As a portable projector, small and convenient to take out is certainly necessary, these four projectors meet this, although they are different shapes. Both XGIMI Halo and Elfin have a mid-range shape, with Halo resembling a rectangular box and Elfin being a bit flatter. On the other hand, Samsung The Freestyle and Emotn H1 are a little more creative in terms of design. The Freestyle has a small spotlight shape with a bottom bracket that can rotate 360 degrees, and Emotn H1 adopts the design of retro speakers, in line with the aesthetics of contemporary youth, and the leather carrying handle is convenient to carry on the go. In addition, the Emotn H1's top keys use the blue shift of the mechanical keyboard, which is very pleasing to the Z-generation.
Of the four projectors, the XGIMI Halo and Eflin have a higher brightness of 600-800 ANSI, The Freestyle and Emotn H1 have a brightness of 250 ANSI lumens (The Freestyle brightness is labeled as 550 LED lumen, which is about 250 ANSI lumen).
