The BenQ X300G 4K gaming projector is $500 off for Prime Big Deal Days

BenQ X300G 4K gaming projector Prime Big Deal Days featured

When it comes to some of the best Prime Big Deal Days discounts, expensive gear is at the top of the list. Why? Because it's one of the few times you can find a great price. Take, for example, BenQ's X300G portable 4K gaming projector which is normally $1,500. That's a hefty chunk of change, but for the event it's $500 off, down to $1,299. That's a fantastic discount and a great price for a capable smart projector with a lot of excellent features.

Why shop this BenQ X300G 4K gaming projector deal for Prime Big Deal Days
Let's start with the visuals. This projector offers a stunning 4K ultra-HD resolution and works with various devices, but it has been designed for gaming. At full HD 1080P -- yes a lower resolution -- it offers a 4ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate. Now, that's also while projecting up a 100-inch super large screen. Plus, you get immersive audio thanks to two built-in 8-watt speakers powered by BenQ's CinematicSound technology. It makes it all feel like you're in a movie theater.

This projector is specifically designed for gaming, and it’s $500 off

benq x300g projector deal october 2024

When you think about gaming on the go, you're probably thinking about something like a gaming laptop or a handheld console like a Nintendo Switch, and that's because it's pretty hard to lug around a massive TV with you wherever you go. Of course, projectors have been another option, but a lot of them aren't made specifically for gaming, and that's where the BenQ X300G Projector comes in; it's a projector that has been built from the ground up with gaming in mind, and it's surprisingly fantastic. Even better, it has a massive $500 discount from BenQ directly, so it's going for $1,299 instead of the usual $1,799.

Why you should buy the BenQ X300G Projector
One thing that sets the BenQ X300G apart is that it considers things like input lag and refresh rate, which a lot of other projectors don't. So, if you're into competitive FPS games, for example, you can actually get it to run at 1080p and an impressive 240Hz with only a 4.2ms input lag, which is pretty much on par with some of the best gaming monitors. On the other hand, if you're gaming on a console and want to take advantage of 4K, you can run it at 4K with 60Hz, although you do get a worse 16.7ms input lag, so you probably don't want to use that mode for anything that has high-intensity or competitive gameplay.
