Big screen experience on the go
Benq GS 50 is a smart wireless projector which is portable and comes with a built-in battery. Setting up the GS 50 is quick and easy, with alignment and calibration taking a few extra minutes. The GS 50 projects up to 100 inches on any surface (1080p). I managed to project on one of my smoother walls with off-white paint; the results were great overall with mirroring and casting abilities from just about any device. Android TV is easy to use and you are spoilt for choice with connectivity options including HDMI, USB A, C as well as Airplay and Chromecast built-in. I was able to stream Amazon Prime Video and Netflix as well as Apple TV—results were smooth and quality was good with good brightness levels in a dark room. Sound was capable courtesy the built-in woofer and tweeters. This is a great device especially for on the go, thanks to a battery life of 2.5hours and IPX2 resistance for splashes and drops. benq.com
