Hisense - C2 Pro Triple Laser Smart Mini Projector

I have the hisense C2 pro and have been very happy with it, 2k at crutchfield with 60 days to try it out.

If this is a permanent installation, look at home theater projectors, or lifestyle models designed to be easily ceiling mounted. A proper 5.1 audio installation with an AV receiver is a must, especially in a dedicated space with a home you actually own. Run wiring in the walls before you paint, and you will have a life long proper surround system. Avoid equipment at the front of the room if possible. Run HDMI to the projector and make it so you can swap out that HDMI cable. Wireless/screen mirroring is generally quite a lousy way to do anything. Use a wired device like an Apple TV or a Chromecast. If you're just streaming, consider a Roku or similar. The lifestyle models, as seen in the video, and as recommended with the X1 are decent solutions for sure, but are trickier to ceiling mount if they don't have a 3-point or 4-point mounting structure as is common with traditional projectors. Plus, they rarely have zoom and lens shift is almost unheard of. These are more common features on traditional projectors. But, the Hisense C2 Pro is a model with good zoom but terrible mounting. The Nexigo Trivision Ultra is well reviewed and has 4-point mounting which is nice for a ceiling setup. No zoom, no lens shift, so positioning must be very accurate for best results, as is common. Super easy to setup are models like the Epson 3800, but they are lamp-based and pretty much past their prime. A shame we haven't seen a laser version of those models yet. The BenQ X500i or X3100i are considerations as is the TK710 (or TK710STi) which are decent traditional models. High end starts around $5000 with Epson, Sony, and JVC models, all worthy in a good theater. Not sure what you're really hoping to spend here. A fixed frame screen from Silver Ticket is a excellent way to go.

You can get a Hisense C2 or the Nexigo Trivision Ultra and go with a traditional long throw setup. Placement of the projector needs to be pretty exacting. Then use a standard fixed frame screen in white or grey and call it done. Add a sound system and it's all together for under $3,000. $2,000 if you are careful in your shopping.

Hisense c2 its magic

Hi, I post an upgrade advise a few days before and I need to thank the guys who recommend me to buy blinded a Hisense C2 over an old Epson 4010 (I'm from another country). Just blow my mind when I test it out of the box then I update software and Now with some calibration just amazed me. Just Wowowow! The crispier 4k it’s real, the color gamut bt2020. All the tweaks that the projector allow you to do with the calibration settings. You can tweet it to near a native 3k:1 contrast and them the dinamic tone maping. Just blow out my mind . Thanks to the guys that recommend me to go to a new Tech. 0 laser speckle here on a silverticket mate whitte 1.1 gain. PD: the only downside it's cameras hate laser But i'm a photographer and manage to calibrate a little the picture tint on camera, because it add some purple tint color to Image. Just this photo can't justice the picture Quality than I see Now from this projector.

Hisense C2 And silverticket whitte matte screen for less than 2,000 . I'm very happy with thatane the best setup I had.

We ended up getting the Hisense C2 Pro! Not quite up to the ultra but close enough. Set it up today and are extremely happy with it. However, looking on Amazon again it appears the ultra and the pro are the same price and $300 cheaper then what we bought it for earlier this week. Sooooo we may do a return and purchase an ultra tomorrow.

Hisense C2 Pro is your best bet. Best color gamut coverage, low input lag, 2600 lumen. Check the reviews!

C2 is amazing. I have the uktra and leave it on laser luminescent level 1 aha I upgraded from bulb benq w5700

Hey guys, new to the projector game and late to this thread. I just bought a C2 Pro as my first ever home projector. I have a question for the C2 owners. How is your experience with rainbow effect? Apparently I'm pretty sensitive to it because I borrowed an old led projector from a friend before this and it was pretty bad. Subtitles are borderline unusable because of the rbe. To my surprise, my C2 pro also has a looot of rainbow. Not just for me, also my partner and a friend saw it. On subtitles especially apparent but also in dark scenes with brighter content etc. What's your experience?

I went for the Hisense C2 Pro. First impressions are that you need some setting up to get a good colour accuracy, especially in SDR. HDR content is pretty amazing though, even with the built in picture modes. DV content looks especially beautiful. Cons: - Vidaa OS is meh. Netflix works great but for example Vidaa's Plex app is rubbish, won't play HDR content and there's no transcoding option. - For now at least, the laser luminance setting is grayed out in most picture modes for me, meaning that the projector is way too bright for my needs (80" screen, 3m viewing distance, dimmed living room). - I'm seeing a lot of persistent rainbow effect in subtitles and black-white high contrast content, it hasn't subsided over time for me as some users have noted. Getting a gray screen, hoping it will alleviate the rbe, otherwise probably will have to return/sell it.

I have a Hisense C2 pro. Haven't tried gaming on it but according to reviews, delay is very minimal. By far good enough for story driven, probably also for at least light to medium competitive. I have a gray screen as well. I'd say it gives a nice edge for contrast and the C2 looks beautiful on it. If you're going for a projector with at least 2500 ansi and you have to contend with some ambient light, a gray screen is a good option. As far as seating distance to screen size, I'd say you're a bit on the edge. I sit 300cm away from the screen which is 90' and that thing is huuuuge. But it does give the cinema effect, it doesn't feel like a bigass tv. So expect like a big and bold, cinematic viewing/gaming experience. Definitely recommend the C2 line. Only issue with it is the rainbow effect (rbe) which can be a bitch if you're part of the 40% of people who see it. But afaik the Valerions and Nexigos also suffer the rbe. Gray screens mitigate this to a degree but definitely still noticeable. If you want smth below 2000€, the BenQ W2720i is a price-to-performance monster. Since it's LED not laser, you should also get zero rbe, and it's factory color calibrated. A part of me wishes I'd gone for the BenQ tbh. But it has no DV, which matters a bit if you watch a lot of Netflix or other HDR content with DV. It does have HDR10+ tho, I think.

I have the c2 pro purchased with a super offer for 1680 euros European version. It has 2600 lumens and dolby vision, HDR and iMax. Also dolby audio. The image is incredible and very bright. I think that the 3000 lumens of the c2 ultra is too much for a dark room and does not favor the contrast of the projector. I am very happy with my C2 Pro!!!

I recommend the Hisense C2 Pro. I bought it a month ago and I couldn't be happier. It's a wonder
