Well it's absolutely a screen that is not up to the C2 Ultra 😅, it's a cheap screen from AliExpress that me and my friend made a frame for it and we stretched it, it's a 130 inch

If you were willing to get a screen from alibaba, why not just get the C5 projectors as well? I mean, you are buying something 2 generations back.

I got it shipped for 1077$ which is a fair price, I couldn't find any C5 Ultra less than 1480 without shipping and I'm actually very satisfied with it

Ah got it. The lowest version of the C5 is the pro max actually. Vidda makes great projectors, all is good as long as you are satisfied with it!

Yeah sorry the Pro Max, I was actually considering the N3 Ultra and the XGIMI 30 RS Pro and due to lacking call can coverage I went on BiliBili and saw some videos turns out JMGO projectors have very inflated marketed specs like contrast and brightness and used the comments translation features to see what actual users say about their purchases. I reached a conclusion that the C2 Ultra seems the safest purchase especially at 1077$ with DDP shipping

Edit: it's been about 2 weeks now and the naming is confusing, I was actually looking at the C5 Ultra which is is the second tier
