XGIMI MoGo 2 Pro: First impressions and overview of features
The MoGo 2 Pro projector impresses with its solid construction and attractive appearance. Moreover, its compact dimensions of 161 x 119 x 108 mm (6.33 x 4.68 x 4.25 inches) make it easy to put in your backpack and take it with you when traveling. Besides, it weighs only 1.1kg. Positioned on the front, the ToF Autofocus and Lens are situated at the top, while the Auto Keystone Correction is located at the bottom. Turning to the back of the projector, you’ll discover a USB Type-C charging port, USB 2.0, HDMI, and a 3.5mm port. Above the ports, there are holes for discharging hot air. On the sides of the housing, under the mesh, MoGo 2 Pro houses 8W Harman/Kardon speakers with Dolby Audio. Additionally, the MoGo 2 Pro projector body comes equipped with a transparent bass diaphragm window on the rear, providing users with a clear view of the diaphragm structure and the internal movement of sound within the speaker.
Together with the projector, XGIMI provides a Bluetooth voice remote control with the characteristic Google voice assistant button. We can now assure you that voice commands are transmitted via remote work without any problems. By the way, it is worth adding that the projector supports a power supply from a power bank with a power of 65W or more. This allows you to use MoGo 2 Pro, for example, at a campsite or in a place where you have problems with access to electricity.

What distinguishes the MoGo 2 Pro projector is its easy operation and automatic adjustment of the displayed image. And all this is thanks to ISA 2.0 (Intelligent Screen Adjustment) technology. This technology includes:

Below you will find animations that will certainly make it easier for you to understand.
Besides, you can also manually adjust the image using settings.
Displayed image and Audio Quality
Android TV and other features
As we have already mentioned, XGIMI MoGo 2 Pro runs on Android TV 11 OS and has built-in Chromecast and Google Assistant. We can say that the operation is typical of most certified Android TV boxes that we have tested. We had no problem with the system. When it comes to popular streaming services, especially Netflix, unfortunately, it is not pre-installed. However, you can easily load the app using the instructions provided in the box. After installing the Netflix application, it works without any problems. However, better image quality can be achieved by using, for example, external 4K streaming devices (HDMI Stick / TV Box) with Netflix certification, such as Xiaomi TV Stick 4K, Homatics Box R 4K Plus, or others. Other services such as Disney, HBO Max, and Prime Video also work well. download and install applications from the Google Play store. The MoGo 2 Pro projector can also play videos up to 2160p (4K) on YouTube, depending on the video being played, it is smooth or with slight delays.
We had no problems with WiFi (after tests, download: 215Mbps, upload: 134Mbps). Of course, Android TV OS supports games and after pairing with a wireless controller you can play on a “really big screen”, for example, the popular Beach Buggy Reacing, Asphalt, etc. You can also connect consoles via HDMI and play better titles.
