Meanwhile, customers in Germany and Austria can purchase the model for €4,999.00 at Cine-Craft, with delivery estimated between May 3rd and May 7th.

The BenQ W5800 is a DLP projector with 4K UHD technology and a maximum recommended image size of 200 inches (~500 cm).

It is worth noting that the device lacks speakers, but you could connect your own via an HDMI eARC port, which is compatible with Dolby Atmos. When BenQ will officially release the W5800 projector in countries outside India remains to be seen.
