Form factorBasic form of the projector, in this order: if it sits right in front of the wall as an ultra-short-throw unit, it is a laser TV. If it has a built-in battery, it is mini & portable – even with a stand. A swivel stand or gimbal without a battery means compact with swivel stand. Everything else is classic, for table or ceiling.

Verdict
Pros & cons
Der Nebula P1 ist ein mobiler Full-HD-Beamer mit Schwenk-Ständer, der nur im abgedunkelten Raum überzeugt. Im Filmmodus kommen lediglich 240 bis 300 lm statt 650 ANSI-Lumen an, Schwarz wirkt grau. Dafür liefern die abnehmbaren Boxen echtes Stereo, Google TV mit Netflix läuft ohne Stick. Der Haken: kein eingebauter Akku, ohne Steckdose oder 100-W-Powerbank bleibt die Wand leer.
Pros
- Abnehmbare 10-W-Boxen spielen neben der Leinwand echtes Stereo, bis 20 h Akku
- Sehr geringer Input Lag von 9 bis 10 ms im Modus Spiel Extrem
- Google TV mit offizieller Netflix-App, Disney+ und Prime Video
- Autofokus und Trapezkorrektur stellen das Bild in Sekunden scharf
- Natürliche Farben im Filmmodus, Bild fein kalibrierbar
- HDMI 2.1 mit eARC für Soundbar oder Konsole
Cons
- Im Filmmodus nur 240 bis 300 lm statt versprochener 650 ANSI-Lumen
- Kein eingebauter Akku, unterwegs nur mit 100-W-Powerbank nutzbar
- Nativer Kontrast 400:1, dunkle Szenen wirken grau
- Standby im Schnellstart-Modus rund 15,5 W statt 0,5 W
- Schwacher Bass, bei voller Lautstärke stellenweise matschig
Der XGIMI Horizon 20 Pro ist ein heller 4K-Laserbeamer fürs Wohnzimmer, der auch bei Restlicht trägt und dank Zoom und Lens Shift nicht mittig stehen muss. Statt 4.100 liefert er ab Werk rund 2.800 Lumen, für Tageslicht reicht das. Der Haken ist der erhöhte Schwarzwert: Dunkle Filmszenen bekommen einen bläulichen Schleier. Für ein dunkles Heimkino ist er nicht die erste Wahl.
Pros
- Rund 2.800 ANSI-Lumen ab Werk, mit Luminanz-Boost gut 3.500 Lumen
- Optischer Zoom 1,2 bis 1,5:1 und Lens Shift bis 120 % vertikal
- Google TV mit offizieller Netflix-App, dazu Chromecast
- Mit Super Frame bei 120 Hz praktisch kein Input Lag
- Farbstark mit 85 bis 92 % DCI-P3
- Laserquelle mit 20.000 Stunden, ohne Lampenwechsel
Cons
- Erhöhter Schwarzwert, Kontrast nur rund 1.250 bis 1.400:1
- Beworbene 4.100 Lumen erreicht nur der grünstichige High-Power-Modus
- Geringer Input Lag nur in Full HD, 4K höchstens 60 Hz
- Projektor-Menüs schlecht erklärt, Zoom und Lens Shift erst nach Einrichtung
- Regenbogeneffekt und Laser-Speckle auf Kontrastleinwänden sichtbar
