​I bought it yesterday, and it works awesomely! Before this, I tried the Xgimi Halo+ GTV version, but I returned it after ten days. The Xgimi was very slow and laggy for me; even Twitch was lagging. But back to the Epson - it just works. ​The picture has nice quality. The keystone correction, obstacle avoidance, and eye protection are all working. The latest GTV runs smoothly with no lags or issues. ​Just some small conclusions from my side: no battery, the design looks a bit old (especially the remote compared to the Xgimi), and there’s no way to trigger focus adjustment. Still, the overall impression is very good, and I highly recommend it. Can't say anything about EF-21.

We are verry happy, this thing runs Every day for hours on end (im partial insomniac, so spend most time watching shows and movies on Plex). This thing is great

You only bought one portable projector (the XGimi) here. The first projector you bought only ran off a power outlet. It was cheap, and there are a million variations of these cheap no-name models. The XGimi was a really fine model. Not as advanced as some of the better models, but it was designed to run off of an internal battery, and it easily packs into a bag and travels with you wherever you go. Dim, yes, but truly portable. The last projector you got is a lifestyle projector. This is a very hot category right now. XGimi has their Horizon 20 series. Valerion has the Visionmaster series. Epson has their... No, Epson doesn't have any lifestyle models, just a few portable(ish) models. BenQ has lifestyle models. JMGO, Nexigo, and others have lifestyle models. The quality of the autofocus and other features can vary wildly between these lifestyle models. Some install them in their theater, and forget about them. Some want good integrated speakers, others don't care. Some demand a really good streaming operating system, others don't care at all. Glad you are happy with the Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro and that it meets your needs.
