Pros & Cons
BenQ HT3050
VSPros
- In comparison with the previous projector, this one is able to cover 30 inches more of a screen diagonal with the maximum of 180 inches.
- No light leakage is seen in black colors.
- You can calibrate the color scheme to find a perfect picture in your ambient light.
- It offers both horizontal and vertical keystone adjustments.
- The projector has an MHL-enabled HDMI port.
- The built-in speakers have an audio enhancement feature.
Cons
- After the lamp bulb serves its term, it is complicated to replace it because of a too-tight screw holding it.
- The projector is prone to show rainbow artifacts.
- It doesn't perform so well when it comes to dark scenes: they look too dark and, hence, barely visible.
