BenQ i910 high-definition movie how to call LeTV 49 million TV?

BenQ i910 100 inch ultra-throw TV evaluation

Before this, LeTV introduced a 490,000 120-inch 4K TV, which can be said to be tailor-made for high-end groups. However, the price of 490,000 yuan is still a sky-high price for more middle class people. Can ordinary people enjoy less than 100-inch personal theater at home? Inevitably, on October 22nd, BenQ's intelligent projection line was released in a grand scale. There is a i910 called hyper-television TV that caught my attention. It uses an ultra-short-focus home projector HD, with a 100-inch light curtain, can effectively resist the strong light environment, in the back of the article we will be listed separately for everyone to demonstrate this piece of 100-inch Anti-light curtain effect. Compared to LeTV's price of 490,000 yuan, the official price of BenQ's 100-inch ultra-throw TV is 15,999 yuan. So can this i910 Super-Throw TV really replace the traditional LCD TV?

Calling LeTV 4.9 million TVs? Measuring the BenQ i910 HD Cinema

If everyone is willing to buy a TV with a larger screen, if the budget allows, it is the same as the reason we buy a car because TVs and cars are not durable at home, but they are generally not available for several years after purchase. Will be easily replaced, so many of my friends hope to choose a more cost-effective LCD TV with a larger screen. However, subject to the cost of LCD panel cutting, the price of large-size LCD TVs remains high, which makes people prohibitive. Like the 490,000 LeTV Super TVs mentioned at the beginning of the article, the high cost has drastically reduced the overall TV's price/performance ratio. The appearance of ultra-short-focus high-definition home projectors has made large-screen movies more simple. In terms of screen size, the projector clearly has inherent advantages. Even if it is an entry-level 1080P HD projector with five or six thousand yuan, it can be easily projected. A 200-inch screen, at this point can be said to have the advantage of LCD TV can not be compared.

490,000 120-inch LCD TV really can't afford it

However, there may be a friend who will say that the projector has no way to see the image of the screen during the intense daylight. It can only be used when the light is turned off. This makes the practicality of the HD home projection much lower. So how do we crack this problem? Is this light-resistant curtain mated with the BenQ i910 really useful? We will wait and see.




Before we begin the experience, I will briefly introduce the relevant configuration parameters of the BenQ i910 ultra-throw TV for everyone. The i910 is an ultra-short-focus HD home projector. It takes only 0.6 meters to project a 100-inch screen. The right and left distances are enough, even if your home is a small apartment, there is no need to worry about space. In addition, the i910 uses DLP projection technology with a nominal brightness of 3200 lumens and a resolution of 1280x800. The anti-light curtain mating with this model uses a sawtooth structure, mainly composed of three parts, namely black light absorption layer, light transmission layer and reflection layer. Light is reflected and absorbed by the black absorbing layer with a special coating above it, thus blocking most of the ambient light interference. The lower light-transmitting layer can normally reflect the light from the ultra-short-throw projector, so it looks clear even when the light is strong during the day.

◆◆◆◆i910 Super-television TV?

The main role played in this set of ultra-throw TV is BenQ's i910 ultra-short-focus high-definition home projector, then what is the ultra-short-focus technology in the end? This technology is really good where? Here I simply to introduce everyone. Short-throw projectors generally have one parameter, the projection ratio. The smaller the projection ratio = projection distance/screen width ratio, the same projection distance, the greater the width of the projection screen. In general, if the projection ratio is less than 1, we define it as a short-focus projector. The ratio of the projection ratio is generally directly marked as a decimal number, such as 0.61, 0.47, and so on. The numerical value of the projection ratio can be simply understood as that the smaller the numerical value is, the better the effect of short focus is.

About the projection ratio can be simply divided into three categories: the first category, the lens projection ratio is less than 0.4, mostly reflective ultra-short-focus projector; the second category, the projection ratio of products between 0.4 to 0.7, can be referred to It is an ultra-short focus projector; the third type is an ordinary short focus product with a lens projection ratio of between 0.65 and 1.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of projectors using ultra-short-focus technology? Theoretically, non-short-focus projectors project 100-inch screens with a distance of more than 3 meters; short-focus models, with a projection distance of less than 2 meters. . According to test experience, the majority of today's selling models, ordinary projectors, the actual projection distance between 3.1 meters to 3.8 meters; short focal models, the general actual projection distance within 1.8 meters; ultra-short focal model, at 1.1 meters Within. The obvious advantage is that ultra-short focal models greatly shorten the projection distance and are not easily constrained by the type of the house. Ultra-short focal machines like the BenQ i910 can be placed on television sets.

So, besides these advantages of the short-focus projector mentioned above, are there any shortcomings? Of course, there will be, due to cost, some short-focus projectors will suffer from picture distortion, brightness and color unevenness. Phenomenon, so before buying or remind everyone to look at our ZOL projector channel related evaluation articles to help you simple and direct understanding of the product.


BenQ i910's function buttons are designed on one side of the fuselage, including the power button, input source, arrow keys, confirmation keys, menu keys, etc.

