BenQ PE8720 projector review

by Kevin C. Tofel, posted Jan 18th 2006 at 9:48AM

You know the review product is good when the reviewer actually purchases the product. In fact, you know the product is great when it lists for $8k and the reviewer actually purchases it! That's what happened when ProjectorReviews took the BenQ PE8720 for a spin. This 720p DLP projector boasts a whopping 10,000:1 contrast ratio, which is the same ratio that blew us away on the demo SED sets at CES. (Note: production SED sets will offer contrast ratios of 100,000:1). Looks like the TI DarkChip 3 is a real winner since it's the guts of this projector.

Uh, $8k is actually quite a lot. What does the reviewer use it for? (for family photos? ;-)
