BenQ releases W1600UST projector for Big-Screen Family Entertainment

BenQ releases W1600UST projector for Big-Screen Family Entertainment

BenQ the unveiled W1600UST with 100” Ambient Light Reflection Screen, a brand-new way for families to enjoy an expansive big-screen entertainment experience untethered by conventional limitations of LED TVs. Powered by ultra short throw projection, W1600UST becomes the aesthetic centerpiece for the modern living room providing all-encompassing digital entertainment in a healthy and eco-conscious manner.

“Our 100” Ambient Light Reflection Screen is custom-matched to complement W1600UST’s ultra short throw projection and unfurl a completely new paradigm of home entertainment.” said Conway Lee, President of BenQ Corporation. “W1600UST overthrows traditional limitations of screen and room size, connectivity and content, installation complexity and ease of use”

Sweeping 100” Cinematic Viewing Experience in Complete Comfort

W1600UST’s 100” Ambient Light Reflection Screen utilizes a light-absorbing material arranged in a special zigzag structure to absorb 93% of ambient light yet preserve brilliant projected picture quality in bright living room settings. In addition to cutting glare from environmental lighting, W1600UST’s reflected projection images are safer for viewers’ eyes than direct emissive light from LED TVs that contain hazardous blue light and fatigue-inducing flicker.

Designed to fit perfectly into typically sized living rooms and family rooms, W1600UST provides a comfortable viewing angle accommodating its grand 100” screen seated just 3.5 to 4 meters away. Far surpassing real-world LED TV screen sizes, W1600UST delivers a healthy, comfortable, and full 100” widescreen performance at realistic mainstream pricing.

Elegantly Engineered Focal Point for Home Entertainment

Equipped with Total Inner Reflection technology to protect users’ eyes from the projection beam, W1600UST produces a supersized 100” image from just inches away from the screen. Requiring no complicated installation or cable runs, the beautifully modern W1600UST can be placed simply on a cabinet just below the screen to blend seamlessly into any upscale décor. Its ultra short throw range allows families to enjoy each other’s company comfortably without concern for casting shadows on the pristine image, with every spectacular Full HD detail crisply rendered by W1600UST’s premium quality Ricoh optical lenses.

Universal Compatibility and Simple Operation
Featuring multiple HDMI ports, AV inputs, and MHL capability, W1600UST becomes an instant multimedia center for source devices including Blu-rays, game consoles, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. W1600ST instantly turns on whenever a digital HDMI or analog VGA source is detected, making it a familiar everyday entertainment hub for educational videos, movies, and even video games.

When a source is not detected, W1600UST powers down as part of BenQ exclusive SmartEco Technology, which works to conserve the environment as well as family budgets while simultaneously delivering uncompromised brightness, exquisite picture quality, optimized lamp life with reduced lamp usage.

Powered by ultimately durable Digital Light Processing, the 2015 Academy Award of Merit Oscar winning technology used in 90% of the world’s digital cinemas, W1600UST delivers long-lasting DLP picture quality with precise colors and razor-sharp clarity coupled with a maintenance-free LED light source .

I have been opting getting a Viewsonic-PJD5150 projector for family & friends outdoor movie night endeavors but perhaps if this one is reasonable in price, I would want to get it. What do you think other Gurus? Any recommendations & experience would be appreciated.

No technical specifications? Like brightness in lumens. Usually they are not announced when they are not very good. Projector must produce 2500 lumens for 100" screen in order to get good quality, especially if it is not completely dark or window blinders are leaking light.

There are plenty of Internet resources, to calculate minimum requirements:
http://www.projectorpeople.com/resources/lumen-guide.asp

You have to know screen size, position and distance to projector first. "Outdoor" projector is interesting case, since you have to take into account sunset time and how bright and close street lights are. If your projector is too weak for the screen then you will have to take into account full moon when planing a party :). Also depends if you are planing to show 3D content, which needs to nearly double brightness. All 3D theatres, I've been, except IMAX, completely ruined 3D with greed, because they saved money on brightness. Then, there is a noise issue, because cities have penalties if you exceed 40-80 decibels over a period of 10-15 minutes on residential properties. Do you want to go wireless or use higher quality, comfortable headphones with headphone amplifier like Behringer PowerPlay HA8000. Depends how much you are planing to spend. $1 or 1 billion dollars on diamond encrusted projector, made of pure platinum which comes with its own private island in Maldives :). Google is your friend.

Viewsonic-PJD5150 have native SVGA 800 x 600 resolution, which is 4:3 aspect ratio. Not good for modern movies with wider than 16:9 aspect ratio. Black bars and resizing to non standard resolution will result in bad quality. You can find Full HD (1920x1080) projectors with similar price and brightness (3000+ lumens). Make sure projector is recent model, because DLP technology (like mirrors used inside) is changing too: http://cdn.avsforum.com/3/3b/3baf7c5b_vbattach84153.jpeg
