Conclusion​

Product	PROS AND CONS​
BenQ TK700​	Pros • Excellent image and color quality, comparable to OLED • Super bright, performs well even in full daylight • Great for gaming with awesome response time and vivid picture • Sufficiently dark blacks in HDR modes, with vibrant colors • No noticeable blurriness or latency in gameplay • Reliable performance after extended use (1400+ hours) • Good value for money Cons • May not work well in certain room setups, particularly with low ceilings or ceiling fans • Not the best choice for dedicated cinema viewing if deep blacks are a priority • Keystone correction disabled in fast mode, which could be a limitation for some setups Overall Impression This projector stands out for its versatility, particularly excelling in gaming while still providing a solid experience for movies.

Overall Impression: The BenQ HT2050 is a solid choice for those seeking a high-quality projector without delving into the top-tier price range. It delivers impressive performance, particularly in dark settings, and offers essential features like 1080P resolution and a self-powered USB outlet.
