BenQ MOBIUZ EX240 Gaming Monitor 24 FHD 1080p 165Hz 1ms | IPS | HDRi | sRGB | Color Optimizer | Black eQualizer | Freesync | Eye-Care | Height, Swivel & Tilt | DisplayPort | HDMI | Built-In Speakers

This monitor is fantastic looks great and has a great sound thanks to the speakers and subwoofer. It has a nice picture quality and color. I mainly bought this for my Xbox series s it works right out the box with 120hz if you want to buy this for a new-gen console.

Con el ps5 me corre muy bien, funciona 120hz

Updated: 12/16/2019 From 4 stars to 2 stars Due to Color Uniformity Issue: After a week of the first review, I found it a little eye strainful to view contents with a white background. Upon some tests (as shown in the attached picture), I found the color from the top left corner grows yellowish down to the bottom right corner. The photo taken on my iPhone shows an honest degree of this color shift; this is quite noticeable in use. Disappointed as I thought Benq has a superior QC. Also, since BenQs support team kindly replied to my previous review in detail, I want to clarify some of the points I made as Cons for this monitor. 1. I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro, and a Walmart laptop by the brand Overpowered. In my opinion, even the Walmart laptop sounds clearer than the front speakers inside this monitor. However, Benqs has the advantage of a subwoofer(which, as I mentioned, is not really a big plus). I tried all the five pre-settings, none works for me so far, and now I use a personal EQ configuration by a software called Equalizer APO. I list the speakers as a con due to the high expectations I had while watching the youtubers recommendations. The speakers are definitely usable. 2. I did not try the overdrive/AMA settings in either Benq Ex2780q or the Pg279q from Asus, so indeed, I am not the expert on how the response time could be further enhanced. As for the color vibrancy, Benqs Ex2780q supposedly has a broader color gamut, and now I suspect the reason my experience differed might be due to the color uniformity defect in my unit. One thing I would like to add: for some monitor buyers, the new cool features coming out recently such as the HDRi/HDR, voice canceling headphone jacks, super-fast input lags/response times, or 200+hz refresh rates can all come in second or third places to some degrees of quality control. I have gone through the return of the Asus Pg279q (BLB) to Microcenter. What a heavy box to carry around. Unsure if I will return this monitor, as I am checking if I still have the mood or the decency to go through anther monitor return process one more time. --------------- Original Review Pros (from the most satisfying +to the least, but they are all pros): Compared to the backlight bleeding and IPS glowing issues on my previous Asus ROG PG279q, my unit of Benq EX2780q has visibly better black uniformity and almost no backlight bleed. This one came unexpected, but the monitor came with a solid USB Type-C port and a USB-c to USB-c cable. I tried with my MacBook 2017, plugged the cable in at both ends, worked smoothly. In the color settings, there is an M-book profile, and by eyeballing, the colors on the monitor and the MacBook looked similar. I use the monitor mostly for gaming and only play MOBA and RTS games. IPS,144hz, and 2k combined offer enjoyable experiences. Multiple color modes; I am mostly choosing from the preset profiles in the Low Blue Light mode, and they all look pleasing. The design. The monitor looks modern, stylish, and does not scream gaming. The remote was convenient with a lot of useful settings, and they did not cheap out on the joystick for the OSD. Things I havent tested: HDR & HDRi. Since my room is quite dark, I did not touch the HDRi modes, or the brightness levels would hurt my eyes. I do not play fast-paced FPS titles, so I did not toggle with the settings to enhance the response times. Cons: The audio system is the biggest letdown in my opinion, as this is one of the main selling points. The in-monitor speakers can get loud, but that is it. The subwoofer always sounds too heavy and occasionally distorted, and there is little separation between the speakers in the front. In comparison, the speakers on my Macbook Pro 13-inch are much more crisp and clear. Concerning color vibrancy and motion blur, based on my impressions, Asus Rog pg279q has the slight upper hand in those two aspects. Though it does not bother me much, the stand offers only limited degrees of tilting. In summary, anyone buying the monitor regarding the sound system as a bonus may be disappointed. But if you are looking for an all-around gaming monitor, depending on the price you get, it is one of the good options currently.

I got these to replace my old monitors and I love them! First and foremost, I love that the have speakers in them and that they are good quality! I use them for school, playing games, and media consumption. They make everything look great, and all of the different modes make it really nice to view and work on what ever you want! If you want a really good all around monitor, I dont think there is a better choice than these!

