Count on BenQ projectors to bring magic to your home entertainment experience. Whether you like drama, comedy, action, or fantasy, these projectors provide a larger-than-life way to enjoy your favourite content. From that empty wall in your living room to the ceiling above your bed, I love the magic in how they can transform a plain, flat space into a visual escape. In this contest, I feature some of the BenQ’s home theatre and portable projectors that we previously reviewed on the blog; read on and enter for a chance to win one.

BenQ home theatre projectors

Love the movie theatre experience? Why not bring it to the comforts of your own home? The BenQ HT4550i and BenQ TK860i are the projectors cinephiles would love. Rendering movies in cinematic quality, these home theatre projectors are perfect for home theatre rooms. For me, when it comes to watching the best movies, nothing beats a giant screen. There’s something about the immersive quality that draws you in, as it fills up any room.

The BenQ HT4550i and BenQ TK860i feature technologies that enhance the image quality, from resolution, to brightness, contrast, and colour. These projectors are 4K UHD projectors with over 3,000 ANSI lumens.

Now, a good home theatre projector requires at least 1080p resolution and 2,000 ANSI lumens. With these exceeding the minimum requirement, they offer superior clarity and brightness. If you enjoy watching during the day, the TK860i might be a better option for you. With 3,300 ANSI lumens, it has higher brightness level that can withstand most bright lighting conditions.

The HT4550i and TK860i come with the HDR-PRO technology that enhances the dark and bright areas of the image, so you see details in high definition and with deep contrast. CinematicColor evokes the true emotions with vividly accurate colours.

Ready for an ultra immersive gaming?

High-definition games look better using ultra-high definition projectors like the BenQ HT4550i and BenQ TK860i. These projectors have an input lag of 17.9ms at 4K/60Hz, lower than most TVs with dedicated gaming mode that reduce lag up to 20ms, so these projectors offer a much speedier gameplay.

Frankly, I enjoy movies more than video games for my home entertainment. Watching my favourite films projected on a huge screen or wall is already a thrilling experience. I can only imagine how much more it is for content as interactive as video games.

BenQ portable projectors

If you’re looking for a projector that you can take anywhere, consider the BenQ GV30 and BenQ GV11 portable projectors as your perfect companion. These projectors are versatile. Circular in design, they can tilt 135 degrees on its magnetic stand so you can project it either to your wall or ceiling. They run on battery; you don’t need to plug them in to a power source to play most full-length movie without interruption.

The BenQ GV30 features 720p HD resolution, with 300 ANSI lumens of brightness, while the BenQ GV11 is 480p with 200 ANSI lumens. Connect the certified Android TV dongle to the projector, to access content from some of your favourite subscription-based streaming services. They’re suitable for movie nights or for catching up with your favourite TV show before bed—you’ll only need a comfortable pillow on your head and a cozy blanket. You can also take these projectors outdoors, for a fun backyard movie get-together.

    The BenQ TK860i has superior brightness and color accuracy so I would be just as entertained as they are. We have listened to the Peaches song probably 100 times, and it would be incredible to play it on a 200 inch screen!

  13. I would like to get the BenQ TK860i because of it’s higher brightness level, as I would use it to outline murals on walls.

  14. The BenQ HT4550i is enough for me, it’ll replace a 2006 vintage wide screen tv on its last legs.
    CinematicColor will help me watch my facourite Christmas movie: A Christmas Story.
    Ralphie never fails to make me laugh.

  15. The first movie I would want to watch with the BenQ HT4550i would be Avatar: The Way of Water, My family and I did not get a chance to see it at the theatre so watching it in our new theatre room with our new amazing BenQ HT4550i projector would certainly do it justice in every way but especially the feature of the advanced colour temperature tuning and CinematicColor super-wide 100% DCI-P3 and 100% Rec.709 colour space for the most authentic colour reproduction features.

  22. Would love the BenQ GV30 to watch all our favourite movies with ease due to its portability to use outdoors – thanks!

  23. I would love to play the new Assassins’ Creed on the BenQ HT4550i. It’s not the type of game that demands a high refresh rate, but the 4k would be a big improvement over my 2010 TV, and the colour quality and tone mapping would make the world stunning.

  24. The BenQ GV30 would help me create the perfect theater experience in my home… by making it easier to distract my little nieces. Since it is portable, projectable in so many places and has auto-focus, we could quickly put it on wherever we are, and they wouldn’t be fighting over the one tablet they normally share.

  25. I’d really like to see the game Control on these projectors. The HDR PRO features would really make the rich colors stand out.

  26. ITS ME, DR. THE BIRDMAN ONCE AGAIN. did you think I would loose face after not being selected as The Chosen One last time?! My birds have been sad because of this. It is fine… We will make it through these turbulent times… Er but once again I find myself deluded, writing in this silly column, trying to amass THE GREATEST TECHNOLOGY! I have chosen the BenQ HT4550i projector. Obviously its superior HDR capabilities will allow me to project realistic canopy ecosystems into my dwelling. Providing my birds with the most dynamic and realistic simulation of their homes as possible. MY BIRDS! MY BIRDS! HOORAY, AT LAST! I wish to give them a piece of home, a life stolen from them while young. In my current form, I am too weak to fly them home. I NEed mORE PoWweEeR! MORe TEcHNOLogy! For now I will support my dear birds with the truest to tone illusions someone else’s money can buy.

  32. The HT4550i model would provide a great theater movie experience for me and my family. I love the feature that it comes with the HDR-PRO technology which will greatly enhance the dark and bright areas of the images which will give us great contrast when we’re watching epic movies on the big screen.

  33. I would prefer the BenQ GV11 as I like the 480p and the tilting feature to use on ceiling or a blank space on the wall.
