Our Verdict
XGIMI Elfin
BenQ X3000i
The BenQ X3000i is much better than the XGIMI Elfin, although the XGIMI is a much smaller projector that is much easier to carry around. The XGIMI even comes with full auto keystone and autofocus technologies, making it much easier to set up. Otherwise, the BenQ is much brighter with slightly better contrast, is noticeably more accurate, and has more advanced gaming features with its full 1080p @ 240Hz support.
