BenQ Introduces the LU895UST: A Compact Powerhouse
BenQ has expanded its professional lineup with the new ultra-short throw laser projector, the LU895UST. This model stands out not only with its brightness of 5000 ANSI lumens but also with its unusually compact body. The projector features optics with a ratio of 0.253:1, allowing for an image with a diagonal of up to 200 inches to be projected just a few centimeters from the wall. The LU895UST covers 93% of the Rec.709 color space, supporting both HDR10 and sRGB standards. The stated contrast reaches 3,000,000:1. One of the key advantages is its dimensions: at 327 x 328 x 131 mm, it facilitates installation in confined spaces. The equipment includes two HDMI 2.0b ports, Ethernet, USB-A, and a basic 10W speaker. LU895UST is now available for purchase at a price of 4000 EUR ($4380).
Enhanced Features and Market Trends
The LU895UST’s additional features underscore the evolution of projector technology, targeting both educational and corporate settings. The ultra-short throw capabilities significantly enhance user experience by minimizing shadow interference and allowing presentations to be more engaging. Moreover, its compact design mirrors current trends toward portability and space efficiency, crucial for modern workspaces and classrooms.
Industry experts underscore that the inclusion of HDR10 compliance in the LU895UST is a significant step forward, offering improved brightness and color accuracy, essential for dynamic presentations and visual media. The rapid adaptation of such technology in high-end projectors is reshaping consumer expectations, with demands for higher performance in smaller packages.
Economic Factors Influencing Pricing
The current pricing of the LU895UST reflects not just the raw functionality and technological prowess but also broader economic factors. As of November 2025, exchange rates show a slight decrease in the Euro, making the product more competitive in the global market. With the ongoing fluctuations in currency values, the potential cost benefits for non-European buyers present an enticing opportunity.
Projected Industry Impact
As the projector market becomes increasingly competitive, models like the LU895UST position BenQ as a leader in innovative display solutions. Industry feedback suggests that features such as enhanced connectivity and energy efficiency are particularly appealing to consumers seeking long-term value and sustainability in their tech investments.
