I had to replace my 10 year old monitor when it finally blew up. I wanted something nice but affordable. This unit was indeed a good price at the moment I was shopping. I wanted to replace my secondary monitor as well, but wanted to try one of these before adding another. Bad decision. The first one arrived and I was instantly in love. Colors are bright, the frame is very, very thin, and the display is very crisp. Im no longer much of a gamer, so I cant comment on using one for gaming, but for all of my needs this one was perfect. The day after receiving the monitor, I came back to buy another one, but there were none to be had unless I wanted to pay double what Id paid for the first one. I was patient and waited. After a few weeks it came back at the lower price and I snagged a second one. An hour after I ordered my second one, they were out of stock at the low price again. Im not sure I would pay the regular retail price for this monitor, but then again Im frugal. For a monitor in my price range this was far beyond the quality that I expected. Ultimately I added an inexpensive dual monitor arm and Ive never been so pleased with a setup in my life. Ive had the first monitor about a month, so I cant yet speak to its long-term performance, but the initial impression is that these are the nicest monitors Ive ever used.

There is a discernible horizontal line cutting through the middle of my screen that shows through all applications, under it both side edges have a white halo effect coming in about half an inch and fading gracefully into what is a noticeably slightly lighter bottom half of my screen. Dont believe the hype on these. I have a second (same model) one that has other issues I wont rant about here. Best of luck, I would go with another brand. never had any other brand blow out so quickly in my many many monitors over my years.

I am replacing my old iMac with a new PC but was very worried about finding a comparable screen for a reasonable price. I did a lot of research, read lists of budget editing screens, most of which were $300-$1000 -- still out of my current budget. Finally after reading tons of reviews on amazon I decided to try this one out and I am very pleased with this purchase! I got the 24 inch and played around with the settings a bit but really it was pretty great straight out of the box. I photograph portraits and weddings and I have a very vibrant style. Because of that I needed to make sure the color was pretty spot-on. I had used my husbands computer to edit a few times and found out the hard way that his screens color was way off and it can make peoples skin tones look sickly. So as soon as I get the monitor set up I pulled up images on both my iMac and the new BenQ screen and they looked very close! We actually noticed that my iMac whites are a little warmer so I pulled out a bunch of prints I have had made and started comparing and the BenQ seemed to be even More accurate to what my prints looked like! A lot of people complained that this screen is too bright, but I dont know if they have changed it since those reviews were written... it didnt seem too bright to me at all, I have it set to 100 brightness. Another reviewer posted settings to match the iMac display, but when I put the brightness level to 50 it was wayyy below the brightness of my iMac. So, I kept the settings pretty close to the automatic settings, I adjusted the gamma a little and a couple other things here and there. So I am very happy with this purchase, I will be sure to update if I have any issues or anything else to add!

While not a high end monitor it is an exceptional buy for the money. Perfect for those who want the convenience of using a laptop that doubles as a desktop. This monitor allows you to to view your laptop desktop and is very sharp and easy to use. In addition the monitor has speakers which also is a plus. An excellent buy for the money and easy to hook up and use. This is the second one we have purchased. My husband liked my laptop/monitor setup that he asked for one for his birthday. I would recommend this product whole-heartedly

Great picture. Was actually purchased to put into my portable gaming system. Perfect.

With a change in work from home culture due to COV19 I needed a replica of my office setup at home. 24 monitors, triple-monitor arm, standup desk, etc. I did extensive research as I didnt want to spend a fortune creating this setup but definitely needed it to be a long term office quality setup. With so many brands and options available in the market making a choice was difficult so started with requirements. 1. Needed 24 monitor 2. Needed multiple port options i.e. both DP and HDMI 3. VESA compatible 4. Thin bezels Most of the monitors provided only HDMI and DP was a must for me due to my docking station requirement plus also plan to use the monitors for light gaming. To my surprise, the options with these requirements started with $150 plus but only BenQ GW2480, Phillips, and Scepter monitors were in this range. Further analysis led to BenQ as my choice as it offered everything I was looking for at $130. Although the projected cost of this monitor is $119 I bought three of these at $130 each because the features were worth paying for. Have used it for office work and have no regret so far in buying these monitors. I will use them for gaming later and will update my review accordingly.

Ive had this monitor for about two years now and its perfect. I have a smaller desk and it fits rather nicely. The display is smooth. This product is marketed perfectly, it does everything it claims. Definitely worth the price. :)

I got this monitor for eye protection as it has less blue light. It’s great! Very nice screen size & color. Delivered quickly & packaged well.

Okay, take it from somebody whos into technology and knows quality when he sees it... these monitors are most definitely quality and at a very cheap price. I didnt want to upgrade from my old Dell 17 monitors, but when one burned out, I had to do it. It was time to go widescreen anyway. :-) After searching and searching, I decided to give these BenQ monitors a try mainly because of the reviews (okay, and low price too). Im SO GLAD I DID! Image is crisp and sharp. They produce little to no heat and they simply look gorgeous side-by-side! By the way, dont let the look of them when you unbox them fool you. The look of the screen almost seems like a matte, black finish. It seems like an old projector screen and you think, how can this finish create a clear image? But then, when you turn them on for the first time, they simply just Wow you! Trust me, it happened to me. Wasnt expecting that at all. LOL Also, when you connect the power cable, make sure you push it all the way in. Its a little hard, but its meant to be that way so that it has a solid and stable power connection. Seriously, couldnt find any cons to this purchase... Highly recommended! Jaime Ojeda

Not blown away by the quality or anything. Works as expected.
