Our Verdict
Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-W01
BenQ HT4550i
The BenQ HT4550i is much better than the Epson EpiqVision Flex CO-W01. The BenQ has a much better contrast, is the more accurate projector of the two pre and post-calibration, and has a wider color gamut. The Epson is also limited to projecting an 800p resolution, while the BenQ projects up to 4k with pixel shifting. Finally, the Epson has no smart features or wireless connectivity out of the box, while the BenQ comes with the QS02 HDMI Media Streaming dongle with Android TV 11.0, Bluetooth 5.0, and Wi-Fi.
