EW3270U

Owning a Xbox One X, getting a decent 4K UHD screen that has a low input lag (time lag between console image transmission to actual screen display) is essential. Especially if one plays any kind of game with very fast moving images, that also requires fast reactions. One need only look at your 4K UHD TV options to know that the best ones cost a fortune compared to the cost of a Xbox One X (or PS4 Pro). Moreoever, the budget TVs are not without their significant caveats. Namely, significant input lag and low native frame rates of 50Hz. This is where this adequately sized and reasonably priced BenQ monitor comes in. Being a 32 inch, 4K UHD monitor, which is natively 60Hz, with an excellent input lag of just 1ms, this has performed excellently for gaming, and for 4K movies alike. It produces crisp and clear images at 4K resolution, and it's HDR function showcases a wider variety of contrast. However, it's HDR function has limited options to adjust while in HDR mode; which is arguably not that significant if you received a model with the latest firmware. There are essentially a high brightness and low brightness setting for this, and generally speaking, I would recommend the low brightness setting, as the high brightness setting tends to display reds/orange colours a bit too brightly. The other limitation are its internal speakers, which one should never use; the speakers are terrible. This is easily mitigated by picking up a set of external speakers, such as simple £20 Logitech speakers that will phenomenally improve your sound experience, or better yet, a soundbar with a remote control to allow you to change the volume as necessary from your own seat. One could also connect this to a surround sound system, but a bigger and better TV would be suggested for that. Having connected this monitor to my Xbox One X, and using the console as my all in one media device (as it was originally designed to be), I can say that this is easily the best value for money 4K UHD screen that functions not only as a 4K TV for me, but as an excellent monitor for gaming and 4K movies. I would absolutely recommend this as the best value budget choice, for anyone with a 4K gaming console, needing a reasonably priced screen to fully utilise the capabilities of their console, without burning a hole in your wallet.

I've been a fan of BenQ monitors for over a decade now and decided it was time for an upgrade from a Full-HD EW2750ZL as I now have the PC horsepower to pull 4K at 60FPS or above in many games. The games where I can't manage this still look great rendered at 2K or 3K then GPU upscaled to 4K with Radeon Image Sharpening on an AMD RX Vega 56. This monitor's FreeSync feature works perfectly for ironing out the occasional dip below 60FPS (as low as 40FPS) without any stutters. Input lag is stated in many independent reviews as being around 10 milliseconds. I have no way of confirming this but am inclined to believe it as there's no apparent lag even in fast-paced games. This equates to well under one frame at 60Hz, so I can't imagine anyone having a problem with it. The panel's 3000:1 static contrast ratio and DCI-P3 colour gamut leads to much deeper blacks than any TN or IPS panel as well as colours that pop nicely. If it pops too much for anyone's liking, they can always rein it in by either selecting the monitor's sRGB picture mode or dialling back the saturation. There is a slight glow in the lower left-hand corner on mine, but it's standard practice for me to install sufficiently bright bias lighting behind a monitor to give the impression that blacks are actually black. Under these conditions, it's barely perceptible. I can certainly happily live with it. Movies look fantastic! My movie archive is always played back via Media Player Classic - Black Edition with the aid of madVR precision rendering and this monitor blows my similarly priced Toshiba TV away in terms of overall clarity and perceived image depth, especially with the room lights out. I've very little to add really except to say that if you're familiar with the pros and cons of a VA panel (actually MVA in this instance) then this monitor is unlikely to give you any unpleasant surprises. There are better monitors around dedicated to specific tasks for a similar price, but this is an excellent all-rounder.

