We’ve become used to the ever-increasing quality and value offered by today’s display devices but, even so, there’s still room for the occasional surprise package. And that’s certainly what has managed to deliver with the W1200.Simply put, this compac...

First impressions of the W1200, BenQ’s latest home cinema projector, are good; it’s compact, quiet and stylish. The glossy white and silver plastic chassis is easy on the eye and the projector is small enough to fit on a shelf. Like most projectors ava...

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. Typically, they’...

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 che...

Small, handsomely designed and selling for just over a grand, BenQ's latest Full HD projector is aimed at the 'home projection' market - and that means photos and gaming as well as home cinema. The W1200, you see, has something that virtually all ser...

Superb image quality for HD content...

Noisy fan and lacklustre builtin speakers.

Ultra-clean and reference-level HD detail - together with startlingly bright and well-saturated colours - suggest that BenQ has developed a good value projector for all occasions that's capable of consistently incredible pictures from HD sources. We're...

With a price tag of just £1,200, BenQ's DLP-based W1200 projector would once, not so very long ago, have been an absolutely bog-standard effort in terms of features and, most likely, performance. Traditional DLP issues such as rainbow noise and 'fizzing'...

There's no match for a blockbuster movie on a big screen, and startlingly high performance can now be had even with entry level models. BenQ's DLP-based W1200 steps up to the plate with a stack of decent features, which makes it an aggressive contender...

What we have for review today is one of those products which comes along once in a while that defies all logic given its price point. The BenQ W1200 is a projector clearly classed as an entry level product and the build quality also points to this being t...

Billed as a home theater projector, the W1200 seemed to have a number of appealing attributes when it debuted at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas back in January. Sporting ISF certification and featuring an affordable price tag with a s...

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...

The BenQ W1200 isn't priced as an entry level 1080p projector. Those projectors are under $1000. The W1200 competes price wise more with several very good, step up home theater projectors. At the time of this review, online prices for the W1200 are not f...

The BenQ W1000 was one of the first 1080p projectors available for less than $1000. Now, BenQ's new 1080p projectors, the W1100 and W1200, add affordable options for home theater, home entertainment, and video gaming. These projectors offer performance...

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 co...

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. The BenQ W1200 - a 'homely' looking projector The BenQ W...
