I kind of agree with you that without doing side by sides most people would be absolutely blown away by almost every modern laser/led projector. XHU has some very good features like optical zoom and the hybrid light source and I think that should be commended. That said, if you're spending money (kind of a lot of money), I think getting the best of whatever is on the market makes sense. In this case XHU is the best when it comes to 3D performance and flexibility in placement, but has lower overall picture quality due to contrast issues. Anywho, thanks for the shoutout, great video as always :)

I’ve owned one of these for a month and I use it every day. It’s in our bedroom. It is 100% WAF 10 and VERY flexible in placement and, even though the contrast is relatively poor, we hardly notice it. I’m not sure if this was covered, but one thing worth buying this for is the EXCELLENT 3D performance. With the £21 XGIMI glasses this is the best out there!!

I remember a comedian talking about passengers in a plane complaining about bad wifi, he said "You're sitting in a chair... In the SKY!" It's the most amazing thing, but people don't get it.

Thanks Paul. Happy Saturday.

Your videos are great! You're funny and knowledgeable of your field, keep it up! :)

Another great video, although I was sorting something out when you were promoting your socials and I heard ‘the link to my exes is in the description’ without looking at the logos I did, for a minute think the video took a strange turn at the end 😂

i got the xgimi elfin a few months back, wife wasnt happy to start with but as soon as we watched a movie she loved it, im not to tech savvy when it comes to projectors this is my 1st one but myself, wife and all our kids love it

I like your projector vids Paul I really do, and I'm quite knowledgeable about projectors having used them for 20yrs now, but your perspective about lumens, contrast and so on has been undermined by the fact that you have an ALR vividstorm and that just makes all the difference to black levels (ie moving it down) which impacts perceived contrast (ie raising it). This is provided the projector has sufficient lumens to overcome the typical lower gain of the ALR screen. If you reviewed two projector products with measurable contrast differences on a decent quality 1.0-1.3 gain white screen in a less than perfect room I think your perspective on specs might be quite different.

There’s another major thing that we get in the cinema and that’s the surrounding sound. I think these projectors need a sound system too, I have tried that and even a cheap 5.1 makes the experience sooo much better

You are correct, I put it like this: Everyone can see the difference between 'bad' and 'good', but most people don't see it between 'good' and 'very good'.

The Anakin cut away was genius!

The star wars bit made me laugh. Thanks for that :P

This is XGIMI funniest product review so far! Thank you Paul ;)

Happy Sunday Paul.

I love your work Paul! Especially your honesty and habit of covering all the aspects of each new equipment. But when I heard you praising “digital” keystone correction right after pissing on digital zoom and how it introduces artifacts I became like 🤔. Aside from this, thanks a lot for the review

Great rant! The only 2 things I care about in a screen / projector are black levels and colour accuracy. As long as the brightness is good enough, I’m good.

Did anyone else thing Paul was going to say "You can easily still watch Casual...ty" at the 9 min 20ish mark 😂 The pinnacle of TV broadcast benchmarks.

Phillips Sales Director must have done Paul dirty at some point 😂. +1 for the hookup, his videos are so helpfully detailed. Great video as always, now to. just convince the other half...

Very nice 2001 reference and music!!!
