Maximized Wireless Full HD Enjoyment in Small Spaces

Features:

Cable-free, One-Stop Home Entertainment

New-Generation Wireless Full HD Kit (optional) Designed to Give You More Freedom and Less Hassle

The HT1085ST frees you from wiring troubles, placement hassles, as well as extra remodeling costs with BenQ's new-generation Wireless Full HD Kit. Available as an optional accessory, this powerful kit enables the HT1085ST to stream uncompressed, stunning 1080p Full HD content wirelessly – and with 3D support. So you can kick back, relax and enjoy your favorite movies and games!

- Absolute Convenience | One-Time Setup

Only a few steps are required to set up the kit once and for all to give you plug-and-play convenience like no other. Once everything is connected correctly, the transmitter and the receiver will automatically pair up with the HT1085ST the first time you power them on – and turn on to re-connect with the projector every time after. To save you from all the cable trouble, the customized receiver box can be easily mounted to the right side of the HT1085ST and electronically charged by the projector instead of taking up another power socket. It doesn't get easier than this.

- Unparalleled Transmission Technology | Fluid Cross-Room Streaming

The HT1085ST comes with a wireless coverage of up to 100 feet in distance at line of sight and four built-in antennas to ensure the best streaming quality through cabinet doors and from one room to the next. The home projector also delivers a latency-free performance ideal for playing fast-action and motion-sensing games. Time to get ready for high quality audiovisual enjoyment and the smoothest gaming experience in the living room or in the privacy of your bedroom.

*Transmission distance depends on actual environment. Stated distance is based on line-of-sight measurement. Structures constructed of steel, wood, concrete, or brick may decrease transmission distance.

- Zero Interference | DFS Anti-Interference Performance

With a Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) mechanism to automatically switch between channels when encountering signal interference, an incredibly stable HD streaming quality is all you'll get.

10W Immersive Sound Performance

The built-in 10W resonant chamber speaker is expertly tuned to enhance the HT1085ST's audio playback quality with deeper base tones – offering you a truly immersive audio performance that's free of stereo speaker wiring troubles. What's more, there are four preset sound modes and one equalizer setting available for you to match to the music of your choice for the most optimal audio enjoyment.

Projection Installation Flexibility

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.

Superior Short-throw Projection with 100" of Big-Screen Enjoyment at less than 5ft

Built with BenQ's world-leading short-throw projection technology, the HT1085ST gives you 100" of big-screen home entertainment fun at less than 5ft – 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!

Flexible Zoom & Lens Shift 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.

6X-Speed RGBRGB Color Wheel

A six-segment color wheel (RGBRGB) with six times the speed is adapted to produce incredibly realistic color depth and range – with BrilliantColor™ Technology further boosting every color to achieve a truly captivating, lifelike color performance. So you can enjoy the show in pure, living splendor.

Independent Color Management

BenQ's exclusive color management tool ensures 100% uncompromised color customization with the freedom and flexibility to independently fine-tune the hue and saturation levels of each of the six color wheel tones.

ISFccc® Certification for Professional Projection Calibration

Obtaining professional results is easy with the Imaging Science Foundation's highly reputed ISFccc® calibration service. Under the HT1085ST's ISF calibration menu, the ISF technicians can custom-calibrate the projector's image quality with optimized color performances to your home environment, along with two specialty modes – ISF Day and Night modes – that bring pure pleasure to your eyes all day long.

Superior Contrast Performance with DarkChip3™

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.

A 3D Cinematic Experience in the Comfort of Your Home

The HT1085ST supports multiple forms of 3D with amazing 1080p Full HD quality, including HDMI 1.4a 3D, Blu-ray, 3D broadcasting, video games and NVIDIA 3DTV PC connectivity – crosstalk free. So you can maximize your 3D enjoyment with ease.

High Native ANSI Contrast Ratio

Native contrast, otherwise known as ANSI contrast, is what drives the perceived quality of an image. As demonstrated in the patterns below, ANSI (American National Standards Institute) measures and compares the brightness of black and white segments, offering a more accurate representation of a projector's contrast performance besides FOFO (Full On/Full Off), which measures and compares the brightness of full black and full white screens. Since the reality is that most of the images projected are not strictly 100% black and white but a mixed of black and white segments. With a high 560:1 ANSI contrast ratio, the HT1085ST is built to reveal the subtlest details in the deepest, truest blacks.

With the support of MHL connectivity, the HT1085ST enables flawless wired or wireless streaming of digital content from any MHL-equipped smart device via a MHL cable or a 3rd-party MHL dongle, such as a Roku dongle, respectively. This not only expands your mobile entertainment onto the big screen with a simple plug-and-play but also makes it easier to share the enjoyment with family and friends. Besides, you can browse websites, watch videos and play games without having to turn on your computer at all. Plus, you can access playback functions on your mobile device using the HT1085ST's remote control!

BenQ DLP® Projectors︱ Long-Lasting Image Perfection with DLP Technology

Timeless Image Quality:

BenQ Colorific DLP Projectors are built with enduring enjoyment in mind, ensuring razor-sharp clarity, ultra-readability and true-to-life color for years to come. We use leading-edge DLP Technology to reflect pure light from millions of micro mirrors on a DMD chip through our advanced color wheels. Since the mirrors are colorless and protected within a nearly-sealed engine, BenQ Colorific DLP Projectors have no aging problems and are virtually immune to image decay, consistently delivering picture excellence time and time again. In fact, after 2,000 hours of intense usage, inserting a new bulb produces image quality comparable to a brand-new projector.

Non-DLP Projector

BenQ DLP Projector

DLP Technology also affords a filter-free engine design for carefree confidence in long-lasting image quality and reduced total cost of ownership. BenQ's SmartEco™ Technology further boosts contrast performance and image quality endurance while saving up to 70% on lamp power consumption.

Razor-Sharp Clarity with Ultra-Readability:

Enabling a 96% fill factor, DLP Technology supplies pixel circuitry behind the pixel, thereby eliminating the thick dark bezels around individual pixels, which diminish color and detail. A higher fill factor and less black border translate to noticeably purer, more intense color and smoother image quality.

BenQ Colorific DLP Projectors also feature high contrast ratios for flawless rendering of small text, fine lines, and dark scene details. Blacks are deeper and overall image quality is more focused and clean. Your presentations will be easily readable and highly effective, even from the back row of a well-lit venue.
