Our Verdict

Epson Home Cinema 1080

BenQ TH575

The Epson Home Cinema 1080 and BenQ TH575 have different strengths, so they work for different needs. The Epson is a light cannon; bright enough for rooms with some ambient light. It's also very accurate out-of-the-box. That said, it's rather noisy under load and has very high input lag, making it a poor choice for gaming. The BenQ isn't quite as bright, but its contrast is way better, making it better in darker rooms. Unfortunately, it's not nearly as accurate as the Epson. It does, however, have much quicker input lag, making it a solid 1080p @ 60Hz gaming projector.