Interface close-up

In the interface part, BenQ i910 is equipped with a HDMI interface, two VGA interfaces and three USB interfaces, as well as audio input and output interfaces. If you use a dual HDMI interface design, it will be more convenient for us to use.

Dapeng has something to say: In this part, I briefly introduced the relevant knowledge of the projector's short-focus technology, including the merits and demerits of performance. BenQ i910 as a practical ultra-short-focus home projector, BenQ has always maintained a professional line in the shape design, process and materials are not too picky place. But in terms of interface design, if we can provide an additional HDMI interface, I believe it will be more convenient for users.

◆◆◆◆Simple and easy to use intelligent system

BenQ i910 as a high-definition home smart projector, using ultra-short focus technology in hardware, and with a 100-inch light curtain and LCD TVs can form a positive PK. What about performance on the content side?

In this part of the system, whether it is a lightweight i300 or this ultra-television TV i910, BenQ's entire smart projection product line uses a BenQ-developed Android-based smart operating system. The unified system greatly reduces the user's difficulty in use. . In addition, the BenQ i910 also offers 50 new cinema films + 30 Hollywood movies + regularly updated US dramas, variety shows, etc., in terms of the richness and quality of our actual film sources, BenQ's system It is worthy of recognition, enough to meet the needs of most families for daily entertainment.

◆◆◆◆ House of Cards + Impossible + Speed ​​& Passion

Whether it is LCD TVs or projectors, I believe that the main purpose of each family is to watch movies and TV programs. How about the effect of BenQ's i910 playing HD movies? We have chosen several videos that we are all very familiar with, as well as American dramas like Solitaire. Houses, Mission Impossibles, Speed ​​and Passion were shot as test samples, and Wolverine and other movies were watched online. Let's take a look at the actual shooting results. (Restricted to the shooting equipment and the reasons for the following real shot screen only represents the test model)

From the above real shot chart we can see that both the pattern behind Frank's curtain and the black folds on the back of the chair are very clear, and the details of the shadows are not lost. In addition, the character's face and tie details are also clearly visible. Description BenQ i910 high contrast, light and dark details handled properly.


The color of the characters and the color of the suit are too natural and dark.


The facial brightness of the three characters are compared with the Tomoko white shirt. The phenomenon has been exposed. This shows that the brightness of BenQ i910 is relatively high, and after our actual test, BenQ i910's peak brightness reached 2926 lumens, for daily For home use, it is more than enough.


The entire screen gives people a feeling of vivid color, and the saturation of color is not very high. This may have a certain relationship with BenQ's i910 color tuning.

Whether we choose to evaluate the sample or watch the movie online through the BenQ i910's built-in smart system, the overall picture quality of the BenQ i910 is relatively bright and delicate, and the details of the lighting are very natural. There is no loss of details in the shadows. This is directly related to the brightness and contrast performance of BenQ i901. In addition, online viewing of high-definition movies is also very smooth, the overall color saturation is not very high, we will conduct more detailed tests in the following color testing sessions.

◆◆◆◆Color contrast close to the original

Color testing is a routine testing project for projector testing. It mainly tests the color reproduction ability of the projector and the color saturation, lightness, color richness, and the color temperature of the projector by comparing the test sample with the color real shot diagram. Here we take a look at the color performance of BenQ i901. (Constrained by shooting equipment, the actual view is better than the real shot)


(The left side of the test sample is the BenQ i910 color real shot map)

From the above two sets of color real shot diagrams, the BenQ i910's color brightness is slightly higher than the original, in addition to the black and orange on the wall as the concentration is higher than the original, indicating that the i910's color saturation is higher For test samples. In addition, BenQ i910's color real shots show a cool tone with a higher color temperature than the original.


(The left side of the test sample is the BenQ i910 color real shot map)

From this character close-up we can clearly find that BenQ i910's real shot screen brightness is significantly higher than the original figure, the face color brightness is much higher than the original figure. In addition, details such as the character's hair and back skirt have been preserved, indicating that the contrast of this machine is still quite high.


(The left side of the test sample is the BenQ i910 color real shot map)

Through the picture of this group of swimmers, we can clearly see that the picture of BenQ i910 is obviously colder, and the color temperature value is higher than the original figure. However, the overall brightness of the screen is still very high, but also confirmed from the side of the measured peak brightness of 2926 lumens.


(The left side of the test sample is the BenQ i910 color real shot map)

In the four-color map, we can see that the color reproduction of the BenQ i910 is still very close to the original. In addition to the obvious color cast in yellow, red and blue are very close to the original. Overall, BenQ i910's color tuning is still very close to the original test, which allows more ordinary users can enjoy the authentic video.

◆◆◆◆Focus test is sharp and sharp

Focus test mainly through the fixed PPT test document to examine the focus of the projector accuracy, generally for high-definition home projector, due to the large size of the ventilation effect is good, combined with the use of pure glass lens in the part close to the light source, so it is not prone to heat loss The phenomenon of coke. So what is the focusing effect of this i910 with ultra-short focus technology?


