BenQ AH700ST 1080p Laser Golf Simulator Projector
The BenQ AH700ST is a purpose-built 1080p laser golf simulator projector designed for customers who want a bright, easy-to-install solution without stepping up to 4K.
With 4,000 ANSI lumens, Full HD 1080p resolution, a flexible 0.69–0.83 short-throw ratio, and BenQ’s Auto Screen Fit technology, the AH700ST delivers excellent performance for dedicated golf simulator rooms while keeping setup simple.
For golfers who prioritize brightness, ease of installation, and value over 4K resolution, the AH700ST is one of the strongest options in BenQ’s golf simulator lineup.
Designed Specifically for Golf Simulation
The AH700ST is designed around the needs of golf simulator installations rather than adapting a traditional business projector for golf.
BenQ’s dedicated Golf Mode is tuned to reproduce the natural greens, fairways, rough, sand, trees, and terrain found throughout a golf course, helping simulator software look more realistic and immersive.
Its 4,000-lumen laser light source provides enough output for large impact screens and allows the projector to maintain strong color and contrast even when some room lighting is present.
Auto Screen Fit & Easy Setup
One of the biggest advantages of the AH700ST is how easy it is to set up.
BenQ’s Auto Screen Fit technology helps automatically align the projected image with your simulator screen, reducing the amount of manual adjustment normally required during installation.
The AH700ST includes:
Auto Screen Fit
Quick / Auto Focus
Motorized 1.2x Optical Zoom
2D Keystone Correction
Corner Fit
Screen Fill
These tools make it easier to achieve a clean, properly aligned image across custom golf simulator screens.
Flexible Short-Throw Installation
The AH700ST features a 0.69–0.83 throw ratio, allowing it to create a large image from a relatively short mounting distance.
Its low projection offset also allows the projector to be positioned safely behind the golfer while helping minimize shadows and keeping the projector away from the swing path.
The combination of short throw, 1.2x motorized zoom, and automatic focus gives installers plenty of flexibility when dialing in projector placement.
Screen Fill for Custom Simulator Screens
Golf simulator screens do not always use a standard 16:9 aspect ratio.
The AH700ST includes BenQ’s Screen Fill feature, allowing the projector to better accommodate different screen formats including 16:9, 16:10, 4:3, and 1:1.
This can be especially useful in rooms where the available width or ceiling height requires a more customized screen shape.
More Than Just Golf
The AH700ST can also serve as the centerpiece of a multi-purpose entertainment room.
Its 1080p Full HD resolution, 95% Rec.709 color coverage, Cinema Mode, HDR10 and HLG support make it well suited for:
Golf simulation
Movies
Sports
Streaming
Console gaming
PC gaming
The AH700ST also supports eARC with 7.1-channel audio, making it easy to integrate with compatible soundbars and home theater systems.
Low Input Lag
The AH700ST also offers responsive performance for gaming and simulator use.
BenQ rates input lag at:
16.7ms at 1080p / 120Hz
33.4ms at 1080p / 60Hz
That makes it a strong option for customers who want their golf simulator room to double as a gaming space.
Long-Life Laser Performance
The AH700ST uses a laser light source rated for up to 20,000 hours in Normal mode and 30,000 hours in ECO mode, eliminating traditional projector lamp replacements.
That makes it well suited for both home simulator rooms and higher-use environments.

Pixel Golf Recommendation
The AH700ST is an excellent choice for customers who want the brightness and easy installation of BenQ’s premium golf simulator projectors without paying for 4K resolution.
It shares the same 4,000-lumen brightness and 0.69–0.83 throw ratio as the AK700ST, along with Auto Screen Fit, Screen Fill, short-throw placement, and golf-specific picture modes. The biggest difference is resolution: the AH700ST is 1080p Full HD, while the AK700ST steps up to 4K UHD.
For customers running a simulator on a more modest gaming PC, working within a tighter budget, or simply not needing 4K on their impact screen, the AH700ST delivers a great balance of brightness, installation flexibility, golf-specific features, and value.

Reviews
I'm just finishing setting up a golf sim in my den and this surely would not have been easy without DJ from Pixel Golf's help and expertise, his recommendation and guidance in purchasing and setting up the projector along with absolute everything else I needed made the build a breeze, DJ helped me make the best choice for both price and features that fit my need with this projector, thanks DJ,
still need to get my protector cabling sorted out and do a bit of drywall repair
I was brand new to building a golf simulator room. I started by watching a ton of YouTube videos. Pixel Golf has some extremely helpful videos so I reached out with some questions. DJ went above and beyond to help get everything right for what I was looking for. This is a great projector for the price and DJ made sure this was the right projector for me. I couldn’t be happier with the advice and decision to buy from Pixel Golf. Purchase was super simple and the shipping was very fast. A++++
Wanting to build a Golf Simulator, I watched lots of videos, but my room has a vaulted ceiling, making it difficult. I reached out to DJ at Pixel Golf and he was incredibly helpful, even sharing pictures of other simulators with vaulted ceilings, and I was able to get a great simulator built. DJ helped me pick the BenQ AH700ST and I love how easy it is to use and he got me the best price. DJ's advice on the screen was also the perfect advice, since now the simulator doubles as a movie room.