The most remarkable thing about this monitor is that it has a a remote. The TLDR version of this review is that BenQ is using an obscure or new remote code to control this monitor that you most likely won’t find is compatible with your universal remote. This is a huge fail on the part of BenQ since the only reason you’d want a remote is to control the monitor remotely while using a different device (presumably with its own remote). I also own a 4K ASUS monitor in the same price range and it’s per much exactly the same (but a little cheaper). So if we’re being honest here, the only thing that sets this monitor apart is a feature rendered largely useless in practical application. I bought it as a second monitor that could be used as a dual display or, when hooked up to my Roku, act as a 4K TV. The Roku universal remote for the Roku Stick+ has both IR and Bluetooth. It also is programmable with an insane amount of codes, including 12 remote codes for BenQ TVs. Yes, that’s right, they didn’t use one of these existing codes and opted to use an obscure or new one. Since the stick is behind the display, you’ll need to control it via Bluetooth and I know of no “learning” universals that come with that capability. Sometimes remote codes used by a different manufacturer will work but I have‘my found any and I’ve spent over an hour trying every name brand you’ve likely heard and some you haven’t.

I bought this before I came to my friends LAN party, and got asked where I bought it because it looks amazing.

Ive had this monitor for a few days and let me say first and foremost that the actual image and screen is absolutely stunning, contrast and color looks amazing. However its completely let down by the fact that his monitor feels the need to auto adjust any game when you go into full screen. On top of the it significantly increases your alt tabbing time and it force my pc to flicker and go black for almost 10 seconds when going from a fullscreen game. Not gonna bother with support on this one due the fact that software changes can apparently only be implemented in factory which is insane. Definitely returned this for that fact only.

Love the picture quality and the overall product is great with a few notable exceptions. First off, it was delayed for an unspecified time for weeks with no explanation given. Secondly, it didnt even come with the damn removable back cover for the stand meant to manage cables. It looks like an ugly metalic mess back there. Its less of an issue because nobody can see it with my current set up, but its extremely annoying to know I didnt get everything I paid for. Ill try to ask for a replacement and update the review if the issue is resolved.

I tried three other gaming monitors until I finally found this one which is the perfect balance between all the key features I wanted - It has a beautiful IPS screen that, out of the box, has better colors with more tasteful vibrance, saturation and color accuracy than the others I tried. I am a hobbyist photographer and gamer so color is important to me, even more so than refresh rate. I can say that the colors in this monitor are beautiful. I am not sure on what percentage SRGB accuracy it is, but I feel confident that this would be a great monitor as a jack of all trades for gaming a photo editing - The resolution to screen size is perfect! The popular IPS LG GL83 monitor is the same size with only 1080p. At 27 1080p is just too little but 1440p is perfect - The refresh rate of 144 hertz should be all you need for most gamers. I was new to PC gaming and was coming from a 60 hertz monitor and I was psyched to experience the 250 hertz of the MSI E Sports monitor I bought before this. To be honest, I could only notice a mild difference between 60-120 FPS and after 140 I couldnt tell the difference at all. So I decided to find a balance with this 1440p, 144 hertz monitor and I am glad I did - I am running a i7, GTX 1070 with 16gigs of ram and I only noticed a 20-30fps drop in some games that was easily compensated for by lowering a few graphic settings. I was still able to get Borderlands 3 up to 90fps, Remnant from the Ashes to 120 and Borderlands 2 to a solid 144 without much graphical drop. So if you are worried about loosing too much performance, dont be. Its worth the trade off. - The speakers are fantastic for what they are! Do they offer Bose level sound? No. But for monitor speakers with a subwoofer they are more than capable for background music, youtube and casual gaming. These speakers are a serious feature to consider choosing this monitor over another in my mind - I was worried about the stand because the monitor offers no height adjustment or tilt. I found that, while it is a bummer it only tilts, I still found it to be exceptional quality and its really nice for storing small items in the nook it provides. If you need a more features, you can always buy a desk arm stand and have all the flexability you need. - The monitor looks sleek and beautiful All in all for the sale price of 450, this monitor seems like a steal of a value. It seems crazy that more people arent talking about it because I feel its the best balance between price and value.

Just so people know, the 1440p 144z style monitor does not come with a displayport cable. You paid for 144hz and to get that, you will need a displayport cable. It is in poor taste that BenQ does not include one in the box.
