Minor correction on the weight of the Halo Plus, you said 686g, but the scale showed 1686g (kzread.info/dash/bejne/qXqXrsyrd8uwiqQ.html ), that's a significant difference.

I can't imagine the time and hardwork you've put in this review. It was one of the most comprehensive and yet very interesting - not a second was wasted. One of the best reviews, based on objective evidence. Thank you so much
You are the gold standard when it comes to reviews! Thanks for taking the time to do these!

kzread.info/dash/bejne/mWihz8uLZtrWorA.html As you can see the Mogo Pro isn't really showing 1080p due to the small 540p DMD which is pixelshifted. The Elfin from Xgimi is also pixelshifted but since it is a larger DMD and higher than 540p originally it shows almost the same as 1080p res. I'm only mentioning this as you say in the video you prefer the 1080p from the Mogo Pro than the 720p on the competing projector but in reality the 720p may be better (the 720p H8 from wowoto I tried with the Mogo Pro once seemed sharper to me than the Mogo Pro and also had a far more vibrant image).@@TheHookUp
When looking for a projector I didn’t realise I would watch the best product review I’d ever seen in my entire life. Love the video
This must be one of the best reviews i've ever seen, very cool! It's great to see the actual differences in picture quality in the 'shoot out' comparison. Hoping to see the LG PF610 and PF510Q soon in a review. The latter is said to be amazing with HDR, despite only 450 lumens
this is an excellent video. thanks for being so thorough!

I thought the same. Just about the best compliment any product tester could get.
Like many others on here, I received without prompting, the Samsung Freestyle link and was blown away - then of course went into research mode and came across your very clear and objective reviews. Many thanks, I have learned a great deal and am now much better placed to select the optimum portable projector to meet or needs/wishes. Great work.
I am after a portable projector and just discovered your channel. You really know your stuff mate. I honestly feel I don't need to look elsewhere for a second opinion on anything you had already reviewed. Great job👍
This was an outstanding review. Thank you! I purchased the Capsule 3 and had several issues after receiving a system update. More lagginess and a number of problems with switching between inputs, as in it would randomly change on its own. Strange. Have now purchased the Halo+ Great work!
I use XGIMI Halo+ at home and I'm very happy with it. We don't have tv and it's on all day long. Good thing is you don't have to place it to the middle of th room! It's staying in a corner and it can adjust the view.
I dont even want a portable projector but I watch your reviews and comparisons because they are so well thought out and executed correctly. Thanks for always providing quality and accurate content.
Just watched the LED Diffuser video, and I was super impressed with how organized & well-structured of a review it was. I thought to myself, "Certainly not ALL of their videos are of this quality" Never been happier to have been wrong 😂😂 Keep up the great content!
Man, I was looking to get a projector for fun, and was not sure what to expect, so I was looking at so many different projectors and this review helped me so much narrowing down my options. 10/10 review.

What was your choice? I'm curious.
Thank you for another concise and comprehensive comparative review! I love that you get straight to the point and analyze key metrics.
I don't think I have ever seen a more complete video. Amazing work!
Realy in-depth and no bull review! Appreciated!
After watching dozens of other confusing reviews I thought I wasn't going to find something so straight forward and complete, but here we are. Such an amazing review!
Ok that intro was amazing hahah, I absolutely adore both you & project farm, What a amazing nod to him!!
I LOVE Project Farm, and this is the best thing I've seen all week. I considered you the "project farm" for home gadgets and automation anyway so it was perfect. Very well done!

