MoGo 2 Pro

That’s such a cozy setup, man! 😄 Since the distance is only around 3.2 m and the ceiling is slanted, I’d skip any complicated mounts and just go for a **small portable projector with auto focus and keystone** — way easier to deal with. * **BenQ GV50** – perfect size for a bedroom, nice picture and sound. * **Dangbei Atom** or **XGIMI MoGo 2 Pro** – quiet, have Google TV built-in and super easy to move around. If your budget’s around **€700**, those models are the sweet spot — clean setup, no cables all over the place, and great for watching in bed.

xgimi mogo pro 2 has auto rectangle works well

\*re-upload since my text didn't upload. Mogo 2 Pro is solid! Just mounted it today on ceiling. Here's my review of my week impressions so far. I want to disclose this isn't paid this is honest and unfiltered. Pros - Great remote can actually control my sound system and my PS5 I dont know how it works but it's cool. - The price is got it for was 250 from sams club about a 50 dollar discount from amazon however its 10 dollar shipping and I paid 10 in tax. Still under 300 dollars! - Picture performance is solid Great color accuracy, latency is very low on game mode. - No reports of full failure. Many projectors on amazon that are below 500 have many reports of failures I did deep research on forums seems like this unit last long - The hookup a youtuber that tests projector actually rated this unit high in audio quality and I can definitely respect the audio performance. Cons - Lack of a stand and control to tilt the unit this makes it hard to put it on a table and just project you have to get a piece of card or something to angle it. - Not bright enough for outdoor or room viewing with a lot of lights. It was alright but this projector is best at night and movie rooms. - Many reports of keystone problems cause heavy dips in performance didn't effect me but it was a known issue. - No filter most projectors have this what happens if it gets clogged of dust? - No 2nd HDMI input or HDMI ARC port down the line if my sound system stops or need to upgrade it ill have to likely get an HDMI splitter or a sound bar that passes through video output. - My anker 120 watt power brick didnt work on thr projector. - Lack of lamp replacement now this is an LED and on specs sheet the 25,000 hours estimate thing means like 10 years for about 6 hours a day use that's a lot but is highly dependent on ventilation and other factors. But when the unit dies outside the 1 year warranty from ximi your on your own to replace no lamp replacement like an Epson or BenQ. Why did I not choose the newer models like the Mogo 3 or 4 Pro? It comes down to lack of resolution upgrade to 4k. There all still using 1080p and justifying the 200-300 price about double cost of my unit to get newer model for gimicy features I don't need like the battery in it, Netflix support, faster os or slightly brighter isn't enough for me. This fits my budget and the brightness is enough for my room and is good overall with nice android TV. Overall score is 7/10 if this unit lasts for 4 years then it's a 8/10. If you get this unit I recommend getting a stand and turning off keystone, digital zoom when you can so you get the full performance of the picture. Cause keystone is just digital its not a physical lens shift so you lose sharpness of image. The features are for convenience but will not be best results for performance. What I had before was a 20 year old Sony VPL-VW11HT it served me well it was stuck at 720p making text hard to read and I wanted a projector that would be great for my PS5 for GTA 6 when it comes out. That 1080p and 60fps is a standard I usually play games at but at 110 Inch screen couple feet away its not the best I still see some blur in text its very small but its just not as sharp if that makes sense. Farther away is better at lower resolutions. There's a measurement for that with size of screen, resolution that's best and I found that sweet spot. \*add - I also wanted to add to my post is that no Netflix support and probally no point in trying and it you looking for that it may be worth it to get thr mogo 3 or 4 pro as it has that support. I dont care for it as I have a PS5 and I donr rely on the android 11 os tv to do my entertainment I just wanted something basic with YouTube it has it so that'd fine. But a big con not for me but for others is lack of Amazon

I’m pleasantly surprised with the Magcubic L018. For its price it has a lot to offer: Autofocus, reasonable brightness, proper focus across the entire frame without vignetting, no skipped frames, reasonable keystone. It’s not bad at all! I’ve also owned an Xgimi Mogo Pro 2 and the Magcubic’s image quality is not even that far behind. Also owned a proper Epson and that’s a different story of course.

The XGIMI MoGo 2 Pro could be one option if you want a projector that works well for gaming without spending crazy money— you cand find it approximately around $300. The plus side is that it has a dedicated Game Mode that drops input lag to about 33 ms (with Auto-Keystone turned off). That’s a really solid number for casual and even semi-competitive gaming, making it feel responsive for consoles like the Switch, PS5, or Xbox. Even though it is a 1080p resolution, it has good brightness for its size, and portability, so for roughly the price of a mid-range TV, it’s a strong pick if gaming performance matters to you.

I think XGIMI Halo+ would also fit your criteria, It is also on sale right now and costing around 500 euros. I have XGIMI MOGO 2 myself, but Halo+ would be even better

I’ve been using the MoGo 2 for a while, and it’s been great for indoor movie nights. The MoGo 4 is a solid upgrade with a brighter image, built-in battery, and a 360° stand make it more versatile for different setups. If you’re looking for something portable that works well in various settings, the XGIMi Mogo series (Mogo 4 if you have the budget) is definitely worth considering

I recommend to look towards XGIMI. They are a lot more user-friendly than your examples and better picture quality as well. XGIMI Mogo 2 or Mogo 2 Pro would fit into your budget as well. I can only recommend based on my experience as I have been using Mogo 2 for some time now and been happy about it.

I have used a few year old model (Mogo 2) and the picture quality is surprisingly good! In terms of Netflix availability it depends on the model. With Mogo 2 you would have to use Desktop Launcher to get the app or use a TV stick. I just use my phone and Airplay/Chromecast from Netflix. Nevertheless, XGIMi has just released Mogo 2 (New) which now supports Netflix again.

I was tired of watching stuff on a 17"screens and my flat is too small for a big tv, and i have no good white walls. Since i only had 600€ euros to spare , i took a leap of faith and bought a xgimi mogo pro 2 , and a tensioned motorized screen , both for around 300€... I don't expect miracle, but since i can get complete darkness in that flat , and i can place the projector at the perfect spot according to specs, i suppose it will be better than my laptop screen and speakers. I'll keep you posted on how it turns out.

If you can have complete darkness in your room and place perfectly your projector 1m95 away from your screen , as i did , i m actually really happy with the Xgimi mogo 2 pro , image wise and sound wise. Bust quality becomes shit if no complete darkness or if you need to use keystone because your projector is not perfectly placed (2m away maximum from the center of the screen). Also i project on a decent screen.

I had a neopix prime one which did the job for a while. But it was loud and eventually died. I ended up buying an xgimi mogo 2 pro this year, I got it for 300ish off of amazon. I used to use a Bluetooth speaker for the old projector but the new one has built in one's that are good enough. The audio and picture aren't going to be as good as 1k+ setups but it's plenty good for me. I also bought a projector screen, this is the one https://amzn.eu/d/05X9B77. I think it was about 70e at the time? It came with a stand which kind of sucks tbh but we have wardrobes on the wall opposite the bed which I put 2 sticky wall hooks. It takes 2 mins to pop it up and down.
