Formovie, the Chinese projector maker that garnered attention with its impressive Formovie Theater UST projector, has now announced the preorder availability of its new compact 1080p projector, the Xming Episode One. This tiny powerhouse, priced at an affordable $299, promises to deliver an immersive movie experience, perfect for backyard movie nights. With its lightweight and diminutive design, weighing just 2.8 pounds and measuring 6.9 by 4.8 by 5.6 inches, it is easy to move around and set up.
Although compact, the Xming Episode One packs a punch with its LED light source that provides 150 CVIA lumens of brightness, equivalent to 122 ANSI lumens. This level of brightness allows for a clear image on screens up to 120 inches in size, with a throw ratio of 1.2:1. The projector can be placed anywhere from 40 to 120 inches from the screen, making it suitable for small to medium-sized rooms.
Setting up the projector is a breeze thanks to its auto keystone correction and autofocus features. The projector runs on the Google TV operating system, which provides seamless access to a wide range of streaming services and apps available on the Google Play Store. With Netflix preinstalled, users can easily cast content from their smartphones or compatible devices using Chromecast.
