The new XGIMI Elfin smart projector has been launched in India, adding to the company's product portfolio in the country. The device comes after the launch of the company's Aura 4K laser TV a few weeks ago. The Elfin smart projector comes with special eye protection features and offers longer battery life, with a premium price tag. Here's everything you need to know about the Elfin smart projector that was recently launched in the country. The device is priced at ₹79,999, according to the listing on the company's website, as well as Amazon.

The XGIMI Elfin smart projector comes with a compact, portable build and the company says that the device comes with support for a 200-inch display (at 1080p) with up to 800 ANSI lumens. The device weighs 1.98 pounds (or around 900 grams) and is 1.97 inches tall. The projector comes with support for HDR 10+ content and 3D content, and has Chromecast support built-in. The company also says that the XGIMI Elfin smart projector has a 1.2:1 throw ratio which ideal for offices and gyms. The throw ratio is the distance between a projector lens and the screen and reveals what image size can be projected from a specific distance, so with a throw ratio of 1.5, the throw distance must be 1.5 feet for every 1 foot of image width.

The XGIMI Elfin smart projector comes with support for HDMI 2 support, dual-band Wi-Fi, one USB 2 port and Bluetooth 5. On the audio front, the XGIMI Elfin smart projector comes with a headphone jack while also sporting 3W audio speakers that offer Doly Audio support -- the sound system is tuned by Harman Kardon. The projector also boasts support for taking voice commands with the Google Assistant that is built-in. The Elfin smart projector runs on Android TV 10 and comes with the Google Play Store, so uses can download Disney+Hotstar, Netflix, Prime Video among 5,000 other compatible apps.

The XGIMI Elfin smart projector also supports a built-in game mode that boosts performance by reducing latency and ensuring a high refresh rate. The display itself comes with safety features like reduced Blue Light exposure, which studies say can inhibit the secretion of melatonin and have an adverse impact on sleep. The XGIMI Elfin smart projector lamp is also rated up to 30,000 hours, which should ensure longevity.
