It actually is as good as it sounds…
TLDR version: Heaven for PC gaming and movies alike. Long version below.I use this projector for PC gaming (I run an RTX 3080) and as a home theater for steaming movies and shows (right now, primarily the latter, but that more because of my schedule, and I hope to change this soon).The picture quality (to include brightness and HDR) on this thing is top notch, so let’s get that out of the way. Frame rates at resolutions that are pretty competitive with high end PC gaming monitors give you a lot to love about this monitor for gamers... oh and at 100 inches. The price for performance on how this thing functions as a gaming monitor is pretty incredible at this size. Also, for the picture quality at the size you can easily get out of this thing, it beats the snot out of paying 5k + for an 80ish inch OLED TV. This thing compares favorably in terms of brightness, resolution and color with all but the highest end OLED TVs for a FRACTION of the price. Picture-wise, this thing is nothing short of amazing. I do not have this set up in a completely blacked out room, and I would say that the issues I have with natural lighting while using the projector during the day are different but equal to the issues I have watching a TV in a similarly lit room (light dilution vs glare, etc.). That’s a solvable problem; consider a window blackout solution if that’s a concern. Also, if you’re going to go in for this beast, I highly recommend a dedicated screen. Don’t debase the amazing picture quality of this beautiful machine by projecting onto a painted wall, that’s just silly.The Meh: Sometimes the projector seems to get confused with input devices; when I want to use the projector as a computer monitor, sometimes I need to power cycle one or the other. Not sure what this is about, but it’s barely a minor inconvenience, and the couple of times it’s happened it has been when I am deliberately messing around with display settings pretty hard. It may very well be entirely on my PC. The remote that comes with the projector is… mixed. The Android TV dongle that comes with the projector and the way the remote controls both projector AND the “smart TV” ish functionality is pretty great, the remote just isn’t the most responsive. Slow, spaced-out and very “deliberate” button pressing seems to be the key. This is not a big deal in itself; the finicky remote is particularly annoying when adjusting projector settings and the volume on the onboard speaker (which functions but isn’t going to win any awards). So, while the android TV dongle and it’s seamless integration with the remote is a really, really nice touch, it isn’t perfect. Beyond some of the remote clunkiness, there isn't an organic solution for Netflix, and in general, I found that a 4K fire stick it more responsive as a streaming device… the great news is that you can pop a fire stick into the same HDMI slot AND power source on the monitor that is intended for the android TV dongle. Right now, that’s what I’m doing, and the biggest downside seems to be that I have another remote in the mix (but I like the Amazon one better anyway). When I’m feeling brave I’ll see if I can figure out how to power on the projector through the Amazon remote, but it hasn’t bothered me enough to try yet. Anyway, to me this is more of an option than a real complaint, and the fact that the projector comes equipped with what is essentially an organic smart TV functionality should be seen as a bonus… especially at this price point.EDIT: I definitely recommend a sound system that matches the quality of the picture on this projector to do the experience justice. Finding a sound bar that worked with this set up was a BIT of a challenge. At the end of the day, something that has eARC/HDMI functionality is the key, but I also recommend something with a wide variety of input format compatibility. My initial review was pretty heated because I fought a Klipsch Cinema 600 for 2 weeks with missed results - after all that it turned out it was the soundbar (I’m fairly tech savvy, but the problems and solutions to them when they worked were way bizarre, and the soundbar was theoretically compatible). I went with a Samsung HW-Q800, and that was easy to set up, and HDMI ARC worked with the normal amount of setting fiddling, and it sounds great. I edited my review to hopefully save someone the headache, and to correct my mistake in thinking the issue with connectivity was on the projector - it was not.Bottom Line: this projector is…. Amazing. The price per performance on a projector that delivers most of the functionality you’d expect out of a high end gaming monitor (for a similar price on a WAY smaller screen) at up to 120 inches is just. Plain. Dumb. In the best way possible. If you have a stereotypical “man cave” game room and you want to add a screen that is just stupidly big and beautiful for both a quality gaming and home theater experience, look no further. As a point of comparison: Next to a top of the line OLED TV (my original option for down here) that could perform in gaming at the same level, you might say that the OLED looked better- but for 83 inches you’re going to pay something like 4 times the price of this projector (my reason for taking the plunge and buying a projector for the first time). To me, this projector offered 85% of the experience I wanted from an OLED TV at 25% of the price- that math was easy. I personally feel that by almost any other metric, this projector matches or wins in all categories against any remotely comparable TV.

