Back in June, well-known projector brand XGIMI introduced us to the latest entries into the Elfin line: the Elfin Flip 4K and Elfin Flip Laser. While the launch happened last month, you could only pre-order the attractive, new portable projectors. Now, the pre-order period is over, and sales have gone live in the US.
If you need a refresher on what the Elfin Flip 4K and Laser bring to the table, both models are slim and portable long-throw projectors that use RGB triple laser technology. Both also offer Google TV, 1,600 ISO lumens of brightness, 2GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, have a MediaTek MT9660 chip, and come with a 7W Harman Kardon speaker.

While the two projectors share a handful of specs, there are also a few places where they differ. The biggest difference is that, true to the name, the Flip 4K provides a 4K resolution, and the Laser offers 1080p. You’re also getting a far better dynamic contrast ratio at 20,000:1 compared to the Laser’s 10,000:1 ratio.

It’s also worth pointing out that the Flip 4K delivers a 1ms input lag at 1080p at 120Hz, and has VRR and ALLM support, Black Equalizer, Virtual Crosshair, and a Gaming Picture Mode. The company claims that the Elfin Flip 4K is the first in the series to provide console-level gaming performance.
The Elfin Flip 4K and Laser are available to purchase today in the US. It will cost you $999 for the 4K model and $799 for the Laser. You can follow these Elfin Flip 4K and Elfin Flip Laser links to place your order on XGIMI’s website.
