XGIMI Mogo Pro Plus exterior design

An interesting design despite the fact that it is a rather small product

We cannot draw many conclusions regarding the design that is offered to us, since we are talking about a fairly small product. However, this is precisely what ends up making it more striking , since it can be easily moved anywhere, in fact, we can carry it in our pocket and there will be no problem.

At first glance it seems to be more of a speaker than a projector, and that gives it a special touch . Obviously at the front we will find its lens that is slightly hidden, in addition, the color that is implemented we loved, since despite its size it can offer a good elegance in any position, in fact it can serve as decoration .

Its thickness is a little more pronounced if we see it from the side, however, it is not something that is going to disturb its transfer. On the contrary, it is still a fairly light product, so much so that it barely reaches 900 grams . Something that has left us very surprised. In the back we will have a clean style, since not many connectors are added.

Connectivity

The physical connectors will not be many, and that is totally understandable taking into account several points , however, those that have been included will be essential to get the most out of the mini projector. Among the most remarkable we have an HDMI input that will be the most used, since it is the one that offers us the transmission of video and sound from devices such as laptops, consoles or video players. The performance feels very decent.

As if that were not enough, we are also offered a USB 2.0 port that allows us to play content that we have saved in a memory. It is usually quite useful for this action, in addition, its transmission speed is acceptable. Likewise, it has a headphone output , for the wireless issue we will have Wi-Fi which offers us greater possibilities, however, its main attraction is that it has Bluetooth 5.0 for better results.

Projection quality and more features to highlight

The XGIMI Mogo Pro + may seem harmless, but it includes a very interesting projection quality. Something that stands out more in a product with these physical capabilities. To begin with , we have a Full HD resolution that will be the native one for this equipment . Therefore, we will receive clear images with more accurate and realistic details.

So that this happens and there is not much difference with respect to the larger projectors, the automatic focus technology is included that guarantees that the projected image is clear and bright. After testing it we can mention that it is a real point , therefore, we will have a quite pleasant viewing experience.

As if that were not enough, it offers us other enhancement functions that greatly elevate the final experience that we are going to have at the image level. One of the most important is the Keystone correction that offers us a rectangular image in just a matter of seconds from a side projection, thus obtaining favorable viewing angles at all times .

Likewise, we can obtain a 3D projection with a 100-inch screen that from the aforementioned we can say that it is equivalent to four 50-inch televisions. This allows us to achieve a totally vivid image that gives us a first-rate experience in both general viewing and video games.

Sound

Your sound system may seem simple, since only two speakers are included that offer us a total power of 6W , which in principle may seem insufficient when listening to dialogues or the ambient sound of movies or any content that is more demanding . However, we were surprised by its sound.

We say this because we find that it has the original Harman / Kardon sound technology, therefore, the sound will be adjusted in a professional way through the also known Gold Ear Philosophy system, which gives the speaker of this projector balance and precision for all kinds of music , although you can also buy a sound bar.

Other worthwhile features of the XGIMI Mogo Pro +

Despite being portable, it offers us great features that we can take full advantage of

Get ready to find out how equipped the XGIMI Mogo Pro Plus is , I will try not to dwell on too much and make all the points clear. For starters, it includes a larger capacity battery giving us between 2 to 4 hours of video playback. It is really portable since it measures only 14.7 cm and weighs only 0.90 kg , therefore, it takes up very little space.

Among its main benefits we have Android TV that allows us to get a lot of fun. Obviously we will be able to visualize the main streaming platforms that offer us more than 700,000 movies. We also have Google Assistant that allows us to perform various actions using only our voice for greater control.

As if that were not enough, we can use more than 5,000 applications thanks to having Android 9.0, obviously it also includes Chromecast to transmit movies, videos, music and images from your smartphone. It includes a 2GB memory and 16GB storage that will be ideal for work . Nor is it a projector that tires the eyes.
