Form factorBasic form of the projector, in this order: if it sits right in front of the wall as an ultra-short-throw unit, it is a laser TV. If it has a built-in battery, it is mini & portable – even with a stand. A swivel stand or gimbal without a battery means compact with swivel stand. Everything else is classic, for table or ceiling.

Verdict
Pros & cons
Der BenQ TK710 ist ein heller 4K-Laserbeamer, der vor allem für Spieler gemacht ist: 17 ms Input Lag bei 4K und ein scharfes Bild auf 100 Zoll auch bei Raumlicht. Filme zeigt er ordentlich, doch Schwarz bleibt ein dunkles Grau, und HDR-Farben fallen blass aus. Im Alltag ist der Lüfter in leisen Szenen hörbar; für Netflix und guten Ton brauchst du Stick und Soundbar.
Pros
- Input Lag von 17 ms bei 4K/60 Hz und 8 ms bei 120 Hz
- Scharfes 4K-Bild per Pixel-Shift auch auf 100 Zoll
- Bild bleibt bei Raumlicht auf 100 Zoll gut ansehbar
- Optischer Lens Shift und 1,3-fach-Zoom statt rein digitaler Korrektur
- Laserlichtquelle mit 20.000 Stunden, kein Lampenwechsel
- eARC am HDMI-Eingang leitet Dolby Atmos an die Soundbar
Cons
- Lüfter mit 35 bis 40 dB in leisen Filmszenen gut hörbar
- Schwarz nur dunkles Grau, nativer Kontrast etwa 1.456:1 bis 1.800:1
- DCI-P3 nur zu etwa 81 %, HDR-Farben wenig gesättigt
- Kein Smart-System und kein Netflix, nur 5-W-Mono-Lautsprecher
- Kein HDMI 2.1: kein VRR, 1440p/120 Hz wird auf 1080p heruntergerechnet
Der Epson EH-TW7100 ist ein heller 3LCD-Beamer mit Pixel-Shift-4K für Wohnzimmer mit etwas Restlicht. Rund 2.375 ANSI-Lumen und viel Spielraum durch Zoom und Lens-Shift machen ihn alltagstauglich, Apps brauchen aber einen Streaming-Stick. Der Haken: In Nachtszenen wirkt Schwarz grau, und im hellen Modus ist der Lüfter deutlich zu hören.
Pros
- Rund 2.375 ANSI-Lumen reichen für 100 Zoll bei etwas Restlicht
- Lens-Shift 60 % vertikal und 24 % horizontal, Zoom 1,62x
- 3LCD ohne Regenbogeneffekt, Farben so hell wie Weiß
- Bildmodi ab Werk brauchbar abgestimmt, kaum Kalibrierung nötig
- Im Eco-Modus leiser Betrieb
- Bluetooth-Tonausgabe mit aptX HD an Soundbar oder Kopfhörer
Cons
- Nativer Kontrast nur etwa 2.055:1, Schwarz wirkt in Nachtszenen grau
- Lüfter im hellen Modus mit über 50 dB gut hörbar
- Kein Smart-System und kein WLAN, Netflix nur per Streaming-Stick
- UHP-Lampe hält 3.500 Stunden, danach Lampenwechsel fällig
- Groß und schwer mit 6,9 kg, Lautsprecher für Filme zu schwach
