Thinking of picking up the 1080p model for an outdoor projector. Have you connected a bluetooth speaker to the projector? How is the WIFI and Bluetooth connectivity? Not too finicky? Also kind of wondering why this is categorized as an outdoor projector when you have to plug it in for power. Seems like a built-in battery would be a given if they're going to label it as outdoor.
@@nickorsini2975 I’m using 2 of the soundcore motion boom plus as Bluetooth speakers for my projector. I also have a 25 foot retractable extension cord for moving it around the house. Though you can get a portable power station for taking it outside.
I ordered the capsule just to see and it is awesome, I imagine the 4k would blow me away. The picture on the capsule is perfect for me but I do find its generally not bright enough.
I bought this exact one. Do not read reviews as most are not accurate or the reviewer was unsure how to use it. This has everything you need. Literally one of my favorite pieces of tech ever
Fantastic review! Chris, your reviews are the best on YT. Straight to the point without all of the other distractions. Liked and subscribed! Great work mate, from Australia 😎👍
Another great projector video! Can't wait for you to review the ForMovie Theater AND the new Epson LS800 ultra short throw projectors. Very nice new tech announced this past month. Keep up the great work!
Sucks they only put 1 HDMI cable on it versus the cosmos max which has 2. Means you cannot use an external source + ARC connected external sound out of the box
Nice vid, very cool product! I’m getting the Foremovie soon because of your findings at the projector showdown. Looking forward to your in depth review! Hope I’m making the right choice since it’s so new!
How can they claim native 4k if it's using pixel shift? Are you able to manual focus the lens? This would be an excellent outdoor projector and 2400 lumens should be enough for over 150 (maybe 180) but if it's auto focus only I could see the limitations on screen size.
Yeah, there are issues with so many projectors labelling themselves as "Native 4K" but there are also terms like "True 4K" ,"UHD PRO 4K" , "Real 4K" and "4K Supported" ... These are all vague terms but I believe "True 4k" is a Texas Instruments term and "UHD PRO 4K" is Epson. That being said, I tried this projector and the input latency was horrible so don't use it for games.
@@Haywood-Jablomie Marketing 101: "Perception is greater than reality." Sony also claims their Xperia One phones have a 4K resolution display when they do NOT whatsoever. 16:9 4K = 3840 x 2160 21:9 4K = 5120 x 2160 Xperia One phones have 3840 x 1644 which is roughly 30% LESS pixels than 16:9 4K. 😂😂😂 Sony is lying to mass consumers with their marketing. 👎👎👎 The last phones with ACTUAL 4K displays are the Xperia XZ Premium and Xperia XZ2 Premium.
Where do you get that it uses pixel shifting? My understanding is that 'Native' means is doesn't use tricks like pixel shifting to provide the listed resolution. Also keystone does have lossy quality when using digital keystone, which modifies the image. Manual keystone adjusts the lenses/hardware, so shouldn't result in quality loss. I'm not sure which type the reviewed projector is using.
Great review! Can it do blue-tooth audio out? I bring my LG 4K laser projector many different places and the Bluetooth audio out makes setup so easy. Most often my wife and I are watching in bed with a small yet high quality wireless speaker so we can enjoy without keeping our son from falling asleep in the next room over.
Hi dear Chris !! I would like to do a question. I have now a Benq TK800 proyector, and I am thinking to upgrade to Xgimi Pro. I need your advice please !!!! Thanks a lot in advance 🤗❤️
I have the BenQ tk700 sti, great projector. But... When are they gonna bring back or implement 21:9 ultra wide on projectors. As a gamer I need and want this. Who do we need to talk to, to make 21:9 or 32:9 a thing. Optoma apparently have one but I don't like Fuqing with them because their devices never work like that should. I have an optoma gtr1080hd and the damn thing can't hold onto the 120hz signal, I have tried 2 of them and they have the same flaw.
Awesome video as always! While the contrast ratio on the Cosmos Laser isn't great, I have been VERY impressed by the brightness and color vibrancy, super versatile projector! One note: I have been able to control the projector settings (accessed by the source button) from the remote with no issues, maybe a firmware update situation in your case?
@@ChrisMajestic Oh that's interesting. I haven't used an external streaming device (something other than the dongle) with it in a few months, I'll have to test that with my shield.
Great video! Could you please do a comparison/guide on how to pick a portable/outdoor projector? You’re super informative and I so appreciate your videos!
How long did it take you to download the firmware update? It's only 776MB, has been over 30mins and we're just at the halfway point on the progress bar. ZZZzzzz.
How is this considered portable when it doesn't have a built-in battery? Are there any other better projectors with bluetooth functionality to for tethering a bluetooth speaker?
you could easily move this to another room or bring it over to a friends house, so its portable in that sense compared to any small or large tv where you dont move it ever and wouldnt want to. as for the battery, the market for projectors is already very small and i can only imagine the market for people who want to use it somewhere where there is no power source is even smaller, and those people would probably be better off buying a separate battery anyway
wish you tested the projector under lighty conditions just for visual brightness comparion, please factor this in future reviews,allthesame,big ups to the great review...
How much do you think the input lag will interfere with gameplay for COD and other “highly competitive” games ? Maybe it’s just me but 54 milliseconds doesn’t seem too noticeable
I dont dont know if u can’t help me but i need a projector for my bedroom.. i have watched many videos but i just can’t find any projector that i like!! This one seams perfect for example but were i leave is hard to get my hands on one.. do you have any idea for one projector of any type for a super dark room for like more or less 500$? Like the best view for that kind price with Wi-Fi connection?
@Chris Majestic You are awesome dude. I was wondering if you somehow see this message, if you could do a vid comparing the AEON screens? I see that the prices vary wildly and its doesn't seem dependent on the screen size. I'm going to get a short throw projector but I see that the one I want ( Elite Screens Aeon CLR 3, 123" Diag. 16:9, Edge Free Ceiling Ambient Light Rejecting Fixed Frame Projector Screen, AR123H-CLR3) is like 1,500 on Amazon. Meanwhile some of the other way bigger screens are a lot cheaper. Also can tell us what the best screens to use with the "FOR MOVIE HOME THEATER" and also a comparison with it and the BenQ V7050i?
When are they gonna bring back or implement 21:9 ultra wide on projectors. As a gamer I need and want this. People with computers don't care about smart rubbish in projectors. C'mon Chris, talk to these manufactures.
Am coming from Epson 4010 and i want upgrade to sony vw290es or jvc nx5 both have less prightness than the Epson. Will i see them dim or i will be satisfied with overall picture quality? Am in controled light room
What size screen are you running? The NX5 should be bright enough if your room is light controlled which I assume it is otherwise not too much point in upgrading. I have the 4010 right now on a 134' screen with 0.8 gain running low power and I'd say it's still brighter than it needs to be. Would gladly give up some lumens for better contrast
Hello Chris, came across your channel looking for true 4k monitors. There are so many out there to choose from. I mainly want to user this for movies, sports, and maybe a little bit of gaming (like 3-4hours a week) Since you seem like an expert on projectors, which projector would you recommend, my budget is no more than 2500. Also, what screen would you recommend as well. Thanks again, keep up the great work as you are definitely giving people some great information!
I don’t do sponsored reviews for products I wouldn’t recommend and I will only do them if the brand lets me be completely honest. Which is why I spoke freely about the things I didn’t like.
@@ChrisMajestic Scientific studies prove that being paid or receiving products for free has a very real bias and you are significantly more likely to make a favourable review - that goes for everyone of course
I still found it useful. I read Amazon 1-3 star reviews to learn of issues - some of which seem user error or defective since some serious issue is only mentioned once...
That’s the difference between me and others. If a product is garbage I’d rather not do the video. I only review products that are at least decent. The cons to this projector are price, black levels, the remote functionality, and input lag which were all mentioned in the video.
Sponsored by the product you're reviewing. Instantly can't trust the review. Don't want to say all the negatives for fear you don't get more free stuff.

