The Hisense C2 Pro is a 4K laser projector offering great flexibility in installation and use. With a projected image diagonal ranging from 65 to 300 inches, it adapts to all spaces and preferences. Its optical zoom and variable throw ratio from 0.9 to 1.5:1 make it easy to install without being constrained by the distance to the screen.
Project wherever you want thanks to its 360° rotating stand and vertical tilt angle up to 135°. Automatic geometry adjustment powered by artificial intelligence (Auto Magic AI 2.0) simplifies setup by correcting keystone distortion at 9 points. The C2 Pro even detects obstacles to adapt the image.
At the heart of the C2 Pro is a DLP chip combined with an RGB triple-laser light source producing 2600 ANSI lumens. This high brightness ensures vivid images, even in rooms that are not fully darkened.
The native 4K UHD resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) is enhanced by broad HDR compatibility (Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10, HLG) and an extended color gamut covering 110% of the BT.2020 space. With its native contrast of 2000:1 and its ability to display 1.07 billion colors, the C2 Pro delivers breathtaking images rich in detail and nuance.
Film buffs will appreciate the IMAX Enhanced certification and Filmmaker Mode, which honor directors’ intent. Sports fans will benefit from motion interpolation (MEMC) for ultra-smooth images. Gamers are also catered for with a dedicated game mode and active 3D compatibility.
On the connectivity side, the C2 Pro is equipped with two HDMI 2.1 ports (including one eARC-compatible), two USB 3.0 ports, an optical audio output, and an Ethernet port. Wi-Fi 6e and Bluetooth are also included for wireless connection to peripherals.
Running on the VIDAA U7 operating system, the C2 Pro provides access to numerous streaming apps. It integrates the Alexa and VIDAA Voice assistants for voice control. You can cast content from a smartphone or tablet via AirPlay or screen mirroring.
Hisense has integrated a JBL soundbar delivering 2 x 10 watts of power. Compatible with Dolby Audio and offering a surround effect, it ensures an immersive sound experience. Several listening modes are available (Standard, Cinema, Music, Voice, Night) as well as a configurable equalizer.
With only 28 dB of noise, the C2 Pro remains discreet even in a bedroom. Its lifespan is estimated at 25,000 hours, which equals more than 10 years with 6 hours of daily use. An automatic eye-protection mode is included.
The C2 Pro proves to be slightly less discreet than the C2 Ultra and approaches the noise level of the Valérion, with an increase of only 1 dB between the ambient noise of a room without a projector (35.2 dB) and that with the projector in operation (36.2 dB). Although a 1 dB increase is not significant, what particularly bothered me was the inconsistency of the ventilation. Indeed, the fan noise level sometimes varies, increasing and then decreasing unpredictably, which can be quite annoying while watching a movie, thus disrupting the immersion.
The exact lifespan of the C2 Pro’s laser light source is not specified. However, modern laser projectors generally offer a lifespan of 25,000 hours, which equates to several years of daily use without needing replacement.
With its 2600-lumen brightness, the C2 Pro can be used in moderately lit rooms. However, for the best performance, it’s recommended to use it in an environment where ambient light can be controlled, such as a dark or semi-dark room.
While the C2 Pro can project onto various surfaces, using a dedicated projection screen is recommended for the best possible image quality. A matte white or light gray screen designed for front projection will offer the best results in terms of brightness and color fidelity.
The C2 Ultra stands out with higher brightness, better sound thanks to the built-in subwoofer, and advanced gaming features, but this is reflected in its higher price compared to the C2 Pro.

Very good projector with excellent image processing and perfectly suited for video games! Downside: the brand advertises Alexa compatibility, but that's not actually the case!
Still, I give it 5 stars.
