Description
Take advantage of enhanced color accuracy and a variety of viewing modes with the PD3200U 32″ 16:9 4K IPS Monitor from BenQ. This 4K monitor supports 100% of the Rec. 709 and sRGB color spaces, as well as supports Darkroom, CAD/CAM, and Animation display modes. A built-in KVM switch makes it easy to control two different computers from this single display using a single mouse and keyboard. Additionally, the PD3200U features DualView mode to display content in different viewing modes, such as sRGB and CAD/CAM alongside one another. Switching between viewing modes has also been simplified, thanks to the included Hotkey Puck, equipped with programmable buttons to quickly adjust the displays settings.
The PD3200U features a 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz native resolution, along with a 1000:1 contrast ratio that provides a clear and dynamic picture. Additionally, users benefit from a 4 ms (GtG) response time and 10-bit support for up to 1.07 billion colors, resulting in reduced ghosting and a greatly expanded color palette when working in applications where color accuracy is critical. Setup and configuration is simple thanks to DisplayPort 1.2, Mini DisplayPort 1.2, and HDMI 1.4 inputs. With four USB 3.0 Type-A ports it’s simple to connect peripherals such as a mouse and keyboard directly to the monitor, while the built-in 3.5mm headphone jack, 3.5mm audio input, and dual 5W speakers help provide a complete multimedia experience.

If you’re hoping for the KVM feature to be super useful, think again. At least with a Mac, when the monitor goes to sleep, you will be unable to wake your Mac without turning the monitor off and back on again (or waking the computer manually). Also, the display input and the KVM input function separately, so not like a traditional KVM where they are linked. This means you have to manually change the input of each to switch between them. You can set shortcuts on the PUC or display, but then there’s only 3 assignable buttons on each. So I had one button set for HDMI, another for DisplayPort, and the third to bring up the KVM menu. I wished there was a 4th button so it was easier to switch back and forth. I also had some weird artifacts show up on the display a few times. Not sure where that problem was coming from though. BenQ Support sent me a replacement and it had the same issues so the monitor is going back.

so far-I just love this monitor-and thanks to B&H’s chat line, I ended up buying this one for less money than the monitor I was looking at. I really love the extra real estate on the screen and have gotten use to easily seeing the details. Awesome!

I am a semi-pro photographer that was looking for an accurate monitor so I could color correct in photoshop. I have been researching the market for 4 months and I found that you either needed to spend over $1,000 or compromise on features. After searching and searching, many of the online reviews I read came back to this model of monitor. So, I finally bought it and I couldnt be happier. The colors are amazing and I feel much more confident in my photo editing. Plus, I didnt need a second mortgage on my house to buy this monitor. I highly recommend it. It comes calibrated for colors right out of the box!

Excellent image quality on screen and no color calibration.needed
Luna Daugherty (verified owner) –
This monitor displays well, is sturdy and heavy and has plenty of options to calibrate the color. Im a designer so I need this type of monitor to do my work and I think its a great option

I was looking for a monitor that allows me to work with 4 documents at the same time when I want to work from home but at the same time a good one that allows me to get the most of my hobbies: Photo & video editing. I tried the curved one from LG & if yes its great, its too narrow that only two documents side by side looks good, divide it in 4 it just didnt work for me. After checking reviews all over the internet I took a chance on this one and TOTALLY worth it. the 4K allows me to partition the monitor perfect in 4 documents at the same time totally versatile and the color calibration its perfect for my photos. the Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) Switch its AWESOME! controlling my personal Laptop & work station with one monitor & one keyboard-mouse its extremely handy. the hotkey puck its the cherry on top for a quick access to all settings. best investment if you are serious on getting a high quality 4K versatile monitor.

This is a not 10 bit monitor. The real specs is 8 bit + frc

I had a Dell 30″ monitor that went out. It was a 1610 monitor and this BenQ is a 16:9. So, I lost about 1/4 inch in the height but gained almost 2″ in width. I am a photographer and love the ease of having 4 color profiles at the press of the hot-key that is included. And you can also set up where the left half of the screen is in a different color screen from the right, ..or to have the whole screen on one color space. I love that it’s 4k resolution, great for getting all my Photoshop or Video tools open and still have enough editing space. -I do find that the text on Mac OS is a bit small but I’m getting used to it by making changes within each program’s preferences. Very happy with this choice and if you want color profile calibration built in you have to get the monitor that is almost twice expensive but for me I am happy with this one.

can’t say enough about this 32” PD3200U. perfect size at native res. the 28 would be a bit small as a returned the smaller 27” in favor of this beauty. it’s stunning and the text is razor sharp on my windows 10 machine. needed to upgrade the video card as going from 30 to 60HZ was a big difference in smoothness.

