Last time I had a breaking article mentioned that this year's 618 is a projector worth buying, the result of the review divided into two camps of debate, one of the netizens said that the current TV is getting cheaper and cheaper, the picture quality is also projection, so home projection should withdraw from the historical stage.
I don't agree with this view, I think projection does have the benefits of projection, such as wanting to experience the big screen in the room, I can't install a 100-inch TV in it, the strong light is dazzling, it is easy to touch when passing the end of the bed, it is more dangerous to have bear children at home, and for example, when I go out camping, your 100-inch screen car can't be put down, I can take a curtain to roll it up casually. My family bought a 65-inch TV before, and now let me throw it and buy a 100-inch TV is reluctant, and I also reserved an electric curtain slot before, so I will choose the TV on the wall, and then add a better projection and match my set of 5.1-channel Huiwei D3.2MKiii to watch movies with a sense of ritual, and I haven't seen a few home theaters that use LCD screens.
Now the projector industry is also getting more and more volume, not long ago nut Jimi engaged in a wave of online quarrel event marketing, let Weibo the whole live broadcast, I have always been little interested in this kind of hype, I this time fancy Huawei Mall sales number one projection brand Xiying, recently released crowdfunding flagship new product H9 MAX, retail price 3799, crowdfunding to hand price is only 1759, equipped with a 5-inch LCD screen, closed LED light machine, the whole machine up to 2600 ANSI lumens, support 16.77 million colors, the overall configuration can be comparable to 4 or 5 thousand level machines.
Product appearance
Unlike traditional projectors, the appearance of the H9 MAX retains the square design of commercial projectors, while adding the stylish and versatile elements of home projectors, so it should be a projection that can be used both for business and at home.
The lens is equipped with a lens cap, which I usually do not use or when the Bluetooth speaker is used to prevent dust from sticking to the lens and affecting the effect.
The front of the fuselage uses a bright mirror design, and both sides are all scattered holes, because the projection work due to the high brightness of the light will produce a lot of heat, the heat dissipation area must be large enough to ensure the lens and the electronic components inside longer service life.
The top of the fuselage is also a bright mirror design, and touch buttons such as the switch button, Bluetooth speaker mode, return and confirm buttons are placed on the top, which is convenient for operation when the remote control is not nearby.
The front panel of Xiying H9 Max is actually very good, the first equipped with a floating screen, which can make the sense of technology full, and there are more practical functions, such as supporting weather, calendar, time display, at a glance, like a smart home assistant.
When using H9 MAX as a Bluetooth speaker, this secondary screen can actually display rhythmic lyrics, adding a bit of dynamism to the music, and this small design must be praised.
The back of the fuselage uses a vertical stripe design to make the machine look more coordinated and stylish. The most eye-catching is the 98mm woofer printed with the English brand name of Xiying, and the two small squares next to it are two 8W tweeters, which together form a 2.1-channel, and the overall sound effect is much better than that of TV.
At the top are various interfaces, including 1 HDMI, 2 USB, 1 AV frequency input, and 1 3.5mm audio output can be input to better audio equipment at home.
At the bottom is a hidden zinc alloy off-axis bracket, which is not obscured when placed on the table.
Technical content
● Expensive 4K lanthanide optical lens, even during the day
Xiying H9 MAX is a 4K lanthanide optical lens made of rare earth lanthanum optical glass, which not only has a higher refractive index, but also has a good control of dispersion, and can effectively avoid the "thermal virtual focus" problem that may be caused by traditional resin lenses or glass + resin lenses, and the color rendering effect of the picture is indeed great during actual use.
● Terrifying 5-inch LCD screen, better picture quality
It is said that the bottom level crushes people, and it is also applicable in the field of projection. The H9 MA uses a high-transmittance 5-inch screen that supports up to 2600 ANSI equivalent lumens, which can be viewed clearly even in daytime scenes, and even when taken outdoors for camping, the H9 MAX can also hold.
Enclosed light machine, less noise
When we buy a projector, we must look at whether it is a closed light machine, on the one hand, it can prevent dust from entering the LCD screen inside to affect the picture quality will also affect the life of the light, and Xiying H9 MAX uses an innovative closed optical machine intelligent temperature control system, and with a zero-resistance heat dissipation path efficient heat dissipation while the noise decibel is less than 28dB, and my sister-in-law's Epson 5700TW noise ratio is simply different.
