BenQ BL2420PT Color Accurate Design Monitor 24 QHD 1440p | 100% Rec.709 & sRGB | IPS | Delta E≤3 | Calibration Report | AQCOLOR | Ergonomic | Speakers | DisplayPort | USB Hub

Bought two of these after some light research concluding the worse that can be said about these monitors was that were good but not great. I used this in a dual setup with my old 27 4k through an FireWire/USBC adapter to displayport from the monitor single FireWire to my Mac for video,USB camera and power and it works great. This was the priority for me. Screen took some adjustment to contrast and sharpness but finally got it to my liking . I use it for office work, no gaming, but my wife uses hers for design work.

I do a lot of CAD, Revit, 3D model work and this gets the job done. The pixel density is great and get a clean, crisp image. When paired up with the Display Pilot software this is great with the auto-pivot going from portrait to landscape and back; amongst other auto brightness features. Only downside is that it is not bezel-less which is more of an aesthetic issue or if attempting to create single panel experience with a dual monitor setup, which doesnt bother me. Overall one of the best value monitors I have used.

Ive had this monitor for a few days. Will review again in a month if theres any changes. The good: - They include a cable for pretty much everything. They even included a thunderbolt 3 cable for Macbook Pro 16 so I didnt have to order one from Apple (which costs $39 before tax). Just the cables are probably worth $150-200. - Good choice of external ports, has USB-C support - Solid metal base and stand, not wobbly, looks premium and not cheap - The stand gives you nice 360 degree adjustment The not so great - Although it provides charge to your macbook via thunderbolt, its not enough to power my MBP 16 so the laptop will drain power slowly. I had to also connect my regular charger. Maybe not an issue for less demanding macbooks. - Would have liked more than 2 USB-A ports - The speakers sound really bad. My iMac 2015 has much better sounding speakers. This is not a big issue for me because I rarely use the built in speakers and wear headsets. - Some fading at the edges of the screen if you stand too close

The monitor has a good picture. Its not lit completely even, but I dont notice that in everyday use. I like having the USB ports on it, but they turn off when the monitor goes to sleep. Since i attached my wireless receiver for my keyboard and mouse to those ports, I cant wake it up. I need to press the button on my computer now. I can work around that, so its not a huge deal, but its worth mentioning. Also the sound is really bad, but thats to be expected on a product like this.

The monitor is perfect for use with MacBook Pro. The colors are well balanced and the built in KVZ switch along with two extendable thunderbolt 3 ports is perfect to keep a clean workplace. It’s pricey, but the quality of the screen ( true 10-bit factory calibrated IPS panel ) is touching professional levels. This is a non- gaming semi- professional monitor, which particularly well attached to a MacBook Pro.

Not quite 2 years but almost - have a vertical line on the left side.

Great monitor for the price! Very bright and when looking over creative and advertising stuff, they really pop. The base and mount are top-notch and allows for easy movement and rotation. I may purchase another.

Probably the best productivity/ Creative budget monitor ever made. Love it so far. Look, if your a Max user you have 2 choices to avoid Mac OS scaling performance lag, 5k and 1440p. With this ultra wide you kinda get the best of both worlds. Will post more as I gain more experience with it.

Im not one to leave reviews... but this monitor is inexpensive and worth the investment if youre on a budget and not willing to spend over 1K on a good monitor. Im glad I read the reviews first before purchasing. DEFINITELY, recommend getting the USB-C to DisplayPort cable. They do provide other cords - I didnt test them out and relied on the reviews. To your concerns about the monitor turning on and off: the power button is very sensitive to touch, so a light tap/touch will do the trick. The different picture modes is a pretty cool feature - youll see the different color quality on different modes. The Macbook mode color quality isnt as accurate on the monitor, but for me, it doesnt bother me as much. Overall, its pretty easy to put together; the quality of this budget monitor is SO worth it if youre not that picky BUT still want a good quality monitor for your designs.

Love this monitor so much I got another one. After years of dealing with one of my monitors not matching the other, Asus, one finally went out which was a blessing. got me to look for another monitor. After a lot of research, I got the BenQ. It was calibrated right out of the box and matched my printer. I liked that to turn the monitor on and off all you had to do was just run your finger across the bottom of the bezel, with no buttons to push in. My other Asus was still working but didnt match the BenQ, it was annoying. So I thought I would get another BenQ and hope it would match and it did. Happy camper. The 2 monitors match colors completely right out of the box. I print in the Prophoto color space and my old Asus PA249 handled it nice, but it went out and they discontinued it. I got the Asus PA248 didnt like the Prophoto color space. These BenQs handle the Prophoto color space beautifully. Lets just hope they last a long time. My Asus PA249 only lasted about 4 years. The PA 248 is sitting in the closet.
