About this deal

In keeping with the brand’s experience selling gaming monitors, BenQ markets some highly innovative projectors for gaming, including some of the first 4K native resolution 60Hz gaming projector models available. They also offer budget projectors designed for easy setup and portability.

The BenQ TK800 is well-made, has all the connections you’ll need, and sports a solid set of features. It’s easy to set up and simple to operate, making it ideal for periodic use. You’ll get the best image using an actual screen, but a white wall will suffice. On budget projectors, the lamp will usually require replacement before other components have worn out. Typical lamp life ranges from 1,500 hours to 4,000 hours when using eco mode. Setting a projector to maximum brightness may reduce the lifetime of the lamp.

Calculating an Image Size when you know the THROW DISTANCE

BenQ also state that the TK800 has auto HDR optimised colour rendition technology which matches the content to the native capabilities of the projector, to try and give a bright and more colourful image, over normal HD material. However the TK800 will only get close to the HD Rec.709 colour standard and nowhere near the current DCI-P3 gamut being used by Hollywood on UHD Blu-rays and the like within the Rec.2020 container. This means the projector is not wide colour gamut compatible, it will display UHD Blu-ray and other wide colour material in the Rec.709 HD standard. So again, it is worth cutting through some of the marketing to get to the actual performance parameters. Rec.709 done correctly is perfectly fine for this projector and the price point; it can look stunning when done correctly, we just feel BenQ need to be a little clearer on the specifications and less vague with the marketing. On portable projectors, battery life is an additional factor that may influence how long the item lasts. Most portable models use lithium-ion batteries rated for between 500 and 2,000 charge cycles.

Our mission is to empower you to find the product you’re looking for and get exactly the information you need to make the right buying decision.The look of this movie also helps a lot but it seems that the improved lens that the TK800M uses really brings out all the small details on the screen. The image felt slightly softer in the edges compared to the center but the difference is very small and cannot affect the overall amazing quality we got. With Full HD still going strong rest assured that the TK800M will make the best out of your 1080p library. Sport Picture Mode renders realistic skin shades, warm wood tones, and vivid reds with balanced green and blue for stunning big-screen projection of fast-paced indoor sports action on wooden courts. And Sport Sound Mode accentuates the announcer's commentary and clear acoustic details of squeaking sneakers, referee whistles, and scraping skates in an indoor arena. Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be like that. The BenQ TK800 is a great example of the form factor that delivers big screen action for those on a budget, producing an image up to 300” in size that it's as easy to setup as pointing it at a white wall. All you need is a soundbar for the audio and you’re good to go. It’s a product designed for a market that probably doesn’t really fit with your typical AVForums home cinema fan, but it does a decent enough job of what it sets out to do and at a reasonable price point. If we had tested the BenQ as solely a home cinema model for critical movie viewing it wouldn’t score well at all, given that niche set of image quality points it would need to hit, but this isn’t one of those projectors and doesn’t pretend to be.
