The XGIMI Horizon S Max is a high-end 4K projector that incorporates the latest innovations in image projection. Equipped with Dual Light 2.0 technology, it combines an LED light source with a laser source to deliver an exceptional brightness of 3100 ISO lumens, while ensuring a wide color gamut and optimal color accuracy with a Delta E of less than 1.
This projector is certified IMAX Enhanced and Dolby Vision, two standards that ensure stunning image quality. With IMAX Enhanced, you enjoy a big-screen experience worthy of an IMAX cinema, while Dolby Vision offers incredibly vivid and detailed images, with striking contrasts and vibrant colors. The Horizon S Max covers 99% of the DCI-P3 color space, providing remarkably faithful colors.
The XGIMI Horizon S Max stands out with its modern and refined design. With its cubic shape and smooth curves, it blends harmoniously into any interior. Its wool fabric covering and “golden mist” hue add an extra touch of elegance.
But the Horizon S Max is not just about aesthetics; it is also highly practical thanks to its integrated flexible stand. Mounted on a swivel, it can tilt vertically up to 135° and rotate 360° horizontally. This flexibility allows for easy positioning of the projector without the need for additional accessories, even for ceiling projection.
The XGIMI Horizon S Max is equipped with ISA (Intelligent Screen Adaptation) 5.0 technology, which greatly facilitates its installation and daily use. Key features include:
All these features allow for plug-and-play installation and optimal daily use comfort. You enjoy a perfect image in any circumstance without having to make manual adjustments.
The XGIMI Horizon S Max runs on Android TV 11, a system that provides access to a vast catalog of apps and content. You can enjoy your favorite streaming services like YouTube, Prime Video, or Disney+ directly from the projector. HDMI 2.0 eARC connectivity and USB ports, as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, allow for easy connection of your external devices.
To complement the visual experience, the Horizon S Max is equipped with two 12W speakers designed by Harman Kardon. With their patented ring design, they deliver immersive 360° sound of cinema-quality. You are immersed in the action with realistic sound spatialization.
In addition to its performance, the XGIMI Horizon S Max has obtained several certifications that attest to its respect for users’ visual comfort:
You enjoy a pleasant experience without eye strain, even during long usage sessions.
The XGIMI Horizon S Max is the high-end model with a brightness of 3100 ISO lumens and IMAX Enhanced certification in addition to Dolby Vision. The XGIMI Horizon S Pro has a brightness of 1800 ISO lumens and is certified Dolby Vision only. Other features are identical between the two models.
Although very bright with its 3100 lumens, the Horizon S Max is not designed for outdoor use. The lack of an integrated battery, sensitivity to weather conditions (humidity, dust, etc.), and insufficient brightness against direct sunlight are limiting factors. This projector is primarily intended for indoor use, in a room that can be darkened to fully enjoy the projected image.
XGIMI announces a lifespan of 25,000 hours for the Dual Light 2.0 system, which combines an LED and a triple laser. This represents nearly 10 years of use at 7 hours per day. This is much more than traditional lamp projectors, which require regular replacement every 3,000 to 6,000 hours. With the Horizon S Max, maintenance is therefore reduced for a controlled long-term usage cost.
The dual hinge design offers great installation flexibility while ensuring excellent mechanical stability. The 360° horizontal rotation and up to 135° vertical tilt allow the projector to be positioned in the room according to the configuration, without additional accessories. You can easily project on the wall or ceiling. Moreover, the hinges firmly hold the projector, limiting vibrations even at high sound volumes. Finally, this original cubic design adds a touch of elegance that integrates harmoniously into a contemporary interior.
