Read more:The Only TV I’d Ever Buy

Zhao is working on a new guide to mini-projectors, and the XGIMI Halo+ GTV is going to be the best overall pick. It’s bright enough to work indoors during the day (as long as the shades are drawn) and has a processor suitable for streaming sports, but it’s also louder than the MoGo 4.
