ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, introduces the X2-4K LED Projector for Xbox. World's first "Certified for Xbox" projector, it projects the largest certified Xbox gaming experience of any device on the market and does so at a native 120 Hz refresh. It can deliver native 1440p resolution at a 120 Hz refresh rate experience from either of the Xbox Series X|S consoles. Other features include native 4K @ 60hz Ultra HD output, made possible by a larger DMD and TI XPR technology. Built-in Harman Kardon speakers provide an exciting, immersive audio experience.

In developing the X2-4K short-throw LED projector, ViewSonic partnered with Microsoft to deliver the best gaming experience to the Xbox community. The Xbox Series X|S consoles can use HDMI Consumer Electronics Control [CEC] to send commands to and from CEC-enabled devices. CEC allows the user to operate, via controller and from the comfort of their couch, the X2-4K power on/off, and volume. This works on any of the current gaming consoles with HDMI and CEC functionality and is certified CEC compatible by the team at Xbox.



"The X2-4K projector was developed to be considered a true gaming projector," said Mia Shen, Sr. Business Line Manager at ViewSonic. "It went through 63 tests conducted by Team Xbox to ensure ultimate console compatibility and is designated as the world's first 'Designed for Xbox' certified projector."

X2-4K's native 4K @ 60 Hz output and high brightness leads to a breathtaking 4K streaming experience. Xbox Series console owners can expect a great streaming experience when pairing their consoles with the X2-4K. The projector can output 1080p @ 240 Hz with a 4.2 ms response time for the fastest possible player reaction times for the PC gaming audience. It also features an Auto Low Latency Mode [ALLM] that allows users to choose an "Ultra-Fast Input with 1/10th of the delay compared to the average 4K television*.

The projector comes with a short throw lens with an adjustable 0.69-0.83 throw ratio, H/V keystone and 4-corner adjustment capabilities. It has TÜV SÜD's Low Blue Light certification: certified to alleviate concerns of eye damage and discomfort caused by prolonged viewing.

Yet ... no VRR support, which would be the best feature. Will they ever figure out how to implement VRR into projectors?

An 85" Samsung Gsync TV for $2500 is mighty tempting. VRR and better image quality than any projector out there.
Of course, Samsung doesn't advertise them as Gysnc, which is stupid. But they are. I have 2 in the house. 65" and 75" 2021 QLED 9 series.
