BenQ is redefining the 21:9 projector market with the new LK935 4K UHD laser projector. Purpose-built for the hybrid environment, the 5,500-lumen LK935 projector delivers the full richness, clarity, and accuracy of complex content that make up hybrid meetings and video conferences today. It features a super-dense pixel count of 1,149 pixels per square inch (PPI2) on a 130″ screen, 21:9 aspect ratio, 92% Rec.709 color coverage, conferencing color modes, and HDR support to ensure text, video, images, graphs, and other content is presented in pristine high quality necessary to achieve equitable and productive meetings.
Built for Widescreen Use With Varied Content Needs
As the move toward 21:9 becomes the defining standard for achieving equitable, productive meetings, BenQ brings the company’s years of leadership in ultrawide display technology to the LK935 4K UHD widescreen laser projector. It doesn’t simply fill the screen but enhances teamwork and collaboration with the high-quality reproduction and super high pixel density that meeting applications using the 21:9 format demand, such as Teams Front Row. While most business WUXGA projectors are designed only to replicate one content format at a time, such as text, the LK935 21:9 projector can reproduce many forms of content simultaneously — text, video, images, graphs, and more — and in the best quality. This ensures that every piece of content is easily comprehended.
Projecting Mobile Device Quality
Attendees need larger images for clarity and to help create the feeling of an in-person meeting feel, which the 21:9 format provides. However, the risk is that information on a large screen will be pixelated or unreadable with a standard business projector. This demands greater pixel density, which is the number of pixels per inch that yields the overall resolution. The LK935 is the first 21:9 projector in its price range to deliver larger, more pixel-dense content at 1,149 PPI2 — almost four times the pixel density of most WUXGA projectors at 303 PPI2 on a 130″ screen. What viewers see resembles the rich pixel density they enjoy from their mobile devices — the gold standard for high-quality resolution. With the LK935, all content — from small text of chat boxes to facial expressions — are clear and discernable to the entire room.
Color Accuracy Ensures Quality of Information
Whether projecting meeting attendees or color-specific marketing, creative, or scientific content, color accuracy is a critical detail. With the LK935 projector, BenQ leverages its years of expertise in the detail-oriented cinematic, medical, and esports markets to deliver 92% Rec.709 color accuracy. The result is that participants’ skin tone and hair color appear clear and accurate, and other content is depicted as the creator intended. The projector’s Video Conference Mode automatically optimizes the accuracy of skin tone and hair color for a more immersive meeting experience. With HDR support, the LK935 is also able to read and display content with HDR metadata, projecting video with accurate secondary colors and high pixel density that is as close as possible to the original.
Designed for Installation Flexibility
In order to attain the perfect image in any room, BenQ has equipped all its projectors with tools that make installation and setup quick and easy. The LK935 features a big 1.6x zoom to allow installers to replace outdated projectors without repositioning existing ceiling mounts, vertical/horizontal lens shift to move the image up and down, and 3D keystone correction range of up to ±40° on both the horizontal and vertical axes.
Long-lasting Performance, Zero Maintenance
Like all BenQ projectors in its laser family, the LK935 eliminates the hassle and cost of installing replacement lamps. It features a long-lasting 20,000-hour laser light source life that ensures no risk of the image yellowing over time. It’s robust enough to support 24/7 applications with no usage or warranty restrictions. It also has an IP5X-rated, sealed DustGuardTM laser engine that is dustproof and eliminates the need for ineffective filters. The result is a long-lasting projector where organizations don’t have to spend money on labor and maintenance, achieving a much greater ROI.
High System Integration and Compatibility
The LK935 is HDBaseT compatible, transmitting video, audio, RS-232, and LAN control signals from multiple sources such as PCs, laptops, document cameras, and DVD/Blu-ray players using a single RJ-45 cable. For convenient system integration into corporate network infrastructures, it is compatible with leading projector control systems, such as Extron, Crestron, and PJ-Link. It also comes with BenQ’s DMS to remotely oversee and monitor an organization’s fleet of projectors, including those from other companies, with ease.

A Further Update On Rogers Long Standing Email Issues… And Some Of You May Not Like This Update
Posted in Commentary with tags Rogers on August 23, 2023 by itnerdI wanted to provide an update on this post in which I said that there was hope in terms of a remedy to Rogers long standing email issues that have been ongoing since March of this year. And I will say up front, some of you may not like this update.
The people who will like this update are the ones that are running Office 365. According to this document on the Microsoft website, the version of Microsoft Office 365 that supports Yahoo’s implementation of OAuth has fully rolled out. And I can confirm that if you have Office 365 and you have fully updated to the latest version, you can again add a Rogers email account to Outlook. If you need steps to do that, here’s what I have been doing for my many clients who have been affected by this issue:
1. Update Microsoft Office (save your work before doing this):
2. Go to File- Click on Add Account:
This method has worked for every single one of my clients who is running Office 365. At this point you’re likely wondering why I keep saying “Office 365” when I talk about this method. I am saying this because this support for Yahoo’s implementation of OAuth appears to not exist in what Microsoft terms as “Consumer SKUs such as Office Personal and Office Home.” Meaning that if you decided to pay once for Microsoft Office rather than use Office 365 and pay monthly or yearly for it, you’re still out of luck and you’re still forced to get your email via webmail. I have confirmed that this doesn’t work with clients who have these versions of Microsoft Office. The only workaround for this appears to be to switch to Office 365. That’s an option that I simply can’t recommend to anyone who’s already paid for Microsoft Office.
Now it would be easy to light Microsoft up like a Christmas tree in a bonfire over this lack of support for non Office 365 users. And yeah, they likely should be bringing this support for OAuth to other versions of Microsoft Office. But Microsoft wouldn’t be in this situation if Rogers and Yahoo didn’t have an incident that has been ongoing since March of this year that made this an issue for Microsoft. So what I would say to both Rogers and Yahoo is that they need to both take some leadership on this and do whatever they need to do get Microsoft to roll this out so that ALL Microsoft Office users can put this issue to bed. Either that, or both Rogers and Yahoo need to fix the app specific password issue (or stop using app specific passwords altogether) so that Rogers users can use the email client of their choice with Rogers email. Because despite what Rogers tech support says, webmail is not an acceptable replacement for something like Outlook.
Of course instead of waiting for Rogers and Yahoo to fix this, you can take the option that I’ve been recommending for a while now. Which is to abandon Rogers email offering and use something else. The majority of my reasons can be found in this article. Rogers and Yahoo aren’t communicating to users about this issue. Nor do they have a resolution to this issue that works for their entire user base. Thus You cannot depend on both companies to save you from this if you’re affected by this. Which tells you all you need to know about both companies.
I will continue to monitor this and provide further updates as they come. Because if Rogers and Yahoo isn’t going to keep you updated, someone has to. And that appears to be yours truly. Which also tells you all you need to know about both companies.
