BenQ TK850i True 4K HDR-PRO Smart Home Entertainment Projector powered by Android TV | 3000 Lumens | 98% Rec.709 | Lens shift & Keystone for Easy Setup | 3D Projector for Binge Watchers and Sports

Great projector at a nice price point. No complaints at all.

Major set back is 3D. Yes it supports 3D but if you have ripped all your blue Ray to USB drive and have it in half SBS, you cant play it using media reader as the aspect ratio cannot be adjusted. If you have roku and use roku media reader, the projector wont detect 3D content and the button will be grayed out and no way to turn it on. If you try from remote - direct 3D, it will switch back to 2D and its a big no go. Benq cheap projectors allow you to use 3D manually but this one work. Have to return as its no go for me. Will look for laser projector at this price point.

So.. my Epson 5350 started having this screaming alarm when i would put in a new bulb.. decided to get a 4k.. first got the cheap epson (cant recall model but you cant get a good focus over the whole screen, sent it back) The Benq has a great picture... zero complaints.. Cept the fan is very loud.. 12-21-21 So.. i have a stuck pixel, luckily its near the edge on the right but its there and annoys me..i have tried Pixel fixers and they didnt help..This is easily the worst projector i have ever owned. I own 3 mitsubishis going back over 10 years and all 3 still work perfectly. BENQs picture quality doesnt matter if they make them loud and with dead pixels. I wish i had sent this back when i could have... DO NOT BUY ONE! So..

I really wanted to love this projector (ordered by my wife from Projector People). Really wish I could have seen the HDR in action, rather than the blocky, yellow-cast images (clearly not working right). After much research, I am inclined to believe my HDR problems were related to the 1.0.3 firmware (AVSForums had mentions of this problem). Ill never know for certain because I was also unable to update either of the projectors I received, neither the original, nor the replacement sent by BenQ. This is perhaps a problem with my laptop? I tried EVERYTHING. Either way, a projector should work properly out of the box; that falls on BenQ. HDR aside, the 4K image is sharp and smooth. SDR colors are rich and accurate. The PJ isnt super bright, but the blacks easily smoke my old W1070 (dark movies look way better). Alas, the HDR problems are deal-breaker. If I could have fixed it, I would have kept it. BenQ was unresponsive when I said I needed help. So stay tuned for my upcoming review of an Epson 5050UB.

In 7 months ownership I haven’t had any HDR due to it changing white colors to caution yellow, then about 2 months ago an area in bottom left quadrant got some dead pixels (solid white). The part that final pushed a review is today when it wouldn’t turn on at all! Green lights come on, but no lamp or fans follow. Seems to be a semi common issue with them. I always had it plugged into either a Monster or APC surge protector, and it projects on a 110” silver ticket 4K screen with all appropriate cables to fully enjoy this highly recommended projector. Part 2! Big piece of you know what!!! PERIOD!!! NO QUESTION ASKED!!! So the company did in fact replace the first hunk of junk, and the second just failed too. It has had burnt out pixels almost since the day I got the replacement, and today 06/07/22 I turn it on got zero screen, unplugged it, and the screen is there with about 70 decibel burnt out cooling fan freaking out. COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY!!!!!!! I could if bought a Samsung or LG 75 inch 4K for the price this thing set me back, and I wouldn’t of had to warranty one, and have dead second one. Things work great for a few months then practically self destruct. So now I have a 110” wall mount screen, 120” portable screen, wall/ceiling mount, and mobile adjustable stand that don’t do me now good for anything. Glad I bought a 65” LG C1 Black Friday 2021 for the bedroom it’s better gift games anyways.

Worst electronic part I ever purchased, projector went bad in less than 6 months. Ha F screen is all shaded dark

This review is for the GP500 model. Wow, this is a tremendous projector. I dont think I can ever go back to watching moves on my normal sized TVs. The picture quality is outstanding. The clarity on a huge 125 screen is mind blowing. The color contrast is excellent, bright scenes will make you squint your eyes and the dark scenes are very cinematic looking. The projector still does well even with a little ambient light, but its fully glory is only seen in total darkness. The sound is excellent, surprisingly. I can postpone my need for a sound bar (for now). All the features such as auto focus, auto keystone, etc are very helpful, though not perfect. I found the auto-keystone not working great when the projector is at a long distance and off-center. When the projector is closer it seems to work well. The projector is relatively light and small, so its easy to move around and position. Overall, I am REALLY impressed. I hope this projector will last a long long time. Theres only 2 hdmi ports, which is fine enough, I will end up needing an hdmi switch to hook up more things to this projector though. This projector is also LED, so it should last quite a long time. I will update this review in the future if the projector does not hold up well.

We have been using at-home projection TV for over 25 years, but we had never tried a BenQ. I thought of it as a step up, it cost twice as much as our next most spendy projector. I ordered it ahead instead of another bulb for our Epson, setup was easy and then stuff began to fail. We use a fancy Onkyo amplifier sound system which extracts the most from signals and sources. We enjoy hearing birds flock up in the ceiling / sky. But the Benq strips sound down. How do I know. Well when the BenQ bulb failed so early that I had not stocked a replacement, thinking that was a couple years in the future, I had closeted the old Epson projector and we have not yet agreed on another use, guests or grandkids, so I got it out and replaced the BenQ with the old one and wow it was brighter and the good sound came back. So, now we have new decisions to make, one is to stop believing Amazon ratings. Another, not to count bulb hours until they are achieved. Finally, a three year warranty is not worth anything if the phone number doesnt work.

Great product

Hella dope
