Our Verdict

Optoma UHD35

BenQ HT3560

The BenQ HT3560 is a bit better than the Optoma UHD35, especially if you care about image accuracy, as the Optoma isn't very accurate and can't be improved much through calibration. The Optoma does have slightly better contrast, offering a better dark room experience if you don't care about image accuracy. Another advantage of the BenQ is that it has more ports overall, with three HDMI ports, eARC support, and two USB ports; the Optoma doesn't have any USB data ports, no ARC/eARC support, and only two HDMI ports.
