The [BenQ HT2050A Home Theater Projector](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=BenQ+HT2050A+Home+Theater+Projector&tag=thetestedhub-20) remains my favorite for dark rooms. Colors pop and the lens shift saves real installation headaches.

Quick answers
Yes. For dedicated home theater and big-screen gaming BenQ's color accuracy and lamp longevity still beat most rivals.
Not unless your screen is over 120 inches or you're sitting unusually close. A solid 1080p BenQ looks excellent at typical viewing distances.
