But for gaming with some room lights on, the Living Room and Game picture modes offer respectable performance.
PROJECTOR MOUNT OPTOMA MOVIE
In this model’s better-looking picture modes like Cinema and Sports, this projector is only modestly brighter than our top pick, the HT2060, and it has performance issues-namely mediocre contrast, color, and black-level performance, plus noticeable light spill around the edges of the screen-that make it a poor choice for movie watching in a dark room. The TH685P has a claimed light output of 3,500 lumens we measured a maximum of 2,812 lumens in the Bright picture mode, but that mode is highly inaccurate and looks pretty bad. We tested the BenQ TH685P, which has a 120 Hz refresh rate, low input lag (listed at 8.3 ms for 120 Hz), and support for HDR10 and 4K signal input (downscaled to 1080p).
PROJECTOR MOUNT OPTOMA 1080P
We have encountered some solid 1080p HDR gaming projectors priced under $1,000, however. If you want an affordable gaming projector: You won’t find a great 4K HDR gaming projector for under $1,000, so we recommend that serious gamers check out our guide to the best living-room projector for better but slightly more expensive options. The biggest potential drawback to this projector is that the single-DLP-chip design can produce a visible rainbow effect for some viewers, but most people either can’t see it or aren’t bothered by it. The HT2060 lacks built-in streaming apps and Bluetooth support, but you can easily add those features by connecting a streaming stick to one of the two HDMI 2.0 inputs. The HT2060 has a 1080p HD resolution but supports the input of a 4K high dynamic range video signal, and it supports 3D playback. The fully backlit IR remote is easy to use in a dark room and offers lots of helpful buttons to adjust the image on the fly. The projector’s 1.3x zoom, adjustable feet, and ability to vertically shift the lens make it easier for you to position the image on your screen, and this model isn’t plagued by excessively loud fan noise.
That’s what you get with the HT2060, along with a respectably robust speaker, a thorough connection panel, and a long-lasting LED light source that’s quiet in operation and won’t need to be replaced.
You can find projectors below $1,000 that offer good brightness or a solid black level or accurate color, but it’s rare to find all three in the same package. The BenQ HT2060 stands above every projector we’ve tested in the $1,000-and-under price range because it gets the important things right in the picture-quality department and doesn’t have any major ergonomic annoyances to contend with.
