The first true 4K home theater projector for movie lovers for under $2000, it features the same color standard for home viewing that was used to create the 4K film itself, accurately preserving the movie’s original image.
DCI-P3 is the new color gamut standard for 4K film production

DCI-P3 color space is 1.26 times wider than Rec. 709, especially in Green and Red. Compared to the older 1080p films, theater goers can now enjoy richer and more lifelike colors from 4K technology.
How movie lovers can enjoy 4K films at home the same as at a theater.

To see a movie where all those emotions come to life exactly as the director intended, viewers need to have the same technology as filmmakers. Since 4K UHD HDR films and 4K streaming contents use DCI-P3 as the color space to express the director’s vision, movie lovers should likewise choose a 4K projector capable of accurately displaying the DCI-P3 color gamut. It delivers 8.3 million individual and unique pixels onscreen, and embodies BenQ’s commitment to “Convey the truest color and impart the deepest feelings to the viewer.” It offers film buffs and movie aficionados DCI-P3 True 4K HDR cinematic quality to ensure an immersive theatrical experience with a larger screen at home.
