Xgimi Halo actually performed well in the tests. But now the display has been reviewed again. Thanks to the small stand, projecting onto walls, ceilings or screens is easier, as was the case with our colleague’s test Poppy Seed Tim show up.
While previous tests focused mainly on Android integration and brightness quality features, positive software development and good integration in daily life, the system now has to prove itself in the gaming environment. Because using games is of course really fun when you can cast the picture on a big screen.