Completely got Project Farm vibes on the "Mogo is made in China" - NAILED IT!
this video comparison is amazing! you were able to somehow allow us to compare these products in several quality points, through an youtube video. Felt just like if we were actually there, great job!
this has to be one of the best comparison reviews I've ever watched on YT. Well done.
This video is so detailed and your testing methods are well thought out. Just amazingly well done.
Man, we need more people like you, knowledgeable and passionate. Your work is beyond excellent.
This is hands down the most concise and useful review video I've ever seen.
Projection distance would have been an interesting metric to note. I'm contemplating buying a projector that we could also use outside for movie nights during the summer and we'll need a longer range. But even though mobile would feels like it should fit this scenario I suspect a lot of them aren't powerful enough for much more than a few meters. But, the quality of work in the rest of the comparisons was really helpful and I thank you for the clear and comprehensive comparisons for so many core metrics. You've informed my next steps for my own rental comparisons. Thanks for your work!
This projector gets the job done pretty well. kzread.infoUgkxS9P8zTOcmQg-hH0QeUi3dspOLyYgQ6dH Bear in mind it's a mini projector but all things considered the picture quality is pretty good. The attached photo is of the projector projecting onto my white closet doors. I still have not messed with the settings but I can't wait for our first family movie night on a larger scale. If you have issues with volume not working with your firestick, go into volume settings and you will find your solution there.
Greetings from Portugal...I have been a big fan of the LG PF50KS so much that I gave it to my step-son at half life and bought another one for myself...I use the unit behind my headboard on a bookself that projects onto an 100 inch fixed screen on the wall...Absolutely fantastic home cinema...Combined with the LG dolby Atmos soundbar...Tough package to beat under a €1,000 euros...At night I use Audio Techinca headphones via bluetooth which works really well via LG...everything is plugged into an mini pc with ryzen 5 and vega graphics which makes the images pop! Waiting for prices to come down on LG 4k led projector...Overall satisfied with LG quality...😉🇵🇹📽👏👌🎧
This could possibly be the most thorough review I’ve seen on KZread…this is what we all should expect…nice
I love your hard work and thoroughness. Even Consumer Reports could take some notes from you 😂
This isthe most detailed video i ever seen i usually dont subscribe but honesty u deserve big one. All the work u put in to this video big thank u
I usually don’t ever comment on videos but I had to comment on this. Thank you for posting this. 🙏🏼 saved me so much time 💕
I adore this work you did with exploring all the features!!! Thanks for saving our time ♥
This channel brings so much detailed specs, very nice! It reminds me a bit of ProjectFarm but different category
Perfect coverage of all specs. Thank you!!
Thoroughly enjoyed all the little nods to PF, also a very informative video.
Incredible review. So thorough. I really appreciated the graphs and summary at the end.
Thank you. This is what I was looking for!
I cannot express my appreciation for this video in terms anywhere near as accurate or thorough as the information provided in said video. Thank you!
Probably the best and most thoughtful video I have seen about compact projectors. Thank you, now I'm reconsidering the idea of buying a Samsung Freestyle and the idea of keeping a projector at home as my main display for Films and video games.
I subscribed right away. The analysis is just awesome.
Exactly what I was looking for and needed for a decision. Great comparison with valuable insights!
Beautiful and thorough review as always - thanks!
I dont usually subscribe to Review channels as i find what i need when i need it. However have to make an exception for you mate. Best review channel on youtube by a mile. Thank you for putting in so much work in your videos. It has helped me massively with my purchases.
Great comparison bro!! Wish all the reviews/comparisons would ve like yours! ❤
I really wish the throw distance/range were included in this review. How short of a throw and still focused and how far and still within ANSI tolerance. But this is an awesome resource for deciding which projector to purchase for casting monochrome microscopy images for taking very accurate measurements :)
Fantastic thorough group test/ review, great stuff! Thanks. Subscribed
This projectors reviews are gold. Congratulations. Waiting for the next one. By the way, after seeing this, I wonder if the specs (basically ansi lumens, on:off contrast and noise) of higher level proyectors of more established companies like sony, panasonic, JVC... are true as they claim.
Amazingly detailed and well thought out review! Thank you so much for this!
dude this is a proper review! Great job
This is probably the best comparison video I've ever seen. Like it was that damn good, wow!
This video was so well done. Straight to the point. New follower.
Extraordinary video. This is everything that I need to know about projectors. Amazing job done by the guy in researching and putting together the information. Extremely helpful. Thank you so much. Kudos to you. 🎉
Getting solid ProjectFarm vibes and I dig it. Another great product tester on youtube.
Hi I would like to say a massive thank you for your work and efforts - Your detail and information is very informative With this i have purchased a Halo Plus and look forward to watching it when it’s delivered 👍🏾
Thank you so much for this incredibly thorough review!
Great video! I felt lost choosing a projector until finding this video! Thanks 🙏
A complete review. Excellent work! Keep it up! 🤛🏻
I’m still not in the market for one of these but after watching your newest video I had to go back and rewatch this one :)
I found your review very thorough and useful. Good stuff !!
Keep it up... more videos like this are needed
This review was awesome. Incredible objective analysis. Thanks for this meticulous work!!!
Amazing review! Kudos!
Absolutly amazing test, helped me a ton with choosing travel projector🥃
One of the best reviews ever seen!
This is the kind of comparison we need. Thanks for the efforts! ♥ Any new favorites since it's mid 2023?

Thank you for the time and effort that you used to produce this comparison.
Nice project farm style delivery, snappy and factual with no B.S. But I do still value your personal opinion and preferences. And could you do an updated shootout for projectors suited for whole house projection?
Fantastic and comprehensive review. Thank you
Wow what a great break down. Thank you.
Thanks for another one Rob. Our new house doesn’t have a place for a permanent projector so I may sell my old portable and our home cinema projector and move to one of these until our next house.
Really helpful to know that the LG brightness is less than half what is claimed, really helped me steer clear of it
Awesome work you do thank you!
Great video, thanks mate.
I know it’s not “portable” but would love to see you review the Epson ef12! Thanks for the detailed reviews
Looks to comments, yup, "Project Farm style". Glad I'm not the only one. Nailed it.
U got a thumb up and subscriber . This video is top-notch. Personally, I am a samsung user , am waiting for the second gen of free style to comeout. Unless the price for freestyle drops. Your video is awesome thanks for all the effort and time u took to make one.
Bought one with your link. Thanks for your help.
Thank you for the review !
You're great. All things are clear (almost) in my mind.
As a dark theme enjoyer I enjoyed this highly informative video very much! Excellent job!
Exceptional work!
thanks for your review I’ve been holding onto it for a few months finally made my purchase. I went with the Samsung freestyle. I love it. 😂 are usually don’t do this, but I got it from eBay basically new in box. with the socket plug mounts thingie and the carrying case all for $325 at that price for me it’s so worth it.
best review I have ever seen. Well done.
Fabulous video, thanks!
Thanks, they were very helpful to me.
Thank you very much for a quality review. This is the kind of value I deeply appreciate.
Seriously, reviews like this shouldn't be free yet here we are. Subbed
Thanks I only new that projectors sounds like a good idea
