The Epson 5050 is a better projector if you are in the market at this price range and has better features for the money.
This ht8060 is 7 years old...the 5050 is 5. Epson has a way better warranty experience
"The DLP chip inside BenQ's 4K projectors uses a technology called pixel-shifting, which can achieve true 4K resolution with 8.3 million distinct pixels."

Sony's XW5000ES is a beautiful projector but unfortunately performs poorly in dark scenes. So your best bet would be finding a lightly used jvc nx7. Probably can find one around 5

That and the color depth are the reasons I got mine, though I think the latter is mostly related to the almost unique LED setup in the 90xx series, so can't speak to this version. Never expected one of these to pop up on Slickdeals...

Pretty much everything else (low native contrast, no P3 color, bad HDR tone mapping, no motorized lens controls, DLP color wheel rainbows) are normally big deal breakers.
I could see this being decent on a living room ALR screen for SDR movies/TV, gaming, and PC content, or even if you're interested in 3D (again, using a high gain screen).
Otherwise, at this price, the Epson 5050ub (on sale now for $2500) is totally the way to go. Great native contrast, color, brightness, latency, motorized lens shift, and even a really good lens (even if the 4k LCD shifter doesn't resolve better detail than a 4k DLP shifter) -- its main shortcoming is HDR tone-mapping, so ideally you would either use madVR or Panasonic 420/820 for UHD HDR content or just stick with SDR. FWIW I have a 5050ub with an ATV4K, XSX, PS5 (all set to 4k SDR output) and it's one of the best projectors I've owned.
