    Key Features

    Superior Short-throw Projection with 100” of Big-Screen Enjoyment

    Spectacular Full HD 1080p Picture Performance

    Side Projection with Horizontal Keystone Correction

    Flexible Zoom for Extra Installation Freedom

    Short-throw Projection with 100” of Big-Screen Enjoyment

    Built with BenQ's world-leading short-throw projection technology, the HT1085ST gives you 100” of big-screen home entertainment fun at less than 5 feet--freeing you from space constraints, shadow disruptions, and glares from the projection light. Plus, with more installation flexibility and extra space, you can even make room for motion-sensing video games to enjoy with friends and family.

    Spectacular Full HD 1080p Picture Performance

    The HT1085ST spoils your eyes with true-to-life image quality brought to you by BenQ's 1080p Full HD optimized optical system. The HT1085ST is built with Texas Instrument’s advanced DarkChip3 DLP Technology, which projects higher brightness and deeper black levels by filling in the area where the digital micro mirror connects to its hinge to produce smooth, film-like image quality. So you can enjoy your favorite HD multimedia content with the best clarity and sharpness--from Blu-ray DVDs to video games and HD broadcasting.

    Side Projection with Horizontal Keystone Correction

    The horizontal, or side-to-side, keystone correction feature comes in handy when you have a hard time clearing up your living room table or finding an ideal placement for the HT1085ST. By enabling you to correct the trapezoid effect, which occurs when a projector is placed off center, this feature offers you the flexibility you need to turn unused corners or space, such as the side table, into the perfect place for the HT1085ST.

    Flexible Zoom for Extra Installation Freedom

    Say goodbye to changing your home décor to accommodate your projector or stacking books under it to fix the projection position. The HT1085ST is built to free up your living space with a 1.2x flexible zoom that supports remodeling-free projector installation with an impressive range of projection distances.

    Customers like the brightness of the video projector. They mention that it has good enough brightness at night, is good for evening viewing and low light rooms, and is more superior in the dark. They also appreciate the backlit remote and the clear, visible picture. The colors are deep and the black level is very dark. The bulb itself lasts so far and there is no dimming. Day view is possible but not convincing. However, some customers are shocked by how clear the picture is.

    36 customers mention17 positive19 negative

    Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the video projector. Some mention that the sound is adequate if you don't want to bring speakers outside with you, the 10W speaker is really loud, and the built-in speaker is actually quite good. However, others say that the fan was a little louder than expected, the audio is not great, very flat, and high pitch sounds leave them deaf. The fan noise is slightly more noticable than GT750e but when you play movies, that is barely noticeable.

    "...PROSColors are amazing, sharp, vibrant. I like the integrated speaker, but hate that it has poor integration and does not provide a better..." Read more

    "...It also has (or mine, at least) a fairly noisy fan which can be annoying during very quiet scenes, so again, I recommend not using this projector..." Read more

    "...The speakers are loud enough for small rooms, but do get yourself a nice portable set if you want a good quality you want to take around." Read more

    "...1st-Audio volume level is quite horrible, it has 10 levels; 1-10. At 1 it is just a little too quiet however at 2 its simply too loud...." Read more

    I'm in HD 3D heaven in my living room.
    5 Stars
    I'm in HD 3D heaven in my living room.
    I am completely impressed with this little machine. Used to, I thought you had to spend over 2grand to get a decent projector. Even my gf said she thinks the image will be blurry before I bought it. She ate her words with a slice of HD pie.The picture of this is so crisp and clear, you'd think it was a TV. The colors are so deep. The black level is very dark but not the industry best. If I were to be critical of this machine, I'd say well the black levels could be better, but then I'd have to spend a few thousand. The thing is, I'm too satisfied to want anything else. Completely content. Your eyes do enough work to make blacks black anyways by way of optics. I've never thought once in the over 30hrs I've spent using this, that the black levels could be darker. I'm only scrutinizing because I know what's possible in other projectors.3D:Ive watched 3d in movie theaters and...... I like this 3d better lol. That sounds stupid but I have a 137 inch screen now, front row seats and the 3d is so unbelievable.I mean me and my gf were so giddy with amazement when we began to see just how immersive it is. Now watching 3d movies is a big event at my house.(BTW Jurassic Park 3d was the best 3d experience I've ever)I highly recommend this projector. You couldn't possibly be unsatisfied with this.It requires active 3d shutter glasses.My 137 inches was achieved with about.... 7ft from the screen.Oh by the way, I've yet to notice a "rainbow effect". Maybe it's just me.I've attached a few photos. One is in a dark room. One in dimmed ambient light. And another of my setup screen. I used paint.
