10 premium screens
Hefei
There are 10 premium screens in Hefei, across Dolby Cinema, IMAX and China Film Giant Screen. The biggest picture is at Hefei Baolifeng Wanda — 243 m² of lit screen, with almost nothing in it against Hefei Swan Lake Wanda & IMAX.
No room here can show the full 1.43:1 IMAX frame. Every screen in Hefei crops to 1.90 or wider, so a film shot with IMAX cameras will be missing about a quarter of its picture wherever you see it.
Ranked
Scored on the picture each room actually lights, not the fabric it is painted on. A tilde means the projector rests on a single dated source.
