So I purchased the Wemax dice before getting the xgimi halo + because I didn’t want to spend the extra money, but I couldn’t help myself in getting this as well to compare for myself to see any real differences between the two. Either way they are both up there in price. Although I do really like the Wemax dice, and at first I thought to myself “wow this thing is awesome and the speakers sound great, I don’t think I need to even open the halo +” but boy was I wrong.
After testing both, there’s just a few things that I can’t live with out in terms of features and service. (Auto keystone correction, customer service )
I’ll write a list of things that I like better on the halo + vs wemax dice
PROS of Halo+
-sound quality
Now I thought the dice sounded great, but after playing the same audio side by side, the halo has a much more natural cleaner sound coming out of it, it’s actually so much better i changed my view of the dice speaker and wanted to just mute it.
- the remote control on the halo feels better in terms of “clicky” of the presses. Feels superior in quality and I do like that it’s white, easier to find if misplaced.
- picture quality 5%-10% better (not noticeable unless you really take a look side by side)
-halo is slight brighter since the lumens are higher
-halo has kick stand which is really helpful, more than I thought it would be.
- BIGGEST PRO is auto keystone adjustment (MUST HAVE) after playing with this feature, I’m in love, so much that this alone sold me on it because it saves so much time, it’s smart and when you have kids that love to shake a table a bit, that can throw the screen off enough to bother you , and make you re adjust to perfection. With halo + , it’s all done for you!
-manual keystone on the dice was annoying because it just took way too long to get corners where I wanted them, with halo + it was much faster.
-with halo I can stick in a fire stick and have it powered via usb drive (with wemax it said it isn’t providing enough power, that I would need to plug the fire stick into an outlet, which defeats the purpose of being portable)
Halo + pushes more power to the fire stick!
Not only that but i needed a extension adapter because the shell of the dice restricted the fire stick to fit flush since it’s pretty thick. With the halo + , I had no issues since the shell had no restrictions as it was flush.
-OS on the halo + was 10-15% faster and everything just felt more snappy.
-CUSTOMER SERVICE- I contacted Wemax dice and it took them a couple days to respond (only option is email) and they just kept asking for videos when I clearly told them the issue I was having, which is that the auto keystone wasn’t working. Turns out, it didn’t have one. Only the halo + did.
With XGIMI though, they have a US customer care number that operates surprisingly later than most companies and you will get a live person, but even if you didn’t, they emailed me back same day! Not only that they went above and beyond to take care of my needs. This to me was worth the difference I paid alone because I know that I won’t have to worry about anything ever happening to my projector. They stand behind their product, they will go the extra mile for you, trust me they are just awesome!
This started as me getting a portable projector because my wife asked for one for the family to watch movies outside in the back yard, to me getting really excited about my new toy. This thing has so much more uses than just a back yard theater, I’ll be taking this thing everywhere I go. It’s a portable 30”-120” tv when ever you want! Especially hotels for my business trips. XGIMI is an amazing brand that I’m very happy to have discovered!
Over all it’s SO worth spending the extra $200 for the halo+ , I am a person that cares about the small details in tech and XGIMI NAILED IT on this projector! If you are on the fence, let this be your sign to get it, you will be much happier.

Good but Not bright enough for bright room
I like the projector, and it is really easy to use. I teach a class and connect it to my phone using a USBC adapter that I bought. I stream YouTube videos from my phone and also show the kids different apps that I navigate to on my phone. For movies and such, you have to turn the lights in the room off in order to see this well even though it is pretty bright.
