Our Verdict

Hisense PX3-PRO

XGIMI AURA 2

The Hisense PX3-PRO and XGIMI AURA 2 are closely matched, with the Hisense having a slight edge overall. The XGIMI is a bit brighter and far more accurate out-of-the-box, but the Hisense has slightly better contrast and a much wider color gamut. While they both have a ton of features, the Hisense has more features for gamers, alongside an option to game at high refresh rates.