I’m not professional (CAD designer, graphic artist, animator, etc). But I do work with my eyes extensively, since I’m a radiologist. I upgraded from a first generation Dell 4K monitor, which was just too blurry and lacking in contrast for my needs. This new BenQ PD3200U monitor is a huge upgrade. The color is spot on out of the box. Texts appear sharp and contrasty, making them easy to read. This is by far the best monitor I’ve owned. If you read the specs, the IPS panel used by this monitor is the same one used in professional monitors that cost around $2700. So you’re getting a lot for your money. Highly recommended!

horrible menu, inputs not responsible. I have it for a month, still struggling
Craig Pollich (verified owner) –
Great monitor for web designers and developers alike. Stunning screen, fantastic colors. Tested with a mac and windows pc – no issues. The stand is great as well – very easy to raise / lower / tilt and even rotate the screen. B&H where quick to ship – happy with this transaction – no regrets!

Color is nice and bright, very easy to hook up to my computer.

upgrading from an old HPZR30″ 2K monitor – win. Factory calibrated full color gamut is excellent; fist thing I noticed is White is White again. Use for gaming/CAD/Office. There’s no 144Hz, not curved 4K – so right choice for me! Only Con – no integral AESA mount capability.

KVM requires computers to be awake before it will work, so no hope in waking a computer up from sleep. Just get a USB switch and configure the buttons to switch video inputs.

I am enjoying the clarity of this display. I’m not seeing the flickering that many talk about. Maybe that happens as they age? So far so good.
Rosella Rau (verified owner) –
After shopping monitors for about a year. I finally decided on this model and am very happy with it. The display is amazing! I love the colors on this panel. So far, I’ve had no flickering issues (which kept me from originally buying this a few months ago). My monitor has a mfg date of Jan 2019. Maybe the newer ones have a fix already out of the box. Another issue I was worried about was back light bleed. When I first got this monitor it did have light bleeding from the right corners, but after a week this has disappeared. I’ve been through a half a dozen VA panels before this that had insanely bad clouding or light bleed issues as well as color inaccuracies (*cough* Samsung *cough*). This monitor is also built very well. The base is sturdy and it can pivot or swivel any way i need it to. The built in card readers also come in handy. One of my favorite features is actually the eco sensor, which detects if I’ve left my desk and kicks the monitor off ’til I sit back down. That and the puck for quick changing modes or navigating the settings menu (which I didn’t think I would actually use). My only complaint is you cannot set the standard color profile mode as one of the puck’s shortcuts. So far, I’m loving this monitor and haven’t had any issues (cross my fingers). I think this is still one of the best options out there for a 4k or color accurate monitor, especially for graphics use, which was my main reason for purchasing.

I ended up purchasing the 32 PD3200U after buying and returning the 27 PD2700U. I liked the 27, but due to the way macOS handles scaled resolutions (and lack of system-wide UI scaling) I had to run it at 3840 x 2160-everything was too small-or at 1920 x 1080-everything was *way* too large and I wasn’t gaining much in the way of screen real estate over my MacBook Pro’s built-in 13.3 display. Running the monitor at any other resolution simply results in too much lag (macOS warns about this-Using a scaled resolution may affect performance). With the 32 running at 3840 x 2160, I get a ton of extra real estate for InDesign and Photoshop palettes without the need to squint. The color on the PD3200U seems good out of the box (I’ve yet to test the factory calibration), the build quality is great across the board, and the buttons for controlling the OSD are touch-sensitive-no accidentally adjusting the angle of the monitor when all you want to do is turn down the brightness. And while the PD3200U might look a little dated, it doesn’t suffer from shadows along the left and right edges the way the PD2700U does (I believe this is due to the thinner bezels on the 27 monitor-it was very noticeable unless I was looking at it straight on from at least 3 feet away). All in all, I’m happy thus far. I can work from home on days that I need to without hunching over my MacBook, and I can fit enough on screen to make a dual monitor setup unnecessary.
