Evaluation: Xgimi Titan Noir Max Residence Projector (2026)

To check deep blacks, I enabled DBLE and performed round with much more settings, together with these for noise discount and sharpness. My favourite sci-fi movie for testing deep blacks is The Creator, significantly an early-morning scene within the film. Each tv and projectors with poor distinction and brightness renders this clip as washed out, however the Titan Noir Max made the blacks and darkish grays look wealthy with out a trace of poor distinction, helped largely by the dynamic iris and DBLE.

That mentioned, the Titan Noir Max did not cross each take a look at with flying colours. Avatar: Fireplace and Ash appeared extra lifelike and colourful on the Epson ProCinema LS9000, which makes use of a high-end lens that does a greater job with focus throughout the whole picture. Whereas the Titan Noir Max nonetheless appeared phenomenal, vivid, and colourful in a scene with whale-like creatures on a sunny day, the LS9000 beats it by way of pure decision and excessive focus. That specific scene appeared roughly the identical on the Leica Cine Play 1 because the Titan with vivid colours.

After which I began testing in a brightly lit room. Many projectors, together with the Leica Cine Play 1, don’t carry out nicely in a vivid room. The Titan Noir Max was nonetheless spectacular throughout battle scenes within the film Conflict Machine on Netflix, particularly when the motion is outdoor. I additionally watched Unbroken and the colours had been nonetheless vivid and never washed out. Nonetheless, within the darkest scenes of the film Awake, which takes place at night time, the image high quality was not nice. Each Awake and Tron: Ares appeared spectacular in a darkish room, however washed out in a sunny room.

Wonderful for Gaming and Every thing Else

I used to be largely bought on the image high quality in a darkish room however needed to check the dynamic iris much more. That’s the place the sport 007: First Gentle on the Xbox got here in useful. There’s a mind-blowing part late within the recreation on a ship with colourful flowers that appeared eye-poppingly actual at 120 inches on my projector display. The max measurement for this mannequin is 300 inches, or sufficiently big to challenge onto a double stall storage door. I didn’t strive that as a result of, at 18 kilos, the Titan Noir Max isn’t that moveable.

The colours adjusted lightning quick in a nighttime phase throughout First Gentle, altering from vivid solar to misty clouds and some darker shadows. The Titan Noir Max continuously and immediately adjusts for these tonal variations. You possibly can hear the iris adjusting faintly in case you allow that characteristic, which I loved however others may discover irritating. With all the gunfire within the recreation or throughout a chaotic film like Hoppers, you gained’t ever hear the iris.
