What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.8 for now.

What customers like about WiMiUS G2

  • 2500 lumens give a bright picture with the lights on.
  • A 400 inch maximum picture fills a large wall.
  • The 55 W audio output gives full sound for a living room.
  • The lamp is rated for 300000 hours, so it should last for many years.
  • Audible noise of 30 dB is quiet during a film.
  • Frame interpolation smooths fast motion such as sport.

What customers don't like about WiMiUS G2

  • At 288 mm tall, it needs a shelf or a ceiling mount.
  • Frame interpolation can give films a video look that some viewers dislike.
  • There is one USB port, so only one drive or stick can stay plugged in.
  • The 1080p panel shows less detail on a 400 inch picture.
  • There is no motorized zoom, so the picture size depends on where it sits.

Verdict

With 2500 lumens and a picture up to 400 inch, the WiMiUS G2 suits a large living room or a garden wall where the lights stay on. The 55 W audio output is strong, so a separate speaker is often not needed for films. Its 30000:1 contrast and HDR10 support give dark scenes more depth, and frame interpolation smooths fast motion. The lamp is rated for 300000 hours, and it can sit on a ceiling. Its 30 dB noise is quiet, and the app, voice commands and AirPlay make it easy to run from a phone. At 288 mm tall, it needs a proper shelf or a ceiling mount. It fits a family who wants a huge picture with the lights on and has room for a bigger box.
