BenQ AK800ST 4K Short-Throw Laser Golf Simulator Projector

Pre-order. The AK800ST is new from BenQ this month. Order now to reserve one; it ships new and factory sealed as soon as BenQ releases stock, expected late October to mid-November.

The AK800ST is BenQ's brighter 4K golf projector. It keeps the short 0.69 to 0.83:1 throw and 1.2x zoom of the AK700ST and adds 1,000 lumens, so the picture holds up on a larger screen or in a sim with some light in the room.

Who it is for

Sims with a 12 ft or wider screen, or some light in the room, where 4,000 lumens starts to feel thin. Plan on a graphics card that can drive 4K. If the projector cannot sit centered on the screen, see the AK900ST and its lens shift.
