The wave of affordable 4K projectors just keeps on coming – I now find myself lapping up an impressively talented 4K (and HDR) projector from BenQ that costs just £1,200. And 3D fans will be ecstatic to learn that, unusually in today's projector and TV world, the TK800 supports 3D playback, making...

When it comes to big screen entertainment, nothing delivers more bang for your buck than a projector. Unfortunately, though, most people haven't adopted projectors quite in the same way that they have with TVs - whether that's because they're scared about setup, concerned about performance or...

Sharp 4K and HDR images; Big; bright; colorful picture; Excellent motion handing; Good input lag for gaming; Cracking price

Poor black and shadow detail; Light spillage; Noisy even in Eco mode; Color wheel can result in rainbows

If you’re a sports fanatic or looking to set up a projector in a relatively bright room, the BenQ TK800M is an excellent choice — if you have the room to set it up for the proper distance.

Bright display, 4K HDR, Decent contrast ratio, 96% Rec.709 coverage, Very reasonably priced

Mediocre sound at best, Fan can be a tad loud at times, Occasionally takes a bit to switch to HDR mode, Light "shadow border", Has a relatively long throw distance, No lens shift

Great projector with fantastic picture quality, colours and brightness - 4 stars because of heat output and some glitching in the image *might have a faulty unit, not sure yet. This is my first ever projector and I must say, coming from a 49 inch TV, this is a huge step up.

The BenQ TK800 offers 4K projecting on a budget for home cinema enthusiasts. Using the Texas Instruments 0.47-inch DMD with XPR pixel shifting, it manages to make a native 1080p projector deliver more details, 3D and HDR at an affordable price.

The BenQ TK800M gives you good 4K performance, but it still can't beat a TV for the price.

single-chip DLP projector which is being marketed as a home entertainment and sports model.

Sharp images and faux 4K 8.3 m pixel image resolution; Good motion handling; Bright enough for use in normal living room settings; Works to the design...

Mediocre contrast and black levels for dark room use; Light edge around image; Out of the box settings not accurate enough to Rec.709; Noisy even in...

This my 2nd BenQ. I also own a 1080p from BenQ which I really liked. This is an upgrade into 4k. While the picture is vibrant and sharp there few things I was expecting since I already own another. The throw distance is longer than usual so it needs resdjustement of your mount if you are upgrading.

This BenQ TK800 offers a whole lot of value, and at the moment, may well be the least expensive 4K content capable projector on the market. Well, of course price wise, it is tied with its not quite identical twin, the HT2550.

4K UHD resolution of 1920x1080x4 with pixel shifting; 4K content capable; Supports HDR for expanded dynamic range – more "pop"; Picture quality right out of the box; better than most; Fastest color wheel – means virtually no RBE – rainbow effect for most of those who are sensitive; RGBW color wheel...

Could definitely be brighter for handling HDR (like most projectors; Only offers basic placement flexibility; with 1.2:1 zoom and no lens shift; No CFI for smooth motion on sports and other HDTV; Of course the small 5 watt speaker is no substitute for a real sound system; And; 5 watt speaker is side...

I've already looked at models from BenQ and ViewSonic and today, I'm checking out BenQ's TK800. It uses Texas Instruments' .47" quad-shift DLP chip to deliver 3840×2160 resolution, HDR10, and 3000 ANSI lumens. It's an ideal high-res, high-output solution for media rooms with ambient light.
