Internationally renowned EISA awards go to BenQ’s W2700 and W5700 projectors

EINDHOVEN, THE NETHERLANDS, August 15, 2019 – BenQ, the global No.1 DLP projector brand, today announces that two of its projectors have won highly sought-after awards from EISA (Expert Imaging and Sound Association). Winning in the 2019/2020 Best Buy Projector (W2700) and Home Theatre Projector (W5700) categories, the awards will be presented at an official ceremony on the first day of IFA, Berlin, on 6th September 2019. 

EISA is the unique association of 55 special interest magazines in Hi-Fi, home theatre audio, home theatre display & video, in-car electronics, mobile devices and photography from 29 countries across the globe. Representing the largest editorial collaboration in the world of consumer electronics, it is known internationally for the EISA awards – annual awards that provide the ultimate, independent consumer technology buying recommendations.

Steve Chu, President of BenQ Europe, says: “We’re pleased to be receiving two EISA awards this year. The accolades are important as they are from such a well-respected organisation and highlight how BenQ continues to inspire customers through innovative products. The winning projectors, for example, have been recognised for their true 4K HDR CinematicColor technology in particular, which offers big-screen, cinematic experiences, as envisioned by filmmakers. It’s great to be recognised for products that are pushing the boundaries in home cinema technology.”

This compact 4K HDR projector brings large screen home entertainment to the living room without compromising on performance or emptying the wallet. Instead, BenQ’s CinePrime W2700 uses the latest DLP chip design for 4K detail and couples it with a bespoke colour wheel and factory calibration to introduce DCI-P3 wide colour capacity to the market for the first time. In short, it ensures images that perfectly capture the creator’s intent. User-friendly features include a 1.3x zoom and 12V trigger for installation flexibility, a powered USB port for firing up a streaming HDMI player, and intuitive on-screen menus giving control over its advanced image adjustments. Combine this with its sharp, colour-rich pictures and punchy integrated stereo sound system, and you have a projector that’s best in class.

Colour accuracy, image detail, HDR playback and install flexibility – BenQ’s W5700 flagship projector is an easy recommendation for a dedicated home theatre. The 11-element all-glass lens is optimised for 4K and delivers crisp, sharp images. Similarly, BenQ’s customised colour wheel and lamp system delivers a remarkable 100% of DCI-P3 colour, making it an ideal match for HDR content. The projector is easy to install in your movie room too, with a large 1.6x zoom creating an expansive throw ratio, and horizontal and vertical lens shift to ensure accurate image alignment. Completing an impressive package is the attention to design – the anti-reflective matte chassis and patterned lens ring to soak up stray light, leaving you focused on nothing but the stunning visuals.
