what factor make superior image quality to your opinion a formovie S5 (0.23) over wemax dice (0.33)? Does alpd make better quality over led although lower range chip?
I have a Nebula Capsule 3 with DMD 0.23. In my opinion, the image detail is good. It's HD, but really just a little softer. The size of the module allows you to create a small, portable projector. Something for something.
WEMAX Go DMD 0.47 Brightness 300 lm Contrast 500:1 Formovie P1 DMD 0.23 Brightness 800 lm Contrast 600:1 One will be brighter and more contrasting, and the other will be clearer, resulting in a more detailed image, right? They look absolutely identical, except for the color, the data was taken from the manufacturer’s websites. Which to choose?
Hi! I wanna ask, do you have any recommended projector for under RM2K. Much prefer local stock in Msia. Is Xiaomi Compact Projector a good choice now? Thanks.
No great 1080p DLP projector below RM2K. Xiaomi gen 1 is great. Forget about gen 2. Put more budget and get WEMAX Dice locally @ bit.ly/3NszElU If you don't need Netflix, go for XGIMI Elfin.
Great explanation , now its more clear to me. It would be nice if you put what DMD projertors use in your chart, don´t you think, or that chart is already covered it by another item?
Does the Formovie S5 have a sharper image than the Touyinger H6? I bought the Formovie S5 and it will arrive next week for me... Will I feel a lot of difference in the image or does the Touyinger H6 have better resolution? Are the pixels on the Formovie S5 more apparent?
Por favor me indica qual escolher até 600$ gostaria que tivesse uma qualidade razoável para usar em ambiente com luz (sala de aula) nada perfeito como os de lâmpada, mais que fosse ali quase semelhante, pensei no formovie s5 acha que atende a minha demanda?
Oi Jayce, ótimo vídeo que explica muito bem as diferenças entre eles. No meu formovie S5 eu não consigo acessar a opção de MEMC, ela não parece nas opções avançadas. Sabe dizer oque pode estar acontecendo?
Hi! I was thinking of getting a projector screen for the halo plus. I have concern about using keystone and how it might affect the brightness of the screen when using at an angle (my projector is against the right wall and projecting screen against right wall for 80 in screen). My viewing angle is really small as the projector light is emitting almost right next to my head (to my right). Would it be better to get grey screen or something else for better picture quality compared to projecting on my white wall? (Mainly deeper blacks)
Hello! Would you know the exact model of the DMD chip used in the Xiaomi Mi Smart Compact 2? I need to change the chip and I need the model to make the purchase. Thanks!
Hi, When sitting at distance 2.5 meter watching a 100 inch screen will 0.23 and 0.47 having much noticeable difference in term of sharpness? Thank you.
In short, I wanted to know how good it is compared to other devices in your top chart. It costs the same as Mogo 2 Pro, but it has much better characteristics. P.S. I am looking for my first projector for regular use instead of TV because I often move from place to place.
I have a Formovie S5, it is showing white dots on the screen, I think I need to change the chip, do you know how I can fix it? Where can I buy the part? Any website...
Very helpful video. I was trying to get a handle on what kind of sharpness to expect from the 0.23" DMD. It seems like it is closer to 1080p than the 0.47" 1080p shifters are to 4k in terms of resolvable detail.
Hi Jayce, very good video. Can you do a comparison between projectors with DMD 0.47" with average price 200-500$ and between 500-1000$? I think that many of us will glad to see it. thanks
@@desmo340 Wanbo X5 is 1080p LCD. Overall, native 1080p DMD is better. Period. Budget 1080p 1LCD projectors' optical performance differ on their lens and design. You can see their performance in the 'Text & Corner Sharpness' on all my reviews.
Awesome comparison. DMD chip size is a common unnoticed spec on DLP projectors. I recently bought a DLP projector (Z7x) after using a LCD model for a long time, and the first thing that I noticed was a rapidly shimmering one dark images, mainly one close range. I think we can see on your recording here too, little dots dancing on dark background. Can you confirmed that this is a common artifact on this type of projectors ?
This dmd technology is so dam impressive. But I got two dlp DMD projectors now, and on both after two years I got dead pixels / mirrors on it. (Xgimi cc aurora and viewsonic m2) And now I'm not trust this technology any more. There is no relaxing watching stuff when your eyes always search for dead pixels.... Cause of this I got a 3lcd Epson for my livingroom and a 1lcd China projector for the bedroom. And they both now 3 years old and no problems on it.
@@adrienbnnr not sure about that. EF-11 is 2x brighter, has accurate and stunning colors, low input lag, really fluid(unlike S5), crisp image(sometimes you think it is a 4k or at least higher than just FullHD). Dowside so far is the sound which is really weak and black levels aren't good(need a good screen to get better results on this aspect). Ef-12 has perfect sound but input lag is not good, so Ef-11 is the choice for gamers.
@@andrevideosgera I only own the S5 (and I'm not 100% satisfied) but from all the comparisons video I watched, S5 is overall better. About colors, you can't put in front "stunning colors" as it is eye catching yeah, but low fidelity to the original signal... 2 times brighter, I doubt about that, the S5 is quite bright and we have to compare both calibrated. Also S5 input lag is about 50ms which is acceptable. For 500 bucks, that is fair imo
Unusually unsharp look of S5's picture. As to testing, father than 2.m75 there no noticeable picture difference between these models but Wemax, light dissipation on screen produces much more blur than mattrice size difference & pixel shifting.
@@jayceooi But native (not shifted) resolution below 3K has noticeable pixelation perceived as a "sand" on screen. S5 with its 2D shifting doesn't have these issues.
Great review!
Is there any compact projector on the market (size like the Formovie S5) that uses .47" DMD?
No. Slight bigger one has - s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DCt532R

