BenQ MX550 XGA Projector

High Brightness and XGA Resolution

The BenQ MX550 is a DLP projector delivering 3,600 ANSI lumens of brightness and XGA (1024x768) resolution, ideal for clear presentations in well-lit meeting rooms or classrooms for up to 20 people. Its 20,000:1 contrast ratio ensures sharp text and vivid graphics, with an Infographic Mode optimizing text and chart clarity. Users praise its daylight performance but note limited resolution for high-definition content.

Flexible Setup and Connectivity

Equipped with dual HDMI and dual VGA ports, the MX550 supports multiple presenters without swapping cables. Vertical keystone correction (±40°) and triple adjustment feet (including one retractable) ensure easy image alignment in various setups. Auto Power On activates the projector upon HDMI signal detection. Users appreciate connectivity but report the 2W speaker’s low volume, recommending external audio.

Long Lamp Life and SmartEco Technology

The 200W lamp lasts up to 15,000 hours in SmartEco Mode, saving up to 70% power and reducing maintenance costs. An anti-dust sensor minimizes dust accumulation, enhancing durability. The top-access lamp door simplifies replacement in ceiling mounts. Users value the long lamp life but note fan noise (33 dB Normal) and lamp replacement costs (~$90).
