The BenQ TK700ST is built for players who want a massive 4K image without a long room. Its short throw lens projects a 100-inch picture from just 6.5 feet, so you can sit close and still fill your view. That's the kind of setup where a racing game or split-screen match feels like a wall-sized event rather than a TV in the corner.
At $1399.00, this projector sits $327.55 below the typical price over the last 90 days. For a 4K HDR short throw model with low input lag at 4K/60Hz, we'd consider that a fair entry point. The 4.5-star rating across 26 reviews suggests buyers are generally satisfied, though we haven't tested it ourselves.
What you'll connect and how it handles 4K/60Hz
The TK700ST supports 4K UHD resolution with HDR10 and HLG, and BenQ lists a low input lag response time at 4K/60Hz. That matters if you're running a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X or a gaming PC, because low lag keeps your controller input tight. Check which HDMI version your console or graphics card uses and confirm the projector's port accepts the same 4K/60 signal before you buy.
Brightness is rated at 3000 lumens, which helps in rooms with some ambient light. The lamp is rated for up to 15,000 hours in SmartEco mode, so you won't be replacing it constantly if you game a few hours a night. Still, lamp projectors produce heat and fan noise, so plan for ventilation around the unit.
Where a short throw projector makes sense
This is a strong fit for a bedroom, apartment or converted spare room where you can't mount a projector far back. The short throw distance keeps the beam close to the wall, which also reduces shadows if you walk between the projector and screen. A 100-inch image from 6.5 feet means you can place it on a low shelf or coffee table and still get a cinematic scale.
Skip it if you need a projector that works in a bright living room with windows uncovered all day, since 3000 lumens is bright but not sunlight-proof. Also pass if you want a fixed ultra short throw unit that sits inches from the wall, because this model still needs a few feet of clearance. Before buying, measure your throw distance, check your screen or wall surface, and confirm your receiver or soundbar has the right HDMI passthrough for 4K/60.
Measure from your lens to the wall to confirm you can hit the 6.5-foot throw for a 100-inch image.
Check that your console or PC outputs 4K/60Hz over HDMI and that your cable supports it.
