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.

  1. I’d love to find a place to set up the EluneVision Reference Studio 115″ Fixed-Frame Projection Screen!

  2. We already have some comfortable recliners so I was looking @ the Elunevision White Manual Projector Screen – 120″ which would fit in nicely with a new set of Speakers & which ever one of those beauties you want to give me.
    Thanks a Bunch!

  3. I think I have the perfect wall for the EluneVision Reference Studio 115″ Fixed-Frame Projection Screen. It would be great no bulky tvs to take up space and a piece of art when no tele is on. It’s a little pricey but hey if you’re gonna dream…

  4. Would be real tempted to get the Starship Genuine Leather Power Motion Recliner Chair. Looks extremely comfy

  5. Hey there, I would sure like to win either the BenQ HT1070A Home Cinema Projector or the MW526AE Digital Projector for my home. I would also like to have a large electric retractable projection screen like the Camp Chef Outdoor Big Screen Silver 144 Projection screen and an awesome surround sound system for the full Home theater Experience!

  6. If I won this projector, I would immediately splurge on a comfy chairlike the Saturn Traditional Leather Gel Power Recliner. I’d just sit for hours on end watching series I’ve yet to see like Westworld, Shark Tank Season 8, and sooo much more. Oh my gosh and having a box of pizza next to me… oh that’s the life.

  7. What else I’d want? the Valencia Power Recliner LED Lighting Home Theater Seating 3-Seater! That would be awesome to immerse ourselves into the theatre experience

  8. I would get a Elite Screens Spectrum AcousticPro UHD 100″ 16:9 Motorized Projector Screen to go along with the projector

  9. I would love to use this on my garage and i would need some new comfy chairs and a small fridge so i dont have to get up for drinks!

  10. I think I’d like some nice speakers! Movies need good sound! Even ‘A Quiet Place’ ! Bose speakers are usually nice 😀

  11. I think the EluneVision Elara 120” 1.2-16:9 Fixed-Frame Projector Screen would complete my dream.

  12. What better accessory to go with a new projector than to go with a new projector screen, EluneVision Reference Studio 115″ Fixed Screen.

  13. I think I’d be mighty comfy watching my new projection tv in a Starship Genuine Leather Power Motion Recliner Chair

    • I would love to have the Starship Genuine Leather Recliner to enhance my comfort watching and enjoying the BenQ projector.

  14. Would like the Southern Enterprises Hemphill Leather Recliner Chair and Ottoman in Brown for relaxation!

  15. Premium speakers and Monster Gold PowerCenter Power Bar, 1.5m (5 ft.) HDMI Cable & Cleaning Kit (GLD 600 UHD-5 CLNKIT)

  16. I’ve already got the sofa that dreams are made of and a set of klipsch R28F tower speakers… so all that I need to turn this baby into the ultimate viewing experience (and make me the most unproductive man in the world) would be the benQ home theatre projector and the elite screens spectrum 100” acoustic pro. It’s motorized to save me from having to move (let’s face it, no one can stand losing the TV remote…) and I would be the coolest kid on the block

  17. While I would love better seating or a sound system, the most important item would of course be a screen for the projector. I would choose the EluneVision Movie Master 144″ Easy-Fold Fixed Projector Screen (EV-MM-144-1.2) as it is big and highly portable.

  18. an outdoor screen would be pretty cool to have at the lake for the drive in kind of feel!! this one would be cool….Elite Screens Yard Master Series 103″ 16:9 Portable Outdoor Projector Screen

  19. I would love the EluneVision Luna 106″ Widescreen Motorized Projection Screen for optimal viewing experience. (It provides a higher contrast and superior black levels in comparison to traditional white screens, while the black borders offer improved perceived brightness and contrast of a projected images).

  20. Hi I would want the Auledio Portable Outdoor Movie Screen to take the show on the road for those outdoor summer events.

  21. I would love to win a home theater projector all you need to go with it is a sick recliner that turns into a bed

  22. Love this contest!! Good morning! I would love to have the Kate Contemporary Bonded Leather Recliner so I can relax in comfort!!!!

  23. I’d love to have that in home movie experience with the Elunevision Luna Electric Projection Screen – 106 – Cinema White!

  24. A projection screen would be the perfect accessory; the Elunevision 100” fixed frame has great reviews.

  25. A large outdoor screen would be an awesome accessory for a projector then we could watch movies out side at the lake or in our back yard.

  26. I would like a Pioneer VSX-933 7.2 Channel Network AV Receiver because I currently don’t have a receiver.

  27. I would like a projection screen like the EluneVision Luna 106″ Widescreen Motorized Projection Screen

  28. A premium projector deserves to be paired with a premium projection screen: the Elunevision White Manual Projector Screen. The audioweave material it’s made with allows for true surround sound to be setup along with it!
