BenQ HT3550I Overview

Enjoy your favorite streaming content with the white BenQ CinePrime Series HT3550i 2000-Lumen HDR XPR 4K UHD DLP Home Theater Projector. It includes a wireless adapter with the Android TV operating system onboard, providing access to thousands of apps like Amazon Prime Video.

The HT3550i outputs up to 2000 lumens of brightness with a native resolution of Full HD, but XPR technology enables 4K UHD resolution to be projected onto your screen or wall. It features dual built-in 5W speakers and a digital coaxial and an analog audio output.

Note:
Netflix is not natively supported by the included Android TV adapter. To use Netflix, a separate source is required. A Google account and an available Wi-Fi network are required for Android TV use. Please see the manufacturer's website for more information.
XPR Technology Projects 4K UHD Resolution
XPR technology combines image processing with the ability of the DMD's mirrors to shift at the microsecond level to allow each mirror to project multiple pixels per frame, creating a 4K UHD image from an otherwise non-UHD chip.
Powered by Android TV
The included Android TV adapter keeps your favorite content easy to access. Enjoy over 5000 Android apps for quick access to movies, TV shows, live sports, news, games, music, and more. One-button access to Amazon Prime Video lets you watch Prime originals and a variety of 4K movies and shows quickly and easily. The included adapter also provides Wi-Fi connectivity for app access.
CinematicColor Technology
CinematicColor technology is designed to provide accurate and enhanced images by meeting 95% of the DCI-P3 color space and 100% of the Rec.709 color space. A high contrast ratio and ISFccc certified calibration help ensure vibrant images with detailed, sharp, crisp visuals.
Enhanced Color Mapping Realism
Onboard color mapping technology is engineered to provide vibrant visuals with lifelike colors that are automatically tuned to reflect natural hues when viewing DCI-P3 4K Blu-ray content.
Designed for Out-of-the-Box Color Accuracy
The HT3550i is factory tested and adjusted for D65 color temperature, gamma, black level, white level, neutral gray, RGBCMY color tracking, hue, saturation, brightness, and output based on ITU-R Rec.709.
ISFccc Certified Visual Calibration
By incorporating ISFccc Certified Visual Calibration, image and color performance can be customized for nearly any space, along with pre-set light balance modes for day and night.
HDR-PRO Technology
Optimized for projection, HDR-PRO technology enhances 4K HDR content with greater contrast range through enhanced tone mapping to augment detail from 4K Blu-rays and streaming content.
Cinema-Optimized Tone Mapping with Dynamic Iris & Dynamic Black Technology
These technologies address common HDR projector detail and grayscale issues with enhanced contrast and detail.
HDR Optimized Adaptive Brightness
HDR brightness optimization expands contrast range to augment image quality when HDR is activated to provide more realistic video.
HDR10 & HLG Support
Enjoy vibrant visuals in your compatible Blu-ray and streaming content.
Optimized Movie Modes
These movie modes are tailored for home cinema and film-like motion as their directors intended.
  • D.Cinema Mode provides wide-ranging colors and subtle details in movies utilizing the full Rec.709 color gamut to showcase detailed SDR (standard dynamic range) content in a comfortable A/V room environment.
  • HDR Mode (with Wide Color Gamut enabled) lets you view 4K HDR Blu-ray movies and streaming HLG content in HDR and accurate color with HDR-PRO technology and up to 95% of the DCI-P3 color space.
  • Cinema Mode enables heightened brightness to reproduce Rec.709 color accuracy for enjoying SDR movies in higher ambient brightness.
  • HDR Mode expands brightness to bring out natural details in 4K HDR Blu-rays and HLG streaming content in Rec.709 with HDR-PRO technology in bright rooms.
24p Cinematic Framerate
The HT3550i supports 24 fps playback for an authentic viewing experience. HD content is displayed without judder in HDR Mode, so your 4K movies will be displayed at the correct cadence without pulldowns, which can distort playback of the source video.
10-Element 4K-Optimized Glass Lens Array
The optical system uses a 10-element, eight-group lens array to provide greater light penetration for long-lasting 4K intensity and enhanced color performance, clarity, and sharpness across the entire screen.
DLP Technology for Accurate Color and Image Integrity
DMD DLP technology avoids alignment issues encountered in multiple-panel technology. The HT3550i generates sharp images and accurate colors devoid of artifacts such as blur, shadowing, and interference patterns.
4K Pixel Enhancer
The Pixel Enhancer detects changes in color between objects and their backgrounds, then enhances sharp edges and precise surface textures through motion-adaptive technology.
Motion Enhancer
This technology helps eliminate laggy images, jittery playback, and blurry shadows by inserting 36 interpolated frames to provide a more seamless 60 fps video.
Color Enhancer
The Color Enhancer modulates complex color algorithms to render saturated colors, fine gradients, intermediate hues, and subtle pigments more accurately.
CinemMaster Audio+ 2
This audio-enhancing technology uses EQ algorithms to provide pure clarity and enhanced sound quality as used by Hollywood studios.
Flexible Adjustment for Screen Alignment
The projector features 1.3x zoom with vertical lens shift to help simplify installation in nearly any space. The zoom system automatically adjusts to follow focus adjustments, regardless of screen size. This results in virtually perfect focus for enhanced clarity across the entire image. Auto vertical keystone makes it simple to project properly squared images from a variety of locations. Additionally, 10% vertical lens shift lets the projector fit into nearly any room with varied projection distances and heights for simple replacement of legacy projectors.
Enhanced Connectivity
One of the USB Type-A ports supports USB 3.0 for 5 Gb/s data transfers. USB multimedia playback lets you project video, audio, and pictures directly from your thumb drive without a cable. Firmware upgrades via USB keep the projector operating at peak efficiency for simple operation and maintenance.
