Only True Colours Convey Deep Feelings

Factory Calibrated Out-of-the-Box Colour Accuracy
Using special instruments and software, W1700M is tested and adjusted for precise D65 colour temperature, gamma, black level, white level, neutral grey, RGBCMY colour tracking, hue, saturation, brightness and output based on ITU-R Rec.709. All data from multiple interfaces is compiled for individual factory calibration reports.

Hyper-Realistic Video Quality with HDR
Supercharged by HDR10 support with BenQ exclusive projector-optimised HDR, W1700M’s high dynamic range performance offers greater brightness, contrast range, and image optimisation in a single step, bringing out every detail in 4K video content for superior cinema enjoyment.
Auto HDR Natural Colour Mapping for Lifelike Colour Realism
Unlike other HDR projectors with biased colour temperature, BenQ Auto HDR Natural Colour Mapping technology unleashes breathtaking 4K HDR visuals with perfectly lifelike colour performance automatically tuned to reflect nature.

Cinema-Optimised HDR Preserves Dark Details
While other HDR projectors can lose details and display incorrect greyscales, BenQ features cinema-optimised HDR technology to perfectly balance colour saturation and rich colour scale, preserving dark details in total clarity.

The Art and Craft of Home Theatre
4K UHD True 8.3 Million Pixel Perfection
Producing 4K UHD 3840x2160 resolution with 8.3 million distinct pixels for each frame, W1700M utilizes new generation 0.47” single-DMD DLP technology to minimize the projector’s sleek, compact profile for modern lifestyles. With four times the resolution of Full HD 1080p, 4K UHD reduces pixel blur for awe-inspiring clarity and crisply defined fine details.


Accurate Colour and Image Integrity
With single DMD DLP technology to avoid inherent alignment issues of multiple panels, W1700M ensures immaculate image integrity and colour accuracy. W1700M generates razor-sharp images and accurate colours devoid of artifacting such as blur, shadowing, and interference patterns for immaculate clarity.

Flawless Optics for Superb Image Quality
The BenQ 4K optical system uses only the highest grade glass for superior light penetration and realistic image quality. Proprietary low-dispersion lens coatings minimize chromatic aberration, so you can enjoy your favourite 4K UHD content in brilliant clarity.
