00:00:07.319 --> 00:00:15.200
welcome to my unboxing of the war zone

00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:17.920
lx60 XT projector from Ben Q this is not

00:00:15.200 --> 00:00:22.480
right this is the wxga model the one that's actually inside here is the XGA

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:26.320
model this is just a sample unit so you guys don't worry too much about what

00:00:24.119 --> 00:00:31.800
this looks like because yours will come in a nice shiny new retail package so

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:36.120
inside we find a couple of things honestly I can't even begin to speculate

00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:41.520
what the actual accessories included with a retail one would be but I would say probably it comes with a power cord

00:00:39.680 --> 00:00:47.760
and probably it comes with some kind of video cable it will also come with a

00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:53.760
remote that includes a laser pointer so you can see it's covered with warnings

00:00:49.239 --> 00:00:57.480
about lasers and like stuff o um aha

00:00:53.760 --> 00:01:00.199
laser oh oh the batteries are not

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:03.719
installed too bad okay so that includ a bunch of functionality but you're

00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:10.200
actually not limited to using this remote you can even use with the dongle

00:01:08.600 --> 00:01:14.960
that you can buy separately just I think it's like 60 bucks or something like that you can use your iPhone to control

00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:19.040
everything about it and you can even stream images slideshows or PowerPoint

00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:22.400
presentations and you can just like flip between the slides like this and stream

00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:26.400
them directly to the wireless dongle which is kind of cool it actually works

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:30.960
with a bunch of NQ projectors if you check out their app on the iTunes Store

00:01:28.759 --> 00:01:35.119
App Store whatever it's called whatever it is it's not called Google

00:01:32.399 --> 00:01:39.240
Play because it's only for Apple but if you check out the app it actually has a

00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:46.119
list of which projectors are compatible with the dongle and the

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:49.079
app now this is a very cool projector

00:01:46.119 --> 00:01:53.920
will you buy one the answer is probably not will this technology trickle down

00:01:52.240 --> 00:01:58.360
and will you eventually be able to buy something like it the answer is quite

00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:03.960
possibly because this is more of a corporate skew more for

00:02:00.399 --> 00:02:06.880
pre presentation Halls schools uh stuff

00:02:03.960 --> 00:02:12.520
like that and less about the actual individual end user here so this is a

00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:18.239
solid state laser projector which has a whole whack load of different advantages

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:25.200
um slick standing in front of my notes in including the fact that

00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:30.239
the I mean I can't even call it bulb replacement estimated time so it they

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:34.120
estimate BenQ estimates that you get 10,000 hours of use out of this before

00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:38.720
you will actually have to replace the DLP wheel now it also has an eight

00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:42.680
segment wheel besides the laser backlighting it has an 8- segment wheel

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:45.319
which compared to most projectors in this kind of a product class right now

00:02:43.959 --> 00:02:51.280
are using a six- segment wheel which gives you better color reproduction as

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:52.920
well as absolutely Wicked 880,000 to1

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:57.920
contrast ratio and we're not talking like funky Dynamic contrast ratios we're

00:02:55.480 --> 00:03:02.120
talking actual contrast ratio we had this fired up before I put it back in

00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:06.720
the box and I got to say guys for a DLP projector it absolutely blew me away in

00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:10.519
terms of the vividness of the colors like even looking at the Windows desktop

00:03:08.640 --> 00:03:14.560
the Windows logo in the middle the green and the yellow are distinctly different

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:21.319
and they really pop even on this like crappy off-white wall so that was very

00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:22.760
cool about it um no moving Parts other

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:27.080
than the fan why do you have no moving Parts written down there okay well

00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:30.319
forget that it's a short throw projector which means that from here to the wall

00:03:28.920 --> 00:03:36.000
we were able to project an image that was about from here to about here and

00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:37.480
here to here so big old huge image the

00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:43.519
Practical limits of this in a dark environment are about 300 in but I'd say

00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:46.680
probably closer to 100 to 150 in if

00:03:43.519 --> 00:03:48.680
you're in a more brightly lit kind of

00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:53.200
environment what else are we missing here I want to make sure we don't miss

00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:57.519
anything right it's available in XGA or

00:03:53.200 --> 00:04:00.680
wxga and aha it's green so no Mercury

00:03:57.519 --> 00:04:02.439
since there is no traditional proor lamp

00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:06.560
there's no Mercury inside the projector lamp so that means that if it's you know

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:10.680
thrown away or disposed of in any particular way you don't have to worry

00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:13.480
about the environmental impact of that Beyond just the fact that it's you know

00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:18.919
plastic and you shouldn't throw away Electronics more than you absolutely have to finally threeyear parts and

00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.240
labor warranty and near instant on and off so it takes about 3 seconds to turn

00:04:20.799 --> 00:04:28.600
off and about 6 seconds to turn back on immediately which is very cool compared

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:30.759
to some of the uber slow traditionally

00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:36.560
back lit project that we've seen in the past oh look at that engineering sample

00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:41.759
sweet also has a 20 W speaker built in and let's go ahead and take a bit of

00:04:40.280 --> 00:04:48.000
a product tour here so here's the focus wheel it's got big old

00:04:44.440 --> 00:04:49.240
grippy neral Shenanigans going on here

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:55.440
all right it's got like kind of a nice blue thing going on you can actually Mount this any way you want it can even

00:04:52.840 --> 00:04:59.880
mount in portrait mode and it is compatible with that so you can you I

00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:03.000
mean I can't imagine you know what leave a comment guys leave a comment if you

00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:07.759
can think of a reason to mount a projector in portrait mode and have it

00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:09.720
be like like a portrait image like right

00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:12.880
side up I I cannot cannnot imagine why you'd want that you can actually see the

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:18.080
internals a little bit here you can see some electronics and whatnots and HOAs

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:21.600
and here you can see some heat sinks and fans and cooling stuff going on it

00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:25.039
doesn't get super loud but I mean it's not silent or anything either in terms

00:05:23.479 --> 00:05:29.280
of inputs we've got a pretty wide variety we've got audio in one and two

00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:34.080
audio out as well as a microphone Jack we've got our traditional um old analog

00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:39.680
stuff so you got your composite you got your s video you got your audio right

00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:42.960
and left you've got up to two VGA in a

00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:44.039
monitor out HDMI in two USB ports so

00:05:42.960 --> 00:05:48.520
that's where you'll plug in that wireless dongle which actually looks a

00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:53.000
little something like this you can also read uh certain things

00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:56.919
directly off of it if you check out my gp2 video I show you some of the cool

00:05:55.319 --> 00:06:03.680
things you can do with benq's built-in software also have a Serial Port mini us

00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:06.599
BB Lan and finally a 12vt trigger

00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:11.240
finally again the power and finally once more the Kensington

00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:14.759
lock I think that pretty much covers it so stay tuned guys cuz I'm going to be

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.759
doing a proper NC Tech tips on this particular model so this is just going

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:21.759
