> 24 hourVery good 32 inch monitor. Definitely not an IPS, but I also didn’t spend $1000.00 for it either. It does what I wanted to do. Web surfing, movie watchingand a little game playing. Please notice I didn’t say anything about graphics design. It’s a good monitor.

> 24 hourThe picture quality is superb. The audio turned out to be a big let down. I chased my tail for a week trying to get the monitors speakers to work. It turns out that you cant get there from here. The speakers will only work with a DisplayPort connection. A lot of PCs, like mine, dont have DisplayPort connectivity. And, you cant just buy an additional PC board with this connection because they dont exist. My PC has an audio-out 3.5 jack connection, but my Benq monitor DOES NOT HAVE a 3.5 audio-in! The solution is to buy some decent add-on PC speakers. Why Benq doesnt tell you about this problem up front is a mystery to me. And, I saw no mention if it in any reviews. If I had known about this issue, I probably would have bought the monitor anyway and not have wasted my time trying to get their speakers working. The documentation does mention that there can be some differences between some models, so I wonder if there is a model somewhere with an audio-in.

> 24 hourI 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.

> 24 hourThis was a real letdown, coming from a 6 year old LG IPS panel (27EA31). Its a good size for gaming, movies and graphical work and the color performance is good right out of the box, but the nature of the VA panel and iffy uniformity just kills it for any kind of art, video or photo applications. Sitting in front of this display, even at dead-on center with a 50% grey full screen image, is like looking down a well of shadow. Oddly reminiscent of Samsung AMOLED phone screens, true black pixels never shift or suffer from off-angle issues because theres no light coming through, so if you have a color or monochrome image that has any real black, that part will remain jet-black while the rest of it shifts and lightens if you move off-center. Its a little weird -- and I assume its how they claim those amazing contrast numbers. Theyre tricking the tests. Color is accurate as long as you stay absolutely still and face the monitor with optimal angles, but if you so much as incline your head a bit in any direction the levels shift. Its almost like a TN or ancient STN display, like you got on old PDA devices where the viewing angle was different from your left eye to the right. It really is that bad. HDR is funky and changes settings, most of which you cannot adjust to taste, so it has limited practical use. Backlight uniformity is lacking, too. A grey image showed dirty screen effect and there were obvious darker bands/lines running vertically. Not sure if this is due to the coating/texture of the matte screen or what, but Ive noticed other BenQ models get dinged for this issue. If all I was ever going to do was play games and watch movies, this might be fine. The display is bright enough, despite that being a common criticism and contrast is good as long as you dont incline or move your head too much... But any time I load Photoshop or any other graphic editor the color-bleaching viewing angles and uniformity problem are dealbreakers.

> 24 hourVisual quality is great. Works with my PS5 very well. No ghosting, input latency is very low. HDR could be brighter but it’s a good monitor for the price. Pretty big size, make sure you have space on your desk.

> 24 hourAfter 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.
