Features:

SmartEco Lamp Saving Technology

Incorporating BenQ’s renowned SmartEco lamp saving Technology, the MX525A provides great energy savings while continuing to deliver amazing picture quality through this innovative technology. SmartEco mode is designed to use only the exact amount of lamp power the projector needs to deliver the best contrast and brightness performance. This feature enables the MX525A to deliver uncompromised projection quality with the added benefit of reduced the total cost of ownership by extending the lamp life and lowering power consumption.

LampSave Mode

Projector lamp replacement costs make up the biggest part of the total cost of projector ownership. The LampSave Mode is designed to dynamically adjust lamp power brightness level to match displayed content to extend projector lamp life by 50%! The lamp replacement frequency is also reduced by up to 50%, effectively reducing replacement and maintenance costs.

No Source Detected Mode

The MX525A automatic switches to Eco Blank Mode after the projector is turned on for over three minutes without an active source being displayed, eliminating unnecessary energy waste and prolonging the life of the projector lamp.

0.5W in Standby Mode

When inactive, the MX525A keeps power consumption to a minimum with 0.5W standby power, achieving what was once a challenge for ealier generation projector models. This technological advancement in energy saving helps extend the projector lamp life and lower energy costs.

Blu-ray Full HD 3D Supported

BenQ MX525A is built with latest DLP technology to support 3D functionality, allowing schools to bring an immersive learning experience to their students with cost efficient active shutter 3D glasses and 3D content from your blu-ray player.

BenQ DLP Projectors with Long Lasting Picture Quality powered DLP Projection Technology

Digital Light Processing (DLP), awarded 2015 Academy Award of Merit (Oscar statuette), is the leading projection technology used in 90% of world’s digital cinemas and 100% of IMAX theaters. With DLP dominating the worldwide projector market with over 50% share, BenQ has emerged as the worldwide leading manufacturer of DLP projectors, delivering projectors of unmatched performance, quality and features.

Colorific Technology Delivers Lifelike Color, Year After Year

BenQ uses Colorific technology to optimize images for specific color balance effects for diverse applications such as presentations, movies and spreadsheets and photographs. Every BenQ Colorific projector generates more than one billion colors by combining up to seven different colors to create vibrant, true to life images. You'll also experience dramatic contrasts for remarkable clarity, higher impact, and greater legibility. BenQ's Colorific projectors are dependable year after year. You can rely on the colors to remain the same from day one to a decade later--without the risk of fading, ghosted images, or yellowing.

• Accurate. Over 1 billion colors - compared to 16.7 million from many LCD projectors
• Crisp. Bright, high contrast picture - 3x more contrast than similar top-selling LCD models
• Long-Lasting. Consistent quality - image is the same now and years from now

Non-DLP Projector

BenQ DLP Projector

DLP Technology also includes a filter-free engine design for carefree confidence in long-lasting image quality and reduced TCO. 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 diminishes color and detail. A higher fill factor and less black border translate into noticeably purer, more intense color and smoother image quality.

BenQ 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 room.

Vibrant True-to-Life Colors

Even in well-lit venues, BenQ DLP Projectors achieve the optimal balance of brightness and color accuracy. BrilliantColor technology additionally boosts true-to-life colors that captivate. BrilliantColor enables up to six-color processing by incorporating the secondary colors Yellow, Cyan, and Magenta along with the primary Red, Blue, and Green colors. From intense hues to elusive mid-tones like aqua blues and light yellows, every presentation is rendered in pure, living splendor.
