Superior Picture Quality

The BenQ HT480w is a WSVGA (848×480) home-theatre projector built around a 0.7-inch DLP panel, designed for early widescreen DVD playback and small dedicated cinema rooms. It produces 800 lumens with a 700:1 contrast ratio and uses a 1.3× manual zoom with a throw ratio of 1.62–2.11:1, supporting screen sizes from 40 to 300 inches. Its colour wheel, optics, and light engine are tuned for 16:9 material even though the native resolution sits in the 480p class, giving it a characteristic early-DLP cinematic look.

The HT480w weighs 6.4 kilograms and measures 13.0 × 40.1 × 38.1 centimetres, using a lamp rated for roughly 1500 hours in standard mode. It supports front or rear projection on a table or ceiling mount, and its fan noise ranges from 34 dB in normal mode to 30 dB in eco. As a product of its era, it focuses on simple controls, basic digital keystone, and smooth DVD-era playback rather than HD or modern streaming sources.

Highlights
  • Designed specifically for early home-theatre use with a cinematic, film-like DLP image
  • Optimised for widescreen DVD playback with native 16:9 presentation
  • Uses a colour-wheel system that emphasises smooth motion and warm, natural tones
  • Supports flexible placement with both table and ceiling installation options
  • Provides straightforward, user-friendly controls suited to first-generation home-cinema owners
  • Includes basic digital keystone correction for quick setup in non-ideal rooms
  • Built to deliver a classic “dark-room cinema” experience rather than bright-room viewing

Dynamic Performance and Rich Gray-scale

With a 6-segment color wheel, the Benq HT480W can attain refresh rates of up to 240 Hz providing dynamic performance and rich gray-scale without the 'color flicker' or 'rainbowing' associated with other single-DMD DLP™ projectors.

Sealed Optical Engine with a High-Quality Lens Design

The optical engine uses a high-quality lens for maximizing optical performance. The sealed optical engine prevents light leakage and any dust from entering the engine, which could cause annoying 'spots' in the projected image.

Low-Noise Operation

The HT480W's unique cooling system design prevents annoying fan noise, and is rated at less than 30 dB.

Wide Variety of Inputs

Supports various video formats, including Composite, S-Video, Component, DTV Y/PB/PR, DTV RGB and Computer signals. The HDTV input (DTV Y/PB/PR and DTV RGB) is accessed through a BNC port, minimizing the amount of signal degradation from longer cable installations.

HDTV-Ready

Compatible with 480i, 480P, 1080i and 720P formats (via an external DTV decoder, not provided).

De-interlacing with 3:2 Pull-Down

Using BenQ's proprietary de-interlacing technology, it provides exceptional scaling and film-to-video (3:2 pull-down) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible.

PIP/POP function

Picture-in-picture and picture-on-picture functions allow you to display two inputs on the screen at the same time.

Video Memory

Allows the users to store up to three different settings in the video memories.
