BenQ\u00a0is a company that specializes in the creation of many devices, however, derived from what has worked for them, projectors are one of its main attractions, since they have a variety for all types of users.\u00a0From getting simple models for basic functions to equipment that offers features that in the past, perhaps it was not even thought that they could manufacture projectors with such quality.\u00a0Today we want to review in detail what the\u00a0BenQ W2700i\u00a0offers, since it quickly attracts our attention due to the good combination of functions it presents.\u00a0Of course, mention from this point that it is a device that exceeds 1,500 euros.<\/p>\n

Exterior design of the BenQ W2700i<\/h2>\n

Design that despite its similarity with other models stands out for the change in some details that give it a striking view from any angle<\/p>\n

Normally there is not so much physical difference between one projector or another.\u00a0This happens because the construction does not adapt simply for the sake of it\u00a0, but has a purpose that is to facilitate its use in search of better comfort.\u00a0However, since we are dealing with a high-end model, we come to find certain differences.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nor will they be drastic changes or make a significant difference, but they do bring something new to the aesthetic.\u00a0First of all consider that it is not a portable projector both because of its dimensions and especially because of the weight that reaches\u00a04.2 kg\u00a0.\u00a0It may not seem like much,\u00a0the problem is that carrying it is uncomfortable\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Of course, you can store it in a backpack and make it easier to move and it may not even be an inconvenience for you,\u00a0but we are based on what many users have commented\u00a0.\u00a0However, in terms of appearance, it generates attraction for a good combination of colors that allow it to improve its presence and deliver a modern appearance.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With classic touches that are a visual plus no matter where you are going to place it.\u00a0Obviously the construction materials are of high quality which makes the projector resistant\u00a0, but do not even think about throwing it away, since it does not mean that it is resistant to everything.\u00a0With what is offered we can determine that aesthetically it looks good.<\/p>\n

Connectivity<\/h3>\n

It delivers the essential connectors so that your experience is the best and you can make the most of the projector’s qualities.\u00a0It has two\u00a0HDMI\u00a0inputs that are a vital part due to the functions that can be acquired from these.\u00a0Normally they are used to connect external devices and be able to send the signal to the projector.<\/p>\n

It includes two USB\u00a0ports\u00a0, but they are not the same, since one is\u00a0type A\u00a0more focused on charging devices or downloading updates.\u00a0For its part,\u00a0USB type mini B\u00a0is used to perform services, yes, the first comes in version 3.0, which is an important advantage due to the speed obtained when transferring files.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It offers other physical connections of a similar interest, but so that you know in detail which ones are above, you have a table of specifications where we have placed each available connector.\u00a0Being a smart projector, it allows\u00a0Wi-Fi\u00a0connection , which in turn seems most attractive to us for everything we can do through this connectivity.<\/p>\n

Projection quality and functions in general<\/h3>\n

It is time to talk about the projection that the\u00a0BenQ W2700i\u00a0is capable of delivering , since from the first moment it becomes an attractive section.\u00a0Especially for delivering a native\u00a04K\u00a0resolution that by power ensures more precise details and depth when projecting, although it can work from a VGA resolution without problem.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The idea with this model is to get a good cinematographic experience that can feel futuristic.\u00a0For this they have integrated exclusive functions that work on this topic.\u00a0For example,\u00a0CinematicColor\u00a0that uses optimal colors so that content can reproduce accurate and enhanced images at all times.<\/p>\n

To what we already mentioned, we must add that it has\u00a0ISFccc-\u00a0certified calibration that customizes image performance regardless of space, along with light balance modes that can be suitable for both day and night.\u00a0Does it have HDR support?\u00a0That’s right, maybe not as we know it in televisions, but they improve the quality.<\/p>\n

Sound<\/h3>\n

Normally, projectors do not offer such good sound, however, for this model that changes a bit and despite the fact that it only integrates two speakers and a maximum power of 10W, there is a difference that we can even consider important when comparing it with other models.\u00a0What is that difference?\u00a0Well, it adapts the\u00a0CinemaMaster Audio\u00a0technology that uses exclusive equalization algorithms that serve to be able to listen to content with a pure clarity close to what they use in Hollywood.<\/p>\n

Other notable features<\/h3>\n

It offers a select variety of features that cause a pretty good performance according to your idea when using this monitor<\/p>\n

If something is worth the\u00a0BenQ W2700i,\u00a0it is the rest of its functions that provide optimal performance with very few errors.\u00a0Thanks to its design you will get an ultra-short throw, 1.3x zoom with vertical slide and an easy installation.\u00a0To counteract the trapezoidal effect, they include a function to obtain a square image.<\/p>\n

You can use Android on this projector, which is quite an important and valuable point at the same time.\u00a0Among the main benefits you have more than 5,000 applications that are divided into many categories.\u00a0This allows you to have variety in the projector and use it in the way that suits you best, although it is designed for home theater.<\/p>\n
