Home theatre projectors are one of my favourite technologies. I love going to the movies. Projectors bring that experience into your home to enjoy whenever you want. You can choose to mount it to create a designated theatre room, or you can keep it mobile so one day it’s in the living room for a movie, the next day in the basement for gaming, or in the kids room for a sleep over. Find out for yourself; enter this contest and you might win the amazing BenQ Cinehome 4K UHD HDR home theatre projector.
How amazing is the BenQ 4K projector
This is probably something that many people are wondering. We asked Erin Lawrence, Editor of Home Theatre on the blog and also a veteran of television news with CTV in Calgary, to try this projector and give us her honest opinion.
(NOTE: whenever we send out products for review we expect the writers to give their honest opinion so our customers know what to expect when they get the product to their home.)
In her written review and video review, Erin highly endorsed this projector. Here are some of the highlights of her review:
- The picture was amazing, despite her not having a white wall or a projection screen as a backdrop. (She actually projected it onto a blue wall and still she thought the image was great!)
- The image was bright, clear and showed accurate, crisp colours, even when the room was brightly lit.
- The fan (something that used to drive me crazy on an older projector I once had in my home) was barely noticeable and did not take away from the enjoyment of using this projector.
She also pointed out some of the things that people will consider adding to their home to make the experience even better.
How would you improve your own home theatre experience
Okay so let’s just suppose that you were the winner of this contest. Picture that! Where will you place it in your home? Would you mount it on the ceiling, or keep it mobile so you can move it from room to room?
Importantly, what technology would you need to make the home theatre experience truly complete? I’m not talking about a popcorn maker: that’s a given! Would you be looking to add a projection screen, or would you just choose a white wall (or paint a wall white for this best results). Would you look at getting a surround sound or ATMOS system ?Erin said that the sound from the projector is okay, but your home theatre would be much better with great home theatre audio. Would you add a 4K blu-ray player and start collecting a library of 4K movies to show on this 4K projector?
There are so many possibilities, and I didn’t even talk about home theatre seating. What would you consider adding to your home if you win this amazing projector?

I would buy extra seating so that we can watch movies with at least 10 other people!
I would add a popcorn maker
I would add a projection screen and bluetooth speakers to create a surround sound system.
With the perfect basement wall in mind (once I fill in some holes and gives it a fresh coat of paint), I’d add surround sound and move some furniture around, creating a great place for movies, movies and more movies (…and sports).
I would definitely add a 4K bluray player and a collection of 4K dvds
Thanks!
Popcorn machine, my kids would love having a movie night at home.
Speakers, remote light control, projection screen, Wii U Console, Nintendo Switch Console, CPU, laptop, hdmi cables, TV box, and more
Our house really is probably too small to full enjoy this now, so I think the #1 thing we’d need is a new home!
Haha– since that’s not really in the cards at the moment, we’ll need a small surround sound system and a new blu-ray player for our den. Maybe some new curtains and new paint on the walls in that room. And a bigger coffee table for drinks and snacks.
Bluetooth speakers, so I can improve sound quality, while keeping it mobile.
To make the home theater experience , a projection screen would need to be added to the theater room. However the room where it would be going gets a lot of natural light. Some type of window covering would be needed to keep the light off the screen , ensuring that all viewing angles are perfect. The last thing that I would add to complete the room is family whats movie night without the ones we love the most.
I would have add a popcorn maker, because no movie is can be watched without popcorn, and then add the surround sound to make it perfect
A Seymour screen!
First of all a good theatre room needs good mood control so I would get some smart led bulbs to be able to change the color to one that suited the movie and as it is in projection room the brightness set to a minimum. secondly I’d go with surround sound speakers probably bluetooth as well as to not need any wires going everywhere.
My dream is to upgrade my 5.2.2 Dolby Atmos setup with a 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos using a Denon AVR-6400h receiver! A dbox couch/chairs or buttkickers to to shake things up even more!!!
