Benq W2720i
Awards
Overview
The BenQ W2720i is a 4K LED projector designed to deliver an immersive cinematic experience at home. As the successor to the W2700 and W2710 models, it brings significant improvements in image quality, smart features, and versatility.
Stunning 4K Image in Your Living Room
The W2720i uses DLP technology with a 0.47” DMD chip and XPR processing to project images in 4K UHD resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels). Its 4-LED light source provides 2500 ANSI lumens of brightness, ensuring vivid and detailed images even in moderately lit environments.
The projector covers 90% of the DCI-P3 color space and 98% of Rec.709, guaranteeing rich and accurate colors. HDR-PRO technology supports HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG formats, dynamically optimizing contrast and brightness for each scene. With a dynamic contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1, the W2720i delivers deep blacks and brilliant whites.
Artificial Intelligence Enhancing Your Viewing Experience
One of the major innovations of the W2720i is its AI Cinema mode. This feature uses artificial intelligence to automatically optimize the image based on ambient conditions and the projected content. The projector analyzes room brightness in real-time and adjusts image settings to ensure the best possible visual quality without manual intervention.
Additionally, the W2720i includes a Filmmaker mode that preserves the artistic intent of directors by disabling certain image processing features. This ensures faithful reproduction of films as they were meant to be seen on the big screen.
Flexible Installation for Any Space
The W2720i offers great installation flexibility with its 1.3x optical zoom and a throw ratio ranging from 1.0:1 to 1.3:1. It can project a 120-inch image from just 2.7 meters away, making it suitable for most living room setups.
The projector is equipped with a vertical lens shift of ±5%, allowing you to adjust the image position without moving the device. Automatic keystone correction and corner adjustment features make it easy to perfectly align the image on the screen.
A Complete Entertainment Hub
The W2720i goes beyond simple projection by integrating an Android TV system via an included dongle. This feature provides access to a wide range of streaming apps like Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube, transforming the projector into a true entertainment platform.
Connectivity is generous, with three HDMI 2.1 inputs compatible with HDCP 2.3, including one supporting 4K at 120 Hz for gaming. The projector also offers advanced audio options with an eARC output for transmitting high-resolution audio formats like Dolby Atmos.
Gaming Performance and Low Latency
Gamers will appreciate the W2720i’s gaming capabilities. With an input lag of just 17 ms in 4K at 60 Hz, the projector delivers excellent responsiveness for action-packed games. It supports high refresh rates, up to 120 Hz in 4K and 240 Hz in Full HD, ensuring optimal smoothness for fast-paced gaming.
Durable and Eco-Friendly LED Technology
The W2720i uses an LED light source with a lifespan of up to 30,000 hours. This technology offers several advantages over traditional lamps: longer lifespan, more stable colors over time, and the absence of mercury, making it a more eco-friendly option. Additionally, LEDs allow for instant on/off functionality, with no warm-up or cool-down time required.
What the press says
Over the years and through generations of home cinema projectors that I’ve had the opportunity to test, I’ve observed the qualitative evolution of BenQ devices. The out-of-the-box color accuracy is now a constant, and as a professional calibrator, I particularly appreciate the wealth of options available in the menus of their front projectors. These tools allow for fine-tuning adjustments with a precision that meets the expectations of image purists.