This is a decent 4K monitor. However, it requires a few tweaks. DisplayPort 1.4 Cable is a must. Without it, you will not be able to set the output to the highest possible standard. Let me tell you all the steps you need to take (Windows 10 with GTX 1080Ti): Windows Settings -> Display: set Windows HD Colour - Play HDR games and apps to ON. With this, your desktop and apps & games will support HDR output. Games without HDR support will still work on fullscreen in normal preset (SDR) mode - choose and set your preset while in the game so it will be set permanently for this non-HDR mode. I'll tell more about it later NVIDIA Control Panel -> Change resolution: Apply the following settings: Desktop colour depth: 32bit Output colour depth: 10 bpc Output colour format: RGB Output dynamic range: Full This is very important. Without it, the output dynamic range will be limited (RGB 17-255) and there will be no real black colour. Everything will be washed out as I presented in two pictures - two are perfectly black monitor with Full output dynamic range and manual SDR adjustment, and other 3 pictures are Limited RGB range and no preset done - image is awful. Also, make sure that you have Displayport cable version 1.4 (32Gbps), ONLY THIS ONE is able to display 4K 60 Hz 10bpc HDR image. This cable is not included, you need to purchase it. I got one from Amazon for £13, not cheap. Benq only adds USB C, HDMI and Mini DisplayPort cables. SDR preset: choose User Mode and set the following: Brightness -> 68 Contrast -> 48 Gamma -> 3 Color Temperature -> User Define -> R 100, G 96, B 100 Please see great Tom's Hardware review to see more details. Summary: Overall, this is a great 32" monitor and works perfectly for me with 125% interface size setting. Image is great, I am no expert, I don't do any photo editing, so this one works just fine, for multimedia HDR content and for normal work in SDR mode. Enjoy :)

Purchased 8 months, it was the best I could afford and I crossed my fingers and hoped it would be okay. I work in 3D animation for VR, and when my old monitor suddenly died in the middle of a project, at the time even £300 was a stretch and I certainly couldn't afford a high-end professional monitor. I'm very pleased to say that the monitor was factory calibrated well and after disabling every alt option, like hdr, what I got was an excellent monitor. Pros: Colour accuracy for srgb applications, sharpness, very little light bleed, comfortable to look at hours on end and bonus - looks very smart on my desk. Has speakers. Cons: Speakers are token - but occasionally useful. Usb connection for data only and doesn't provide power. Viewing angle fairly narrow, but easily fills field of vision at normal working distance. Particularly for the money, heartily recommended, just remember to switch off any optional processing.

Only recently have I looked into 4k monitors both as a gamer, drone flyer and photographer. I bought a Benq 28" last year and that is very good. In an attempt to move away from a multi monitor desk and actually tidy things up a bit for my main gaming computer I treated myself to this. It's a big beast, but looks great. I have a attached to a gaming laptop happy to run at 4k and push many games through at that level. I can't say it's improved my gaming in any way but it certainly has made things look very nice. Its a fairly clean design that looks nice on my desk, I have a second PC plugged in as well and the menu controls are easy and simple. As a photographer I find that the colour reproduction is excellent, contrast, brightness and set up all very good and easy. Connectivity is also good with DP, HDMI, USB-C all available. Nice to see VESA compatible mounting holes on the rear as well. The biggest surprise is that the speakers are actually OK, they aren't amazing but compared to most TV/Monitor built in's they are certainly good enough to use. There is a minor niggle which is worth noting, the base is well weighted, sturdy and keeps everything stable. BUT no height adjustment, which is a shame. this is a big piece of tech and to appreciate it fully you want to be sat right to use it for whatever purpose you have. I'm tall, 6'4" so standing this on an average desk means I am looking down into it slightly, luckily I have both a monitor stand with adjustable legs, which works fine, if not I do have a monitor arm hiding some place. In all honesty for a 32" 4k gaming monitor costing under £300 this is not a deal breaker and to be 100% honest with you, this is the ONLY issue I can find. For gaming its a big improvement from all the HD monitors I have and compared to the 28" it's a nicer cleaner design and that extra size makes a big difference to the experience, more immersive. For gaming, photo editing, 4k video editing and just about every other use for my computer this has moved the goal posts for me. Very impressed with the image quality and the build quality.

