"With the JMGO, did you notice any red tint when the picture gets entirely black? ... the JMGO being silent, smaller, lighter and more discreet I'll also keep it."
"It is much quieter than the C2, which is a priority in our bedroom because it is right above our heads."
"Its super quiet ... The n1s 4k is the most quietest projector I've owned. ... The n1s 4k is practically silent"

"They use triple lasers in all their DLP projectors and what I can verify is the insane color volume - they reach well OVER 100% coverage in rec 2020 colorspace. ... Which is a lot more than any consumer TV is reaching. ... I have a fairly nice miniLED TV in the living room and I’m now always wanting to watch movies on the projector in the bedroom instead."
"I just removed my 150” Elite Screens A8 Acoustic Transparent screen in favour of the wall and man, was I glad I did. The image, sharpness and colors are believe or not, so much better as you can see by my pictures. ... This image is 160” on a wall only, no expensive screen etc and it it so close to OLED it is ridiculous."
"Brightness is not. But colour gamut and contrast ratio KO XGIMI."

"The jmgo has much better contrast and no laser speckle giving it a much more cinematic image"

"I was honestly impressed by how fast the focusing is. ... The instant auto focus is super convenient, and it works perfectly whether I project it on the wall or the ceiling."
"Triple Laser and the fastest Keystone and Focus Adjustments available"
"Also, the auto keystone feature really surprised me. I didn’t even know this existed before, and after trying it I was honestly impressed by how fast the focusing is. The instant auto focus is super convenient, and it works perfectly whether I project it on the wall or the ceiling."

"Just fyi, theres a newer version of the n1s 4k that fixes the light spill with a new lens design. ... I'm just saying it's shitty that they still sell their old stock when they released a better version that fixes an issue. I had to go through the process of returning the same one OP got and re order ... Yes, it fixes the light spill but there's still a tiny bit, nothing compared to the initial version they released"
"Another issue I've encountered with the JMGO is that when the screen goes completely black during a video—such as between scenes in an episode (e.g., 'The Handmaid's Tale' has many half-second black screens) or during the credits—the picture develops a red tint. ... It clearly displays a black picture first, then the red tint suddenly comes and disappears when the "black picture part" is finished."

