  • Our take on the BenQ HT4550i 4K HDR LED Projector

    The BenQ HT4550i is a 4K DLP home theater projector built around an LED light source rated for 30,000 hours in Eco mode, so there is no lamp to replace. It covers 100% of Rec.709 and adds vertical and horizontal lens shift plus a 1.3x zoom, which makes ceiling mounting and off-center placement easier than on fixed-lens rivals. It suits movie and streaming rooms that want a long-life, near-recalibration-free image, and it also accepts 1080p at 240Hz for gaming. Against lamp-based 4K projectors it trades peak brightness for lifespan and color stability; against pricier laser models it gives up some light output and black level.
