Our Verdict

Anker Nebula Capsule Max

XGIMI Halo+

The XGIMI Halo+ is much better than the Anker Nebula Capsule Max. They're both small portable projectors, although the Anker is smaller than the already small XGIMI. However, the XGIMI offers better image quality due to its much higher peak brightness and superior color accuracy. The XGIMI also projects a sharper 1080p image, while the Anker is limited to 720p. The XGIMI is also cast capable and even has an eARC port in case you want to connect a soundbar.
