BenQ TK705STi Short Throw Home Entertainment Projector for Movies, Sports & Gaming
The BenQ TK705STi is a 4K short-throw home entertainment projector with 3,000 ANSI lumens, designed for films, sports, and gaming in smaller living spaces. Its 0.8 throw ratio produces large images from short distances, making cinema-scale viewing easier without placing the projector at the far end of the room. BenQ CinematicColor and HDR-PRO technologies maintain natural colour and visible contrast across HDR content, while Google TV, HDMI 2.1, and 5 ms input lag at 4K/60Hz support streaming and responsive gaming.

FAQs:
Can the BenQ TK705STi operate effectively in a bright living room?
Yes. The TK705STi produces 3000 ANSI lumens, which maintains image visibility in rooms with ambient lighting from lamps or daylight. This brightness makes it suitable for casual daytime viewing, live sports, or gaming, where a fully darkened room may not be practical. HDR-PRO processing also maintains visible detail in darker areas while controlling brightness in highlights, helping HDR content retain contrast under brighter viewing conditions.
How does the short-throw design affect projector placement?
The 0.8 short-throw ratio allows the projector to produce a large image from a shorter distance than a conventional projector. The TK705STi can sit closer to the screen or wall while still producing large image sizes up to 150 inches, reducing the amount of floor space required behind seating areas and simplifying cable management in smaller rooms. It also reduces the likelihood that viewers will interrupt the projection beam while moving around the room.
Does the projector require manual image alignment after repositioning?
No. The TK705STi includes BenQ’s 8-way Smart Image Adaptation system, which automatically adjusts image geometry and focus after repositioning. Auto 2D keystone correction straightens angled images, while autofocus sharpens the image shortly after placement. Additional functions, including screen fit, digital shift, and obstacle avoidance, automatically adjust the projected image, reducing setup time when changing the projector’s position.
Is the TK705STi suitable for console gaming?
Yes. The projector supports HDMI 2.1 and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), allowing it to automatically switch into low-latency operation when a compatible console is detected. At 5 ms input lag in 4K/60Hz mode, on-screen response remains highly responsive during fast gameplay. The projector supports systems including PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and Steam Deck. Game Mode also adjusts contrast and darker image areas to improve visibility during gameplay.
Does access to streaming services require an external media player?
The TK705STi includes built-in Google TV, providing direct access to streaming services including Netflix, YouTube, and Prime Video without requiring a separate streaming stick or external media box. The SmartRemote app also provides shortcut controls for streaming apps, brightness adjustment, auto-keystone, and sleep timer settings from a connected mobile device.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
