Vidda C3 Pro: 4K projector with three lasers and 2,800 lumens is now orderable

The Vidda C3 Pro is now available to order via import. Specifically, the device can be found for $1,975 on Banggood with free shipping to many regions, including Europe. However, buyers should be aware that enforcing warranty claims will likely be difficult, which is a big caveat given the high price of the product.

With that out of the way, the C3 Pro utilizes three individual lasers in order to reproduce quite a few colors. To be more exact, it covers 110% of the BT.2020 color space, while the official brightness is rated at 2,800 CIVA lumens. Purportedly, users can also look forward to excellent color accuracy and a Delta E of under 0.9.

The resolution is officially listed as 3840 x 2160 pixels, but the laser projector probably uses pixel shift to achieve this 4K resolution, which is rather common in this price range. Fortunately, this usually doesn’t result in a significant decrease in terms of picture quality.

A zoom lens is included as well and allows the projection ratio to be adjusted between 0.9:1 and 1.5:1, which can make the setup much easier. Automatic focusing and keystone correction are also available, and the projector can also automatically detect and avoid obstacles. A less common feature is the ability to compensate wall colors, which can be particularly useful for improvised projection surfaces. According to Vidda, projection sizes between 80 and 300 inches are support. Numerous smart TV features are integrated, which means that this 4K laser projector does not necessarily need an external media player or other input device.

A possible alternative is the Anker Nebula X1, which is available from $2,999 on Amazon and doesn’t have to be imported.
