BenQ W2720i 4K projector: What makes it special?

The BenQ W2720i projector comes with AI Cinema Mode, which uses built-in camera sensors to understand your room’s lighting and tweak the visuals on screen in real-time. Whether it’s a sun-drenched Sunday afternoon or a dimly lit evening binge session, the picture automatically adjusts for optimal brightness and scene-by-scene enhancements.

Under the hood, it’s all about the visuals. The W2720i uses a long-lasting 4LED RGBB light source, giving you up to 30,000 hours of crisp, vivid projection. It supports a True 4K UHD resolution, delivering 8.3 million pixels and covering 90 per cent of the DCI-P3 colour gamut for accurate, cinema-grade colour.

Paired with HDR-PRO and support for HDR10+ and HLG, you can expect impressive contrast and rich detail, whether you’re watching a gritty noir or the latest Marvel spectacle.

Space is no constraint either. From just 2.7 meters, you can project a 120-inch screen, with flexibility to go as large as 200 inches. Setup is made effortless with handy tools like Auto Screen Fit, 8-point Corner Fit, 1.3x zoom, and Vertical Lens Shift. This is perfect for those who want that perfect frame without too much fiddling.

Streaming is built right in, thanks to Android TV, so apps like Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar, and YouTube are just a few clicks away. You also get support for Google Assistant and Chromecast, making it easy to control the projector or cast content from your phone.

All of this is wrapped in a sleek design with intuitive side-mounted buttons and built-in cable management to keep things tidy. It weighs about 6.4 kg, making it easy enough to move or reposition when needed.

For audio, it supports Dolby Atmos pass-through via HDMI eARC, and comes with dual 5W speakers, though cinephiles will likely want to pair it with a dedicated sound system via S/PDIF or HDMI.
