According to our projector expert
With the BenQ GV50, you can watch movies and series wherever you like. The low 2.1kg weight allows you to easily take the projector to a movie night with family or a soccer match with friends. Thanks to the laser technology, the projector offers a clear and sharp projection even in light rooms. That way, you can always enjoy sharp images. With the built-in Chromecast, you can easily stream content from your smartphone to the projector. This means you can watch movies or series without hassle with cables or extra equipment. The projector has a battery that lasts up to 180 minutes. After that, you can charge the projector with the included power cord.
The BenQ GV50 has a 1.57 to 5.02:1 throw ratio. This means you can place the projector between 1.57 and 5.02m away from the screen for a 1m wide projection. For a 2m weide projection, double these distances to 3.14 to 10.04m. First check if you have enough space to place the projector.

When the product was finally available again at Coolblue I bought it immediately. It comes out best in the reviews for 'budget' small projectors and I understand that: it is a fine projector with excellent quality and brightness. Installation went smoothly, it was actually plug & play after a small update. Recommended for this price.

For this price, I think both the sharpness of the images and the sound are fantastic. It works very well in both daylight and a darkened room. Installation and operation are very intuitive. Installation took me about an hour because it had to download updates from the internet.
I got rid of my TV. It's a great space saver, and I can do everything with it that I would have done with my TV otherwise.
