Why The AK700ST Stands Apart

Three Things The AK700ST 4K Laser Projector Does That The Others Don't.

What separates the BenQ AK700ST 4K short throw laser projector from the rest of the lineup — and from any other 4K projector at this price.

Curved Screen Warping — Unique In Lineup

Four matrix options (5×3, 10×5, 15×9, 24×15) conform the image to a curved impact screen with no distortion. The only BenQ golf simulator projector that supports curved-screen geometries directly.

95% Rec.709 + 8.4ms Input Lag

Highest color accuracy in the BenQ golf simulator lineup. 8.4ms input lag at 1080p/240Hz for responsive gaming. eARC 7.1 channel audio. Cinema, Game, HDR10, HLG, and sRGB modes from the remote.

Who The AK700ST Is Built For

You Probably Recognize Yourself In One Of These.

Three buyers we see for the AK700ST — and why one-button setup, curved screen warping, and 4K + 95% Rec.709 matter for each.

A Closer Look

What You're Actually Getting.

Auto Screen Fit + Quick Focus — One-Button Setup

The AK700ST's onboard camera detects your impact screen's edges and adjusts the projected image to fill them precisely at optimal resolution — no manual alignment required. Supports 16:9, 16:10, 4:3, and 1:1 aspect ratios. Quick Focus runs from a single remote-button press, with minor manual fine-tuning to finish. Sharp, edge-perfect image in seconds, not minutes. The fastest projector to set up in the BenQ lineup — particularly useful for DIY installers and first-time projector buyers.

Curved Screen Warping — Unique In BenQ Golf Sim Lineup

The AK700ST is the only projector in the BenQ golf simulator lineup that supports image warping for curved impact screens. Four selectable matrix options (5×3, 10×5, 15×9, 24×15) let you conform the projected image to a curved screen with no geometric distortion — the higher the matrix density, the finer the geometric control. For wide-format or wraparound sim bays built around curved screens, this is the projector that makes them work correctly without external warping hardware.

True 4K UHD + 95% Rec.709 — Highest Color Accuracy In The Lineup

True 4K UHD (3,840 × 2,160) resolution — 8.3 million pixels, four times the detail of Full HD. Critically, the AK700ST delivers 95% Rec.709 color coverage — the highest in BenQ's golf simulator lineup. In simulation, that means fairway grain, bunker sand, rough edges, and green undulation render with the color fidelity courses are actually shot in. For movies and sports, it's cinema-grade color reproduction at this price point. The 30-bit color engine produces 1.07 billion colors across Golf, Cinema, Game, HDR10, HLG, and sRGB modes.

The 102.5% offset minimizes tilt and keystone correction needs. For gaming, 8.4ms input lag at 1080p/240Hz puts it in the elite tier for console and PC use — the fastest projector in the BenQ golf sim lineup. eARC via HDMI delivers 7.1 channel Dolby Atmos passthrough to your soundbar or AV receiver through a single cable. The IP5X sealed laser engine delivers 20,000 hours of zero-maintenance operation.

Picking between AK700ST, LK830ST, and AH700ST?

The AK700ST is the right choice if you want the smartest, easiest setup or you're building around a curved impact screen — it's the only one with Auto Screen Fit AND curved warping. The LK830ST ($2,499) is the right choice if you need ultra-short throw (0.5 ratio) for a tight room or IP6X-sealed laser for high-traffic commercial use. The AH700ST ($2,299) trades 4K for 1080P at a lower price, but still has Auto Screen Fit and Golf Mode. Call (833) 796-4777 if you want help deciding.

FAQ

BenQ AK700ST — Frequently Asked Questions

The questions you'd ask us on the phone, answered here too.

