A new 4K projector with the ‘world’s first 3-in-1 optical system’ is now available — and it can remember your walls

  • The JMGO N3 Ultimate is available to order, with an early price of $2,399 (about £1,777 / AU$3,354)
  • 4K, Dolby Vision HDR and up to 5,800 ISO lumens
  • Triple-laser system with emphasis on optical adjustment

JMGO's new 4K projector comes with what the brand says is the "world's first" 3-in-1 integrated optical system. The N3 Ultimate combines four-way lens shift, wide range optical zoom and a smart gimbal in a single system that promises better visual performance even when projector placement isn't perfect.

The N3 Ultimate is bright, too, with an output of up to 5,800 ISO lumens. That's exceptionally bright, and more than double the brightness of our current favorite home theater projector, the Epson Pro Cinema LS9000.

As we've come to expect from the brand there's a big discount for early bird buyers. The full price is $2,999 (about £2,222 / AU$4,192), but until 13 May 2026 that's discounted to $2,399 (about £1,777 / AU$3,354).

JMGO N3 Ultimate: key features

"Almost every projector ends up being placed off-center" in real-world use, JMGO says, and as a result the N3 Ultimate has been designed to prioritize optical adjustment rather than digital keystone correction in order to deliver the highest possible resolution and brightness.

The N3 Ultimate also has a memory function that enables you to recall different settings for different walls: the preferred screen size, the image optimization settings and the appropriate app. Switching is a one-click process.

The projector is powered by JMGO's MALC 5.0 triple laser, which has 5,800 ISO lumen output, a color accuracy delta-E of just 0.7 (meaning it's essentially perfect to the human eye) and 110% coverage of the BT.2020 color gamut. There's 4K resolution, Dolby Vision HDR, and the projector also supports Dolby Audio.

For gamers and sports fans there's a low latency of 1ms and a refresh rate of up to 240Hz with support for variable refresh rate.

It's an impressive spec, but the N3 Ultimate is up against some fierce rivals including our current budget pick of the best projectors, the BenQ GP520. It too delivers 4K, and while it delivers around half the brightness of the N3 Ultimate, it's also less than half the price.
