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.
