HDCP is merely the copy protection protocol. So far, I'm not seeing any update to that. Everything in HDMI 2.++ right now will be HDCP 2.2.

Otherwise, we'd all have to run out and get new equipment to decode the HDCP 2.2. The new Benq 2700 is HDMI 2.0a/HDCP2.2. Pity Benq didn't go
the HDMI 2.1 for the 48gbs transfer rate and other options that are available with it.

Probably the w2700 was past the design stage for that and will be in the next batch of new projectors. So, I'll still wait until everything settles down before thing about upgrading my w1070.
Everything about HDMI 2.1 and cables as well (starts at 6:46 for the cable talk)

Everyone wishing for HDMI 2.1 on this pj is silly as the spec doesn't guarantee any level of compliance with respect to which parts of the spec are adhered to. Everything we need for 4K UHD with dynamic HDR is already available through HDMI 2.0 (except over the 120hz refresh rate and computer gaming)...2.1 is going to be geared toward 8K and DLPs can't actually do native 4K yet...long ways to go before we "need" 2.1. I understand if your a spec chaser just for the sake of future proofing...but its unnecessary unless you're a computer gamer.
As a gamer who loves his G-Sync on the pc side, HDMI 2.1 is the holy grail. Variable sync (HDMI 2.1 feature) that it offers is equivalent to Freesync 2 and G-Sync.
I would suspect that Walmart will pick this up to replace or supplement the non-4k version that they sell. Just go to Walmart.com and type Xaomi in the search bar.
Maybe soon, but not the case today. They're still selling the white one.
I know the feeling. I would be more than happy to buy one if I could get verification from a reviewer that this puppy is HDMI 2.1 or at least HDMI 2.0 with variable sync enabled.
