Why it matters
Transform your living room into a cinematic entertainment space with the XGIMI AURA 3 Series. Capable of projecting a 120-inch image from just 8 inches away, these ultra-short-throw 4K RGB laser projectors combine brilliant colors, exceptional contrast, smooth 120Hz visuals, and immersive sound. From movie nights to live sports and gaming, enjoy a larger-than-life experience without the complexity of a traditional projector setup.
Product Introduction
A massive home theater screen sounds appealing, but finding enough space for a conventional projector can be a challenge. Ceiling installations, long projection distances, and furniture arrangements often make the experience more complicated than expected.
The XGIMI AURA 3 Series offers a different approach. Thanks to ultra-short-throw projection technology, it produces a remarkably large image while sitting just inches from the wall. There is no need for a ceiling mount or a long projection path across the room.
Available in two models, the AURA 3 Max and AURA 3 Pro, the series brings together 4K UHD resolution, RGB triple-laser technology, advanced contrast control, and 120Hz playback. Whether you're watching a film, following a sporting event, or playing your favorite games, the experience is designed to feel expansive without demanding an entirely dedicated home theater room.
Key Features of the XGIMI AURA 3 Series
A 120-Inch Screen from Just 8 Inches Away
One of the most compelling features of the AURA 3 Series is its 0.163:1 ultra-short-throw ratio.
It can project a 120-inch image from approximately 8 inches (20.3 cm) away from the wall, with supported screen sizes ranging from 80 to 200 inches.
Unlike conventional projectors that require considerable distance between the lens and the screen, the AURA 3 Series can sit near the wall. This reduces the need for ceiling mounting and helps minimize shadows caused by people walking between the projector and the image.
Setting up the picture is also designed to be straightforward. Features such as automatic keystone correction, autofocus, screen alignment assistance, wall flatness adaptation, and wall color adaptation help simplify image adjustment.
The result is a large-screen entertainment setup that fits more naturally into everyday living spaces.
Up to 5,700 ISO Lumens with Rich RGB Triple-Laser Colors
A large image is only part of the experience. Brightness and color reproduction are equally important, especially when enjoying entertainment in a living room with ambient light.
The flagship AURA 3 Max delivers up to 5,700 ISO lumens, while the AURA 3 Pro offers 4,100 ISO lumens. Both are designed to deliver bright, vivid images in a variety of home viewing conditions.
Their RGB triple-laser light source uses separate red, green, and blue lasers to produce a broad color range. The AURA 3 Max covers 110% of the BT.2020 color gamut, helping reproduce vibrant landscapes, subtle shades, and rich cinematic colors.
For an enhanced viewing experience, the series also supports Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HLG, IMAX Enhanced, and Filmmaker Mode.
The integrated X-VISION AI Image Processor analyzes and optimizes images in real time, refining details, contrast, and HDR brightness to help each scene look its best.
From colorful animated films to dramatic cinematic landscapes, the AURA 3 Series brings impressive visual detail to the big screen.
Dual Dynamic Iris Technology Reveals More in Every Scene
Bright images alone cannot create a convincing cinematic atmosphere. Deep blacks, accurate highlights, and subtle shadow details are just as important.
The AURA 3 Series features a Dual Dynamic Iris system, which uses two optical irises to precisely manage light output.
The AURA 3 Max achieves a native contrast ratio of up to 8,000:1, while the AURA 3 Pro offers up to 7,000:1.
By automatically adjusting the iris according to scene brightness, the system helps preserve detail in both dark and bright areas. It makes dimly lit movie scenes more expressive without sacrificing the clarity of brighter elements.
Dynamic Black Enhancement further improves the perceived depth of darker images while preserving shadow detail and natural color reproduction.
The projection system also incorporates a precision-engineered 19-element optical assembly, designed to maintain sharpness and color consistency across the screen.
These technologies work together to deliver a more refined and dimensional cinematic image.
4K at 120Hz Makes Fast-Moving Entertainment Smoother
Fast-paced games and sporting events demand more than high resolution. Motion clarity and responsiveness can make a significant difference to the viewing experience.
The AURA 3 Series supports 4K UHD resolution (3840 × 2160) at up to 120Hz, refreshing the image up to 120 times per second.
This helps keep fast-moving subjects clearer and reduces motion blur, making racing games, action titles, and sports broadcasts more enjoyable on a massive screen.
For gaming, the series supports Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and AMD FreeSync Premium. These technologies help reduce screen tearing and input delay when used with compatible devices.
The projectors also feature 4K 120Hz MEMC motion compensation, which uses frame interpolation to improve motion smoothness. Native 24fps movie playback helps preserve the original cinematic frame cadence.
To enjoy 4K 120Hz playback, a compatible source device must be connected through HDMI 2 or HDMI 3, with the corresponding HDMI EDID setting manually configured to 2.1. USB media playback does not support 4K 120Hz.
Whether you're enjoying competitive gameplay or an action-packed movie, the AURA 3 Series is built to keep motion fluid and detailed.
Google TV and 80W Harman Kardon Audio Complete the Experience
A great home entertainment system should make both discovering content and enjoying it effortless.
With Google TV built in, the AURA 3 Series provides access to popular streaming services, including Netflix, YouTube, and Prime Video, without requiring a separate streaming device.
Google Home integration and voice commands offer additional ways to navigate and control entertainment.
Audio is handled by an integrated 80W Harman Kardon speaker system, designed to deliver powerful, room-filling sound.
Support for Dolby Atmos and DTS Virtual enhances the sense of depth and immersion, making cinematic sound effects, dialogue, and music an integral part of the experience.
The series also supports 3D playback and includes two pairs of 3D glasses, allowing two viewers to enjoy compatible 3D content together.
For visual comfort, Anti-RBE technology reduces distracting rainbow effects in both 2D and 3D content. Additional optical technologies help minimize laser speckle and color fringing for cleaner-looking images.
Designed for Living Spaces, with Flexible Connectivity
The AURA 3 Series is designed to remain visible in the room rather than being hidden away.
Its clean, horizontally oriented form complements its ultra-short-throw functionality, allowing the projector to sit near the display wall as part of the entertainment setup.
Connectivity is equally versatile, with three HDMI ports, three USB ports, Gigabit Ethernet, optical audio output, and an additional audio output.
These options make it possible to connect compatible gaming consoles, media players, audio equipment, and other entertainment devices.
Combined with its integrated streaming platform and audio system, the AURA 3 Series provides a flexible foundation for a home entertainment space without the need for a complicated traditional projector installation.
Conclusion
The XGIMI AURA 3 Series brings together cinematic picture quality, high-refresh-rate gaming performance, powerful integrated audio, and the convenience of ultra-short-throw projection.
For viewers who prioritize maximum brightness and contrast, the AURA 3 Max offers the more advanced performance. The AURA 3 Pro provides the same core 4K RGB laser technology and 120Hz capabilities with a lower brightness and contrast specification.
Both models are appealing options for anyone who wants to enjoy larger-than-life movies, sports, and games without completely redesigning their living room.
With the AURA 3 Series, the big-screen experience no longer has to be reserved for special occasions. It can become part of the way you enjoy entertainment at home.