Great video! the DMD size makes all diference, and that shows how magic is the pixel shifting techonology. Thx for sharing.

dlp230np max brighness 400 lumens, formovie s5 specs 1100, your measurements 580, will this overcook the max 400 lumen capacity of dmd chip?
As long as the heatsink is working effectively, it is fine.
excellent review as always,am between two projectors that you have already reviewed,which would be better tuhundeal 97 or xidu s1 ?

Since TI does silent revision of these chips, any difference between old .23, .33, .47 vs new ones?
No idea...

Press menu button on remote control in HDMI mode.
Is it native 1080p?(s5)
Good for movies?
Please check the S5 review. @@ryzekm84
Always love from Bangladesh❤
Iam using xgimi z3(old model ).
I think that should be changed.
Will the formovie s5 be good?
Native resolution is1080p correct?
Yes. Yes.
That's quality content right there. 👌🏻
Glad to know that!
Purple tint is a much bigger issue, from my point of view, than the lack of sharpness on the smaller chip.
Great video Jayce!, One question:
Pixel shiting impacts the life of the DMD chip?
Thanks. I don't think so.
Hi! I was thinking of getting a projector screen for the halo plus. I have concern about using keystone and how it might affect the brightness of the screen when using at an angle (my projector is against the right wall and projecting screen against right wall for 80 in screen). My viewing angle is really small as the projector light is emitting almost right next to my head (to my right). Would it be better to get grey screen or something else for better picture quality compared to projecting on my white wall? (Mainly deeper blacks)
White wall will do if you are using keystone correction. Anti-light grey screen won't perform so well if enabled that.
Hello! Would you know the exact model of the DMD chip used in the Xiaomi Mi Smart Compact 2? I need to change the chip and I need the model to make the purchase. Thanks!
Sorry, nope. But should using the same 0.23" DMD like S5.

Hi, how about 0.33 vs 0.47 dmd both at 1080p? Will the difference obvious sitting when at distance 2.5m far🤔
@@StudioHorizonsArt Better than 0.23. You won't notice much unless look very carefully.
Thanks for sharing the knowledge!
I'm loving my wemax dice but feel it's not as sharp as my previous wewatch v50
I think this clarified my doubt.
Hello. Do you plan to review the projector Xgimi Elfin in the near future? :)
Nope. What do you want to know?
In short, I wanted to know how good it is compared to other devices in your top chart. It costs the same as Mogo 2 Pro, but it has much better characteristics.
P.S. I am looking for my first projector for regular use instead of TV because I often move from place to place.
@@MarkTentacle Overall, Elfin is better than MoGo 2 Pro.
MoGo 2 Pro has better colour calibration and OS out of the box.

Replace DLP chipsets. No idea where to buy, sorry...
Would you happen to know the DMD size of the Wimius P64 and the Dangbei N2? I searched online but unable to locate the info.
They are 1LCD. Not DMD.

You definetly forgot to refocus S5 in 10 minutes after power on. It's must to do.

Could You retest this setup on 2.8+ meters viewing distance ? (which is the real home usage scenario). Then this test will be really useful.
@@madcalm2024 Near or far. The results are the same. Bigger DMD size is always better.
