XGIMI Aura 2: How quiet is the laser TV?
This article contains affiliate links (marked with *). If you buy through them, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This does not influence our selection.
In short: XGIMI rates the Aura 2 at 32 dB. The retailer Coolblue lists this explicitly as the maximum noise level, and gives 32 dB for eco mode as well.
- That is quiet, but audible in a silent scene: a quiet living room at night sits at 25 to 30 dB(A).
- A hands-on review describes it as just above the 30 dB mark, but never distracting in everyday use.
- With 180 W power draw, it produces less heat than brighter triple-laser models such as the Hisense PX3 Pro (250 W). The trade-off: 2,300 ISO lumens, so it suits a darkened room best.

Transparency: We have not measured the Aura 2 ourselves yet. The figures come from XGIMI's specifications, retailer data and the reviews linked below. We will add our own measurements under our measurement protocol (German) once we have them.
How loud is the Aura 2?
XGIMI gives 32 dB for the Aura 2's fan. What makes it stand out: the retailer Coolblue lists the value as the maximum noise level and also gives 32 dB for eco mode. Most laser TVs only state a single figure without saying which mode it refers to.
The distance and whether the value is A-weighted are not stated, so it remains a guide rather than a measurement for your living room.
What do reviewers say?
- China-Gadgets (German) describes the fan as just above the 30 dB mark and says it was not distracting in practice, partly because you sit further away from such a large picture.
- Coolblue lists the fan noise among the cons: some people might find up to 32 dB distracting.
Less light, less heat
The Aura 2 draws 180 W according to its specifications. The Hisense PX3 Pro is rated at 250 W, and for the new XGIMI Aura 3 Max, Spykevision measured up to around 268 W in its brightest setting. More power means more waste heat, and the fan has to work harder to remove it. That may be one reason why the Aura 2 can commit to a firm maximum. The trade-off is brightness: at 2,300 ISO lumens it is dimmer than current triple-laser models.
How to make the Aura 2 quieter
- Seating distance: every doubling of the distance lowers the level by up to 6 dB.
- Solid furniture: a sturdy TV stand that does not resonate keeps vibrations down.
- Keep the vents clear: don't put it in a closed cabinet.

FAQ
Is the XGIMI Aura 2 loud?
No, but audible in quiet scenes. XGIMI states 32 dB, which Coolblue lists as the maximum. During a film the fan is hardly noticeable, especially at a typical seating distance.
Is the Aura 2 quieter than the Aura 3 Max?
That is still open. The Aura 3 Max is much brighter and draws more power, which tends to mean more fan work. Only a measurement under identical conditions will tell.
Which laser TV is quieter?
In the mid-range, the LG CineBeam HU915QE claims 30 dB as its maximum. On paper, more expensive models such as the BenQ V5010i and Formovie Theater Premium state 28 dB. All figures with sources are in our noise database (German).
Verdict
The XGIMI Aura 2 is not a brightness champion, but it comes with something rare: a fan figure stated as a maximum of 32 dB. With lower power draw than brighter triple-laser models, it is a good choice for film nights in a darkened room.