How does Auto Screen Fit work?+
The AK700ST has a built-in camera that detects the edges of your impact screen — provided there's at least a 2.5-inch (6 cm) black border around the projection area for the camera to see. Press one button on the remote, and the projector adjusts the image to fill the screen at optimal resolution. Supports 16:9, 16:10, 4:3, and 1:1 aspect ratios automatically. Works with white and gray impact screens.
Can I use curved screen warping and Auto Screen Fit at the same time?+
No — warping and Auto Screen Fit are mutually exclusive. When warping is active, Auto Screen Fit, Quick Focus, Corner Fit, and Keystone are all unavailable. Warping is also unavailable when Screen Fill is set to 16:10, 4:3, or 1:1. For curved screens, use one of the four warping matrix options (5×3, 10×5, 15×9, or 24×15) and set up the alignment manually.
What else can I use the AK700ST for besides golf simulation?+
Plenty. Reference 4K home theater (95% Rec.709, HDR10, HLG, eARC 7.1 channel Dolby Atmos), classroom and lecture environments, corporate boardrooms, console and PC gaming (8.4ms input lag at 1080p/240Hz), themed entertainment, retail showcases. Cinema, Game, and HDR picture modes are available alongside Golf Mode, switched from the remote.
Is it compatible with golf simulator software?+
Yes — the AK700ST connects via HDMI and works with any simulator software that outputs to a display, including E6 Connect, GSPro, TGC 2019, RSG Club, Full Swing Golf, and others. Golf Mode is a color calibration preset that works independently of your simulator software.
How far does it need to be from the screen?+
0.69–0.83 short throw ratio. A 100" screen needs 5–6 feet; a 120" screen needs 6–7.2 feet; a 150" screen needs 7.5–9 feet. The 1.2× motorized zoom adds flexibility within these ranges from the remote.
Does the laser ever need replacing?+
No. The IP5X-sealed laser engine is rated to 20,000 hours with no lamp replacement, no brightness degradation, no warm-up time. The sealed design requires no filter cleaning. It's also the most energy-efficient 4K projector in the BenQ golf simulator lineup at 192W typical.
What's the warranty?+
3-year manufacturer warranty from BenQ. Swing Sphere is an authorized BenQ dealer, so we handle warranty claims directly. Call (833) 796-4777 if anything ever needs attention.
Is financing available?+
Yes. Shop Pay Installments lets you split the purchase into monthly payments at checkout with no hidden fees.

😍😍 BEST DEBUT NOVEL EVER
Format: Paperback
I’m having trouble finding accurate words to describe the way this book made me feel, but I am going to do my best. To start off with basic elements, the character and world building are phenomenal. I feel a strong bond to not only the two main characters, Ara and Rogue, but to each and every character introduced throughout the book. The author did a stellar job of giving each of them unique personhood. All of the scenes are beautifully described. So much so that throughout the entirety of the book, I could see every scene: the towns, the castles, the meadows, the landscape. I have had difficulty with this and with distinguishing between outlying characters while reading in the past, but I did not have to think to remember details of world or character building because they flowed naturally within the story and were described well. I have read book series before that made me want to be a part of that world, but I actually felt like I got to step into Auryna and Ravaryn! The plot twists!! Although this is not a suspense novel, it still had me on a rollercoaster of emotions and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I haven’t cried actual tears over a book since I was in high school (and I’ve read a LOT). This book finally broke the floodgates in the final few chapters. Multiple times. And we love a good cliffhanger. It truly made me FEEL. THE SPICE is a solid 3.5/5. Some of the scenes had me flushed, some had me taking notes, some just had my jaw slack and my mouth hanging open. Bravo, JD Linton, bravo. The relationships: friendships, family, romantic, ALL of the relationships in this book have so much meaning. The author does a great job at making you feel the love, the anger, the peace, the frustrations, the safety, the familiarity, etc. between the characters. Ara and Rogue. I can not say enough and I also do not want to say too much. Just know that I feel like I know them both, to their core. I know what their childhood looks likes, their darkest moments, their biggest fears, their dreams and passions, what they want in life… The POV switches were seamless. I am so happy this author decided to let us see from both sets of eyes. I can not wait for book two after that cliffhanger. And there is SO much potential for at least one prequel, I can’t wait to see where this author goes! I hope this series continues and flourishes. Fingers crossed!

Amazing!
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
This book was phenomenal, I devoured it within a few days! For this being a debut novel, it is fantastic and I would’ve thought the author was a seasoned author. I have zero complaints about this book. Let me start by saying that the world building was phenomenal. I could picture everything in my head because of how detailed it was — that’s how good it was written. And I absolutely love the “captive/captor” trope so much, it’s become one of my favorite tropes, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that this book had that. I loved the banter between Rogue and Ara — they’re both snarky and witty, plus with the romantic tension, it made the dialogue that much better. Speaking of romantic tension, yes there is spice but not so much of it that it overrides the plot, which I loved. For me, this would probably be on the 3/5 level of spice. This book had a ton of plot twists and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