"I connect the jmgo with my pioneer vsx-329 so that i have the sound on my 5.1 system. But the sound lags. it stocks and i dont know what the problem is.."
The Valerion Pro Master will give you deeper blacks esp in Dolby Vision espwith their Enhanced Black Level switch . Ceiling projection ? Not sure about that however . Also the JMGO N1S Ultimate for searing brights and color volume . Triple Laser and the fastest Keystone and Focus Adjustments available . An eye popping projector pleaser if there was one .
r/projectors • Best 4K bedroom projector no budget ->I’ve got the ultimate, the sound’s actually pretty impressive. Feels rich and spacious, definitely has that surround vibe.
r/hometheater • Thinking of switching from my TV to a projector ->Yeah, I like my N1S Ultimate but I also got a screaming deal on it (sub-$1K), but unless I'm watching 3D content I keep it at brightness level 5, or maybe 7. Luckily it's still quite bright
r/projectors • Best projector under 1,500$ - The Hook Up comparison ->jmgo ultimate’s pricey but you get what you pay for, and its biggest perk over a traditional setup is portability, so really depends on whether you plan to stay in your apartment long term.
r/hometheater • Thinking of switching from my TV to a projector ->JMGO N1S Ultimate with a 600 dollar Amazon screen has done wonders for me. 16ft screen iirc. Would have to measure it to be sure.
r/projectors • Best projector for movie nights in the basement instead of buying a massive TV ->Your winner without question is the JMGO N1S 4K currently on at Amazon for $999
r/projectors • Best 4K bedroom projector no budget ->I have owned and used both. At the end of the day the specs mean absolutely nothing to me. What matters is the image I am looking at and again, I owned the 5030,5040,5050 (and the LS11000 for a couple of days) and yes, the JMGO outperforms them without question. If you can get a chance to see both I suggest you try cause you will be blown away. https://preview.redd.it/7rlbdueas6ze1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a4eb60122f39d00e2208c72bbf7148ceee195fe8
r/projectors • Epson LS12000 used worth it to buy? ->Hello, great question and basic answer is NO! A little backstory first. I have been using projectors since my early days at Sony Canada. I have owned multiple Epson projectors from the basic models and the 5030, 5040 and 5050UB so I have plenty of experience with the Epson line. I actually ordered the LS11000 as I was tired of the bulb and wanted to switch to laser a few years back. Within two hours it was back in the box going back to Epson Canada. Not that it wasn’t a nice machine but there wasn’t really a noticeable difference between the 5050UB and the LS11000. It was at that point I started searching through the newer ‘lifestyle’ projectors with LED and Laser technology. I tried literally 8 different models with none covering all the bases I needed. Then, by chance I found the JMGO Kickstarter and decided to back it. A week later I backed out (just a gut feeling) a month or so later I rebacked which ended up costing me another $600 I believe it was as I had missed the early bird offer. Anyways, long story short, I received the JMGO N1 Ultra and it was a game changer. EVERYTHING I was looking for in a projector and then some in a package that made the Epson line feel like semi trucks in size and with performance that smoked the Epson line. Needless to say I was so impressed with the technology I restarted my YouTube channel based on home theatre reviews and have now don’t many reviews on all the models up to the newest JMGO N1S Umtimate which is the best projector I have ever used, Hands down. It available shipped to Canada from Amazon US for $2099 on sale right now, even with the shipping charge to Canada you will still be lesser than the used Epson…by far. Check out my review on this model as well as other JMGO projectors and I PROMISE, you will not regret it! https://preview.redd.it/j0954tai7uye1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=540f05f8f34a9f8e097218a22dfed10693b30655 This image is 160” on a wall only, no expensive screen etc and it it so close to OLED it is ridiculous.

r/projectors • Epson LS12000 used worth it to buy? ->The JMGO N1S Ultra which is identical to the Ultimate, just a little less lumens 2800 vs 3300 and still freaking amazing is $3100 shipped to Canada, that includes taxes duties etc. and that is brands new, full warranty yada yada.
r/projectors • Epson LS12000 used worth it to buy? ->Enjoy!! I’ve been using my N1A 4K for a couple of months and absolutely love it! Phenomenal projector for the price point for it’s size.
r/projectors • Just unboxed my first projector ->Bought the same one taking advantage of the Amazon prime days few days ago . I’ve been using it nearly every day 🥹 love it ! best decision ! ✨
r/projectors • Just unboxed my first projector ->Projecting on a ceiling while lying down on the bed makes my nights so comfortable. I’m also excited to do digital displays on windows this Halloween using my N1S.
r/projectors • Just unboxed my first projector ->I’ve had the N1S 4k for about 6 months and I’m still very happy with it
r/projectors • Best projector under 1,500$ - The Hook Up comparison ->I mean I recently got a triple laser 4k DLP for $900, which would have been unthinkable last time I was looking at projectors like 5-10 years ago.
r/hometheater • Why are nice projectors still so expensive? ->JMGO N1S 4k. https://global.jmgo.com/products/jmgo-n1s-4k You pay more up the line for more brightness, but I’m watching in controlled light at night and this one is very bright. Enough so that it makes you wince when hit with bright flashes. They use triple lasers in all their DLP projectors and what I can verify is the insane color volume - they reach well OVER 100% coverage in rec 2020 colorspace. Which is a lot more than any consumer TV is reaching. I have a fairly nice miniLED TV in the living room and I’m now always wanting to watch movies on the projector in the bedroom instead. If you’re looking to spend more than me, the new Valerion models are getting a lot of praise and have a similar presentation or better. You pay for more brightness regardless so it depends on your setup at home.
r/hometheater • Why are nice projectors still so expensive? ->Yes, and it looks native at any normal viewing distance. It’s super impressive for the price.
