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

I bought this to use for work from home. Rather than use multiple monitors, I open and arrange multiple windows on this monitor. Its perfect for what I need. I would not recommend it for your sole source of audio. If I do decide to buy a second monitor, it will be a second one of these!

Nice size display with good resolution and decent build quality, but Im returning it. We were looking to standardize on a high quality 4K monitor for use with the latest MacBook Pros and iMacs that have only USB-C / Thunderbolt 3 port for external displays. The specifications and price on this EW3270U looked good, and I called BenQ to confirm full compatibility of the USB-C with Macs . Unfortunately the monitor was a disappointment. I got past the rather confusing on-screen menu choices required to optimize the settings for our work and was immediately disappointed with the brightness of the BenQ. At maximum brightness it looks REALLY DULL & DIM when used next to the very bright, sharp retina display of any recent (2017+) 27 inch 5K iMac, especially in a well-lit room. The brightness alone would not have been enough to cause me to return the BenQ. We could have found a use for it, for example in a dimly-lit video editing bay. So I moved it to an iMac Pro... and immediately started having what appear to be USB-C related problems. Thunderbolt and USB-C HDs and SSDs that had been working just fine would now frequently fail to mount at boot time. The iMac Pro has four 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 ports with USB-C connectors supporting 10 Gbps USB 3.1 and DisplayPort 1.2. My storage devices had their own USB-C ports and the BenQ had its own port, but with the BenQ connected the reliability of the drives was degraded. Its unlikely a cable issue. USB-C cable compatibility is a disaster, however at one point I tried replacing ALL the USB-C cables with costly certified full 40Gbps Thunderbolt 3 cables that should support anything needed by either the BenQ Display or the external drives. The problems persisted. I have no BenQ software installed, so thats not causing the low-level panics It got worse. Shortly after moving the BenQ to the iMac Pro the iMac had the first of many low-level panics, which dumps your work and forces a reboot. This persists at random but frequent intervals and either stops or is drastically reduced when the BenQ is disconnected. It happened at least 30 times on the iMac Pro. When I moved the BenQ and a couple of external drives back to a 2017 5k 27 iMac THAT computer started to have panic restarts, although not nearly as frequently. BenQ support was polite and seemed reasonably knowledgeable, however they had little to say, no fix and seemed rather unconcerned. Given the USB-C problems and the disappointing lack of brightness this monitor just wasnt worth keeping. Were purchasing more LG 5K Thunderbolt / USB-C monitors that work fine with iMacs (including the iMac Pro) and MacBook Pros. Theyre only 27 and cost 2x the price of the BenQ. But theyre 100% compatible with our new Macs and the LGs have screens just as sharp and bright as the latest 5K iMacs and MacBook Pros.

Overall it is a great and reasonable price monitor. But it doesnt come with any video cable. Not sure if they change the bundle package for now. Saw lots of reviews saying they should have them.

I would definitely recommend this monitor to anyone who cares about the quality of their games. I’ve had this monitor for a few months now, and it works amazing. I don’t have a single dead pixel yet either. It definitely provides beautiful images, especially with bright colorful games. The only thing I could complain about is the built in speaker quality, but it’s not even that bad, only mediocre.

After 4 27 inch IPS panel returns with issues, I finally decided to get a big cheap VA. This is the greatest monitor Ive ever used. In terms of color pop and ease on the eyes, its mind blowing how good it is. Not sure about HDR but I just leave the emulated on. The colors are too good. This is fantastic eye candy productivity screen with no nonsense like gamer branding. I will update this review but my first impressions is this is the monitor Ive been looking for. Contrast and viewing angles are not bad at all. Basically IPS in terms of usability, but not in terms of consistent accuracy. At least its not like a TN where you literally cant see the text on the screen from an angle without straining your eyes. 32 inches will have you push it towards the back of the desk where its not a problem anyways. Very pleased with this product.

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.

Sitting 8 hours a day reading resumes takes a toll. Having this large Monitor definitely helps reduce stress in the eyes

Overall the Unit is working well. BenQ came through with a replacement monitor in short order. The scale of the screen is great. Looks great on games, works well for graphic design. The brightness is a little less intense than my Asus but with the right settings, it looks much crisper. The only complaint I have is on the edges of the 32-inch screen it gets a bit blurred but truly thats with all LCD monitors. For the money/value this is a good product.

The screen picture on this monitor is super great I have never owned a monitor but love this one this is a must buy reviews were great and price too works great with ps5 love it

This monitor is good if you’re not going to take gaming to serious and runs good on PS4. However something inside is rattling around must have been dropped during delivery but it still runs fine not bad for 185$
