I’ve tested a lot of projectors, and JMGO makes some really special models. The JMGO N1S Pro is a newer option that really shines. It offers a number of upgrades on the N1 Ultra that excelled with stunning visuals and a flexible design, and its starting price of $1,999 offered a marked value in the 4K laser projector market. With this 20% discount shaving $400 off that price tag, the JMGO N1S Pro becomes quite the steal for the home theater. (Relatively speaking.)
So, what makes this projector so special? At its heart, it uses a triple-laser projection system, combining red, green, and blue lasers that let the projector offer a stunning color gamut. I’ve tested loads of projectors and quite a few OLED monitors, and none have ever dazzled me with their color in quite the same way these RGB laser projectors have. The JMGO N1S Pro runs those laser bright, too, letting it hit a 2400 ANSI lumen brightness level that can hold up even if you’ve got some ambient light in your viewing space.
With a bright, colorful, 4K picture, the JMGO N1S Pro gets a strong start. But JMGO brings extra value to the picture by building the projector onto a flexible stand. It provides rotation and tilt adjustment so you can quickly get set up. The JMGO N1S Pro can automatically adapt the picture as well, making it quick to set down and start watching. With a carrying case included, it’s ready for movie nights at your friends’ places as well—believe me, I’ve done it.
The JMGO N1S also comes with built-in speakers and Google TV, so you’ve got all you need for a respectable home theater right in one package. While it’s not essential to set it up with additional source devices and speaker systems, the JMGO N1S Pro has two HDMI 2.1 ports and one with eARC, so you can go that route if you want the visual prowess of the projector matched by a high-end soundbar or the like.
While JMGO offers two even higher-tier projectors with the N1S Ultra and N1S Ultimate, both of which are also on sale, it’s the combination of a lower starting price and big discount that make the N1S Pro particularly enticing. At $1,600, the JMGO N1S Pro is an absolute standout next to the competitors like those from Xgimi and Hisense.
