Projectors have been around for many years, yet I don’t think they get the love they deserve! They are more versatile than a television, can display everything from movies to presentations on a huge range of surfaces, and they enable to project a huge range of image sizes. Find out for yourself: enter to win one of four BenQ projectors from BenQ and Best Buy.
Many years ago, when my children were younger, I bought a projector to use as the main display in my basement home theatre. I was shocked that it never stayed in one place: my wife would move it to the bedroom to watch a movie when she was sick in bed, my kids would move it to their bedrooms for sleepovers, and I even took it to work a couple times for presentations. That’s something you certainly can’t say about a television. Rarely a day went by that it was not used for movies, gaming, work and more.
What are some of the great features found in BenQ projectors
Get one of the newest projectors in your home from BenQ and you’ll be amazed at how much you’ll use it. The prizes that we are giving away in this contest, two BenQ SVGA DLP Data Projectors (MS517EH) and two BenQ 1080p DLP Home Theatre Projectors (W1090) were reviewed here on the blog by Erin Lawrence: read her review and you’ll learn why she was “blown away.”
Here are some of the features that impressed her about both projectors:
- virtually no set up required; plug it in and it is ready to go
- projected a massive image with amazing clarity
- bright display even in a brightly lit room
… and specifically about the W1090 (which is designed for home theatres)
- automatically found the input source including Chromecast
- picture was remarkable: “this picture rivaled any TV”
- internal 10W speaker provides fuller sound than the data projector
Which of these features stands out for you as the best? Will you use it mostly for work, for streaming movies … maybe for gaming! Enter now and you may get to find out for yourself how great BenQ projectors are.

I’d probably use this projector the most at home. I’d have movie nights outside in my backyard.
I like the fact that it’s extremely portable-what a great feature!
I would put this in the living/ family room and my favourite feature is the BenQ projector because of the easy set up!
My favourite thing about it is that its pretty much just plug and go
I’d use it most outside. It’d be great to watch a movie on a dark night outside with it. Otherwise It’d be in my living room
We would use this in the family room, bit I’d love to try this outside and have a drive in movie night with the kids.
I love the fact that there’s very little set up.
picture was remarkable: “this picture rivaled any TV” and I would use it at home
I love the idea of being able to pick it up and go somewhere else so easily.
I love that you can just plug it in and it’s ready to use!!
As for how I would use one of these amazing devices, I think the main use would be for movie nights. Either in the living room or during the warmer weather out in the backyard while sitting on the deck.
I would use this most in the living room!
My favourite feature would be the ease of setting up the amazing picture. Gone are the days of needing a hour before a meeting or viewing party to get the projector set up, connected and warmed up.
I love the bright display even in lit up rooms! That is awesome!
I would put the BenQ projector in many places. Mostly in our theater room though. I would also use it at school as a projector in the classroom for my presentations.
I think the best feature of the BenQ is the easy installation that allows you to move it with ease.
We were looking for a way to eliminate the need for a TV and DVD in most rooms. This would definitely be it. I want less cords !!
It looks so easy to use, as a grandmother, I really need easy. I would love to put very old family picture on it. Pictures of my mother, and my children and especially the wonderful little grandchildren.
I would useit in our new family room we are redoing. The best feature of the BenQ projector is the easy set up.
The best feature of the BenQ SVGA DLP Data Projector? Hard to say; – there are so many! But if I had to pick one, I’d say the “Eco blank mode” for temporarily blanking the projection. It makes ones overall presentation that more professional, if you can easily manage the technology used to display your ideas…
My family would use the BenQ projector at my parent’s cottage; – would be great for sharing photos of years gone by!
I would love to use it for my own home theater!
If I were to win I would use it in my studio. I’m currently using an old, old, old projector to do scans of my drawings and then projecting them onto larger paper surfaces for outline sketches for eventual paintings. A good quality projector would allow me to work in better light and have a sharper finished product. Not the most typical use but that’s what I’d do with it.
I would love to be able to use this in my living room. We have a rather large house so this would compliment our space very well!
This will be used in my TV/home theater room to replace my aging plasma
This: “projected a massive image with amazing clarity”
I like the plug & play, virtually no set up, picture quality is also a big plus
Projector would get most use in the rec room
I would definitely use this projector many places: meetings, movie screenings at different local halls/churches/etc, dances at my kids school, in my living room, etc….. mostly it would be used in the living room though 🙂
thanks for the opportunity!
Which of the features of BenQ projectors is your favourite?
Where do I start? Virtually no set up – which is awesome because I suck at setting things up and the fact that it automatically finds the input source for you….that’s sweet!
I would use the projector in my living room, like a theater.
I like the fact that there is virtually no setup needed to use the projectors – easy access!
This is an amazing projector, would use it at home with the family.
Thanks for the chance.
I would use the projector in our family/rec room as rhis is where we spend time together
internal 10W speaker is a nice touch
I will use the projector the most in the living room.
My favourite feature of the BenQ projectors is that you can plug it in and it is ready to go.
I like that it is virtually no set up required; plug it in and it is ready to go
I love the fact that you can hook it up so easily which would make it so awesome for our outside movie nights for the nieghbourhood!
The plug-and-play functionality, internal speaker and clear picture make this a must have for multimedia enthusiasts!
I would use the Benq projector at home for some awesome movie nights!
If bestbuy sells cables and chromecast. I would guarantee I’d buy them for this. Wirelessy streaming from my PC to the projector and using my phone as a remote would be stellar.
I would slap this thing dead centre of my living room to replace a tv that is about 20 years too old to be used in 2017.
The bright lighting. I’ve used far too many projectors that are great in total blackness but are completely washed out even in dim lighting.
It looks like something I could really set up all by myself! I love that it is portable too! Neat o 🙂
My favourite feature of the BenQ projectors is plug it in and it is ready to go.
there is hardly any setup!
I really like that it requires hardly any setup. I don’t like figuring out tricky things.
We would use this the most in our living room for a large viewing area and for everyone to come and watch!!
My favorite option is that you can virtually no set up required; plug it in and it is ready to go
I would use it in our family room because the picture quality of the BenQ projector rivals any T.V. screen!