System experience
H9 MAX after booting will automatically carry out keystone correction and focusing, measured about 5s can complete the entire adjustment process, the whole adjustment process is relatively fast, because H9 MAX built-in gyroscope, mobile projector will trigger and autofocus, personal feeling is more sensitive, so the trigger frequency is higher, in order to prevent accidental projection frequent triggering recommended adjustment after the adjustment is completed, you can also install the projection fixed.
A projector can not do its automatic adjustment of the picture function is very key, Xiying H9 MAX built-in a number of sensors, with AI algorithms, after booting or when moving the machine, it can achieve automatic square + clear picture through autofocus + automatic keystone correction, for the elderly who will not adjust can also easily get started.
Xiying uses Android system, the main interface is almost the same as the smart TV we use, the desktop is very concise, the first row is intelligently recommended according to user habits, users can also customize the desktop suitable for their own operation, unlike some domestic brands in order to facilitate advertising implantation forced users to use their desktop, of course, Xiying supports the use of U disk to install Android software.
The control can be through the Bluetooth remote control, after upgrading the Harmony system can be operated by mobile phone, because it is a Bluetooth remote control, so there is no need to align the machine when using, and it can also be controlled by voice like a TV, which is very convenient to operate.
Audio and video resources
Xiying's built-in media resources are very rich, in addition to built-in resources, you can also install Youku, iQiyi and other APP to expand the resource library, I only opened a Youku member, usually my videos are placed in my pole space, so I will use a U disk to install a pole space separately, the experience effect is really great.
The elderly at home may not be interested in these network audio and video resources, and there is no need to worry at this time, the software that comes with the resource library can watch TV channels, and it is extremely convenient to watch news broadcasts.
In addition to directly using the system's built-in resource library, Xiying H9 MAX also supports wireless screen projection and external hard disk viewing, and you can scan the code to cast the screen of video and audio.
Take the Apple 11 I am using as an example, using the built-in Green Hummingbird screen projection, you can project music, photos and videos in the phone, and the Android mirroring function can also project the mobile phone screen directly, there is almost no delay when measuring the use, the key is that there are no ads.
Drop shadow effect
Thanks to its 5-inch LCD screen, with native 1080P and brightness up to 2600ANSI lumens, it can bring a good audio and video experience, and share with you a few pictures using Qian Yuankai's 4K resolution test chart, the overall effect is quite good from the screen.
Because the download on the polar space is a 4K original movie, in order to better decode I like to add Apple's player in front, the 4K video is finally played in 1080P resolution after hard decoding, and from the playback effect, the details on the face are also clearly visible when the character is close-up.
When watching the movie "Transformers 4", the visual perception brought by the giant screen is impossible to experience on ordinary TVs, and the footage of Bumblebee and Optimus Prime falling down, when watching it again, still sweated for them, and you can experience a cinema-level viewing effect with the H9 MAX in the guest room at home.
Through Youku's TV picture, we can more realistically feel the image processing engine's optimization effect on the color, sharpness and clarity of the picture, whether it is the skin color of the character or the color of the clothes are ideal.
In terms of sound, it has the blessing of a 98mm woofer, which is shocking when watching blockbuster movies. Generally, the projection on the market uses full-range speakers, and the sound effect is very unsatisfactory, but Xiying can give 2.1 sound configuration, which shows the brand's intentions.
Write at the end
I remember 7 years ago, when a self-media friend got a Jimi projector, he exclaimed at home repeatedly, this TV manufacturer is going out of business, this projection is too good, too convenient, more than two thousand yuan, how big as you want, you can also watch live TV, now the TV is still alive, but the large screen is getting cheaper and cheaper, 85-inch large TV is less than 4,000 yuan, the price of projection is also quite involuted, like the Xiying H9 MAX crowdtest price in my hand is less than 2,000 yuan, and the configuration given is benchmarked before 4. With a price of 5,000 projections and a lot of innovative designs, I think it's worth buying one for the 618 this year, and you can even have one in each room like me, so that everyone can watch TV without interfering with each other.
