Why your next TV shouldn’t be a TV
The XGIMI TITAN Noir Max projector will up your home cinema game to pro levels.
With moving home more expensive than ever, the maxim ‘don’t move, improve’ has never held more sway. And if it’s your home cinema system you’re remodelling, a move from a TV to a projector makes a lot of sense.
While once seen as the preserve of cinephiles, projectors now have real mainstream appeal. That’s thanks to a few factors, like improved picture quality, greater ease of use (you no longer have to build your room around the placement sweet spot) and falling prices. This last one is especially pertinent – as the XGIMI TITAN Noir Max shows, you no longer have to spend crazy money to get a truly premium home cinema picture.
Film Noir
It’s not just home movie nights that the XGIMI TITAN Noir Max excels at. It’s also great for hosting the big game (be it the World Cup, Wimbledon, Commonwealth Games, Tour de France, Open golf or Formula One), gaming marathons (with a refresh rate of up to 240Hz for zero lag) or just bingeing the latest streaming box set.
This effortless versatility is helped by 300 inches of screen real estate, making even the humblest of TV shows much more immersive. It also offers deeper black levels for a more engrossing cinematic experience, especially given that directors are increasingly leaning in to the greater contrast on offer by devices like this when putting together their films. And all without the price barrier traditionally associated with a big screen experience.
Even the biggest commercially available TVs top out at around 115 inches. With the XGIMI TITAN Noir Max, your viewing canvas is almost three times the size. And when it’s turned off, it doesn’t dominate the room the way a TV does, leaving you with a more versatile social space when it comes to dissecting what you’ve just watched.
Bringing the cinema home
But the XGIMI TITAN Noir Max offers much more than mere size – it offers experience, in the form of a level of cinematic immersion that a TV just can’t match. It boasts the world’s first Dual Intelligent Iris System with a 10,000:1 native contrast and 100,000:1 dynamic contrast. That means true blacks, searingly bright highlights, and plenty of detail in between, with even dark scenes retaining a hitherto unforeseen levels of texture and nuance.
This combines with triple-laser technology, and the most advanced picture technologies around, like IMAX Enhanced and Dolby Vision, plus dynamic tone mapping (which adjusts contrast in real time for more detail) and the 24fps frame rate to preserve the look and feel of films as the director intended. All of which create a cinema-grade image, but without the sticky floors and overpriced popcorn.
It also has a flexible optical zoom and wide lens shift, giving you complete versatility of placement for seamless integration into any living space. It’s as happy in your lounge as in a dedicated home cinema room, especially with up to 7,000 ISO lumens making it bright enough to watch even on a sunny day without the curtains drawn. And there’s no complex installation required.
