XGIMI Horizon Ultra

This could well be the most exciting new projector of 2023. What it brings to the table for the money is simply astonishing. High brightness, excellent color accuracy, a sharp lens with a bit of optical zoom, and a polished user interface make it easy to recommend for anyone getting into projection.

I use one at home with a 150-inch screen that’s simply painted on a wall. The screen cost me under $100 in supplies from Home Depot. To my eyes, with the lights out it looks like a giant TV with sports and games and shows, or else like a full-on movie theater screen with movies. I watch Eagles football games on it and marvel at the fidelity of today’s 1080/60p and 4K sports broadcasts, which look good even at these huge screen sizes.

XGIMI uses a hybrid laser-led light source that avoids laser speckles but is bright and vibrant. The on-screen image is practically free of any visible artifacts and unquestionably of cinematic quality. If this is your budget and you have room for one projector in your life, there’s a strong argument to be made it should be this XGIMI.

Thanks to its portability all you need is a blank wall to enjoy a big screen viewing experience. If you’re watching a movie, be sure to turn out the lights.