The numbers in the center of the screen and the letters on the edges are relatively clear


The letters in the center of the document and in the ellipse are very clearly projected


There is no ambiguity in PPT between Chinese and English

From the above three PPT we can see that the BenQ i910's focusing system is still very reliable, whether it is the letter or Chinese, the center of the picture and the position of the corners around are very clear, there is no fuzzy chaos, virtual The phenomenon of coke.

◆◆◆◆ Is the light curtain really resistant to light?

As my title stated, PK LeTV’s 450,000 TVs. For projectors, if you want to overcome the traditional LCD TVs, the first thing you need to address is the brightness problem. How to project clear and bright images during daylight when the light is strong? . The BenQ i910 over-projection TV not only has simply increased the brightness output of the projector itself, but after our actual measurement, the peak brightness reached 2926 lumens, which is very close to the nominal 3200 lumens. And with this piece of optical anti-light curtain itself has a strong anti-light properties. Let's start with a simple look at the GIF animation under different lighting conditions. Among them, the author chose three different lighting conditions: full-on LED lights for offices, darkrooms, and conference venues.


The i910's screen effects in three different light conditions: full LED lighting, full dark room and conference site

Such as BenQ's ultra-short-focus television and some laser televisions, plays a key Mr. or match the anti-light curtain, according to the author's understanding, this professional anti-light curtain is generally used saw tooth structure, mainly composed of three parts, namely Black light absorption layer, translucent layer, reflective layer. Light is reflected and absorbed by the black absorbing layer with a special coating above it, thus blocking most of the ambient light interference. The lower light-transmitting layer can normally reflect the light from the ultra-short-throw projector, so it still looks very clear during the day when the light is strong. In addition, the BenQ i910 this set of 100-inch ultra-throw TV was only 15,999 yuan. Cost-effective than the same size LCD TV.

How to adjust the corner position?


Adjust the corner position

According to the author's understanding, in order to facilitate the user, BenQ i910 over-throw TV each provides on-site installation services, including curtain debugging and so on. And each BenQ i910 also provides a corner position adjustment function for users to use in the process of self-debugging, I also used this very practical function in the test, but for more non-professional For people, it's still a little tedious. However, there are still some tips when adjusting, it is best to put one or two corners of the screen in the curtain frame, and then adjust the other two in turn. When using, you only need to press the menu button on the remote control and select corner adjustment.

Dapeng has something to say: This optical anti-light curtain mated to the i910 has already attracted my interest as early as the BenQ's smart projection conference. In the case of mild scene lighting, the picture quality is very clear and bright. While testing in our evaluation room, although the LED lighting for office use was very strong, BenQ's optical anti-light curtain still stood the test, as we demonstrated in the animated GIF, it effectively resisted the strong The LED lighting provides a relatively clear picture quality and is very practical.

◆◆◆◆ Speak with the data evaluation summary

The projector's data testing mainly examines the following aspects: maximum brightness, peak brightness, optimized brightness, and contrast color of the projector. Below, the author first explained several more difficult to understand the technical terminology: First is the peak brightness, especially in the brightest mode, the highest brightness that a single point can reach, generally appear in the center; maximum brightness, refers to the brightest In the mode, the average brightness of the picture can be reached, and the value of the reference value is higher. The optimized brightness, also known as ANSI brightness, is the average brightness of the 13 test points in the case that the projector can just distinguish eight gray scales. Brightness = average illuminance × area.


Eight gray levels and 13 illumination test points


BenQ i910 test results

data analysis:

After our actual test, the BenQ i910's peak brightness reached 2926 lumens, very close to the nominal 3200 lumens, and the optimized brightness was 2240 lumens. Enough to meet the needs of our average home.

Power test

(left side is standby power right side is default power consumption)



(On the left is the power saving power consumption and the right is the smart energy saving power)

One hour after power on, we used a professional power tester to test the power consumption of the BenQ i910 ultra-throw TV. After our actual measurement, the power consumption of the i910 was 0.31 watts in the standby mode, and the default power consumption was 291.31 watts. The power consumption in the electric mode is 209.72 watts, and the power consumption in the smart energy-saving mode is 284.35 watts.

There are words in two words:

Laughing at the 490,000 TVs may sound like some grandstanding, but after reading this review, I believe you will have your own judgment. The price of 490,000 yuan can buy a house in a third-tier city. BenQ's official price of this 100-inch ultra-throw TV is only 15,999 yuan. A difference of 31 times. BenQ i910 not only provides free on-site installation services, in terms of price, i910 hundred-inch ultra-throw TV can be said to be dumped music as Umax120 several streets. In addition, the easy-to-use operating system, the introduction of each year 50 new movies + 30 Hollywood blockbusters + regular monthly updates of the US drama, variety shows, etc., in terms of content BenQ i910 can be said to take advantage. The 100-inch optical light curtain mating with the BenQ i910 also performed very well in our evaluation process. The display was very clear under different lighting conditions. Therefore, it could completely replace the traditional LCD TV and become a family. The main force of audio and video entertainment.
