High-resolution, dynamic range are some of the talking points when it comes to gaming on a large screen. Lower latency is another important feature that is seldom discussed and while some TVs have started integrating it with a dedicated game mode, many projectors are yet to make that transition. BenQ’s TH585, however, is an exception. It comes with an enhanced game mode and lower latency for an improved gaming experience.

The BenQ TH585 is a compact and lightweight projector that can be placed on a table that is supported with height-adjustable legs or can be ceiling-mounted. There’s digital lens shift that allows to offset the projection by some margin and supports vertical keystone of up to +/- 30 degrees. Moreover, the projector supports 1.1x zoom and throw ratio of 1.50 ~ 1.65 that lets one project images in 100-inch size from a distance of 3.32m. Either way, it’s easy to setup and get it running.

Design-wise, the TH585 does not look that different from the other BenQ projectors we have seen in the past. It comes in BenQ’s matte-white finish with exhaust vents on the front and right-hand side for heat dissipation. Physical keys to control the projector are placed on the top along with zoom and focus ring to adjust the lens. At the back are the connectivity options like two HDMI ports, audio-in and audio-out ports, one, USB Type-A port, RS-232 and two D-sub ports (input and output). BenQ also bundles a compact remote control that makes controlling the projector easier.
