Final Verdict
The X3100i is the dedicated gamer’s machine: 4LED light source, dedicated console/FPS/RPG picture modes, Android TV, and a fast 1080p/240Hz mode. The TK710 is the brighter, simpler laser all-rounder that handles movies and sports just as well as games. Buy the X3100i if gaming is the main event; the TK710 if the projector must do everything.
