectors do fine in the same location. It is terrible with lower quality streams, excellent with some high quality streams, at night in an unlit living room if you can use yours that way. We are using our 9th and 10th projectors. The first two are Epsons whose new bulbs cost more than the projectors are worth, below HD. The others all broke, failed and lie without attention from dodgy companies who do not honor their promises. Optoma, BenQ gave us lemons, in particular the former with a laser lamp and now over 1,000 broken pixels. They offer a request station for RMAs online but no way to get an RMA and no help pushing from the ninth month over into the 14th month, so no help. We are tired of these expenses and false claims, but we cannot spend every day of our sunset years trying to make things right. We confidently recommend the Epson HT 3800. It is a compromise for those of us who don't have $8,000 to get a reliable and competent projector. So this is a summary. We don't see reviews 8 pages long but wish there were some available.
