JMGO N3 Ultimate review: this projector is so, so bright, but less compelling at night

Image
JMGO N3 Ultimate: One-minute review The JMGO N3 Ultimate is the new, top-of-the-line option from JMGO. It brings a lot of what the brand had already been packing into a new design with a motorized gimbal stand and adjustable optics that provide quick or finely controlled setup options. The JMGO N3 Ultimate's projection can be splendid, thanks to bright RGB lasers that give the projector enough juice to hold up in even well-lit rooms. The N3 Ultimate has vivid color and crisp detail, too. Unfortunately, the brightness isn’t matched by effective dimming to offer better performance in dark scenes, which is perhaps its biggest setback.

At a glance: Apple 14-inch MacBook Pro (M6) Review What is it? Apple's latest update to the 14-inch MacBook Pro doesn't change much, but it keeps the line ticking over with the new M6 chip for improved overall performance and better connectivity, all in the same familiar build. What does it cost? The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M6 starts at $1,999 / £1,999 / AU$3,199, with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. You can configure it with up to 32GB of RAM and 4TB of storage, add a Nano-Texture display, or step up to the more powerful M5 Pro or M5 Max chips. Alternatives If you need more power or a bigger screen, there's the 16-inch MacBook Pro with M6, or the 14-inch and 16-inch models with M5 Pro or M5 Max. The 13-inch and 15-inch M5 MacBook Air are better picks if you want a more portable build and can live with slightly less performance. If you want an OLED touchscreen and a thinner, lighter ...
