The firmware mystery is so strange. I've gotten 3-4 OTA firmware updates since I got the PX3 and I've heard that so many people are stuck on the June firmware.
Very strange. I spent at least 3 hours fighting with it before giving up. At least we know it’s capable. I just finished watching your ultra short wrap up (I purposely waited until I was done with this video) Great job as usual!!
I had talked to you about the Hisense 100" ALR Frenal screen ( the hard screen, not the stretched kit screen ) that arrived on a 8ft skid in a huge box. Paired it with a VAVA 4k and it is AWSOME! Thanks for the recommendation. The future is frenal, as you said.
Great review again. Nice and unbiased. I’m hoping you’ll get one of the Valerion projectors to review as they seem to be getting good reviews. Be nice to hear your opinion on them.
Got the PX3 PRO for e few day´s now here in Europe. The International Version does not run on Google Tv but instead on Hisense own Vidaa Software. I had the Formovie Theater before but this PX3 Pro blows it out of the Water. The only thing that they could add in the menu is a Focus Reset. more then happy with it 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you for the all the in depth info!! Would you prefer this over the AWOL 3500? I am also looking to use the projector mounted on my deck. So also some daytime use.
Thank you for the video! I feel like what's missing - and maybe I'm weird about this - is a video on reliability among manufacturers. So contacting retailers and getting information on fault-rate. If a $3000 projector has a 5% chance of failing at 2 years then I'm going to choose another that looks 5% worse but will last double the time on average. More relevant for Chinese projectors, for which I can't seem to find 4-5 year warranties in Europe.
when i bought my VAVA CHROMA few years back with their 120" ALR screen , would NEVER go back to regular TV , well would be only for bedrooms , everyone i know lovin this Projector in pic & Brightness & when i bought Hisense 75" U8H TV from my bedroom last year , absolutely lovin this brand & the TV ..great in pic & blks , i would getting this on holiday Prices for sure & for now on gonna be my go to brand comes to TVS & Projectors!
I have the Hisense 100" ALR Frenal screen ( the hard screen, not the stretched kit screen ) that arrived on a 8ft skid in a huge box. Paired it with a VAVA 4k and it is AWSOME! I had conversed with the host of The Hook Up and he felt it was a good screen. Thanks @TheHookUp for the recommendation. The future is frenal, as you said.
one of my favortie things about projector is no glare or reflections!! Now when I go to someones house with a tv, all i see are the reflections. Projector for life for me
@@johnf4680 We're in 2024, and you're still trying to prove this ? Thats why everyone has now 120hz tv's at home, 120/240/360 even 480hz pc monitors , and 240hz Projectors yeah sure its "Unimportant" 🤣
Thanks for your reviews Chris! So, considering I'm into watching 3D and HDR movies on a relatively dark ambient, which Laser TV would you recommend? Absolute best and best quality/price?
This is all new to me. Something else for me to spend money on. And it is not cheap. But you explained it with everything you need to know and expect. For some reason 100"s seems like a bit overkill for me until I see it in person. Then "I have to have it."
Chris can I ask if I would get ALLM and 120/240 fps if I pair the Hisense PX3 Pro with my PLAYSTATION5 Pro console (the newly launched pro version is what I have). Also does this have a theatre/cinema mode where true 24fps for movies can be seen without the television effect (also known on some models as the Directors mode or Theatre mode). And does it support Dolby Vision content though the Apple TV 4K (latest generation). Thank you.
Objection; the spec list lists both "4k native" and "pixel shifting". 4K native is a DLP or panel (LCD or LCoS) that's actually 4K, not pixel shifting.
Native as in native resolution of the projector, not the DLP chip. I’ve done multiple videos on 4k certification and pixel shifting. I’ve even pixel peeped native 4k lcos projectors next to 4x pixel shifting projectors and nobody in the room could tell the difference. Now to be fair, not all pixel shifting is good quality but I wouldn’t dismiss the technology altogether.
@ChrisMajestic 💔 my old Samsung TV can do a decent job at 3D'ing anything so hopefully someday UST's can do the same. I hope you review the Formovie Premium soon!
Thanks for this review! Couple of quick questions. What size projection is your set up - 120"? Also, what's the minimum ceiling height to project a 120" image using a standard TV bench?
Great review Chris, as always.!! 🎉 Please may I ask does anyone know if this projector, or similar, have 'Digital Zoom' so the Image can be 'Zoomed In/Enlarged' using the Remote?? Thank you g
Hello chris, do you onow if its possible to use the px3 speaker as a center speaker? Really considering this as a replacement for a tcl635-75 , other option would be an epson 3800 or 5050 (but keep the tcl behind the screen). I game quite a lot though. Center speaker placement could be an issue
I’m on the fence but here are some of my thoughts below. I had my thoughts on this in the video but had to remove it since it was too confusing. I like the awol a lot. It’s super bright but it lacks contrast and it has mediocre back levels. The px3-pro has amazing picture quality overall in a dark room (great contrast and better blacks) but during the day it kind of falls apart. This is where the awol shines. In a perfect would I’d use the awol during the day and the Hisense at night.
AWOL is brighter but has less contrast. You could argue that awol looks better during the day with som content but the Hisense looks better at night with all content. Hisense also has better black levels.
I'm stuck on the Hisense PX3 Pro & the Nexigo Aurora Pro Ultra. I do occasionally game with the PS5. This is for my basement family room that is blacked out.
If there would be no rainbow effect this would be a good option for me. But i still prefer a lot more LCD projectors than this DLP's because they don't have a rainbow effect.
I was curious with about the brightness I noticed in the downsides section you talked about the brightness for HDR content with ambient light not being that great. Would it be bright enough to watch SDR content during the day without the blinds closed? Or does that statement reply to SDR content as well?
It's bright enough to watch SDR in general but if the SDR content has a dark scene you're going to want to close the curtains in order to really see what's going on.
Hello my name is ricardo don't know if u can help me out with this 1 HDMI port 1 Normal 1 HDMI port 2 (SERVICIO) 1 HDMI port 3 (eARC/ARC) 1 Digital Audio Out Optical i buy TCL 55" 4K smart TV i'm looking for an good HDMI cable with an audio jack to hook up to my stereo system as my surround thank u 🙏🏽
It’s my screen lol. It was hung in a hurry with the hooks too close together causing the screen to bow at the top. You’re right though. I definitely need to fix it.
After he promoted the Vava chroma, which is still having serious problems today, I dont trust a thing he says. He would shill anything for a bag of skittles.
I got nothing for the Vava chroma. I took no money from anyone. It was in its kickstarter stage and I flat out said it had issues but they promised to fix them. Not sure what else I was expected to do. It was early in the ultra short throw era.

