There are different types of matte and glossy coatings, each of which has its own advantages and drawbacks. Points were deducted for the overly bright gamma and luminance uniformity, but every other test revealed an excellent monitor, on par with IPS-style displays in many areas. Dimensions, weight and color Information about the dimensions and the weight of the specific model with and without stand as well as the colors, in which it is offered to the market.

Well you have to follow the instructions in the user manual, but when you finish with the installation, you have to do one more step do make sure your displayport gives you signal. Power supply and consumption Information about the power supply and consumption, energy efficiency class, etc.I currently own 2 EIZO monitors which are incredible for colour and depth but the drawback has always been that they run at the traditional 60hz.

Out of the box it is utterly terrible and that was not a deal breaker because we all have our opinions and stuff can be tweaked right? The monitor itself is easily adjustable in height, tilt and rotation to switch from a 16:9 perspective to a 9:16 one. Running games on the Benq at 144hz is a joy (note:New driver installation and DisplayPort are necessary evils - this Monitor does not work optimally straight out of the box - mine was too bright and too vibrant but soon calmed down with a bit of tweaking) and the number of different profiles makes having separate setups for word /FPS / RPG etc easy and swapping between them using the 'monitor mouse switch thing' a doddle. As a result, BenQ has incorporated both Low Blue Light and ZeroFlicker technologies right into the display. Only the setup was a slight pain as out the box it was horrible (from a viewing perspective) but I knew this was the case anyway prior to setup so came prepared.Information about the maximum vertical viewing angle, within which the image on the screen is of acceptable quality. TN for low response time and relatively high refresh rate, whereas IPS has better color reproduction and viewing angle. They mention that it's a fantastic monitor, with good quality graphics for games and excellent 144Hz screens. On the left side of the monitor, you’ll find easily accessible USB and headset ports, although you’ll need to run more cables to your PC to make use of them.

In terms of I/O, starting off from the left, USB mini B port for the S Switch Arc, display output ports like the DisplayPort, VGA, DVI-D, 2 x HDMI and the USB 3. G-Sync tends to appear only on more expensive and higher resolution monitors, and so its lack of inclusion here isn’t too surprising. Information about some of the main accessories included in the standard packaging of the current model. You might already know that the common tearing issue can be minimised with VSync enabled, but that will limit your maximum achievable FPS to only 60. BenQ's Motion Blur Reduction technology further enhances an ultra-smooth, free-of-blur gaming experience, particularly for action-packed FPS games where every millisecond counts.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The colour is fine once you have made a decent amount of changes but I’d say that it’s almost unusable straight out of the box if you care about basic colours when browsing.
