On April 18th, the leading brand in large-screen technology, Tanbei, held its 2024 Spring New Product Launch Event under the theme "Touch and Transform." The Tanbei Projection D6X and D6X Pro, along with the upgraded Tanbei Projection X5S, were officially unveiled. Departing from the conventional form of home projectors, the Tanbei D6X series pioneers the "AI Dynamic Screen," creating a brand-new dual-screen interactive experience and incorporating a dynamic cloud platform, marking the beginning of the era of Home Projection 3.0.
The potential of home projectors? At this latest product launch event, BenQ provided its answer. As a trailblazer in the era of Home Projectors 3.0, the BenQ D6X series underwent revolutionary changes in product form, AI interaction, system applications, and more. By integrating cinema-grade image technology with futuristic product design, it has boldly exceeded industry and public expectations for home projectors.
Not just projection: Introducing AI Dynamic Screen, a brand-new dual-screen interactive experience that keeps you hooked on AI.
The AI Dynamic Screen enables "operating like a phone with projection."
The evolution of home projection has seen significant changes over the years:
During the 1.0 era, home projectors could only project images and lacked additional entertainment functions.
In the 2.0 era, home projectors integrated operating systems, similar to smartphones and TVs, gaining intelligent functions. They began serving as the primary entertainment hub for households, offering vastly improved experiences. Additionally, with advantages such as "large screen size," "immersive experience," "eye protection," and "high playability," smart projectors gradually became a favorite among young people.
In the midst of the global AI wave, one can't help but wonder: when will the era of Projection 3.0 arrive? What experiences will it bring? And who will lead the charge?
With the release of the D6X Pro by Dangbei, all these questions find their answers.
The era of Projection 3.0 will be marked by the advent of dual-screen AI projection, pioneered by the all-new Dangbei Projection D6X series.
The Dangbei Projection D6X series introduces the innovative AI Dynamic Screen, boasting a screen size of 6.95 inches. This screen, larger than even the iPhone 15 Pro Max, expands the horizons of smart projection.
Firstly, with the Lingo Screen, you can "take shortcuts" with ease.
Just two steps of "tap and flip," and the Lingo Screen swiftly opens the app for you, sparing you the hassle of searching back and forth with the remote control and navigating through layers of button clicks. It serves as a 24-hour standby companion, delivering timely reminders via push notifications, whether it's updates on trending TV shows or important sports events, all available for instant projection with a flip. Pull down the Lingo Screen, and you can access the control center, where you have the freedom to adjust projector sound, enable Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, hotspot, and more. The unique remote locator feature of the Dobby projector can also be accessed directly from the control center.
Not only that, but the Magic Touchpad also serves as a magical touch control panel.
Whether it's a smart TV or a smart projector, navigation has always been a major pain point for users. Despite continuous refinement in remote control design by major manufacturers, it's always been a bit lackluster. But what if controlling a projector could be as intuitive as using a smartphone?
The Magic Touchpad brings this imagination to life. It's akin to the touch area on an Apple MacBook mouse. For instance, when binge-watching a series or enjoying a movie, we often need to perform actions like play, pause, rewind, or fast forward. With traditional remotes, this requires constantly toggling between buttons. However, the Magic Touchpad enables comprehensive swipe interactions. A gentle tap lets you play or pause at will, freely adjust playback progress, all without enduring the discomfort of repeatedly pressing buttons on a remote.
The versatile entertainment companion, the Dynamic Screen, offers more ways to play.
Moreover, through the unique floating lyrics effect of Dangbei OS, the Dynamic Screen supports Bluetooth and Dangbei Cool Dog Music for online playback, while presenting the mood of each song; the creative clock design offers 8 modes, with a retro pull-ring "click" to switch between day and night scenes on the screen clock picture, just like the pull-chain switches from childhood, full of nostalgia; the Time Album supports multi-person uploads, allowing every family member to participate and share joyful memories; the Art Gallery showcases a perfect blend of technology, art, and home decor, like stepping into an art gallery...
Solving user pain points and innovating usage scenarios, the D6X series from Dangbei not only pioneers the concept of a projector with dual screens but also revolutionizes the interaction of ordinary home projectors—making operation as easy as using a smartphone.
With its 225-degree flexible cloud platform, enjoy movies anytime, anywhere, and however you like.
The difficulty of projector placement has been a frequent user feedback issue. To achieve the desired image effect, users often need to place books or other objects underneath the projector to adjust the angle. The new D6X series from Dangbei introduces a freely adjustable cloud platform design, using the same high-end carbon steel damping hinge as high-end notebooks, and supporting a wide-angle of up to 225 degrees.
With the support of the gimbal, the placement issue of the projector will be greatly improved. With just one hand, you can adjust the screen to the ideal effect. Coupled with the gimbal's rotation, the Mijia D6X series also boasts a full-knowledge AI visual algorithm, effortlessly accomplishing functions like auto-focusing, automatic screen entry, intelligent obstacle avoidance, and intelligent anti-glare, not only agile to your mind but also capable of real-time correction, ensuring clarity in just one second.
The attention to detail in product design at Dangbei goes beyond aesthetics. In terms of appearance, the Dangbei D6X series features an ultra-thin body that is lightweight and stylish. Its compact size allows it to be easily carried around, effortlessly bringing cinematic experiences to various settings such as living rooms, bedrooms, meeting rooms, study rooms, and even outdoors. What's even more fantastic is that for camping scenarios, the Dangbei D6X Pro adds a power bank mode, enabling movie watching on the go, much to the delight of outdoor enthusiasts!
Top-notch: Cinema-grade display technology + MT9669 chip, this is "Dangbei"
Cinema-grade laser light source, brightness far exceeds peers

"Light, fast, and free" - AI goes further. With AI reshaping, Dangbei OS boasts powerful learning capabilities. Continuously optimizing algorithms based on user habits, Dangbei OS enhances recommendation effectiveness over time, getting to know you better.
Industry-leading tech for surprises
Industry "black technology" including remote control retrieval, split-screen operation, picture-in-picture, etc., are designs praised by users on Dangbei OS. Among them, the most representative is the "remote control retrieval" function. Dangbei OS supports two methods for remote control retrieval: the Dangbei Family APP and the Dangbei OS public account, so you never have to worry about losing your remote control when you're in a rush to watch your favorite show.
