Good value home projector, Great color and contrast, Superb brightness for the money
Not a true 4K projector, Chunky design, No built-in streaming apps
At this price, too, the TK850 is a great all-round option, able to output movies, games, and sports matches with an impressive level of contrast and color. The variety of zoom and focusing tools at your disposal too mean you're fully able to tweak the TK8...

Android TV offers a better streaming experience,Bright, vivid colors,3,000 lumens,98% Rec. 709 coverage,4K HDR support,Shorter throw distance,Lens shift,Auto-keystone
Android TV via dongle,Light "shadow border",Takes a few seconds to toggle HDR mode,$300 is a lot to pay just for Android TV
Even though it uses a dongle that requires installation, Android TV on the BenQ TK850i is a much better experience than the Aptoide TV software used on the BenQ TK810. The TK850i builds on the already excellent TK850 and adds Android TV for an all-in-one...
True 4k resolution (4k grid resolves perfectly), High lumen count (3000 lumens), Dynamic iris (higher black levels when used with an ALR screen), Support for HDR10, Sports mode, Auto keystone, Vertical lens shift
Low color depth and black levels (to be expected from a living room projector)
If you are someone that wants to use a projector without the hassle of constructing a dedicated home theater and blackout room then the TK850 is for you. Combining it with an ALR screen offers incredible value and BenQ has packed in a ton of features that...
Abstract: The $1,699 BenQ TK850 (offered promotionally at $1,499 as of this posting) and $1,799 Optoma UHD52ALV 4K projectors are about as directly competitive as two projectors can be. Both support both HDR 10 and HLG versions of HDR and both deliver 4K resolution...

Abstract: We're playing a bit of catchup here and as you may have noticed, we just recently published our BenQ TK800M Sports Projector review. It's definitely a solid and bright projector but the company has a newer version out. In addition, the company offers up...

Abstract: After our 4K projector roundup last fall, we received a BenQ HT3550 and a BenQ TK850 to see if they could challenge the Epson Home Cinema 5050UB in real-world 4K performance for a much cheaper price. The HT3550 did not disappoint. But the TK850 also makes...
4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution from TI's fast-switching pixel shifting, 47-inch DMD chip, Designed for sports and TV programs in family rooms with ambient light-rated at 3,000 ANSI lumens vs. 2,000 ANSI lumens for the nearly identical HT3550, HDR10 and
High brightness level is at the expense of some color accuracy and dark-black levels, as demonstrated by comparison to the HT3550, which delivers higher color accuracy and darker blacks but lower brightness, Input lag is too high for serious gamers
Abstract: The $1,699 BenQ HT3550 (currently available for $1,499) and $1,699 TK850 are all but identical in specs, features, and physical design. But what few differences there are put them worlds apart in functionality. Quite simply, the HT3550 delivers a wider co...
