Xgimi MoGo Pro vs Xiaomi Mi smart compact projector

🠗 🠗 🠗 Main conclusions and findings in this description 🠗 🠗 🠗
- Both versatile Full HD mini projectors with excellent dual band wifi connectivity running on Android TV 9 with LED light source.
- Both devices come equipped with internal Chromecast for easy casting from both Android and iPhone's.
- Both devices come equipped with auto vertical keystone and auto focus making set up pretty easy.

Differences:
- Xiaomi Mi is much brighter, sharper, less noisy, has a better speaker and got official Netflix support.
- Only MoGo Pro has horizontal keystoning (40°), 3D support and a battery.
- MoGo Pro doesn't have official Netflix support. But it can be installed via XTV manager which pretty much works just as well, except that you must use the projector remote. Only on the Xiaomi Mi you can cast Netflix from the Netflix app on your phone.
- MoGo Pro has a faster processor resulting in faster loading times.
- Xiaomi Mi needs a little refocus after 15-45min when it has a 'cold start'.
- Xiaomi Mi has occasional audio hiccups if sound is sent through HDMI input to projector speaker.
- Bluetooth headset works best with MoGo Pro. Xiaomi Mi has some delay.
- MoGo Pro must be logged in to Google, Xiaomi Mi works without logging in.
- Xiaomi Mi needs a little refocus after 15-45min when it has a 'cold start' in colder climates. After which it will stay in focus.
This can be circumvented in four ways:
1) Start the projector beforehand to warm up a bit and trigger autofocus before watching.
2) While watching series, accept some blurriness at the end of the first episode and trigger autofocus before going to the next.
3) Trigger autofocus immediately after startup and add between +3 and +5 correction steps to the right. This way clarity will gradually go from good to excellent.
4) Turn off autofocus altogether and don't move the projector.

Notes:
- Tripod and case accessories are not included.
- Both projectors suffer from a little bit of judder in 24Hz and 25Hz modes.
- Video is filmed in 30fps. 'Spring'-video clips are 24fps. High framerate recordings of the judder clips can be found in the link below.
- Default settings are used unless otherwise noted.
- In reality the viewability of the bright daylight recordings was a bit better in real life. But we've chosen camera settings optimized to show the difference between these projectors in the clearest way.

***Software update september 12 2020***
After updating the Xiaomi Mi to the latest firmware version various issue's previously mentioned have been addressed.
-Bluetooth lag has significantly improved towards usable levels.
-Sound hiccups from audio over HDMI input largely solved.
-Improved fluid playback/judder.

Which projector should I buy?
For best picture quality, brightness and sound (if internally streamed), go for the Xiaomi Mi smart compact projector. If you are looking for: 100% wireless projection (battery), horizontal keystone for sideway projection, 3D, decent Bluetooth headset support or if you are sensitive to judder, then take a look at the Xgimi MoGo Pro.

[EMANIAC]

O man! Great job! Not even a word said but i know all i need👍🙂

[arthitratta]

The picture quality Xiaomi is better than Mogo pro but Mogo pro is easy to carry everywhere you want because there is battery built in and can adjust keystone +-40 degree vertical and horizontal. Xiaomi can only adjust vertical. Finally depend on your decision to choose it. Thanks for your review.
