Summary: When it comes to home theatre setups, the standard choice is either a high-definition LCD or Plasma TV. With them, come budget constraints. For example, LCD TVs above the 42 and 46-inch size are extremely expensive in comparison to their smaller...
Conclusion: The BenQ W1200 isn't the ultimate of projectors out there. The full 1080p resolution does add a bit more to the detail, but you absolutely must use 1080p video on it to take advantage of it.

Summary: For a family room type environment, it's also great that the W1200 has plenty of lumens. Though we clocked only 1400 and change out of BenQ's claimed 1800, and our preferred bright mode was down around 1200 lumens, that still is a lot better than most...
Conclusion: Other than the BenQ W1200 looking a lot like many other projectors (though it has a touch more style than many), most typical is the documentation: Not a lot of depth, or advice on why to use certain settings
Pro : Bright entry level home projector with sufficient lumens to double as a portable business projector ; Definitely has that famous DLP look - with deep rich saturated colors ; Capable of screens up to 130" and maybe even larger depending on room etc ;...
Cons : Could be a bit quieter at full power, though it is quieter than most other low cost DLP's but noisier than the LCD projectors ; Worse, the projector has a variable fan level - it will speed up or slow down every so often. Many will notice when it...

Summary: Review BenQ's W1200 Full HD projector is shocking. Shockingly good that is. I've seen plenty of inexpensive single chip DLP projectors over the past few years, and while I've admired their functionality I've never hankered after a single one....
Conclusion: Overall, the W1200 presents a great argument for not spending an arm and a leg on a high-end home cinema projector. Bizarrely, I’m going to advocate you spend even less. The W1200 has a lookalike sibling which lacks frame interpolation and is £200...

Summary: Although it may be a touch aggressive for some tastes, BenQ's new £1,200 projector offers a heck of a lot for its money.
Conclusion: The W1200 does its best to turn us against it with its uneven fan noise, slightly flimsy build quality and worst of all its missing vertical image shift. But ultimately, no matter how much we tried to stay upset with it, the exceptional sharpness,...
Pro : Pictures are very sharp and clean ; Colours are intense but believable ; Good price for what's on offer
Cons : Black levels could be deeper ; Fan noise can distract ; No vertical image shift
