Our Verdict
Epson EpiqVision Mini EF12
XGIMI HORIZON Ultra
The XGIMI HORIZON Ultra is much better than the Epson EpiqVision Mini EF12, but the Epson is smaller and easier to carry around. Still, the XGIMI is much brighter, has a wider color gamut, and has slightly better contrast. The XGIMI also projects a sharper image with its pixel-shifting technology, while the Epson is limited to 1080p.