Did you test it on a black wall?
No zoom features?
How Can I connect a sound bar to this projector ?
Is this good for gaming? How do you compare this to something like the JMGO N1s pro?
Just bought a Nebula Capsule. Made me curious what else they have.
Best alternative to second monitor on the go.
I'm impressed
do you mind sharing your picture settings in both standard and movie modes? Thanks
As a programmer, would it be possible for me to substitute my monitor with it?
Hey man great reviews, I'm a subscriber now
Is there an option to connect the sound to a headphone ( for dolby sound) or to connect to a receiver?
Is this better than the mars 3?
JMGO N1 Ultra 4K VS Nebula Cosmos Laser 4K?
Thanks for including Toy Story!! Looks like an amazing projector. $2,200 is pretty steep for me, though. 😳
$1599 on Amazon this week

Literally all projectors do this, including this one.
Epson LS800 please!

Could I ask what type of 3d glasses you are using for this projector??
I´m interested in this too! I got the Cosmos Laser 4k, but once I switch to 3D it´s all just blurry on our DLP Glasses.
Could you review the Dangbei mars pro? It looks impressive but I don't want to commit until I hear good things from you.
How much do you think the input lag will interfere with gameplay for COD and other “highly competitive” games ? Maybe it’s just me but 54 milliseconds doesn’t seem too noticeable
Personally for me I notice anything over 35ms. Some people aren’t as picky as I am though.
Greetings from india. Epson ls12000b review plz
It's really nice...but it does not have enough ports and hdmi 2.1...
Great video!
Hey nice video, i would like to see your take on the Epsom ef11
So you could just plop this on a table, project it on a wall and it will look pretty good?
Yes. As long as you're not outside or in direct sunlight which is pretty much the case for any projector.

I'm looking for a projector around 2000-2500 also.. need to know what's the best projector around that price range.
I will love to buy I sadly can't afford it
I would probably be pretty close to buying one of these if it wasn't for that brutal 54ms input lag.
JVC's upcoming LX-NZ30 projector is aimed at 1080p gamers with 6ms of input lag at 120Hz.
It only has HDMI 2.0 (not 2.1).

Sounds like they paid you
Other reviews said it’s slow through apps
Drops out
Etc
Just got mine for 1300 on Amazon 😁
«Native 4K Pixel Shifting» :)
Such a workhorse but at 22 hundred ouch! Way out of my league😅
Keep it up with the good work bro
Very nice
I don't think it's actually portable. There's no battery instead...
Also your review doesn’t say how many other speakers you can add or if it can mirror from phone
Use Apple
So basically you said nothing for me
