Projector Reviews Comments

The BenQ W5800 combines excellent picture quality with installation flexibility to deliver a premium viewing experience. Color Accuracy, high native contrast, fine optics, and low audible noise separate a premium projector like the W5800 from other home entertainment projectors. While BenQ makes several great lifestyle projectors with smart features and excellent built-in sound systems, the W5800 focuses solely on picture quality.
Color accuracy is another area where the BenQ W5800 excels. The projector supports BenQ's CinematicColor technology, which covers a wide color gamut and reproduces colors accurately. This feature is particularly important for movie enthusiasts who want to experience films as the directors intended.
BenQ also factory calibrates every W5800 to ensure the best picture possible. Few projectors can match the W5800 color accuracy, and most cost significantly more. Our pre-calibrated measurements were better than many projectors' post-calibrated measurements.

The BenQ W5800 is a good projector that performs just as well if not better in some areas as its peers in this same price category. It provides a sharp and vibrant image, with great gamut tracking and full DCI-P3 D65 coverage achieved without the use of a filter, so users do not have to take a hit on loss of light. It is this ability, along with its base out-of-box color accuracy, that constitute its real strengths. Additionally, it gives users a bright image with its 2,600 largely usable lumens, and offers features like HDR10+, eARC, and a lamp-free laser light source, all making for a compelling option for those in the market for a higher end home theater projector.
- Solid state laser light source
- Very accurate color out of the box
- High quality, motorized lens
- Full DCI P3 coverage without need of filter
- HDR10+ Support
