If you want a projector for presentations, business, and streaming movies without paying 4K prices, this is the deal I recommend grabbing right now.
Super-bright compared to similarly priced models, the Xgimi Horizon is now $529 (was $899) at Wellbots — a $370 saving on a 1080p Android TV projector with built-in Harman Kardon sound.
Brightness is where this model earns its keep: 2200 ANSI lumens is well above what budget projectors in this range typically offer. That ANSI-lumen brightness (a more rigorous measurement than the inflated "LED lumens" figures some cheaper projectors use) is important. That gives it good use for business and presentations, since the picture holds up reasonably well even with some ambient light in the room, not just in a fully dark home theater setup.
Today's top Xgimi projector deal
One thing worth clearing up first: despite some marketing copy floating around describing this as a 4K projector, the Horizon's native resolution is 1920 x 1080 — this is Xgimi's entry-level Horizon, not the 4K "Horizon Pro" that sits above it in the line-up. If you specifically need native 4K, this isn't that projector. But for presenting or streaming Full HD content, 1080p from a bright, well-built projector at this price is a genuinely great deal.
The built-in Harman Kardon speaker setup is a real convenience feature — two 8W drivers with Dolby Audio and DTS-HD support mean you don't need a soundbar or external speakers just to get a watchable experience out of the box.
The setup features are also worth calling out: auto focus, auto keystone correction, and intelligent screen alignment handle the fiddly parts of projector setup automatically, and obstacle avoidance helps the image adjust around furniture in the frame rather than requiring a perfectly clear wall.
One honest caveat beyond the resolution: Our own testing of the pricier Horizon Pro found that if you're mostly watching Full HD content rather than 4K, the standard non-Pro Horizon is actually the smarter buy — which lines up well with what this deal is offering. Just don't expect the sharper 4K detail of Xgimi's higher-end models at this price.
For a bright, well-connected 1080p smart projector with genuinely good built-in sound, the Xgimi Horizon at $529 is a smart buy. And for other top-performing picks, see our guide to the best portable projectors.
