Dangbei Mars Pro, XGIMI Aura, and VAVA Chroma are both 4K laser projectors, but they have different prices and specifications. What are the differences between them? Which is a better choice for home use?
From the side-by-side parameter table above, we can clearly see their differences. Let’s look through the pros and cons of the three laser projectors. The pros and cons below are just concluded according to the comparative analysis among the three 4K projectors.
Dangbei Mars Pro
Pros:
- Lower Cost
- Higher Brightness
- Bigger Image Size
- More Portable
- Larger Memory
- Lower Noise
Cons:
- Bigger Throw Ratio
- Shorter Lamp Life
Among the three 4K projectors, Dangbei Mars Pro is the cheapest, but its image brightness is the brightest. If a projector is bright enough, it can still project a clear image even during the daytime without closing the curtain. However, if a projector is poor in brightness, the projector can’t project a clear image under ambient light.
In addition, Dangbei Mars Pro can project at most 300 inches, providing an immersive viewing experience. Compared with the other two projectors, Dangbei Mars Pro has a smaller size and low weight. The projector has a large memory of 4G RAM+ 128G ROM, which is superior to most 4K projectors on the market.
XGIMI AURA
Pros
- Lower Cost
- Ultra-Short Throw
- Longer Lamp Life
- More HDMI Interfaces
Cons
- Big & Heavy
- Bigger Noise
XGIMI AURA is an Ultra Short Throw projector, which can project 120 inches within 11.7 inches. In addition, the projector adopts laser as the light source with a longer lamp life of 25,000 hours. XGIMI AURA is equipped with 3 HDMI interfaces, enabling more input options.
Compared with Dangbei Mars Pro, the brightness of XGIMI Aura is not so good, and the size is bulkier. The RAM of XGIMI Aura is also relatively smaller compared with the other two projectors.
VAVA Chroma
Pros
- Ultra-Short Throw
- Longer Lamp Life
- More HDMI Interfaces
Cons
- Higher Cost
- Bigger Noise
VAVA Chroma is the most expensive one among the three projectors. Just like XGIMI Aura, VAVA Chroma is also an Ultra-short throw projector, which projects a big screen within a short distance.
The projector has a long lamp life of 25,000 hours and 3 HDMI interfaces. Compared with the other two projectors, VAVA Chroma has the biggest size and heaviest weight. It emits bigger noise compared with Dangbei Mars Pro.
Conclusion
Dangbei Mars Pro is the most cost-efficient 4K laser projector among the three projectors, which performs well in terms of image brightness, portability, quiet operation, and memory. VAVA Chroma and XGIMI AURA perform well in terms of Ultra Short Throw and lamp life.
