XGIMI has Become the Best Android-Powered Projector Manufacturer on the market. From its Portable Projectors to its Laser TV, all Have Received Glowing Ratings from the Android Media
XGIMI’s goal is to create products that seamlessly blend into home spaces and are supremely easy to use. To that end, XGIMI has integrated full Android TV into all of their projectors. This means that users have access to thousands of their favorite apps and be up and running with their favorite shows instantly. Android TV means users can sync their content across all of their devices so they never miss the latest episodes and built-in Chromecast allows users to quickly cast movies or photos straight to the projector. XGIMI has painstakingly designed their projectors to take advantage of everything ANdroid TV has to offer. XGIMI’s auto keystone, auto focus and Intelligent Screen Adaption (ISA) technology allows users the ability to set up their XGIMI device from almost any angle and in almost any environment with ease, making XGIMI projectors supremely easy to use.
Since expanding into the Western markets in 2020, XGIMI has quickly gained the attention of Android media as being one of the best Android-powered projector manufacturers on the market. Some of the most well respected technology and Android fan sites have consistently given XGIMI projectors top ranks and reviews including Android Police, Android Central, Android Authority, Phandroid, Android Headlines, Talk Android, and even CNN & CNET have raved about XGIMI’s responsive Android UI integration.
Android Central gave Recommended badges to XGIMI’s Horizon Pro, Elfin, Aura and Halo+, while Android Headlines named Horizon Pro the Best Android Powered Projector You Can Buy and dished out its Editor’s Choice award. Android Police named both Halo+ and Aura as Best Android Projectors, saying “It’s safe to say that the Halo+ is the best portable projector around.” CNET said of the Halo+ “the simplicity of the built-in Android TV interface and its myriad streaming options makes it far easier to use than many previous portable projectors we’ve liked.” Android Central also named XGIMI’s MoGo Pro to their list of Best Android Powered Projectors.
The prestigious Expert Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) even noted in this year’s award citation for XGIMI’s AURA UST projector, that “smart features, provided by the Android OS, include video-on-demand apps and screen mirroring, ensuring this high-performance UST projector lives up to its home entertainment promise,” – AURA was awarded a Best Product award for the UST category.
XGIMI is committed to elevating home projection and staying the Best Android Powered Projector manufacturer and will continue to adapt the latest version of Android TV to ensure that users will always have the best experience. “When developing our products, we always focus on the user and reimagine what is possible with home entertainment. Our goal is to offer each customer a simple and comfortable viewing experience. The integration of Android TV laid the foundation for smooth cinematic moments,”said Tex Yang, VP of Global Business.

Key Android Media Highlights
“The projector runs on Android TV 10.0, which means if you have an Android phone, setup is as simple as saying “OK Google, set up new device.” Your phone will find the Horizon Pro, get it onto your Wi-Fi network, and sign you in on Google services like YouTube.” – CNN about HORIZON Pro
“The XGIMI Horizon Pro is an exceptionally bright, Android-powered projector that doesn’t skimp on the audio either.” Android Headlines about HORIZON Pro
“If you are looking for some wireless fun, the Halo Plus offers a better, brighter image than many competing projectors. The simplicity of the built-in Android TV interface and its myriad streaming options makes it far easier to use than many previous portable projectors we’ve liked. You’ll have to pay quite a bit for that ease of use and performance though.” CNET about Halo+
“With Android TV 9.0 on board, the Xgimi Mogo Pro is one of the best portable budget projectors. It offers a 1080p image with 300 ANSI Lumens, two 3W speakers, two to four hours of playback, and HDMI and USB inputs too,” Android Central.
“High resolution, excellent luminosity, loud and clear sound (four 15W Harman Kardon speakers with Dolby Audio), and again, Android TV on board. The latter remains one of the coolest selling points for me. I have YouTube, Plex, Amazon Prime Video, Spotify, and my local French streaming services all running on it, without the need to plug in anything extra. I can cast anything from my phone or iPad to it, mirror my phone’s display, or use Google Assistant to control it,” Android Authority.
“The inclusion of Android TV out of the box is still my favorite feature of XGIMI’s projectors. I can install the streaming apps I use all the time — Plex, YouTube, Prime Video, Apple TV+, RMC Sport, SFR Play — and watch everything I’d watch on my regular TV and my Chromecast with Google TV,” Android Police about Elfin.
“The Halo+ runs Android 10, and I mean runs it — this isn’t one of those Android projectors with a tiny streaming stick tucked within. The experience is really nice, with full access to the Play Store and all, and the silicon here has the power here to let you navigate around the Android TV interface incredibly smoothly. That also means it’s quick to start up, and is ready to go from standby within 6 seconds of hitting “power” on the remote. From a cold boot situation, that takes quite a bit longer, though still nothing egregious: the Halo+ takes around 40 seconds to start up, and maybe another 10 to fully populate the screen with thumbnails from your favorite media sources,” Android Police about Halo+.
“The Android 10 interface itself should be familiar if you’ve used Android TV in the past, and the internal hardware ensures there’s no lag when using the Halo+. It has beefier hardware in the form of MediaTek’s quad-core MT9629 platform, and you get 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage,” Android Police about Halo.
“Setting up the Horizon Pro is about as straightforward as it gets. It has a tripod mount at the base that lets you easily set it up in your home, and because it runs Android TV, installation takes under five minutes,” Android Central about HORIZON Pro
“When it comes to portable projectors, there’s a huge variety to choose from but if you are wanting the full Android TV experience with access to apps on the Play Store then Xgimi is the only brand you need to consider. As the only manufacturer of projectors running the Android TV platform, Xgimi is running a number of compelling deals on its portable projectors which includes the MoGo model that retails for $499 but is currently reduced to just $299 for a limited time,” TalkAndroid of MoGo
“For a portable projector there’s convenience in the form of an automatic procedure that optimises the picture when the Halo+ is moved, meaning you won’t have to worry about fiddling with the image each time. There are smarts with Android TV supported with its convenient and intuitive layout,” Trusted Reviews about Halo+
“XGIMI’s beefed-up Halo projector is close to being the perfect portable projector. While it stands less than seven inches high, it packs a 1080p DLP chip and a 900 ANSI Lumens LED light source, giving you crisper, brighter Full HD images than any other projector this small can manage. What’s more, you get a built-in Android TV 10 streamer and DTS and Dolby Audio sound. You can get it up and running in minutes, and the picture quality is mostly fantastic,” Expert Reviews about Halo+