High on Tropes and Satisfaction
Format: Kindle
This is a great Romantasy book full of action, adventure, and everything you look for in this genre. I won’t lie: it does kinda feel like the author found every common trope from every successful book of this kind and threw them all into this novel. But if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Especially in romance, there’s a large audience who has specific expectations, and they want them every time. Nothing wrong with that and many times I’m one of them. I have no idea what defines a spoiler honestly, so spoiler alert!!!!!!! Tropes include: Only one bed at the inn/bar Dissatisfaction with life before hunk appears Lost royalty The chosen one Montage of dress up time followed by shocked hunk Forbidden romance between two from rival peoples Power that cannot be controlled, simply guided/asked Gathering intel at the inn/bar FMC who knows how to fight/use weapons well There’s probably more but no need to list them all. Good story and I would recommend!

☕️The need to claim her, mark her, break her, seared through me like white fire🎨
Format: Kindle
"Some trauma stuck with you and Kaleb's had fused itself to his bones like a demented shadow. Rearing it's ugly head whenever it got hungry, feasting on whatever stability he'd managed to regain since it's last meal." "The need to claim her, mark her, break her, seared through me like white fire." "I shivered at his touch, expecting to find disgust in his stare, but finding something else instead. Wonder. And something else. A sort of recognition that could only come from someone who knew the same level of pain. Of fear for their own life." "In a moment of clarity, I realized I knew why a good guy would never be enough. Good guys didn't touch you like bad guys did. They didn't push the limits. Hold you down. Make you insane with need. Make you scream." "I figured Becca was like a bad habit. All I needed to do was resist her long enough and I'd be free. I didn't want to be free. I needed to be free." "Like he was waiting patiently for me to come to him, like he knew he didn't have to chase me anymore. Back to being my Mr. Dark and Gloomy. No. Not my. Never mine." "Let the panic consume you. Accept it or else it'll never let you go. And then remember, you are stronger than you think you are." Yes! This first book was everything. I have been very curious about Becca and her new love interests since I read The Crows series. This was packed full of action and the plot has me fully invested. The spice was spicin 🔥🔥🔥. The characters were fleshed out fully as well. This one left on a cliffhanger and I wanted to punch Aodhan. Although secretly my heart breaks for him 😂😭. This follows Becca as she moved to CA and is attending Calarts. Her father cut her off, she has no money, so she has to start over by herself. She ends up running into Hardin and Kaleb who are brothers and cousins to the Saints from the crows series. Becca, while attracted to them, hates them as she blames their father for her mother's death. Meanwhile she meets another stranger named Aodhan who wants to take her on a date. Who is this mysterious Irishman? While Hardin and Kaleb are the kings and rule the LA area, a new Irish gang is trying to take their turff. Secrets are unleashed regarding Becca's past. Lives are lost. A war is breaking out. Secret identities are in the mist. Who will survive in this duet? I always loved Becca from the other series. She has been through a lot and she's still healing from those events. You could see her growth in this first book. I love her fiery and badass self. Kaleb is a golden retriever and ray of sunshine when he's not stuck in his trauma. I love how outgoing and funny he is. His brother Hardin is the opposite. He doesn't talk. He's very angry and doesn't take crap from anyone. Aodhan is a mystery. He seems sweet and chill but also extremely broken. All of these men and Becca have heavy trauma going on. The spicy scenes between her and the brothers was so hot 🔥🔥🔥. They had insane chemistry 🥵. I'm curious how Aodhan will be added. I loved seeing cameos from the crows and Ava! I hope we get to see more of them in the next book. I love how Sloane is such a fierce badass. The women in this series are just fantastic. Damien is a strong character and I'm excited to see how that unfolds. I also love Becca's new roommates. Onto the next book!

Soulless Saint
Format: Kindle
This is a spinoff featuring Becca, Hardin and Kaleb. You don't need to read the other Elena Lawson series to read this one. I didn't and I understood the plot easily. Becca is struggling to get back on her feet after her dad cuts her off. She finds a job and roommates and keeps bumping into Kaleb and Hardin. They are members of The Saints, Santa Clarita chapter. Their cousins are from the Thorn Valley chapter featured in the other series. Hardin is silent but deadly whereas Kaleb is battling demons and the world knows it. They've been asked to look after Becca, unbeknownst to her but they get too close and become obsessed with her. None of them can stay away from each other which puts Becca and danger from The Saints enemies. Can she survive more gang life violence? Becca wants to stay away but their chemistry is undeniable. This book has lots of violence and lots of passion. It's a thrill ride from beginning to end.
