BenQ AK700ST Golf Simulator Projector vs BenQ AK800ST

The AK800ST is the stronger simulator projector: 5,000 lumens against 4,000, HDMI 2.1 with input lag as low as 4.8 ms, Golf Mode 2.0, camera-based Auto Screen Fit 2.0 that handles curved screens, and a sealed IP5X laser rated up to 30,000 hours in Eco. The AK700ST is a solid 4K short-throw at 4,000 lumens with Auto Screen Fit, Golf Mode and a 20,000-hour laser, and owners rate it 4.4 out of 5. Both use the same 0.69–0.83 throw ratio, so room depth is not the deciding factor. Step up to the AK800ST if your room has ambient light, you want gaming on the same screen, or you plan to keep it for years.

• Choose the BenQ AK700ST if you want a proven 4K short-throw for golf simulation and home viewing and your room can be kept fairly dark.
• Choose the BenQ AK800ST if you need more brightness for a lit room, curved-screen support, or low-lag gaming alongside simulator use.