A friend recently bought the Hisense 100U76 for $1800. It destroys his Sony 4K projector at every aspect of picture quality (except size) and the mini LED direct display is 60% cheaper than the projector.He has now listed his Sony projector for sale since he no longer needs it anymore. I myself rarely use my JVC 4K projector in favor of my 77S90C. I mean no offense but $3500 for the PX3 (not including a screen, sound system, interconnects, installation, etc.) is absurd. Anyone who buys that instead of a 100" TCL or Hisense direct display for under $2000 is an absolute fool.
We see the weight loss bro 👏🏽 Keep grinding!!
Thanks! 😊
true
Keep up the good work bro, with these reviews and your health.💯
The firmware mystery is so strange. I've gotten 3-4 OTA firmware updates since I got the PX3 and I've heard that so many people are stuck on the June firmware.
Very strange. I spent at least 3 hours fighting with it before giving up. At least we know it’s capable.
I just finished watching your ultra short wrap up (I purposely waited until I was done with this video) Great job as usual!!
@@ChrisMajesticPlease let us know if the 3D improves. 🤙
Love BOTH of your channels and it is cool to see the cross commenting from one to the other in the community.

Chris can you do a video on the Hisense PX3-Pro vs the Formovie Projector Premium and which one would you purchase.
Bro im so glad to see you doing a review honestly your the Marcus Brownlee of projectors please do more.
Great review again. Nice and unbiased. I’m hoping you’ll get one of the Valerion projectors to review as they seem to be getting good reviews. Be nice to hear your opinion on them.
Wonderful review. I never gave "Hisense" a chance. I'm now excited about that company. Thank you Mr. Majestic!
Hey man great review, you look great !! keep it up with that weight loss !
Got the PX3 PRO for e few day´s now here in Europe.
The International Version does not run on Google Tv but instead on Hisense own Vidaa Software.
I had the Formovie Theater before but this PX3 Pro blows it out of the Water.
The only thing that they could add in the menu is a Focus Reset.
more then happy with it 🤘🤘🤘
I just got the Hisense U76 100 inch. It’s really as big as i need it to be for a basic family room tv
I'm going ust no eye damage by direct lit led or oled panels
At the current savings, would it be worth getting the px2 pro? Or, is the extra money worth it?
Chris great video. Like the weight loss. I bought the PX1 Pro on your video three years ago. Is the PX3 Pro worth the upgrade?
Thank you for the all the in depth info!! Would you prefer this over the AWOL 3500? I am also looking to use the projector mounted on my deck. So also some daytime use.
It’s tough. In a very bright room you might like the awol better during the day but the Hisense wins any other time.
Thanks for the video man! Awsome review!
Will you review the new Premiere 9 by Samsung?
I’m planning on it
We miss you ❤ my favourite reviewer ever
Thank you for the great review. I appreciate the shot of the 3D performance and your comments on that aspect especially!
Can you please do a video on the best ALR screen 🙏
I always enjoy your content Chris - Thanks! - Cheers!
150 inch screen I'll take that over a 100inch tv any day. Can't wait to see your vidoe on the projector shoot out.
Excellent reviews as always! How much of an improvement would the PX3 be over an Epson 5050UB?
Px3-pro has drastically better clarity. Better hdr support. Better interface. Inferior brightness. Inferior blacks.
Thank you for the video! I feel like what's missing - and maybe I'm weird about this - is a video on reliability among manufacturers. So contacting retailers and getting information on fault-rate.

