After a widely hyped and successful Kickstarter campaign, Valerion's 4K VisionMaster Max laser projector has finally arrived. It's the company's new flagship model in the VisionMaster series, offering better image quality and more convenience than its other models. However, it's quite expensive and has some stiff competition from Anker's Nebula X1 and XGIMI's Horizon 20 Max.
I was eager to see how it compared to those models and if it delivers on Valerion's promise of "pure cinema." It does offer better image quality, but the difference isn't quite enough to justify the big jump in price for most users.
Features and design
The VisionMaster Max has a classy squarish design with a glossy black finish up front and chrome fins on the side that house two 12W speakers. It's smaller and fit my decor better than Nebula's tall, plasticky X1, though to be fair the latter is also designed for outdoor use. The VisionMaster Max has a similar form factor to XGIMI's Horizon 20 Max, but that model pivots on its stand, while the Valerion uses a kickstand-like support.
For setup, the VisionMaster Max is quite flexible. It comes with a 0.9-1.5x optical zoom, so it can be installed between 7.8 and 13 feet away for a 120-inch screen size, which covers a wide range of scenarios. It also features a /- 105 percent vertical shift option that helps you get an optically perfect screen fit without moving the projector or employing digital "keystone" adjustments that affect picture quality.

There's really only one problem: my laptop is too old for a Windows 11 update. On October 14th, 2025, Windows 10 will reach the end of its life period, which means no new features or security updates. The former is not a big problem. The latter will be a disaster.
I'm not alone in this situation. Over 50 percent of users are still running Windows 10, and this figure is gradually dropping. How many will have updated in six months' time is anyone's guess, but whatever the percentage, one thing is clear. A large proportion of the world's 1.6 billion Windows PCs will still be running Windows 10 on October 14th, 2025.
What makes this challenging is that Windows 11 is so technically demanding that it's not possible to update all fully functional computers. Sadly, my six-year-old laptop is one of them.
If Microsoft stops updating Windows 10, it wo
