BenQ X500i 4K HDR Short Throw Console Gaming Projector

The BenQ X500i is a short‑throw 4K HDR gaming projector built to bring big‑screen action into smaller, modern living spaces. It projects a large, detailed 4K UHD image (3840 × 2160) using a 4LED light source and offers up to 2,200 ANSI lumens brightness — bright and vivid enough for movies, games or streaming even in modest ambient light conditions. Thanks to its very short throw ratio (0.69–0.83) and 1.2× zoom, you can sit the projector just a short distance from the wall and still cast a large image, making it ideal for flats, bedrooms or compact home cinemas.

For gamers it’s especially appealing: input lag is ultra‑low (as little as 4.2 ms at 1080p/240 Hz, ~16.7 ms at 4K/60 Hz), ensuring responsive gameplay on consoles and PCs. The colour engine uses 30‑bit processing with 84% DCI‑P3 coverage, delivering rich, cinematic colour reproduction and smooth gradients for games and HDR‑content alike. Built‑in speakers with BenQ’s CinematicSound and symmetrical placement enhance immersion when external audio isn’t available. With a 4LED light source rated up to 30,000 hours (eco mode) and straightforward HDMI 2.0b connectivity, the X500i offers a balanced mix of performance, practicality and value for gamers and movie lovers alike.
