Easy to set up, large monitor, great use for work on lots of spreadsheets. Different brightness settings which is nice. I wish it was a little crisper.

BenQ provided me with a quality monitor for long days working from home. This monitor is safe and really protects my eyes. I feel great at the end of the day. Thank you – Thank you – Thank you!

BenQ designed a quality monitor that answers all the needs for the professional photographer and graphic designer. This monitor does it all.

Much bigger than expected but works well for my home office needs. No longer need to wear reading glasses when I work. Note that the max resolution for the relative screen size does mean you’ll see some sort of pixelation when standing at close distances (which is what I do from my desk). That would be my only critique of this monitor but I realize that higher resolution equates to more $’s. From a pure ROI perspective, great monitor.

We got six of these for several dual monitor rigs in our office. They’re a great size and don’t cause headaches or eye-watering after 8 hours in front of them.

I needed an affordable monitor for continuing my studies at home and this is perfect. The speakers in the monitor are terrible so you will have to use either headphones or speakers.

I received the monitor just today, and though that’s too soon to post a detailed useful review of the monitor itself, I can maybe save others a few dollars on an HDMI cable. The product description indicated that it ships without the cable; Mine came with the cable. So, I wasted some cash on the extra purchase; you don’t have to (I unpacked the cable before unpacking the monitor, and it would be too impolite to try to return the cable with opened packaging).
