Our Verdict

Formovie THEATER

Hisense PX3-PRO

The Hisense PX3-PRO is better than the Formovie THEATER. While the Formovie has the slightly better contrast, the Hisense is noticeably brighter, with more vibrant and punchier colors. The Hisense is also more accurate out-of-the-box, even if it's noticeably too warm, and it can be improved more easily than the Formovie through calibration. Finally, the Hisense comes with a wider array of smart, wireless, and gaming features, making it more versatile than the Formovie.
