Our Verdict
Epson Home Cinema 3800
XGIMI HORIZON Ultra
The Epson Home Cinema 3800 is better than the XGIMI HORIZON Ultra for watching movies with its higher brightness, better color accuracy, and superior contrast. The XGIMI, however, has more features, with full Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth connectivity and a full suite of image correction features.
