120 Hz Gaming Projector?! BenQ TH685i HDR Console Gaming Projector with Android TV: Fully Tested

[@FdScallopedPotatoes]

I thought this channel was shut down? I haven't watched Tek Syndicate in years, but it is good to finally see them back.

[@tatsumaru12345]

Do you remember love? 745$ without the android stick, it's a very reasonable price. 120hz itll pair well with even the new consoles

[@Lilrockerdude13]

Dude Grover is a freakin super hero, your move Elmo!

[@ApexLodestar]

I appreciate that he didn't edit out him fumbling while messing with the back of the projector and accidentally knocking the dongle down. 😆🤣

[@shaunn6971]

it was frustrating, but we got through it

[@GolfJulietBravo]

5:32 - I recognize ALL of those shows because that's all I get to watch...EVER. Man, having a kid is fun!

[@zleepyjan]

Thank you, great review!

[@nervaproject]

Why would anyone want a gaming projector? Price says its $900. For that price, you could get a Valve Index that is higher resolution and has a bigger image from the perspective of the viewer. Or if you want something higher resolution, you could go with the HP Reverb G2 for $700, which would also probably give you a bigger image than that projector but with an FOV smaller than the Index, and the image would be 3D and extremely high resolution. Projectors seem like they were something I would have found exciting in 2008 that has now become obsolete because of virtual reality.

[@israelquezada0454]

2 different things.

[@lorenzoocchipinti9120]

I own a HP reverb G2 and I'm getting a BenQ TH685i, 1) you can connect PS5 on it, playing flat games from PC, 2) when temperature is warm and hot it's very annoying use VR for whatching a movie for 2 hours, 3) you can have a very real big screen in your room for watch everething. They are two different things, you can't play flat games on VR headset, as you can't play VR games on the projectors.

[@googlefanNOLONGERPOSTING]

Can I mount it on the ceiling

[@blakecollins7297]

Can you use the Bluetooth on the stick to link to a speaker

[@fayev9023]

Can you recommend any projectors just for watching movies and such? I've been thinking about getting one 🤔

[@tatsumaru12345]

My viewsonic 700hd goes for 380$ all the time. No 4k or hdr, but 1080p at 110" looks phenomenal

[@realjcav]

i was so confused about the 1 hdmi port until you showed that the smart stick was removable to free up a 2nd hdmi port. relieved af haha.. was gonna be so disappointed to only have one hdmi

[@FreeD00M]

I recommed loooking into Optoma UHD42 / UHD50X

[@AngadAnand1]

Just to clarify, this Is a 1080p projector

[@IND4GR0V3]

I have a NEC projector thats 3x the size of that was like 4000 usd retail got it for 250 off ebay does 120hz at 1920x1200 5000 lumens tested its 25ms latency which is not great but its not horrible for playing i wouldn't play fps on it

[@mpgpopeye3248]

The Optoma uhd 30 has 240hz in 1080p

[@vincentwalker3280]

Can a USB or HDMI 4 port switch be used on this to add more connectivity?

[@jasonzbell]

How do you (or anyone who sees this) think this projector would fare as a dedicated sim racing setup/room through an Xbox One X?

[@lorenzoocchipinti9120]

I have an issue with this projector, when I try to set 120hz in 1080 on my PC with RTX 3080 It goes crazy and don't find the source. I'm using HDMI Cable 2.1 for 8K, it works only in 1080p 60hz, or 4K 60hz. I tried to use different HDMI cables bu the issue remain.

[@danieljohnson5849]

Will firesticks work on this?

[@damzelfly]

What is your First and Second Projector?

[@Beamber]

Damn. Do you get more used to DLP rainbows over time? They are very visible in this video

[@EspenFrafalne]

Thanks for pointing this out! Was considering getting this, but i do NOT deal with rainbows..!

[@Beamber]

@@EspenFrafalne I wonder if the video recording is making it worse and it’s not quite as visible in person. I guess one doesn’t know until you get it home. Wish I could demo it somewhere

[@3ric585]

Does it play PC & console at 120hz?

[@3ric585]

Nvm, just read the title

[@Fareg3R]

But will it run Crysis ?

[@itsdeonlol]

I haven't seen an Android TV in years...

[@mug963]

[@p4l4d1n7]

4000 hours, so is there an option to switch out the light?

[@unrealevi1]

Yes you can purchase replacement lamps for around $150.

[@chris307]

Who has cable anymore? Let it die.

[@ktfjulien]

will you be doing a ps5 review?

[@teksyndicate]

Nah

[@ktfjulien]

@@teksyndicate shame

[@illyaswan]

Hey, bud! Is this projector being displayed as a 120hz monitor in your PC's display settings? For me, it's always set to only 29hz without any visible option to switch to 120hz. Really struggling with this since 120hz is the main reason I picked this projector over competition.

[@MFcitrous]

Have you resolved this? Also leaning towards this one due to high refresh, windows settings are tricky with TV/PC settings and refresh rates these days

[@illyaswan]

@@MFcitrous yes! Had to set "extend" screens instead of mirroring in windows settings, then make the projector a primary monitor, then make sure the resolution is set to 1080p and refresh rate to 120hz in windows and nvidia control panel. Easy, right? 😁

[@pronoP2]

@2:40 which is app is he using?

[@dylancarson4538]

Plex media server
