Highlighted rows differ. Figures come from each product's sources; room depth, distances and brightness are FOREference calculations using the same method for both.
Which should you choose?
BenQ AW30ST
Choose the BenQ AW30ST if you prefer its maker, seller or ecosystem — the published figures do not favour it.
BenQ TH671ST
Choose the BenQ TH671ST if image detail matters most or price leads the decision.
Before you buy either
- Check the room: room size calculator and ceiling height calculator.
- Confirm what each seller includes — accessories, software trials and bundles change often.
- Read the limitations on each full reference page.
