Forget Black Friday TV deals and get a discounted 4K home theater projector instead

Maren Estrada

Everyone thinks about 4K TVs when Black Friday deals season comes around each year, but don’t pull the trigger on that new flat screen until you’ve checked out the deal that Amazon and BenQ are running right now for Black Friday 2018. When you buy a TV, you’re stuck with it and there’s no way to change anything. What if you decide in a few weeks that it’s not big enough? What if it’s too big? High-quality home theater projectors give you the same great 4K resolution and HDR 10 support, but you can adjust the screen size up to 100 inches!

We’ve tested several home theater projectors this year, and two of our absolute favorites come from BenQ. The BenQ TK800 4K UHD HDR Home Theater Projector took top prize for us thanks to its wonderfully bright 3,000 lumen lamp that’s clear not just in the dark, but even in bright rooms. The BenQ HT2550 4K UHD HDR Home Theater Projector came in a close second, offering a few nifty features that you won’t find on the TK800 model Both projectors are on sale ahead of Black Friday at their lowest prices ever, so grab one while you can.