Thank you for the input lag chart I love living room gaming and I love fighting games every button press counts. Best A/V reviews on TH-cam!
Interesting to see TUBI as a button option on the remote, shows how well that app is doing!
Good point
Thanks for the review. Since you tried both, which one would you choose between hisense px3 pro and valerian visionmaster max?

is it true that it doesn't support frame packed 3D (blu-ray)?
This is still 4K at 60hz so it's not worth it. CES 2025 will showcase the new laser projectors that are real 4K at 120hz.
Consoles which is the most used gaming support on these projectors, cant do 4k 120. So 1080 120 is perfect, and i played on it its amazing.
120hz is incredibly unimportant. Don’t believe the marketing
@@johnf4680 We're in 2024, and you're still trying to prove this ?
Thats why everyone has now 120hz tv's at home, 120/240/360 even 480hz pc monitors , and 240hz Projectors yeah sure its "Unimportant" 🤣
How high does the screen need to be from the floor?
Great review! Will you be switching projectors from the Awol?
Thanks for your reviews Chris!

I’ve been waiting for your review on this. Are we confirming there is no 4k 120 hz for game mode? You can only get 1080p 120hz?
Chris can I ask if I would get ALLM and 120/240 fps if I pair the Hisense PX3 Pro with my PLAYSTATION5 Pro console (the newly launched pro version is what I have). Also does this have a theatre/cinema mode where true 24fps for movies can be seen without the television effect (also known on some models as the Directors mode or Theatre mode). And does it support Dolby Vision content though the Apple TV 4K (latest generation). Thank you.
I was able to get it to work at 1080@120/240 so I assume as long as it’s at one of those it should work.
Keep working on your health bro. Looking amazing sir. 💪🏿✊🏿🙏🏿
Australia got shafted on this model. We got the non-pro version with no 3D, Vidaa OS instead of Google TV and 200 lumens dimmer.
We are always get screwed with tec
@chris Can you share the best 150” inch ALR screen for this one
Very nice!! Thank you for the review!!
How does this stack up to the awol 3000 pro?
So tempted to buy. I have numerous oleds, 55 and 65s and I really want to risk and buy one of these bad boys :)😊

Excellent review thank you
Nice that you're back Chris! I can't wait to watch your review of the new Formovie Theater Premium 2024 and how it does against the Hisense PX3 Pro
Hisense Px3 pro vs Formovie theatre?
Team 3D in the house.
Good review. Thanks.
I need a kinda cheap one just for my room cuz I can't afford a tv. what do you recommend
Does it do a decent job of turning any content into 3D or does it have to be 3D specific content?
Has to be 3d content
@ChrisMajestic 💔 my old Samsung TV can do a decent job at 3D'ing anything so hopefully someday UST's can do the same. I hope you review the Formovie Premium soon!
Any chance of you doing a review on the Xgimi Aura 2?
Thanks for this review! Couple of quick questions. What size projection is your set up - 120"? Also, what's the minimum ceiling height to project a 120" image using a standard TV bench?
Poked around and see you’re using a 100” screen. 😅
I’d recommend at least 9ft ceilings for a 120 inch screen unless you plan on putting the projector super low.
Love your reviews bro! Wondering if it is worth the upgrade from the Formovie Theatre (usually watch HDR in dark room)
Great review Chris, as always.!! 🎉
Please may I ask does anyone know if this projector, or similar, have 'Digital Zoom' so the Image can be 'Zoomed In/Enlarged' using the Remote??

@@ChrisMajestic Thanks Chris. I've decided to go with the hisense and the 132" awol screen
Another great video! Cmon HiSense! Send him that firmware update already! lol. Great review!
Thanks for mentioning the 3D performance, as so many reviewers leave this aspect of projectors out.
If I can get the px2 pro for $2k vs the $3500 for the px3 pro.. which do you recommend? Is the px3 pro really $1500 better?
Yessssssss
Definitely worth it
I'm stuck on the Hisense PX3 Pro & the Nexigo Aurora Pro Ultra. I do occasionally game with the PS5.
This is for my basement family room that is blacked out.
How does the Hisense PX-3 Pro compare to AWOL LTV-3500??
Px3-pro has better contrast, it’s sharper, and has better hdr. But the awol is brighter with both sdr and hdr.
Hisense XP3 PRO or Epson 5050 UB?
Black Excellence!!! @ it’s finest!!! Keep the videos coming
If there would be no rainbow effect this would be a good option for me. But i still prefer a lot more LCD projectors than this DLP's because they don't have a rainbow effect.
With the advancement in projector tech, movie theatres will need to come up with a different strategy.
Eventually I think video walls will takeover but they are very cost prohibitive
Excellent review... Linky no worky...
Thanks! Fixed

😂😂
is Google TV on this projector? i thought it was running its own OS being Vidaa?
No 3d , no native 4K DLP hell no for this projector
