Xgimi Horizon Max: A bright and smart 4K projector with IMAX Enhanced

Xgimi has launched two new projectors for the US market: the 4K Horizon Max and the Aladdin, which we talked about here. The Horizon Max is Xgimi’s brightest 4K smart projector ever, with 3,100 ISO lumens from its hybrid light source. However, Xgimi has a history of exaggerating its brightness ratings, as revealed by a lawsuit from Epson. So, you may want to take it with a grain of salt.

Other specs Xgimi talked about the Horizon Max include a high contrast ratio (2000:1) and DTS audio. That allows this projector to receive an IMAX Enhanced certification. That certification lets it play enhanced content from streaming services like Disney+. 

It also has a smart feature that adjusts the image settings based on the wall it is projecting on, so you can switch from gaming to movie mode easily if you point it at different walls. The projector runs on Google TV, which supports Netflix natively. 

Xgimi has not announced the final prices or release dates yet, but the Horizon Max is expected to cost under US$3,000 (around CA$4,015) and ship in late 2024.
