XGIMI Launches AURA 3 Series, Bringing Cinema-Scale Entertainment to the Living Room

Now accepting orders, the AURA 3 Series combines up to 8,000:1 native contrast, up to 5,700 ISO lumens of brightness, and 4K 120Hz high-refresh-rate support for exceptional picture quality and smooth, responsive viewing.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- XGIMI, a global leader in premium smart projection and home entertainment, today announces the official launch of its AURA 3 Series, a new generation of ultra-short-throw (UST) laser TVs first showcased at IFA 2026. Built around XGIMI's vision of Living Room Cinema, the series combines advanced projection technology, cinematic picture quality, and high-performance gaming for modern living spaces.

Building on the iris technology first introduced in the TITAN Noir Series, the AURA 3 Series features XGIMI's Dual Dynamic Iris system, delivering native contrast of up to 8,000:1 for deeper blacks and more nuanced shadow detail. With up to 5,700 ISO lumens of brightness, an RGB triple-laser light source, premium cinematic format support, and 4K 120Hz high-refresh-rate support, the series brings together vivid picture quality and smooth performance for movies, live sports, and gaming.

With a 0.163:1 ultra-short-throw ratio, the AURA 3 Series projects a 120-inch image from approximately 8 inches away, with screen sizes reaching up to 200 inches. This space-saving design delivers a cinema-scale viewing experience without requiring a ceiling-mounted projector or a dedicated home theater room.

Engineered for Cinematic Picture Quality and Gaming

The AURA 3 Series combines advanced light control and RGB triple-laser technology to deliver premium large-screen entertainment. Key features of the flagship AURA 3 Max include:

• Up to 5,700 ISO Lumens for bright, vivid images
• Up to 8,000:1 Native Contrast with Dual Dynamic Iris
• X-VISION AI Image Processor
• Built-in Google TV
• Dolby Vision®, HDR10+, HLG, IMAX Enhanced & Filmmaker Mode
• Anti-RBE technology for reduced rainbow effect in both 2D and 3D
• Cinematic 3D with two pairs of 3D glasses included
• 80W Harman Kardon speakers with Dolby Atmos
• 4K at 120Hz, with VRR, ALLM, and AMD FreeSync Premium for smoother, more responsive gameplay. The high refresh rate also helps reduce the perceived rainbow effect (RBE), contributing to a more comfortable viewing experience.

From cinematic movies and live sports to fast-paced gaming, the AURA 3 Series brings versatile, big-screen entertainment into everyday living spaces.
