I tested all the projectors XGIMI released in the last five years, and there's no doubt in my mind that the Horizon 20 Max is the best of the lot. I want to highlight three areas where the projector has a clear advantage: lens shift with optical zoom, bright projection, and a built-in gimbal.
Lens shift in particular is a game-changer, as it basically allows me to position the Horizon 20 Max anywhere, and adjust the projection as needed. I used the projector with a 100-inch ALR panel, and setting it up with the screen was so easy that it just took a matter of minutes. I previously used the XGIMI Aura UST projector mostly because it was just easier to set up — I didn't want to bother mounting a long-throw projector — but with the Horizon 20 Max, I just put it on a nightstand, and the projector automatically adjusted the image scaling.
