Projectors serve a variety of purposes in both your personal and professional life. Whether delivering a presentation, having friends over to watch a basketball game, or simply playing an old Charlie Chaplin movie against the backdrop of a summer evening shindig, these BenQ projectors will help you communicate your message effectively, create a true home theatre for group enjoyment, or set the perfect ambiance for your soirees and get-togethers. Technologically advanced and functionally versatile, keeping a projector on hand will prove to be one of the best tech acquisition decisions you’ve made. But don’t take my word for it. Read on, see for yourself, and enter this contest for a chance to win your own BenQ HT1070A Home Cinema Projector or MW526AE Digital Projector.

Modern BenQ projectors for the home or workplace

You remember those old bulky, noisy, projectors from the past. The kind your 3rd grade teacher would use to show your class the pyramids for a history lesson. Perhaps your boring Aunt Betty used one to display countless albums and home movies of the yearly vacation to who-knows-where. Yeah, you remember those projectors. They were big and clunky, project with poor image quality, and your teacher or aunt always seemed to experience technical difficulties with them while you waited for the tedious session to end. Much like the rest of tech we now enjoy, from smartphones to televisions, projectors have evolved. They are now compact and impressively powerful.

We sent two models in the BenQ line of projectors to a Canadian blogger for honest reviews. The BenQ HT1070A Home Cinema Projector is designed for the home, while the BenQ MW526AE Digital Projector was made for professional use, but the two can be used interchangeably, and will not disappoint in either domain.

Read Darren Blakeborough’s separate reviews of each unit. Darren found that the HT1070A Home Cinema Projector showcases a crisp, clear 1080p HD image, a massive screen size, and awesome colour reproduction thanks to CinematicColor technology.

As for the MW526 Digital Projector, the reviewer was impressed with how lightweight and compact the unit was, the solid 15000:1 contrast ratio, and how vivid text appears on-screen.

Both projectors offer the freedom to customize your screen size anywhere from 60″ to 300″, and feature an array of inputs and outputs, including HDMI. Show off the content you love: connect a streaming device, television signal, computer, and more. Use the built-in speakers or connect to your home theatre system for a full audio experience. Project on a white wall (a light background of almost any kind will do nicely), or add your own projection screen to really enhance the experience.

  8. Reclining sofa ivory bonded leather. Beautiful chair looks real comfy and room for company!

  11. A projection screen like the
    Elite Screens Spectrum 100-Inch 16:9 Electric Projection Screen would be the perfect accessory.

  22. EluneVision Reference Studio 100″ Fixed-Frame Projection Screen Would be great for indoors but I would need a second projector screen for outdoors like the Elite Screens Yard Master Series 100″ 16:9 Portable Outdoor Projector Screen. This is so cool I have goose bumps looking at the outdoor screens.

  28. I would totally want the Valencia Syracuse Premium Top Grain 9000 Leather Power Recliner LED Lighting Home Theater Seating 4-Seat to go with the projector! (Especially since our couch is in desperate need of replacement). Thanks for the opportunity!

  31. A nice sound bar (Bose Solo) would do wonders to enhance the experience. I love seeing movies in the theatre because of the amazing sound and big screens, therefore this would be a great addition!

  33. Open Air Cinema to host outdoor movies; watching a movie in the backyard is a great way to entertain the family and also getting to know your neighbours better. An ideal match along with the BenQ HT1070A Home Cinema Projector is an Elite Screens Spectrum 100-Inch 16:9 Electric Projection Screen (Web Code: 10189779) to project the movie onto and for listening a pair of Polk Audio Atrium 6 5.25″ 100-Watt 2-Way Outdoor Speaker (Web Code: 10583463). Enjoy the movie.

  34. Without good sound you’re missing half the sensation, so a good 7.1 sound system is a must with a good projector. Really get that theatre sensation.

  35. To go with the projector, i would ask for new speakers and a projector screen so i could watch movies on a big screen with all my family. Also i would ask for a hole collection of comedy and action films.

  36. I would love to get a projection screen and speakers to be able to have the full movie experience at home!

  37. Would definitely want a projection screen to go with a projector because my walls are too textured.

  45. This Starship 3-Seat Leather Power Recliner Home Theatre Seating with Console would fit my living room setup perfectly! And it would definitely pair well with a new projector. When I was in college me and a buddy almost bought a sofa that had a fridge built in, been keen on the idea ever since.
