I rarely go to the cinema, but when I do, I can't help but wonder how much fun it could be to plug my PlayStation into the projector and play on a giant screen. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one to have that little fantasy.
In comes the BenQ X3000i, a 4LED, 4K HDR projector targeted at gamers. BenQ claims the X3000i is the first of its kind.
You might be curious what '4LED' is. Simply put, the projector uses a fourth LED that is set up in an RGBB fashion - red, green, blue, blue. According to BenQ, the second blue LED helps produce more consistent colours and brightness for longer periods of time - potentially up to 20,000 hours. However, while the projector supports 4K HDR, it's limited by a 60Hz refresh rate with a 16ms response time at this resolution.
Dialing down the resolution to 1080p, and you can get up to 120Hz refresh rate at 8ms, or even 240Hz for an incredible 4ms, offering results that will rival most esports-focused 1080p gaming monitors.
It has a modern cube design with stylish vents that wrap around the sides of the projector, giving it a simple yet playful style. Ports are all on the back for easy access, while controls for settings and navigation - as well as the manual zoom and focus dials - are on the side.
