Looking for a simple home cinema solution to level up your movie nights, but don’t fancy any complex cable management? Then you should check out this Xgimi Horizon Ultra deal. The deal lets you get the Xgimi Horizon Ultra for just £1349 at Amazon (save £150).

Though it won’t match the experience you’ll get with the Sony projector mentioned above, or a proper multi-speaker 5.1 audio setup, the Ultra wins in one key area: convenience.

The unit is one of the growing number of “home cinemas in a box” featuring a Harmon Kardon tuned sound system, and UST throw distance that make it quick and easy to set up.

Though it struggles with shadow detail in some instances, we also found plenty to like about it during testing. The Horizon Ultra offers solid audio considering its small size and a punchy, sharp and bright picture that is more than good enough for casual viewing. Hence our reviewer’s conclusion:

“The Horizon Ultra marks a pretty auspicious debut for Xgimi’s new hybrid laser/LED light engine. There are certainly things about its picture – its vibrancy, its exceptional colour range, its sharpness and its strikingly effortless intensity among other things – that suggest the technology has a bright (pun intended) future.”

Welcome to the What Hi-Fi? Home Cinema Black Friday deals live hub! In it myself (What Hi-Fi? Editor, Alastair Stevenson) and the wider home cinema reviews team will be swapping in and out to bring you our curated picks of the latest and greatest savings to be had this deals season.

And I have a special treat to kick things off – a cracking deal on the five-star Sony VPL-XW5000ES. Specifically you can grab the Sony VPL-XW5000ES for £4399 at Sevenoaks Sound and Vision (save £1600).

Why’s that a good deal? First because it’s the best price we’ve ever seen the unit sell for. Second, because it’s one of the best projectors you’ll get right now – to the point as well as giving it a perfect five star rating, we also still use it for comparative testing in our viewing rooms!
