Can you take a look at the gaming mode? The response time is the one thing that kept me from pulling the trigger on the original N1 ultra. I've heard that this new one has a "gaming mode" but can't find anybody that covers what it actually does to response time.
@@reznorfan78 I reached out to JMGO and they quoted 15ms. I don't game but my daughter's do and they have had zero issue with lag. That being said, they do not do high level gaming so I cannot give you a better answer than that I'm afraid. I have tried a little golf on the Xbox One and that was spectacular on a 150" screen but that is definitely not as intensive as a FPS game for sure.
@@reznorfan78 unfortunately they did not, I will be honest though I always used the normal 'vivid' mode as did my daughters with no issues with lag... sorry, that's all I have for you 😂
Hey Randy, thanks for watching. I think I acted too quickly in giving my N1 away and should have thought it through a little more. The extra brightness is pretty noticeable and I am one that uses the 'built in' features like the smart features and speakers so the improvements there are also much appreciated. If you did not use those bells and whistles then the N1 is still an amazing projector even still.
@@OlyGoalie67 Good to know about the brightness! Personally I use the Nvidia Shield Pro, so the OS matters less to me. Still weighing my options. Cheers!
@@randyr7622 Randy, do you own a projector currently? The N1S is a nice upgrade from the N1 but if I could buy either and the N1 was lesser in price based on the fact that there was a newer model in the N1S, I would likely go with the N1S as I always want the newest but others who weren't too concerned with having the latest and greatest would be VERY happy with the N1 as well.
Thanks for the great review, I did end up getting one myself. Did you have to update your Arcana settings to get LLDV to the N1S Ultra from what you had on the N1 Ultra in your LLDV video? I just got an HDFury Vertex 2 recently and was wondering what settings work best for the N1S Ultra, if you could please share or point me some place I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, appreciate it very much. I ended up selling my Vertex 2 and then repurchasing the Arcana 2. The settings are more limited on the Arcana but that is the nature of that less expensive unit. That being said, I still use the BT2020 setting on the Arcana which would be the same as what was on the Vertex 2...I hope that helps and enjoy your N1S Ultra!
@@riteshrajan5752 as another owner, do you happen to game a bit more competitively? I play a lot of fps and fighting games, I suck so I'm not looking for crazy awesome 1ms twitch reactions.... But if another guy could confirm that that more competive gametypes are good on this thing, I would pull the trigger (pun).
@@reznorfan78 Sorry not competitively but I do enjoy gaming and did upgrade to the N1S ultra from a BenQ x3000i that was aces at gaming! Movie watching was more important to me and the tri-color laser driven near 100% Rec 2020 colorspace coverage for HDR movies won out over all other considerations, I think the HDTVTest review indicated that input lag was around 30 ms for 4K@60? Likely adequate for console gaming but not as much for FPS' leave alone PC. I loved the accuracy of the BenQ but the brightness took a hit everytime the color filter dropped in for WCG and it was closer to 100% DCI-P3 that Rec.2020 anyway, so it was the trade off I chose to live with. If gaming is a priority can't recommend the BenQ x3000i or the 3100i , 500i and all of their ilk enough! Very low input lag on all of them.
اهلا ياصديقي شكرا على المراجعة التفصيلية الرائعة انا املك jmgo n1 ultra جهاز مذهل ولدي شاشة عرض 150الصورة مثالية لكن هل يستحق الترقية الى jmgo n1s ultra ؟؟
@@Mnamhaf the brightness is definitely an improvement but there are also things like improved sound and software...hang tough though, something big might be around the corner...
Hi Oly, is the brightness difference notable? I would probably wait until the next release which I hope they add the Dolby Vision although I have the Arcana 2 which is working perfectly with the N1 Ultra.
Yeah, I am not sure if I would upgrade at this point...it isn't just brightness, but better sound, more stable OS and a few things like direct on to last input etc. but DV would have been a game changer for sure!
