Verdict

The Wanbo X2 Max is a compact Full HD (1920 x 1080) LED projector featuring a brightness of 450 ANSI lumens and a 2000:1 contrast ratio, capable of projecting images from 40 to 120 inches. Its standout characteristics include an AI-driven system for automatic focus and four-point keystone correction, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and integrated Android 9.0 for direct streaming. Key pros are its portable 1.5kg lightweight design, dual 5W Hi-Fi speakers with improved bass, and a high-transmittance three-layer glass lens that minimizes corner blurring. However, notable cons include its limited 1GB RAM/8GB storage configuration which can affect system snappiness, a relatively short power cable, and brightness levels that require a darkened room for optimal performance.
