BenQ W700 Pro Reviews

The W700 uses the same chassis as BenQ's other projectors aimed at the home cinema market and whilst the angled and curved design certainly wouldn't look out of place in your living room, the white plastic construction does betray its lineage. Lens controls are limited meaning that that careful positioning is essential and the use of a bright bulb and a colour wheel make the W700 noisy when in operation. The menu system is simple and clearly laid out but, strangely, whilst the W700 includes a Colour Management System (CMS), it has no white balance control. At the rear is a standard set of connections and whilst the remote is basic, it's also comfortable to hold, easy to use and has plenty of well positioned buttons. The W700 doesn't come with any 3D glasses included but BenQ's RF design is rechargeable and comfortable to wear.
