Grab a blanket and your s’mores-roasting sticks, and cue up KPop Demon Hunters (or NFL Sunday Ticket): Fall is prime outdoor watch party season. The one hiccup? The projector.
I’ve tested a handful over the years, and so have my family and friends, and they’re often…a little lackluster. The picture can be blurry, or hard to adjust, and you’re often waiting until it’s pitch-black outside and everyone’s already barreled through the popcorn before showtime can begin. Not ideal.
That’s why, when I heard XGIMI’s Mogo 4 projector brought a better-than-the-drive-in experience to your backyard, I had to try it out. And I’m so glad I did. It’s easily the sleekest, easiest-to-use projector I’ve tried, with hands down the best picture quality. For $499, it’s like having a big screen TV you can take anywhere, perfect for tailgate season, birthday parties and reunions (hello, nostalgia-inducing slideshow of your childhood years, blown up to the size of your living room wall), not to mention epic movie nights and “dive-in” movies at the pool.
