PixelFLEX FLEXUltra XT 1.9 SMD vs Planar CLI1.9-F

1.9 mm against 1.9 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

Side-by-side specifications, then the same wall built from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs rather than in marketing copy.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile: 7.90 × 4.45 m and 8.00 × 4.50 m respectively.

What the numbers say

PixelFLEX FLEXUltra XT 1.9 SMD resolves finer: 277,008 pixels per square metre against 262,144 for Planar CLI1.9-F, 6% more. On a 8 m wide wall that is 4,160 px across versus 4,096 px.
Planar CLI1.9-F is the lighter rig: 17 kg/m² against 30 kg/m². Across this wall that is 411 kg of difference, 819 kg versus 1,230 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
Planar CLI1.9-F draws more: 1200 W/m² against 500 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 17.6 kW versus 43.2 kW, and 7 versus 16 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
Data is lighter on PixelFLEX FLEXUltra XT 1.9 SMD: 26 runs against 32, at 9 and 7 panels per port respectively (60 Hz, 8-bit, ports loaded to 80%). Fewer runs means fewer home runs to pull and fewer processor ports to find.
Different cabinet formats: 608 × 342 mm against 500 × 500 mm, so 169 tiles versus 144 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
Estimated truck space: 6.5 m for Planar CLI1.9-F against 7.3 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
