Our Verdict
BenQ HT2050A
AWOL Vision LTV-3000 Pro
The BenQ HT2050A is a bit better than the AWOL Vision LTV-3000 Pro. Still, the AWOL Vision is a UST projector while the BenQ is a more regular long-throw unit, and the latter projects images in 1080p, while the former instead uses pixel shifting to project a higher resolution image. Ultimately, the BenQ has better contrast and is more accurate out-of-the-box, while the AWOL Vision is brighter and has a far wider color gamut.
