Our Verdict

XGIMI MoGo 2

XGIMI MoGo 4

The XGIMI MoGo 2 is better than the XGIMI MoGo 4, at least if you're looking for the brightest projector of the two. The MoGo 2 also has better contrast, but the MoGo 4 does project a sharper 1080p image. It also adds a built-in battery, a full-size HDMI, and a 360-degree swivel stand. The MoGo 2's 2×8W speakers are louder, but it runs Android TV 11 and has no battery. If you want true portability, the MoGo 4 is the smarter pick; otherwise, the MoGo 2 projects a more striking picture.
