Hisense’s Vidda brand has announced an extremely powerful new home projector based on a new MCL39 laser light source to deliver increased brightness and superior colour performance. The Vidda C3 Ultra builds on the success of the C2 series Tri-Chroma projectors that launched in October, and they’re available in China now. However, with the C2 projectors debuting in China last year ahead of a global rollout, it’s likely that the C3 Ultra will also become available in other markets soon.

Apple’s premium TV streaming box, the Apple TV 4K, has been ranked as the number one device of its kind in terms of user privacy, with a report noting that it doesn’t keep track of everything users watch, unlike most others.
