EISA Award 2021-2022

The BenQ V7000i and V7050i projectors in combination with the Ambient Light Reflection (ALRS01) screen has won the prestigious EISA Award Best Product 2021-2022 in the category Home Theatre Display & Video for BEST EISA LASER TV PROJECTION SYSTEM 2021-2022.

The EISA Committee says:

“Mixing the super-sized visuals of a traditional projector with the user-friendly installation and operation of a TV, BenQ’s V7000i (white chassis) and V7050i (black) offer convenient, high-quality home theatre thrills. Setup is a breeze, thanks to an integrated focus pattern, measuring tool and keystone correction, while a bundled dongle introduces Android TV for video-on-demand apps, voice control and more. Build quality and styling are luxurious, audio performance from the front-facing stereo speaker array is clear and robust, and 4K HDR playback benefits from naturalistic colours, crisp images and vibrant contrast – particularly when used with BenQ’s optional 100in ALR (Ambient Light Rejection) screen. This is a superior all-in-one solution.”

The Expert Imaging and Sound Association is the community of 60 technology magazines, websites and social media commentators from 29 countries, specialising in hi-fi, home theatre, photo and video, in-car and mobile electronics. Every year the EISA jury of experts rewards the best products in each class with a coveted EISA Award.

Even in a bright, well-lit room, each of the 8.3 million pixels in the true 4K UHD image renders a projection with incredible clarity and vivid colors for the most visually impressive pictures. With BenQ’s exclusive CinematicColor technology, colors are stunningly rich and gradients are extremely fine thanks to the 98% coverage of the super wide DCI-P3 color space. In addition, HDR-PRO brings HDR10 and HLG support and dynamic tone mapping adjusts image contrast and brightness levels on the fly to reveal previously lost details in dark or shadow areas while preventing bright areas from being overexposed.

Also, BenQ shares the same values as the UHD Alliance; the V7000i and V7050i come prepared with Filmmaker Mode. Optimized by CinematicColor, Filmmaker Mode enables your Laser TV to display the movie or television show precisely as it was intended by the filmmaker for a genuine cinema experience. These class-leading features all work together to ensure that images are rendered more accurately and delivered in the way it was originally intended.

For the ultimate cinematic atmosphere, the V7000i and V7050i can be connected to an external sound system via dual HDMI 2.0b and SPDIF ports. Also, the treVolo-tuned 5Wx2 virtual surround stereo speakers with a tweeter and a woofer in the left/right cabinet, put out an impressively punchy and powerful sound for speakers of that size. Utilizing acoustic and psychoacoustic science, an immersive soundscape is created through the virtual surround sound format.

When it comes to entertainment content, the Google-certified Android TV functionality provides an extensive library of films, TV shows, games and sports to satisfy the needs of everyone. Furthermore, the intuitive and well-organized interface makes finding content easy and quick.

On the outside, the unobtrusive, yet aesthetic exterior design of the V7000i and V7050i brings a stylish home décor touch to any room. These ultra-short throw projectors take up very little space and eliminate the need for complicated wiring. The integrated automatic eye protection sensor, sunroof and dust-reducing louver design adds simple elegance to these additional practical features. Combined with easy-on-the-eye viewing, the brighter laser light source also will last 20,000 hours.

Ambient Light Reflection (ALRS01) screen

The optional advanced Ambient Light Reflection screen employs a special zigzag structure to absorb 93% of environmental light, so the viewer can enjoy bright entertainment in living rooms without having to turn the lights down.

With beautifully rich colors and captivating soundscapes, unlimited media library and stylish contemporary design cues, the V7000i and 7050i with the ALR screen set a new light on how the full cinema experience should be enjoyed at home.
