Fairly accurate colors
Optical zoom Cons VIDAA OS is fine but not common
Maybe a little overpriced
You'd think big TV manufacturers would have plenty of engineering know-how to make a great projector. In my experience, though, that's not always the case. The Hisense M2 Pro, however, exceeded my expectations and does a lot of things really well. It's decently bright, has fairly accurate color, a really good contrast ratio and even an optical zoom. Combine that with a price of around $1,300 and it's a pretty easy projector to recommend.
The M2 Pro's negatives are largely unrelated to performance, but to price. You can spend a bit more and get a better, brighter projector, or you can spend less and get fairly similar performance. In addition, its onboard VIDAA OS has all the major apps, but perhaps not as many of the smaller ones compared to Google TV. So, basically, the M2 Pro is very good for the money, but at a lower price it'd be amazing.
