Pros

  • Imo get xgimi 4k if you need the lightweight and portability
  • Fan noise is also very low. Once a movie or game starts, I usually stop noticing the projector entirely.
  • Overall, my experience with the Elfin Flip 4K has been very positive. What surprised me most is how well the whole package works as a portable projector.
  • The built-in speakers were another big surprise. Normally I assume projector speakers are something I'll tolerate until I connect something better, but I can comfortably watch an entire movie using the Elfin Flip's speakers. Bass has a s...
  • The automatic keystone correction is one of the biggest surprises. I've used automatic setup features on the Valerion, Hisense C2 Ultra, and Nebula projectors, and the Elfin Flip has been the most consistently accurate for me.

Cons

  • Imo neither are bright enough for 120", my flip 4k I rather keep it max 100" for brightness. If you need the portability then flip 4k is better choice
  • The XGimi Elfin Flip 4K and the JMGO N1S 4K are solid choices, but not nearly as bright or as good for home theater/HDR viewing.
  • Their Elfin Flip 4K is a solid model, but half the brightness (or less) of the Trivision Ultra when properly calibrated.
  • similar to the XGimi Elfin Flip 4K and the JMGO N1S 4K models. Kind of dim, but decent portable models.
  • The power cable is a little short. That sounds minor, but it's particularly annoying on a projector whose entire design encourages flexible placement.

The built-in speakers were another big surprise. Normally I assume projector speakers are something I'll tolerate until I connect something better, but I can comfortably watch an entire movie using the Elfin Flip's speakers. Bass has a surprising amount of punch for the size, and dialogue is very clear.

The problem is that at 150 inches, it isn't bright enough. SDR remained watchable in a completely dark room, but HDR became noticeably flatter and more washed out. Bright highlights didn't have enough intensity to really stand out.
