BenQ W7000 Projector: Pros and Cons

BenQ W7000 Projector: Pros

3D capable
Single chip DLP provides pretty clean 3D
Excellent calibrated color and skin tones
Very good black level performance – true “ultra high contrast”
Rich colors, especially on darker scenes
Very good placement flexibility
Very good black level performance (but not the best)
Picture in Picture
True Video – CFI – smooth motion, good for sports and other non-film based content)
2 HDMI 1.4a (Blu-ray 3D compatible) inputs
Excellent remote control, with good backlight and range
3D Works with 3rd party glasses
Excellent value proposition

BenQ W7000 Projector: Cons

Below average lamp life for higher operational costs (a price, in this case, paid for all that brightness)
A noisier projector than average, at full power, although typical of most DLP projectors and a few LCD and LCoS projectors
Lacks second HDMI circuit to allow two HDMI sources for Split Screen, would be much better
No 3D glasses included at the price
BenQ 3D glasses are a bit larger and heavier than most
Color wheel is 6 segment, but only 4X speed. That will have more rainbow sensitive people noticing rainbows more often than on the 5X wheels typical of more expensive DLPs, still I rarely spotted any rainbows

Fini!
