BenQ TH671ST 1080p Short Throw Gaming Projector, 3000 Lumens, Low Input Lag for Gaming, Built-in 5W Speaker

Product Information

Throw Distance. Unlike most short throw projectors, the TH671ST offers a zoom lens, which adds flexibility for positioning the projector to help make setup easy. Simply place the projector at approximately the right distance from the screen, and then fit the image to the screen by adjusting the 1.2x zoom, rather than moving the projector. The range for a 110-inch 16:9 image is roughly 5.5 to 6.7 feet. The BenQ TH671ST Projection Calculator will let you find the throw distance range for the image size you want. calculator, you will see dimension lines that will tell you the height, width, and diagonal measurements of your image.

Those seeking to to improve contrast will want to experiment with the LumiExpert feature. LumiExpert detects the ambient light level and adjusts gamma appropriately for the lighting. You can also turn it off and adjust its setting to make the overall picture a little darker or a little brighter at any given ambient light level. We found that choosing the right setting can significantly increase contrast and the sense of three dimensionality in dark scenes. the graphical representation of a projector in the middle of the calculator, you will see dimension lines that will tell you the Throw Distance Light Mode contains the four lamp levels. Normal is brightest followed by Eco which cuts output by about 35%. SmartEco throttles brightness and roughly doubles static contrast with occasionally visible image pumping. LampSave also varies output and extends lamp life to a claimed 15,000 hours. Lens offset. The lens offset for the TH671ST is designed for placement on a low table, with the bottom edge of the image falling somewhere between the lens centerline and up to 5% of the image height above it. For example, with a 100-inch high image the bottom edge would be anywhere between even with the lens centerline and 5 inches above it. The bottom edge of the image on our test unit was about 4% of the image height above the centerline, which is within typical sample-to-sample variation. Perfectly Long Lasting Picture Quality with DLP Projection Technology Digital Light Processing (DLP), awarded 2015 Academy Award of Merit (Oscar statuette), is the leading projection technology used in 90% of world’s digital cinemas and 100% of IMAX theaters. With DLP dominating the worldwide projector market with over 50% share, BenQ is today the #1 bestselling DLP.Brightness is another key feature. We measured the TH671ST at a little over 2,600 ANSI lumens, which is enough to light up a 130-inch 1.0-gain screen in moderately bright ambient light. Even its video optimized setting, at a measured 1,887 lumens, is bright enough at the same light level for a 110-inch 1.0-gain screen or a 120-inch 1.2 gain screen. Treat your eyes to the brilliance of TH671ST’s Full HD 1080p visuals, with amazing detail clarity and sharpness. Brightness Uniformity. The test unit's brightness uniformity is 63%. Somewhat surprisingly—because short throw projectors tend to have problems maintaining uniform brightness—this is actually a better than typical result for standard throw home theater projectors in this price range. Prices valid in stores (all including VAT) until close of business on 27th November 2023. (Some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online.) With video optimized settings, the TH671ST can light up a 120-inch 1.2-gain screen in moderately bright ambient light using full power, or a 100-inch 1.2-gain screen in Economic mode. And the LumiExpert feature can adjust gamma automatically for the current ambient light level, with a dedicated menu button on the remote so you can easily tweak its effect to taste.

Passengers is one of the more digitally-scrubbed titles I’ve seen recently. It’s a great looking disc and it shone on the BenQ. Much of the palette is metallic but the warm tones of the ship’s bar and character’s skin looked just right, natural and properly saturated. Color accuracy is still important even in the age of new technology and the TH671ST gets it right, with or without calibration. I switched to an unadjusted mode just to see and the difference was small. While I always recommend going for the highest possible quality, those who don’t chose to calibrate won’t be disappointed in the image. With default settings, Sport mode has a slight yellow-green shift, but it is easy to tweak for suitably neutral color, and without affecting either ANSI brightness or the brighter shades of yellow. BenQ's Color Management settings let you adjust hue, saturation, and gain individually for all six primary (red, green, blue) and secondary (cyan, yellow magenta) colors. measurement between the front of the projector lens and the surface of your wall or screen. Using the Zoom Range Slider Impressive as the BenQ TH671ST is in 2D, it's only when you take advantage of the optional 3D system that the picture becomes truly immersive. Just add the optional BenQ 3D glasses, connect up to a suitable source and enjoy 3D images that are every bit as bold as at the cinema.watt speaker delivers surprisingly robust audio for such a small projector, with enough volume to fill a large family room; five sound mode presets plus User mode. distance between the lens of the projector and the surface of the screen.

Suddenly, you'll see texture in the grass on the pitch, subtle detail in wildlife documentaries and a whole new depth of image. The larger the screen and the closer you sit the greater the benefit, making 1080p more impressive on a projector at home compared to a TV. Kong: Skull Island is a reference Blu-ray in its HD version. Here, I looked for the warm colors of the seventies as the characters visit a strange place filled with horrific CGI monsters. Not only did details like Kong’s hair pop right out, the image had lots of depth despite a flat color palette. Though much of the scenery appears shot through a filter, I could always see the finest textures and most subtle elements. Superior motion quality was again evident as objects flew with lightning speed across the screen without even a hint of blur. With an outstanding brightness figure of 3000 ANSI Lumens, the TH671ST suits all types of lighting conditions. Even during daylight conditions with curtains or blinds open, the TH670 produces a watchable and detailed picture - perfect for gaming on a weekend afternoon. For optimal performance, BenQ’s LumiExpert technology detects lighting conditions and automatically adjusts the brightness to suit.
