BenQ MW535A 1080p Supported WXGA 3600 Lumens HDMI Vibrant Color Projector for Home and Office

I had to add my positive review to this product because I liked the projector so much that I bought a second one for work. I purchased the first one to replace an older Sharp DT-100 that I had been using at home. First, I’d like to note that I actually measured the luminous flux using a lux meter to verify their claim of 3,600 lumens, and my measurements support their claim (my measurements came up at ~3,000-3,200 lumens, but it’s within the margin of experimental error!). You can see the side-by-side with the older 1000 lumens projector (the BenQ is on the right). The brightness difference is obvious, and so is the clarity. So I’m absolutely pleased with the quality, especially for the price. With that said, statements made by other reviewers about the loudness of the speaker are true: It is not very loud. But I always intended to use it with external speakers, so it wasn’t an issue for me. Also, bear in mind that it is a single DMD, single lamp system. So if you’re sensitive to the R-G-B modulation, you will notice it with this projector, as you would with most other multimedia projectors. But I still think that it’s an outstanding system for its price!

Pretty good image quality at its price point.

I'm shocked with this product! It's clear all through our the screen. Other projectors I've tested aren't like that. For the price I wish the resolution was at least higher. But it still looks great! Best bang for the buck in my opinion. Great colors too

Now I haven't owned a whole ton of projectors, but from the ones I have and the ones my friends have owned. This is one of the best I have seen. You can use it day and night and still see it clear. Obviously during the day not as much as at night, but it still does well! We use it in place of a TV and love it. Only bummer with it was trying to figure out the audio. If you run a sound system through the projector it comes out a lot quieter than normal. Now we used some optical cords and just ran those from the various devices we have connected to the projector into a switcher (main port that you can switch between each devices sound. We did the same thing for video just to be able to add more devices to it) and it works great! Other than that, no issues at all. Would buy it again for sure.

Great picture and brightness. Could it be better? Yes, but honestly you can’t beat it for the price! Highly recommend this projector! The only issue I have with it is that the audio output is really low. Other than that it’s great!

So, I'm sure this is good for what it's for, which is business. It's BRIGHT, but it's NOT for home cimena. I want to make that clear as it would have helped me before I ordered. The screen is not true 16:9 so it will never fit your movie screen perfectly, and more importantly, the audio driver is far too quiet. Meaning, if you plug a speaker or surround sound system in, it will never get to it's potential loudness. That was extremely frustrating outdoors. And lastly, I would've dealt with the non-existence of even 1 USB drive let alone 2, but considering everything else, that was annoying as well. I'm sure even for business use the USB drive would be convenient. So, ultimately I'm returning this because it's unusable as a theater projector. I got an LEd based projector instead, which isn't as bright, but it's bright enough. And it fills the screen perfectly, is nice and loud, and has 2 USB ports. If you care, i took a shot with the Vivibright native 1080p projector. It's not the most advanced thing, but it's wonderful for an affordable home theater option. I am pleasantly surprised considering how much cheaper it is and how much longer the lamp lasts.

I bought this projector for the occasional movie outdoors on the porch. It's marketed by BenQ for both home and business use. However, though there are only a smattering of poor reviews due to the poor audio output on this projector, they're the ones that need to be paid attention to.The audio issue is twofold:1. The speaker that's housed in the unit is literally quieter, at full volume, than a cell phone. I can't imagine any situation at all that this speaker would be functional. So why have it?2. The audio output jack also puts out a ridiculously weak audio signal. I tried using a couple of different arrangements to no avail:Logitech Speaker System:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002HWRZ2K/?coliid=I3HJY4WBXQ4S9W&colid=1UQSIK9XPTY4T&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_itWohome Sound Bar:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N56V3HX/?coliid=I1AYRJONS5OKZ&colid=1UQSIK9XPTY4T&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_itWhile the Whomoe produced a louder sound, neither it or the Logitech could be used for any functional sound. When the sound levels were turned up to max on both the projector and the attached speaker system, sounds for the film were essentially inaudible. There is absolutely no situation where the audio levels would be appropriate.From what I saw, the image seemed to be fine, but it's a moot point if the audio is not functional at all.

I have tried those cheap ones ($100 - $200) of several brands but none of them works well. Those cheap ones have three significant problems on matter how they advertise them:1. poor brightness that only works in a dark room but not a bright room.2. focusing problem that cheap ones can NOT focus on 100% area.3. bad quality control that two of the same product may perform differently.This one is professional and much better than those cheap ones. You get what you pay for.