Coming from an Acer Predator IPS 165Hz G-sync monitor and using a 7700k and GTX 1080Ti was a definite change. I originally bought one of these for my Xbox One X (HDR mainly) as I use that for 4k Bluray, Netflix, Prime Video UHD etc. EDIT: several months after buying both the panels developed an issue with colour/brightness uniformity for no discernable reason. This got worse over the period of two weeks and I had to send both back. I moved over to a 4k60 IPS 27" IPS (LG) as secondary and X34P as primary which have both performed well. I was quite impressed so sold my Acer Pred and bought a second as a main PC monitor too. Pros: -4k HDR (350-400nits in reviews). This may not be HDR 1000 Nits but it makes a massive difference to HDR content over an SDR display. Shadows and definition between middle greys, browns are clear; with colours appearing more vivid and punchy. -Value - The next 4k HDR 32" is an LG at over £800. I bought this at £400 which shows brilliant value for money. -Stand is decent (although I vesa mounted). -Bezels are not tiny, but also not large like some. -No "gamer" aesthetic" which I found an issue with the old Acer Pred -Ghosting is very minimal, which I find an issue with a similar samsung panel I own. Cons -It's only a matter of time before a 4k HDR 144Hz version is released at 32". This will be £1000 or so though. -Va panel has good blacks and contrast but viewing angle is not quite that of an IPS. Much better than a TN though.

This is my first BenQ monitor, and on the whole I'm pretty pleased with it - I got it primarily for Xbox 1 gaming, with some Netflix and Amazon Prime viewing. It's also used for a bit of photo editing with Lightroom, plugging a MacBook Pro into it with USB C, which works great. For gaming, it seems pretty responsive, and it's razor sharp though the Xbox. It replaced a 5 or 6 year old Ilyama, which definitely had a bit of lag/smearing on fast moving stuff. Diamond pickaxe action in Minecraft, for example, had a bit of colour blur which was quite distracting, but there's no sign of this at all with the BenQ. Rapid camera movement in Destiny or Halo for example is smooth and jitter free. It's HDR implementation (an impression of, rather than actual HDR10 I believe, as it doesn't have high enough contrast ratio) is nice, but let down by the viewing angle - it does have a wide viewing angle, but the blacks dissolve into grey unless you're directly in front of it. I'm sitting about 4 feet from it, and the centre's pretty good, but left and right are just not as dark. Moving your head over brings the black back. I'm a fan of sci fi stuff which is often fairly dark, and it really lets it down. Having said that, everything else is really good - colours rich, bright and punchy when needed, highlights are clean and shadows, if you're in the right spot in front of it, dark but detailed. The Expanse, Star Trek Discovery and Lost in Space for example, are all just awesome in 4K. (there's no visible pixels... you can see film grain...!) BenQ's ambient light sensor thing isn't something I was over excited about, however it's surprisingly subtle but effective, controlling colour temperature and brightness in response to your room conditions. I haven't used the supplied stand, my screen's on a wall (standard VESA 100 mount) but it's pretty solid looking and quite nicely finished. A last point for USB C MacBook Pro users, is that it has a profile to match the MacBooks display, which it does well. So on the whole, yes, pretty good - if you're unfortunate enough to have giant spreadsheets to look at, I imagine it would be spectacularly helpful. For gaming, with its quick response rate, yes; good. For movies, meh, reasonable - a super detailed picture, but for me, let down by the lack of deep blacks away from a dead centre viewing angle.