Bright and Colorful, Short Throw
I purchased the TK700STI to replace a BenQ projector the W1080ST projector that was only HD and 2000 lumens. I had trouble finding a quality 4K overhead projector with the same short throw of 10' with a 165" screen.I had to move the projector back 2' to the next ceiling stud with a 12' throw. But that filled the 165" diagonal screen nicely.The increased brightness at 3000 lumens was much nicer, even though I had a dark theater room. The colors were much better, even though it's limited to Rec 709 96%, not the DCI P3 with a bit more color. But the color is very good, and I can't find a DCI P3 projector with short throw at any price.The resolution is better in 4K of course. But all DLP like this use dithering to create the higher resolution. The only noticeable effect is with dark lettering on a white background, when I see a faint ghost around all side of the letters. Generally, it's not noticeable and high-resolution color scenes look great!The low latency is good for gaming, but I don't use it for that.

Best short trow 4K HDR for the money.
The media could not be loaded. Best short trow 4k hdr projector you can get for sub2k.It’s about 9 and 10 feet from lens to screen wall and pic size of 130”.It’s not bright enough for Cali sun on a day, like at all, but with blank out curtains working as a sharm. Nice colors, crisp picture, really bad qs01 android stick, decent speaker ( i got alexa studio for my small aprt) thry hdmi to optic converter.One minus it’s can be loud i got projector right on top of my bed and can hear it with full lamp power on. But you used to it quite fast.

Great for home movies!
This is supposed to be a great projector for gamers, which I'm not, so primarily will be using for movies. The reason I purchased this one is that I wanted to project a 150" image from about 10 feet distance. Not very many short throws that have 4K, adequate brightness, half decent contrast, and good quality within this price range. I must say I was pleasantly surprised after hooking it up, which was very easy, that I didn't need to do any picture adjustments at all, and the clarity, color, brightness, and sharpness of the picture exceeding my expectations. I thought the fan noise might be an issue, but not noticeable at all. Now for the shortfalls. This projector is really finicky! I had to send it back to get the latest update, but even after that, has some quirks. For one, takes a few seconds to 'search' for the connected input, even with auto search off. Screen tends to go blank after every change, eg. watching the next youtube video. Sometimes it can take a few minutes to find my ps3, tried changing the hdmi cable but same issue. Tried the 3D, and works great, but during a 10 minute preview of a 3d movie, lost the 3d signal half a dozen times. Gaming is flawless! Also one final thing to note. Most people may not notice it, but the room tends to get a bit warm and stuffy after a couple of hours as this thing puts out a lot of heat, as most projectors do. This is my 4th projector and overall the best I've ever owned. Picture quality, brightness, clarity, and resolution are the best for the price.

Absolutely love it
I really enjoy this projector and can't get enough of it. The pictures only to somewhat understand how big the screen can be it ~12" width room, they don't represent the quality of the picture.Pros:- it can be really huge. In my room of 12" it easily fills the entire opposite wall with diagonal of ~16 feet(total guess, but it's massive). So even in small room it can give- extremely sharp even on edges(great for gaming). The text is fully readable, with no blur on the edges- great quality of picture in general, very pleasedCons:- standard BenQ stick that comes with the projector doesn't have Netflix support, so I had to buy Amazon Firestick (not a problem if you plan to stream from laptop or PC)
