BenQ HT2550 4K UHD HDR DLP Projector
BenQ is best known in AV circles for its highly affordable DLP projectors
that sport highly accurate color right out of the box. The company continues
this trend with the HT2550, a 4K/UHD model that promises to put 8.3 million
distinct pixels up on screen for less than $2000, and it supports HDR.
The HT2550 utilizes single-chip DLP technology with a 0.47″ DMD (Digital
Micromirror Device), which allows for a compact form factor as well as a low
price. It is the first affordable projector from BenQ to offer
compatibility with HDR10 video.
This projector’s specs state that it covers 96% of the BT.709 gamut, which
is great for SDR movies but smaller than the DCI/P3 gamut used in mastering
most HDR content that is available today. It’s nice and bright with 2200-
lumen output and it’s spec’d as offering a 10,000:1 contrast ratio. 3D
fans will be glad to know it supports that format in 1080p
This is a budget projector, so don’t expect miracles from the lens. It does
offer 1.2X zoom, but no lens shift. In its press release, BenQ also touts
the durability of DLP—colors don’t degrade over time.
“Homeowners today want to replicate the magic of the big-screen 4K digital
cinema at home,” said Lars Yoder, President, BenQ America Corp. “The
HT2550 makes that possible, delivering striking 4K resolution for
spectacular movie nights. Engineered with advanced audio and video
enhancements and HDR capabilities, it’s an incredible value for the finest
home cinema experience.”
One specification that did not show up in the press release is light output,
which—along with high native contrast—is a crucial ingredient in
projected HDR. It will be interesting to see what sort of advances in image
fidelity this new generation of affordable DLP projection brings; the BT.709
limitation is a bit concerning.
The upshot here is that this should be a tremendous projector for watching
standard-definition content, whether it’s streamed or playing from an HD
Blu-ray. If the HT2550 does a decent job with HDR10 content as well, that’
ll be icing on the cake.
