The excellent BenQ X500i projector features short lag times and support for 1440p/120Hz input, making it an obvious choice for big-screen gaming under $2,000.

The BenQ X500i is an astounding projector for the price. Ok, it’s not the cheapest out there, if you’re looking for something more budget-oriented something like XGIMI’s Halo+ is certainly a better fit. But for the price, you get a phenomenal 4K gaming projector, with an absolute arsenal of features, and some of the best performance I’ve seen from any projector to date. It even beats out the far pricier X3100i. Vibrant color accuracy? Check. Crazy luminosity? Check. Super smooth latency? Also, check.

The BenQ X500i achieves a minimum 4ms of latency and a 240Hz refresh rate. It's one of the few gaming projectors to match the quality of a proper gaming monitor, though its noisy operation and short throw distance may be a turn-off for some.

All things considered, now it's conclusion time and no matter what your budget is, I think that the BenQ X 500i seems to be the best gaming projector on the market.

The BenQ X500i is a good choice for console gamers looking to create an incredibly immersive gaming experience for all kinds of games, from sprawling open-world games to first-person shooters and even high-speed racing games. The BenQ X500i creates true-to-life authentic landscapes in 4K resolution. The dual built-in 5-watt chamber speakers powered by Bongiovi DPS technology allow users to surround themselves with amazing virtual 3D surround sound to match the gameplay visuals.

I Have to say one of the best reasons to go for a gaming projector like this is that you cannot only just play games via your 35in monitor, you can play games via your 55in tv for example, but having a gaming experience on something as large as 100 in.

Personally I still think I would rather have a HD OLED TV instead, especially one with a good game mode
