Great video thank you! Can you connect this projector via bluetooth to a bluetooth soundbar/surround sound setup? whats the key difference between the 2 pro and the regular 2 other than size? Is it just brightness?

@CaninosRC Жыл бұрын

Yes u can connect bluetooth soundbar. Depending on device there could be a slight delay though. 2pro is brighter and better inbuild speakers.

@TronicGames 2 жыл бұрын

Great. Thanks for the video. How about the "going out of focus" issue that was present in the Mi Compact projector? Does this go out of focus after it warms up?

No out of focus issues on the 2pro afaik.

The power consumption is missing, with max. brightness and standard game mode. The delay is about 120-250ms -> Xgimi halo + has less than 30ms. All in all: superb test. You didn't notice some strange moiré-pixel-muster in dark black areas with high brightening scenes?

Hi Can, great review! I plan to get the beamer and a projection screen that you have to hang from the ceiling. Does the beamer need a certain height to project onto the screen? Or can you adjust that manually with the keystone function? I have a screen that is 180cm wide and 101cm high (about 82"). What is the minimum distance that the beamer needs? I see that the beamer has an optical output. So can you connect the beamer to the soundbar with an optical cable for sound?

@CaninosRC 2 жыл бұрын

Height is definitely no problem. The projected image is "tilted" upwards in normal position. When using upside down on ceiling, u could mount it directly on ceiling and still have full image on walls (no cropping on base of image). Depending on screen height, u can lower the projector or tilt it and use keystone. Spdif is indeed optical, but 2channel(stereo only). Image is 1:1, wich means for 82inch display u would have to place the projector 82inches away from screen. U could place it further, but you'll need to zoom out with keystone correction.

@CaninosRC 2 жыл бұрын

i had the same setup but my rollup screen was faulty and i use a portable one now. It really depends on how far the screen rolls down and the height of your table. My roll up screen had a black patch above the screen and i also added some chains to lower it a bit furthermore. The projected screen starts around 10cm above the projector itself. You'll probably need to tilt or heighten the projector a bit if your screen hangs a bit high

@iTzDaniel92 2 жыл бұрын

@@CaninosRC is it not possible to manually raise the projected screen? with manual keystone function for example? or is this not possible?

@CaninosRC 2 жыл бұрын

@@iTzDaniel92 yes, only within its maximum projection range. So you can in a way digitally shift the image when zoomed out within limits with keystone. But the best image quality is direct projection with minimal keystone or zoom out. Luckily the image quality is great so there is a bit room to experiment with indirect setups. But again, direct projection is the best way! Imo its better with a portable screen as this gives more flexibility with setup as you already use the projector mobile.

Hi. Thanks for the review. It's great. Do you know if it will be easy to change from 60 inches to 100 inches from time to time without physically moving the projector?

@CaninosRC 2 жыл бұрын

Without moving, you can digitally zoom out by adjusting 4corner keystone in the global edition. The chinese edition has a separate zoom out function. The lens is fixed so you can only digitally zoom out (make image smaller) and not zoom in (make image bigger)

Any regular screen/wall will do. Google services work out of the box. No issues with heat or autofocus.

Can you tweak the colors in the image settings? From what i've heard the colors are one of the biggest drawbacks

@CaninosRC 2 жыл бұрын

Yes in user mode you can adjust brightness/contrast/saturation/sharpness and hue. Also 3 modes of color temperature (standard/warm/cold). I really dont see any problems with colors. But this is always subjective ofcourse. For the price its a great package.
