Second review of yours I've commented on in a few days, so time to subscribe. After deliberating way too long on my HT3550 replacement between this, the 3560, and the 4550i, and I finally pulled the trigger on the 2060. Your review was a huge help. Contrast, color, and input lag were the primary features I was looking at, and the image looks so great on this one that I can't justify 3x the price for the 4550. Of all the things I noticed when I upgraded to 4k, resolution was the least impactful. HDR, color gamut, and access to 4K+Atmos streams were way more important, and this checks all those boxes with aplomb. The contrast, vibrant color, and 3D brightness seem like a big step up over the 3550, and I'm looking forward to the LED lamp benefits. Can't wait to get it, and I'll update with my thoughts when I do.
You’re going to love it! I’m glad the reviews helped and it sounds like you absolutely made the correct decision based on your needs. Let me know how it turns out and thank you for the Subscription and likes! Let me know what you think when you get it okay?
I'm really interested in this projector or and HT3560/X3000i. I'm leaning toward this one for the reasons you mentioned above and i'm not sure if I want to move up to 4k. What has your experience been like?
@@davidlichtenauer3722 I ended up going with the x3000i. The HT2060 had some great strengths, but also some drawbacks. After using it, the benefits of LED were immediately obvious. Next-level color brightness, excellent HDR, and fast power on. The black levels and contrast were incredible for the price. However, the color banding is really a problem, and it's uncertain whether Benq will be able to fix it, and whether the fix will be available without shipping it back to Benq. I also found that I missed 4k a lot more than I thought I would. Color gamut and HDR are the most important aspects of UHD, but the resolution really adds to the texture and realism. The x3000i is excellent, but the black levels are quite a bit higher than the HT2060, more on par with the ht3550. It maintains all the benefits of LED, with even better color accuracy and brightness. That brightness makes for excellent contrast in most scenes, but it's noticeably more gray in dark scenes than the 2060. If black levels are your top priority, the ht2060 is unbeatable within 3 times its price. But 4k is a major enhancement, and the overall picture quality of the x3000i is the big winner in my opinion. Also keep in mind that the x3000i is not at all flexible for mounting. It has a large 110% lens offset and no lens shift. Make sure you can mount it exactly where you need it.
Not saying this is not a great Gaming projector - I don't know - I'm not a gamer. But the 'HT' in the model number literally stands for 'Home Theater'. This projector was designed specifically for a dark room showing Movies.
The only problem I have with DLP projectors is that they bother my eyes when watching movies. There’s no way of fixing it. I have to buy a LCD projector. Does anyone know a good gaming LCD projector?
How would you compare the gaming performance on this vs the x3000i vs the Epson LS12000? How does the 4LED DLP stack up against the Laser 3LCD in terms of motion resolution?
I would choose the epson all day if you can afford it. Otherwise the BenQ x3000i is very close but its missing 4k 120hz (only 1080p 120hz) and motorized lens shift. Hope you like and sub to the channel
I know this projector can receive HDR signals, but what about Dolby vision? Will it output those as HDR? Most of the new movies on Netflix are Dolby vision... So with this projector, would they still play as HDR?
Does the image quality go down when you keystone? I don’t have a room to put the projector in the middle of the screen. If I were to buy one I would probably put it 10-11 feet away from the screen and 5-6 feet on the corner from the center of the screen. Is this projector going to do me any good if I place it to where I mentioned? Thanks.
I dont see a lot of image quality issues but maybe some loss of focus around the outside edges of the image. Mainly keystone increases the input latency for gaming

Isn't going from the 3550 to 2060 a downgrade in picture quality?
@@SnakeDoctor5104 It's a downgrade in resolution. It's an upgrade in color, contrast, and black levels. Just depends on your priorities.
WOW we bought this projector not knowing it's 120hz capable. That's fantastic!!!
Good choice! It looks super sharp and gaming at 120 is a must these days. Hope you like and sub
Does it support HDMI CEC so I can use Sonos speaker bar with it?
Awesome review mate, subscribed. I'm on the hunt for my first projector and it looks like I've found it 👌
Thanks ! I really appreciate the love. Do you like the other videos I have made also? Anything you’d like to see?
Does it have the rainbow effect..

Are you able to zoom in and zoom out?? The image?
Yes
Great review thanks!
Hi, thanks for the review. How does it compare to JMGO N1 Pro which is also in similar price range?
In dci-p3 mode does the brightness drop too much?
Tk700 or ht2060 for only movies? Thanks
HT2060 if you’re okay with no 4K. Otherwise you should think about X3100i
Picked up the ht3560 on Tuesday. Nice image but the screen is has smuggy artifacts that destroy the experience. Benq has to repair it out of the box.
That is too bad but it happens sometimes. Hopefully BenQ is quite to repair or replace. Please like and sub!
Is filmmaker mode great?
Film maker mode really does look fantastic on this projector out of the box yes !
Can I get 83" with this one?

Good day! Is there Russian on the menu? Thank you!
Bought a BenQ TH575, for $530 w/tax. Really like the overall results. Researched for about 3 days, thinking I was going $1000-$1500 4K...
Great deal! How do you like it now that you have had it a month?
Is the color banding issue (in 24fps) fixed? did you observe it?
Good afternoon! Does BENQ 2060 need to be serviced at a service center and how often? I mean, is it tedious to change thermal paste?

Yes it will still process HDR

You shouldn't add background music the parts where you're talking. It makes it difficult to hear what you're saying

While it's capable of displaying 4K content, it's not a native 4K projector.
