XGIMI - Elfin

hello, check out the mogo 3. its full HD, its in about 80 pound more if google is right but it has google chromescast, can be hooked up to a ps5 and notebooks (keep in mind its not a full sized hdmi port) you're - in my view -not right about one thing: projection won't look worse the bigger the picture it gets. i had 120 inch screens with 720p projectors and still enjoyed myself. okay that was 2019, but in generall: the bigger the picture, the better. if you want something a bit more cheaper, look for a refurbed elfin (Not flip).

If you are a Netflix consumer, Elfin Flip Plus, if you are not a Netflix consumer (I only use Stremio) The old Elfin has 4k support, higher brightness, memc support and moves extremely well! Plus the 0.33 chip, larger than the Flip ones! I was undecided between the three too, I chose the old one with android tv! Plus, with an adapter like this https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0F1YG7VK1?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1¤cy=EUR and a 65w battery with power delivery you make it truly portable. You can replace the power brick with a smaller and easier to transport and install 65-100w power supply.

Was going to say the MoGo 2 Pro and Elfin would definitely work cost wise. Plus they’re pretty compact units. Typically a lot of people that are doing sewing patterns are using UST projector aimed at the table as it’s easier to scale this. I actually have a video example that I posted to the subreddit here of an Epson BrightLink being used. [Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/budgetprojectors/comments/1e861c8/epson_brightlink_485wi_ultra_short_throw/) https://preview.redd.it/636j335k3y8f1.jpeg?width=965&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1b92e9db59ec2821fad04d6ec9e92ca0ef89040

Xgimi elfin is vantasic. Has auto keystone correction so you don’t struggle to line it up with the screen.

From my experience, 300 real ansi lumens is enough for dark room I gifted my friend Xgimi elfin some years ago For the budget projector check https://youtu.be/vHmy8sobWEc?si=IjGRLxh_TsuV3hj_

With that wall, put a bigger screen!! And move those speakers to the side a bit maybe a good soundbar in the middle (Sonos Arc 😎) as far as the projector goes, I've had my eye on the Xgimi Horizon S Max. I'm using an Xgimi Elfin now and it's pretty sweet, been wanting to upgrade myself. The ultra short throw projectors are cool and all, but you're gonna pay a few grand if you go that route

There is nothing like a well-known brand projector. Several of those cheap AliExpress projectors that promise ultra 4k and 10,000 lumens have passed through my house, but they are useless. Now in the bedroom we have a xgimi elfin hanging from the ceiling. And I recently bought an Epson eb-w31 for only €80 and we use this to watch movies at night outside the home. Although it is old and its features are not the best, it looks great!!

I think the same. I get the feeling that watching anything on a projector is more enjoyable than on a TV, even if it is big. In my bedroom I have a xgimi elfin hanging from the ceiling in front of a 100" screen Before we only used it to watch movies from time to time, but a while ago we used it for everything. Movies, series, television. We even put it on at night to sleep. It has completely replaced a small television that we had on top of the dresser. I also have an Epson eb-w31 that we use to watch movies on the terrace when it gets dark.

If you have a Apple TV, save the money and buy the Elfin non plus model - it's the same projector but without Google TV.

there's the elfin, the elfin flip, and elfin flip plus. The elfin flip and flip plus have the included stand. The elfin and elfin flip plus are the same brightness, 500 lumens. The elfin flip has 400 lumens. The contrast is similar. They will appear similar. If you plan on using the built in streaming options, the flip plus might be better because of the updated processor and operating system. I think it also auto focuses faster than the original elfin. None of them are very bright for home theater projectors but they should be ok for casual use. Contrast won't matter too much at this brightness. You may consider a screen to help boost perceived brightness and contrast. I can't tell you if it's worth 80 euros, but the stand will save a few euros and it really is very convenient on the tabletop. I don't know your local marketplace, but you can also try looking at older, used projectors to get some higher performance at a similar price.

XGIMI elfin works great for me (500 euro)
