I was torn between Hisense C1 and xgimi horizon ultra 4k but ended pulling the plug. Around $500 more at other places.

Almost all of the reviews are positive and highly rated, heard in one of them that it performs better than AWOL 3500/2500. Please do your own research.

The C1 projector’s impressive colour space of 110% BT.2020 is a testament to its remarkable TriChroma laser engine that surpasses industry standards.

Features:

1600 Ansi lumens
4K UHD picture quality
Game mode
4K TriChroma laser projection
High efficiency cooling
Automatic adjusting system
Dolby Vision HDR10 and HLG decoding

Not at all a regular poster, please excuse if there are mistakes.

    I was suprised it could do Dolby Vision with so low lumems - but its just decoding.

    This, Nebula by Anker Cosmos 4k upgraded or LG Cinebeam Q?

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 08:49

      Definitely this….according to my research.

  • smiles on 19/07/2024 - 08:55

    hello folks, can anyone suggest me which one is good out of these 4 pls?
    - Samsung SP-LSP7T 4K UST Laser Projector
    - Hisense C1 4K TriChroma Laser Mini Projector
    - Xiaomi Mi 4K Laser Projector
    - XGIMI Horizon Ultra HD Projector

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 09:12

      I did not consider Xiaomi in my list, but i chose C1 from the rest.

      • smiles on 19/07/2024 - 09:26

        Thanks. I am inclined towards Samsung SP-LSP7T 4K UST Laser Projector since its UST

        • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 09:34

          UST is fantastic option if space and cleanliness is an issue, also very uncluttered. I like it.

  • Duram on 19/07/2024 - 09:04

    Would this still display well on my old 'screen' or do I need special LED LAZER screen?

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 09:42

      I'm planning to project on white wall, so i think your old 'screen' should be just fine.

  • samfisher5986 on 19/07/2024 - 09:08

    1600 lumens… I would be concerned of the picture quality even in a dark room if you want to use it at a reasonable size.

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 09:15

      Good point, but none of the reviews i watched were concerned about lumens on C1. Will try it myself and let you guys know.

        Be careful with a lot of the “reviews” you see on YouTube. Many of them I find with projector reviews are quite biased shills as they get them for free (and often do sponsorships with the manufacturer) so they are always proclaiming how amazing each one is. There is only a few YouTubers that produce completely unbiased stuff (eg The Hook Up)

        • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 09:37

          Sure thing mate, i watched The Hook Up review too. Good thing about buying Costco is we got 60 days to return if we are not happy.

      • samfisher5986 on 19/07/2024 - 09:43

        Keep in mind a lot of those reviews are probably in dark rooms and projecting at a small size.

        You'll want a review on a 300" projection and without needing a super expensive projection wall/paint.

    • Stuj on 19/07/2024 - 12:26

      Yes i totally agree you’d need 3000 minimum

  • dirtyhen on 19/07/2024 - 09:17

    Is it possible to mount it to the ceiling?

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 10:15

      Yes

    • tunzafun001 on 19/07/2024 - 10:17

      I used 2 of those super strong packaging straps mounted to a roof beam. Projector hangs off straps. Bonus if straps are ceiling white.

      Cost $0

      But Im using a $150 projector

  • tunzafun001 on 19/07/2024 - 09:52

    Any info on how many watts it draws?

    Many 75"+ TVs use more energy than our Aircon (which is currently using 500w).

    Projector seems to be the go. I have a cheapy Chinesium for movies (5m screen). Still going strong after 10yrs, uses 120w

    • Hasslefree on 19/07/2024 - 10:03

      Power consumption - 180W
      Standby consumption - ≤0.5W

    • hen dawg on 19/07/2024 - 11:59

      75in TV's using over 500w? I'd be surprised

      • tunzafun001 on 19/07/2024 - 13:48

        I put an energy monitor on an LG 8K TV (it was 80").

        Running the 'pretty sales vid"… it was pulling just on 800w!

        Front sticker suggested it will chew 300 watts (after doing the maths) on average.

  • AftaBargain on 19/07/2024 - 10:14

    Can this be hanged from ceiling?

  • DealsMonger on 19/07/2024 - 11:21

    Was excited until I saw the reviews and realised I cant use my 5.1 soundbars without wires hanging around or drill some holes in the wall . I will wait for a UST deal now :-(

  • cerealJay on 19/07/2024 - 12:27

    Looks quality, but aren't short-throws the way to go for projectors these days? What would be the reason for not getting a short-throw? They are much neater to install, and no problems with people walking in front of image or having the noisy fan right next to you where you're sitting, etc.

    • Cordova on 19/07/2024 - 12:34

      Existing mount perhaps, or if it's a temporary setup that gets put away when not being used, Ultra-Short Throw projectors are a pain to align.

    • samfisher5986 on 19/07/2024 - 12:58

      Short throws/Ultra short throws are pretty bad in my opinion for the simple reason that they are generally limited to 100-150". At that point why are you getting a projector?

      A $2000 85" TV will outperform a projector in many ways.

      If you are getting a projector you generally want it as close to 300" as possible.

      • cerealJay on 19/07/2024 - 13:36

        limited to 100-150". At that point why are you getting a projector?

        Because 100 inches is a lot bigger than 85 inches, and 150 inches is almost twice the size! An 85 inch TV is a massive black object on your wall when not in use. And they're a lot more than $2000. Maybe your living area is the size of a basketball court, but many others have small or medium size spaces where 100-150 inches is enormous relative to seating distance.

    • hen dawg on 19/07/2024 - 14:27

      One point is UST generally needs an expensive ALR screen in addition. Regular projector not so much

  • adam149 on 19/07/2024 - 13:25

    Hisense aren't exactly a household name for projectors
