If you love watching movies at home but you miss the big screens of the cinemas, then there’s an easy solution, get a projector and make your living room become the coziest cinema in the world.
Of course, you cannot skimp on the projector and get one of those $40 toys you sometimes find online. If you want a good home cinema experience you have to look at something like the latest Xiaomi Mi projector.
The one on sale today comes with what we call an ultra-short focal lens, which means you need just a mere 50cm throw distance to create a huge 150-inch projection screen with native FullHD resolution.
The device uses ALPD 3.0 technology developed by Appotronics, with a laser projector that can reach a maximum brightness of 5000 lumes as well as a static contrast ratio of up to 3000:1. Meanwhile the NTSC coverage is over 85%, which means fine detail and natural color reproduction.
Xiaomi’s projector also packs a quad core processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which should allow the Android 6.0 based OS we find on board to run pretty smoothly.
