BenQ has unveiled the LU895UST, a new ultra-short-throw projector aimed at immersive environments like simulation spaces, entertainment venues, and education settings. With a laser light source and an impressive 5,000 ANSI lumens brightness, it’s one of the brightest and most compact models in its class.
BenQ LU895UST delivers sharp images in tight spaces
This WUXGA projector (1,920 × 1,200 resolution) is built for serious projection needs. Its ultra-short 0.253:1 throw ratio allows it to display massive images up to 200 inches wide without needing much distance from the surface. It’s an ideal pick for rooms with space constraints.
Dell Pro Max 18 Plus packs serious hardware, but high CPU temps hurt sustained Turbo Boost during demanding tasks.
Brightness and contrast put the LU895UST ahead
At 5,000 ANSI lumens, the LU895UST cuts through ambient light without struggle. Its 3,000,000:1 FOFO contrast ratio promises deep blacks and clear detail, while color performance hits 93% of the Rec.709 gamut. That means vivid output for everything from classrooms to corporate simulations.
Features support a range of pro applications
BenQ has outfitted this projector with several image enhancement tools. These include 2D keystone correction and “blending ready” capabilities making it easier to align multiple projectors for wide-format setups.
Notable features include:
- WUXGA resolution with laser light engine
- 0.253:1 ultra-short throw ratio
- Up to 200-inch image size
- 2D keystone correction
- Simulation, HDR10, and sRGB modes
- 93% Rec.709 color coverage
- 5,000 ANSI lumens brightness
- Dual HDMI 2.0b ports, RJ45, USB-A
- 10W built-in speaker
- Compact design (327 × 328.3 × 131.6 mm)
Pricing and regional availability
BenQ is launching the LU895UST in Europe with a retail price of €3,999. There’s no official word yet on a North American release, but interest is expected if the specs hold up in real-world use.
Compact and powerful, the LU895UST is built to fill space not take it
The LU895UST isn’t flashy but it doesn’t need to be. It’s small, bright, and designed for serious work. If you need a projector that performs in tight quarters without losing quality, BenQ’s latest might be worth the wall space.
