BenQ TK710 4K Laser Projector
A bright, fast 4K laser projector for gaming; movie fans in dark rooms may want deeper blacks.
The short version
- Console and PC gamers who want a 100 inch plus screen with low lag
- Living rooms and game rooms with some ambient light
- Buyers who already own a soundbar or receiver to connect over eARC

- You want streaming apps built in
- You plan to rely on the built in speaker
What owners like
- Very low input lag that suits fast competitive games

- Lens shift and zoom make setup easier than many fixed lens models
Common complaints

What it does
A bright 4K laser projector from BenQ built mainly for gaming, with very low input lag at 1080p 240Hz and a sealed 20,000 hour light source.
- Laser light source with no lamp to replace
- 1080p at 240Hz and 4K at 60Hz for fast or detailed gaming
- Dedicated FPS and RPG game modes, including HDR versions
- Optical zoom and vertical lens shift for easier placement
- eARC on one HDMI port to pass Dolby Atmos to a soundbar or receiver
- 3D support listed by BenQ
A strong pick for gamers who want a big, bright picture in a room that is not fully dark, plus a laser light source that needs no lamp changes. The trade-offs are gray rather than deep blacks for movie nights, a single mono speaker and no built in streaming apps.