Hi. What is the maximum screen size that the JMGO N1 Ultra 4k projector can support? The manufacturer states 150 inches. Your screen is also 150 inches. But do you think it can handle a 160-170 inch screen? Have you tested whether it will support screen sizes above 150 inches? Thank you in advance for the information. Regards. Well done.
Thanks for watching and great question. I think the N1 will handle much larger sizes. A user on the Discord JMGO owners site has 170" set up I believe (may even be larger) and it looks stunning. I believe the auto focus etc still works but I do not know that for sure. Usually though when going that large you are setting it up and leaving it so even if it had to be done manually it really isn't a huge deal. I hope that helps.
Oly. Your videos are very good. I wanted to ask you a question. My desire is to buy one of these projectors, and use a 4k apple tv. And I would like, if possible, to enjoy Dolby Vision low latency. For this I want to buy an arcana. My question is: do you need something more than the arcana to make it work? Is it very difficult or complex to make it work? I don't understand how some important companies like jmgo and others don't give importance to Dolby Vision. I don't know if it's because they are oriental brands but it's difficult to understand. Above all because they make a difference in quality. I would greatly appreciate any advice you see fit. Thank you so much.
@@pabloarancibia5553 Pablo, thanks for the kind words and for watching my videos, it is much appreciated. As far as your question goes, the Arcana would be all you need with the ATV4K running to the Arcana first, then out to the JMGO. Once that connection is made the ATV will automatically add the Dolby Vision activation button in settings giving you full Dolby Vision goodness and if you find a second hand Arcana you can get LLDV for a reasonable price...well worth the investment when working with the N1!
Hey Oly, Another nice thorough review. Adaptive wall color is a nice feature that I previously only saw on the XGIMI units. Thank goodness for "Power on Behavior". but that looks like a feature that could have been added to the entire N1 projector line with a firmware upgrade. From your review I think I'm beginning to see some nice features in Google TV vs the sluggish Android OS. Looks like many of the streaming apps that I use are available by default, but does it have a Play Store to add more apps , like HBO Max?
Thanks again Bruce...it does have the Google app store but I haven't played around to see what apps it can or won't install. I agree with the on to Input, such a simple upgrade but...
No, the real difference on the Ultimate is higher lumens at 3500 ANSI and enhanced MALC for better speckle reduction. If you have any sort of uncontrolled light the ultimate will definitely be better with the higher lumens output. Both units are the same resolution...
Thanks for watching Sammy...no disrespect to Xgimi but it isn't even close. The N1S Ultra rivals the Epson series which are known to have some of the best contrast out there. I would say it is even better in my opinion. I have owned both the Epson 5040UB and 5050UB so I am speaking from personal experience. Another area that the N1S is probably the best in is 3D. Most home projectors 3D is very dark and not very enjoyable whereas the N1S is incredibly bright. I just watched Avatar2 a few nights ago and reminded myself how amazed I was by its 3D capabilities...you will absolutely not go wrong...I said it before in the review...the best projector line I have ever used, hands down.
@@OlyGoalie67 so you don't think the dolby vision tone mapping , the ace in the sleeve, is better? Wouldn't you see more in the details of real DV picture, or do you have LLDV with the n1s, when you are giving your opinion of it
I am talking straight out of the box. The contrast on this projector is rhe best i have ever seen stock again, even compating to the industry leading Epsons. Yoy should join the discord and take a look at the videos posted there bt Vapor Model, they will completely blow you away. I do use an HD Fury for LLDV but it doesn't make a huge difference really. I do lots of reviews for JMGO but when I say the things that I say about them it is because they are truly amazing projectors and that is my own feedback from a person who trued many different brands and models until i found the Kickstarter on the original N1 Ultra. Put it this way, this is the first projector EVER that stopped my constant urger to fine 'the next better projector' becuase I really feal there isnt one!
@@alexbelauste thanks for watching...I think if you had 12 feet you would be fine...I currently have mine about 12 feet from the screen and am on a 150" screen and that is even overshooting it by a few inches.
