BenQ W5800 – Commercial Grade Cinema Projector For Your Home

BenQ has entered the chat. W5800 is BenQ's foray into the high end projector market and it's a banger. The company most known (certainly to me) for being a leader in high end gaming monitors has now established itself as a contender in the home theater space as well. Having personally compared this to other models from JVC and EPSON (some costing 3x its price), what I can say is DO NOT let the modest price point of W5800 fool you into thinking that by not spending more you are in some way missing out on achieving an incredible movie experience. Without exaggeration, this is, in our opinion, the absolute HIGHEST performing projector per dollar on the market available, PERIOD. Please reference this handy dandy Projector Calculator in order to determine specific compatibility with respect to your planned throw distance, screen size, and room dimensions.

FAQs

Does the projector support Bluetooth or Wi-Fi speakers?
No, the projector does not have the capability to transmit audio via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. We recommend connecting your speaker directly to your playback device or connecting the projector to an audio system via ARC/eARC for improved audio quality and to avoid latency issues associated with wireless transmission.

Does the projector support full 3D formats?
Yes, the projector supports full 3D formats including Frame Sequential (PC), Frame Packing (Blu-ray), Side by side and Top & Bottom (streaming) 3D formats.

Can I turn on the Local Contrast Enhancer or MEMC while watching HDR10+ content?
When watching HDR10+ content, you cannot enable Local Contrast Enhancer (LCE) at the same time. This is because HDR10+ does not allow additional contrast enhancement functions to be enabled, as they may conflict with other contrast-enhancing algorithms. However, it is okay to enable Motion Estimation and Motion.

How to watch HDR10+ content?
If your player and video both support HDR10+, your projector will automatically activate when it receives an HDR10+ format through HDMI. However, if one of the player, video, or projector does not support HDR10+ format, the content will only be played in the standard HDR10 format.

Why does the 4K DLP Technology produce a slight high frequency noise?
In order to create smooth 4K resolution images, True 4K DLP Technology utilizes high speed pixel displacement and the superimposition of pixels to produce the 8.3 million pixels seen by the viewer. An end result of this process is a degree of vibration that may results in a slight or unnoticeable high-frequency noise.

What type of 4K HDR signal is compatible with the projector?
The compatible resolution is 3840 x 2160 in pixels at 24/25/30/50/60 (Hz). Please click and follow the instructions below, or read on to learn more about this topic.

How do I connect a Fire Stick or Roku stick to the projector?
Plug the Fire TV / Roku Stick device into the projector's outside HDMI port, plug one end of the USB cable into your Fire TV / Roku Stick, and more. Please click and follow the instructions below, or read on to learn more about this topic.

Can I connect the projector to any game console?
1. Yes, you can connect the projector to a Switch, PS4/PS5, and Xbox console using an HDMI cable.
2. Yes, you can connect a Nintendo Switch (Switch Lite is not supported) directly to the projector via a USB-C cable.

What type of connections on the projector supports HDR10/HLG/HDR10+?
The projector will automatically detect HDR10/HLG/HDR10+ and display compatible signals from sources connected to HDMI (HDCP2.2).
