Flagged as a product to avoid

1 of 9 research runs entered this as a product to avoid rather than a pick.

The Smart Home Hookup's tested comparison found the AWOL Aetherion Max better in every way - brighter, better contrast, motorized iris, more effective dynamic laser dimming. It is coasting on last generation's reputation; buyers cross-shopping ultra-short-throw units should get the AWOL Vision Aetherion Pro line instead.

Now, would I recommend the Highense PX3 Pro? Well, yes, I would absolutely recommend this if you have not used something like the L9 or similar already. You could already tell it was a good experience for me and it is a great experience for firsttime laser projector viewers or users

The Hisense PX3-Pro proved to be a gaming-focused projector that could also stretch its talents to make it an excellent option for movies. It's brighter, sharper, and handles contrast better than its smaller sibling, the PL2, and it also supports 4K gaming at up to 120Hz.

The top of its class PX3 PRO Laser TV is the ultimate way to watch TV and play games on 120 inch plus screen sizes, And the C2 ULTRA offers all of the picture quality and features but in a super versatile package that offers the biggest zoom range we have ever seen! Both units offer the unmatched triple laser (RGB) system giving them a huge 110% DCI-P3 colour space. In short they look fantastic.

So when is the extra cost for the PX3-Pro worth it? Especially then, if you want maximum image brightness and HDR performance or a very bright location. The PX3-Pro delivers the ultimate in brightness and can therefore offer an even more intense image, especially with demanding HDR content.
