BenQ GW2475H Computer Monitor 24 FHD 1080p | IPS | Wide-Viewing Angle | Low Blue Light | Eye-Care Tech | Flicker-Free | ePaper Mode | Tilt Screen | Headphone Jack | HDMI | VGA

the experience buying this monitor was really bad, I bought it and the carrier lost the monitor and they delivered me something totally different, the second time they sent it it arrived relatively fast but the audio was not working, one HDMI port works weird, however the image quality is very good.

For the price, this monitor is a pleasant surprise. Few other monitors in this bracket can boast the same colour accuracy (there are many Youtube reviews where accurate colour measurements are provided in detail) or entry-level HDR10. At this price, one cannot expect high-level HDR, but the brightness remains a surprise delight, (300 nits as opposed to 100 for regular monitors) to make it a worthy contender in the gaming, as well as design environments. The HDR and 10-bit colour depth require some initial setting up work, partly because it is relatively new tech. With some software, for example, you will need to experiment with the monitor UI settings to find a sweet spot. In terms of games, The Division 2 and Sekiro both automatically picks up the HDR capability and applies it in-game, with remarkable results at 4K clarity. In one review the specs were related as being on a par with a Retina display and you can see why. It is important to ensure the latest HDMI (2.0) 18 Gbps high speed and DisplayPort (1.4) cabling is used, some of which are included depending on region. Even though it is a FreeSync monitor, an Nvidia card will happily run on it, albeit without the sync benefit. On the down side: the stated viewing angles are accurate, but to get the best colour representation it is best to face the monitor directly. Shifting around shows up some unwanted colour shifts, which you would likely not find in an IPS panel, but at a substantially higher price. Other than that, a fantastic buy. The 4ms response time balances well with the 60 Hz refresh rate, making this monitor ideal for work and play, especially if your budget does not stretch to professional designer products yet.

I bought it on sale for $349. If it still were that price, I would have given it 5 stars. Its 60 Hz refresh rate is great for media content, productivity and fine for casual gaming, but those into competitive gaming may want something with a higher refresh rate. Then again, 32 4k monitors with 144 Hz refresh rates are nearly 3X the price at this time. Mine came with USB C cable and a mini-DP to DP cable, neither of which work with my video card. If you buy a new cable, make sure that it is good quality and supports 4K. A couple of old DP cables I had used for 1080P monitors did not work properly (a short one caused flickering and a long one did not work at all), but a newer DP cable I had lying around worked perfectly.

Excellent video quality. I am using for cad work.

This monitor has great resolution, and color accuracy. It’s vibrant. No dead pixels that I could see upon arrival, even with a test. However, my unit came with a defective backlight. It’s a VA panel so I didn’t expect to have any backlight bleed, but alas it has bad bleeding in basically all the corners. I assume this is defective and not something you should expect with this display. The HDR on this monitor isn’t effective at all. In fact, HDR content looked better and more vibrant and lifelike with it turned off. I can only assume that’s because this monitor has no VESA certification for HDR. It definitely wouldn’t even support displayHDR 400 standards. I’m sure this monitor is decent with a non-defective backlight and if you don’t care to use HDR, but for me this was very underwhelming. Even if the backlight wasn’t defective, I would still unfortunately return this monitor because of the false HDR.

Outstanding monitor, very clear, sharp and good colors. I use it in low blue light/multimedia mode, still great quality. Used with apple OS, via usb-c mode, very happy, no problems. Gaming, web surfing, video watching, all great. Only downside is the monitor is not height adjustable and had to get a stand. Other than that, a great monitor with tons of features. Awesome value.

Great monitor eith great clarity for a VA panel. I underestimated it for sure. I was looking for an improvement from my 32inch 1080p VA panel and I got more than I was expecting out of this monitor. The colors are deep but I will have to say that the HDR can be a bit dull. Most experiences were better off without because it doesnt get bright enough to notice. The emulated HDR feature provided better color depth than actual HDR. Minor light bleed but only noticeable on a blank, dark screen. Works great with console as well. Xbox One X looks great. Id imagine that it looks equally as great with the Series X as well.

I ordered a pair for to use for work (software development) and they get the job done but its hard to get excited about them. For context, I cared about having a lot of screen space and not much else, and thats pretty much the only reason these arent getting a 1 star review. They are indeed 4K monitors and physically large so the resolution is great. That said, between the two with the _exact_ same settings theres a noticeable difference in color temperature when moving something from one screen to the other. Theyre very bright, but tend to look a little washed out and fiddling with settings has yet to fix this. Color accuracy is poor. Theres a little light bleed on the edges, nothing terrible but not amazing. Theres also a distinct flicker at time, although I dont know if this is truly the monitor or something about my setup, all the other issues have been consistent when using a different computer to drive the displays, the flicker only happens when driving them through a docking station, so that might be the stations fault. So in short if you want a big 4K monitor that gives you a lot of screen realestate at a good price, go for it. For my use case they get the job done. Would not recommend for gaming or cinema or really anything where picture quality beyond legible type is important.

This display is fine enough for media consumption and the size is excellent for multitasking, but gaming on this display is very limiting. Fast games like first-person shooters are disappointing on this display because of its 60hz refresh rate, meaning the highest FPS you can visually see on this display is only 60. Games where you shouldnt care about FPS are quite fine though, even enjoyable. If youre looking for a cheap, large 4k psuedo-TV/multitasking screen/content creation tool then Id say that the BenQ EW3270U is a viable option. If you prioritize eye care and are serious about cutting down your blue light intake, then I would recommend this display as it has many options for you. However, when looking to buy products with as many details to consider as a computer display, Id recommend doing some research and looking into some other options. Most people care about what their monitor is capable of and dont automatically buy the first product that they see. I recommend going on rtings.com if you havent already and do some comparing and window shopping. If nothing else tickles your fancy and you can live with the slow 60hz refresh rate, then this display is a good candidate for what you should buy. Another solid option for a large 4k 60hz screen at this price point is the Dell S3221QS 32 Inch Curved 4K monitor, also sold here at amazon.

A monitor with great color accuracy, brightness, sharpness, and a lot of customization features, plus a UI that isnt a nightmare to navigate. You wont find better without paying a whole lot more.
