Ultra short throw projectors like the XGIMI Aura were a major breakthrough in late 2020 when Samsung launched their Premier range to seriously mix up the internet’s best projectors for gaming lists. This was a gamechanger for projection: a huge 4K picture just inches from the surface. Other leading projector brands have been releasing competitors in the 18 months since and there’s now a strong field to choose from. XGIMI’s Aura unit is at the cheaper end of the best 4K projector spectrum and is a great ultra-short-throw projector that shows how revolutionary these new units are, but also some of the minor limitations of the technology currently.
