Description

3500 ANSI lumens for a big picture without total darkness

Brightness is measured with the ANSI method, so 3500 is comparable with other projectors' ANSI figures, not with LED lumens. This level leaves a reserve even for a large picture of over 100 inches, because a bigger surface needs more light. In a dim living room or in the evening the picture stays vivid; in full sunlight any projected image fades, so curtains add contrast.

A 0.9:1–1.5:1 throw ratio for flexible placement

A throw ratio range means the picture can be made considerably larger or smaller from the same distance. Image width is roughly the distance divided by the throw ratio: from three metres it is about 2.0–3.3 m wide, a 16:9 diagonal of roughly 90–150″. A 0.9:1 ratio gives a very large picture even from a short distance, which helps in a smaller room.

4K UHD resolution

3840 × 2160 pixels is about 8.3 million dots, four times as many as Full HD. On a very large picture this matters, because at lower resolution individual pixels become visible up close. Anker lists 4K UHD as the maximum resolution; whether the image is formed natively or with pixel shifting is not specified in the manufacturer data.

5000:1 contrast for detail in dark frames

Contrast describes the ratio between the brightest white and the darkest black. 5000:1 means night scenes, shadows and dark film frames keep their detail, especially in a darkened room where ambient light does not wash out the black. The more light falls on the projection surface, the lower the real contrast, so darkening the room does the most for the picture.

Built-in Wi-Fi

The X1 Pro joins your home network over built-in Wi-Fi, which makes connecting easy without running a cable. The manufacturer data does not name a smart platform, apps, input ports or speakers, so plan your content sources and sound before use. The black housing is less noticeable in a darkened room and suits the darker interior of a home cinema.

Who this projector is for

The Nebula X1 Pro suits people who want a very large 4K UHD picture and need flexibility in placement, since the 0.9:1–1.5:1 throw ratio lets the image fit both smaller and larger rooms. 3500 ANSI lumens give a brightness reserve for a big surface, and 5000:1 contrast keeps dark frames detailed. Plan sound and content sources separately, as the manufacturer data does not list them.

Questions & answers

Is the Nebula X1 Pro a native 4K projector?

The manufacturer data lists 4K UHD (3840 × 2160) as the maximum resolution. Native resolution is not stated separately.

How big is the picture from 3 metres?

With a 0.9:1–1.5:1 throw ratio the image is roughly 2.0–3.3 m wide, which for 16:9 corresponds to a diagonal of about 90–150″.

Can I use the projector in a bright room?

3500 ANSI lumens is high brightness, enough for a dim or partly lit room. In sunlight any projected image fades, so curtains help.

Does the projector have Wi-Fi?

Yes, according to the manufacturer data Wi-Fi is built in.
