The BenQ W2700 is a well-regarded lamp-based 4K DLP projector known for its natural color reproduction and robust feature set, including HDR10 and wide colour gamut support. At A$1,500, the asking price sits just above the 75th percentile (A$1,426) of recent comparable AUD listings, making it slightly ambitious rather than a bargain, though still within a reasonable range for an excellent-condition unit. Given the Ground Truth median is A$1,382, this price reflects a seller who values the projector’s condition and performance, but a buyer might negotiate closer to A$1,400–A$1,426 for better value.
This projector remains a worthwhile buy due to its long lamp life (up to 15,000 hours in Eco mode), genuine 4K UHD resolution via pixel-shifting, and strong contrast ratio of 30,000:1. It delivers natural, TV-like colour accuracy with 95% DCI-P3 coverage and includes useful features like a dynamic iris and built-in 5W speakers. With no noted failure points specific to this model and an “excellent” condition rating, this listing offers a solid opportunity for home theatre enthusiasts seeking a reliable, high-performance 4K projector without the premium of newer laser models.

BenQ traces its roots to Taiwan, emerging in 1984 as Continental Systems Inc., a contract manufacturing subsidiary of Acer founded by industry pioneer Stan Shih and his associates. The company rebranded to BenQ in 2001–2002, adopting its name from the slogan "Bringing Enjoyment 'N' Quality to Life," marking a shift from OEM production to building its own global identity in consumer electronics. Headquartered in Taipei with operations spanning multiple continents, BenQ quickly scaled, surpassing $4 billion in sales by 2003 through peripherals like LCD monitors and optical drives.
While renowned for DLP projectors—holding the top global spot in sales and short-throw models—BenQ's audio offerings remain niche and emerging. Recent ventures include the Trevolo U smart speaker tailored for online learning with voice-accentuating tech, alongside ventures into high-design LED lighting that hints at broader lifestyle audio integration. Traditional hi-fi categories like amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables do not feature prominently in their core lineup.
BenQ occupies a mid-tier position in the broader consumer tech market, excelling in accessible, innovative visuals and displays rather than dedicated high-end hi-fi. For audiophiles, it appeals as a value-driven entrant in smart audio rather than a vintage or boutique specialist; its reputation rests on reliable, feature-packed tech over pure sonic refinement. Knowledgeable buyers may find select pieces intriguing for hybrid setups, though purists seek elsewhere for specialist audio gear.
