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.

Into this fractious and uncertain landscape lands the Asus ROG Xbox Ally handheld, and its more souped-up version, the ROG Xbox Ally X. Launching later this week at $600 and $1,000, respectively, these gadgets are some major firsts for Microsoft. They're the first Xbox portable devices, even if their claim to being "Xboxes" is mostly a matter of marketing. They're the first post-Steam Deck portable gaming PCs made explicitly in cooperation with Microsoft and Xbox, though Asus has made two generations before them. And they're the official debut of the Xbox Fullscreen Mode, Microsoft's answer to the Steam Deck user interface.
