benq home theatre projector 4kHome 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:

  1. 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!)
  2. The image was bright, clear and showed accurate, crisp colours, even when the room was brightly lit.
  3. 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?

  1. I would add a Dolby Atmos sound system and a pull down screen! I’ve been wanting to setup a large screen theater in my home for years!

  2. If I won this, I would definitely want to setup my basement with theatre seating for the most realistic home theatre experience!

  3. Would definitely need to add a projection screen on account of having zero white wall space! This would take Netflix binging to the next level.

  4. We are obsessed with movies. If I won this we would create a movie room. We would definitely mount it to the ceiling add some comfortable reclining chairs. This would be amazing!

  5. I would definitely add the 4K Blu-Ray Player and start building a library of DVDs to show. Talk about a great way to get the grandkids to visit!

  6. While this would be a great addition to our living room with the comfy couches we bought last year..this would actually be best used for Halloween in order to project spooky images/video onto a white sheet covering our window for the viewing pleasure of those who stop by our house. We go all out at Halloween with a graveyard in our front yard complete with coffins we made from pallets and lots of lights, ghosts and goblins, etc. We have long wanted a really good projector so we can add this extra element.

  7. If I won a 4K projector, I would want to get a great quality screen to make the best picture possible. I would also want a ceiling mount for a nice clean installation, and new more comfortable couch for movie and gaming nights with friends. Some smart lighting to dim room would also be great.

  8. I have heard a lot about BenQ projectors. This would fit in well in my media room……I would update the couch

  9. Smart lightings/switch
    Powerful wireless sound bars and sub
    All in one remote control
    HDMI switch
    Streaming box/device

  10. I have seen outdoor family movie nights on Pinterest. This projector would be KEY to a this event.
    Would be great for the grandkids. Love it. Thanks for the chance!

  11. Ok so a projector is great. But you would want a popcorn maker and a whole bunch of popcorn. And of course a comfy couch. And a sound system.

  12. Thonet and Vander speakers with a 4k smart tv box to stream all my 4k movies with, while my brothers using my computer.

  13. Would have to add a high quality screen. And then an Atmos setup, UHD blurays with Atmos or DTS:X are incredible.

  14. A good player with a nice collection of 4K HDR movies is a must, of course, but I believe a good Home Theater receiver with powerful and balanced speakers, and a good projection screen are essentials. That’s what I would add to this amazing prize!

  15. If i did win this amazing projector, i would invest in some amazing smart lighting like the nanoleafs for example that i keep seeing on Bestbuy’s website that look really cool, buy a bunch and create a surreal lighting experience for my man-cave.

  16. if i win this projector i’ll add recliner seats, high quality sound system, popcorn at home, invite my good friends/family & of-course gf 😉 to enjoy the important games, movies. What more do you need?

  17. If I won this BenQ 4K projector I would add a Dolby Atmos surround system and a Xbox one x and of course lots of popcorn!!!

  18. I would love to get surround sound for my Living room and a new sectional for all our friends and family to enjoy.

  19. if i won i would love to add projector screen with dolby surround sound system with at least 1100 watt output, cinema chairs ,lots of dvds of space documentaries to my collection,philips hue lighting setup to this projector room and soda plus popcorn maker as i would love to enjoy soda and popcorn while watching documentaries on the screen and love to take suggestions to enhance my idea to set up mini theatre from best buy representative.

  20. I would keep things portable and use a white sheet as a screen so maybe it could be used outside in the summer. I would need surround sound for a great sound.

  21. I would get a surround sounds system with Dolby Atmos speakers installed from the ceiling. I would then get a projection screen for best picture. I would then get the Xbox One X so I can watch 4k Blu-rays and play games on the projector as well!

  22. I would start with the room downstairs – paint a wall white – get surround sound – some very comfy, lie around style movie furniture, a mini fridge (drinks) and a pop corn machine. Put some light guards over the windows in that room and BLAMMO a movie room worthy of bragging!!

    *sigh* Wonderful.

  23. It would allow us the opportunity to add a tv projection room in our basement for our children and grandchildren.

  24. If I won, I would need a proper screen and a sectional couch so I could fit more friends in to watch movies!

  25. First off, you need somewhere to plant your butt while you enjoy this viewing experience so I would add a big cozy sofa couch, one that was so “sink-inable” and wonderful that it would be dad approved at Thanksgiving and he would grunt and groan as he tried to get out (I mean, whose dad doesn’t do this?!) I would then add a wonderful long thin (but tall) table to stand behind the sofa so food and drink would never be out of reach. As bum and stomach are taken care of for this experience, next would be a great surround sound system to push that immersion even further and really let you get lost in the movie I am watching. The room would also need blackout curtains, and a little kitchenette so I would never have to leave my amazing movie cave!

  26. If I won a BenQ Projector I would upgrade from our 32″ tv in our basement and surprise my husband and add a sound bar at least. We have had a couple rough years with little work and two kids that have required being at the childrens hospital every week for 84 weeks which is 2 hours away from us. He deserves a break.
