BenQ - TH585

Alternatively, you could get a 142-184 inch screen and mount it at 4.6 meters lol. Also the 585 is a massive step down its only 60Hz :( Don't sacrifice performance for no reason. You can easily ceiling mount this guy or get a larger screen or throw it on a coffee table. It really doesn't make sense to trade functionality over a single extra installation step? The throw ratio is really good on the 685p and the 585 is only minorly better? Save yourself from yourself here man... The screen you linked literally comes in a 150 inch version if you can't ceiling mount it just grab that instead its like 50€ more

Absolutely legit. I own an ancient th585 and it's still insanely good. DMD chip had an issue but BenQ immediately fixed it and I never got an issue again. These things are built strong and sturdy. It will last you quite a few years as long as you change the bulb when recommended and do a very, very, weak dusting at the same time.

My screen is 2.3m x 2.7m. I currently have a benq th585 standard throw which gives a decent picture. Nice brightness. Etc. I'm wanting to upgrade and tossing up between the benq th671st and the optoma gt1080hdr. Ideal mount distance is 2m from screen. Directly infront of that rollerdoor motor. Any suggestions on which would be better suited for me? Looking at the projector calculators I think it's telling me the optoma is about 2m away and the benq is more like 2.8m. If I'm doing it right

I had one for a few weeks, none of the integrated apps were working due to hdcp 2.2. The projector would its self would crash at random times. It finally gave up the ghost like 2.5 weeks in and would just boot loop. If you get lucky and receive one that doesnt crash/bootloop then it is decent for watching movies (dark scenes are very muddled). Gaming sucked and had way too much latency. I just got a BenQ th585 refurbished from BenQ (\~$500) and it blows the HY300 out of the water.

It really depends on applications. I have two Benq projectors. My HT2050A is in my light controlled dedicated theater because it has better color, but I also have a TH585 for my outdoor screen because it's brighter. If your room is dark, go with the HT3560. If it's for outside or a bright room, go with TK860i.

the [BenQ TH585](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=BenQ+TH585&crid=18I4ELFZIN833&sprefix=benq+th585%2Caps%2C333&linkCode=ll2&tag=sedx3d0d-20&linkId=ad630b1ad0e2c8c37633937d0c59bf76&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl) is a great projector. It offers good picture quality, brightness, and a compact design. Consider your needs and budget.

BenQ TH585 would be a good choice since you need a LOT of brightness given your situation.

This 👆.  Check on projectorcentral and see if the throw fits your size. If so it’s a great image and both go on sale for $499 pretty regularly

I would stay away from lifestyle projectors if you want a good black floor. I wouldn't get anything with a 0.23" DMD like the Capsule 3. They do not look 1080p if you have good eyesight. EF-11/EF-12 are really too slow for gaming. Do you have a sound system? If so I would focus on more proper projector models. Plug an Android stick in if you need one. Maybe the Benq TH series?

The BenQ 1080p models tend to be very reliable and look quite good at the price point. They are a fair bit brighter than much of the LED 'portable' competition that is out there that may be similarly priced, like XGimi or JMGO. But, they are lamp based. I might seriously consider the JMGO N1 if available. Not as bright, but a solid state light source and good image quality. 500 lumens in a dark room can handle 110" diagonal just fine. I have been testing with the LG Cinebeam Q recently (about 500 lumens) and it works well on my 110" screen.

I went from cheaper 70inch 4k Samsung to benq 1080p projector I purchased on eBay. Even though the resolution isn’t as good I prefer the projector by a long shot. I love it

I’ve a benq 1080p short thought and it’s solid
