Somewhat surprisingly for a gaming projector, the TH585P delivers underwhelmingly low volume, both in absolute terms and for its 10-watt speaker. The audio system is suitable for a small room, but for larger rooms, or even in a small room if you want an immersive audio experience, you'll need to connect an external sound system to the audio-out port.

The model TH585 is a mid-range Full HD home theater projector of BenQ. With a price tag of under 500, the BenQTH585 has a broad range of features to offer. Compared to other same range projectors, the TH585 wins the race of home theater category for the money we put in. The Bright mode is the exception. As with most projectors, this mode exhibits a noticeable green bias. That said, the bias on the TH585 is less obvious than on many projectors, and most people will consider it usable on an occasional basis, if needed, on a particularly bright day.

Whether your focus is on gaming, watching movies and video in a room with ambient light, or equally on both, the TH585P is worth a look. But be sure to consider whether your budget can stretch a bit to consider other options. The BenQ TH685P, for example, can accept 4K HDR input, takes good advantage of HDR, and shows fewer rainbow artifacts for only a little higher price. The Xgimi Horizon offers far more robust audio at the cost of an only slightly longer input lag. And if you consider rainbow artifacts unacceptably irksome, the Epson Home Cinema 2250 is guaranteed to not show any, though its input lag is more appropriate for casual—rather than serious—gaming. Since most projector comes with a three-color-segment, they can’t produce enough bright image. On the other hand, pairing the DLP chip with a yellow segment, The TH585 has the advantage of producing more vibrant yellow than the ones with a three-segment.I set up the projector for a 90-inch image at 10.5 feet from the screen. Image quality with default settings is excellent for the price and more than acceptable by most folks' standards. Image detail is appropriate for the 1080p resolution, and colors are well within the range for realistic color in most picture modes. As BenQ has claimed the brightness in ANSI lumens, it boasts ANSI 3500 lumens. Since I always prefer nits to measure the brightness of a projector, The TH585 reaches 1000/500 nits. Yes, you read it right. It is better than what you from an expensive TV, most go about 800-1000 nits. Setting the projector to its Game picture mode (with Fast Mode on), I measured the input lag with my Leo Bodnar meter. With the resolution at 1080p, and 60Hz input, the figure came in at 16.4 milliseconds. Along with the fast lag time, the TH585 offers a small chassis and light weight, which is important to gamers who want a projector they can easily move from room to room, bring to a friend's house, or store away when not using it. However, BenQ doesn't include a carrying case in the price. An unusual extra at this price is support for digital vertical lens shifting. This feature takes advantage of the extra pixels on the 1,920-by-1,200 chip to let you move the image up or down from its centered position by about 5 percent of the image height. Along with the 1.1x zoom, it allows for some flexibility in positioning the projector. In addition, if you still need to tilt the projector up or down to point at the screen after adjusting the shift, a +/- 30 degree vertical keystone control allows for squaring off the image. Assessing the Color TH585 claims a 16ms response time as a gaming projector, a considerable slow input lag for enjoying gaming on various gaming consoles, such as Nintendo, Playstation, or Xbox.