This is a great monitor for good productivity. The screen is satisfying and reading is accurate even if you have bad eyesight as I do. I do recommend. A few negatives that did not bother me: sound coming from the monitor is not that good; it is not height adjustable. The positives is the good resolution and size which is perfect for programming, having several windows open and multitasking. I have done extensive research and tried several monitors before getting this one. This one was the best in terms of outcomes. All in all this type of equipment with better specs and size is not cheap, so this monitor is not "cheap" but it is seems to be reasonably priced for the specs in my opinion. It would be nice height adjustable, better sound, able to rotate the monitor. I am no expert in color and image quality of monitors but in terms of resolution is good. You will have good quality image of text presented in the screen

كل حاجه فيها فعلا جميله ماعدا ودي أنا شاري وعارف بيها إنه الإضاءة مش أعلى حاجه، لكن لو غرفة عادية الإضاءة زي الفل

Works like intended.. no plm at all

Przesiadłem się z wieloletniego full HD też Benq, z którego byłem zadowolony, ale jednak 4K to inna bajka - nie wyobrażam sobie powrotu już . Co do jakości obrazu to ja póki co jestem bardzo zadowolony - po zwykłej 'kalibracji' na trybie nawet standardowym z plansz testowych (bez urządzeń zewnętrznych) i przede wszystkim ustawieniu odpowiedniego wsp. gamma i wyglądu czcionek w windowsach to przejście z poprzedniego Benq,to jak przesiadka z fiata do merca lub wyżej (za te pieniądze, bo nie wątpię iż są lepsze monitory). Co do panelu VA to u mnie kolory na moje oko (foto amatora) są poprawne, podświetlenie równomierne, czarny nie jest 'oledowy', ale drobne podświetlenie widać jedynie przy prawie zupełnie ciemnym otoczeniu. Przy oświetleniu dziennym czy za monitorem w nocy nie widać nic, czego nie mogę powiedzieć o kiedyś nabytym monitorze IPS. Co do zmian kolorów na rantach - jak się bliżej przyjrzeć i ruszać głową to faktycznie jest to zauważalne jak to na VA, ale dla mnie osobiście nie jest to wielki problem, przynajmniej mniej dokuczliwy jak słaby kontrast i 'srebrzenie' na IPS. Oled tutaj byłby pewnie ideałem, ale niestety ceny 4K dla 32 cali to na razie kosmos ;-). Jak wspominałem zajmuję się amatorsko fotografią i tutaj jest przepaść jakościowa do poprzedniego - poczynając od wielkości obszaru roboczego, poprzez gęstość ppi (co ma znaczenie też przy powiększeniach) czy jakość, przejścia tonalne etc... Obróbka stała się znacznie, znacznie przyjemniejsza i dokładniejsza. Dokumenty czy strony web wyglądają świetnie - wreszcie brak pixeli :-). Filmy czy seriale też nie narzekam - przy treściach 1080p skalowanie jest ok (przyznam, że stary tv lg robi to lepiej), przy 4K i dobrym materiale obraz jest już bez zarzutu i po prostu cieszy oko. Jest mnóstwo opcji i trybów (w tym HDR), ale dla mnie najlepszy jest standardowy po lekkiej kalibracji i czasami załączam filtr światła niebieskiego. Myślę, że za te pieniądze (ok. 1400zł) to całkiem fajny wybór.

Il Benq EW3270U dopo averlo provato per un paio di settimane risulta un ottimo monitor tuttofare. E' ideale per chi vuole un monitor di grosse dimensioni, di alto livello, spendendo il giusto. Si tratta di un monitor con pannello VA , il chè ha i suoi pro e i suoi contro. Per quanto riguarda le note positive possiamo dire che il pannello ha un contrasto e dei colori mozzafiato (contrasto superiore 3000:1, nero ancora più nero e colori più brillanti rispetto ad un IPS, sempre se si usa un cavo display-port, non incluso), che lo rende perfetto per l'intrattenimento video (film e videogiochi a 60hz). Dall'altro lato però abbiamo un angolo abbastanza limitato (grossa differenza tra un IPS e un VA) e la mancanza di una precisa uniformità di luminosità attraverso il pannello che si nota unicamente quando si utilizzano sfondi in tinta unita; questo fa si che il monitor non risulti particolarmente adatto a chi cerca un display per il fotoritocco a livelli professionali (per questo c'è il PD3200U al doppio del prezzo). Basta guardare la terza foto dove, utilizzando colore e posizione defilata il più sfavorevole possibile, si possono vedere delle bande più scure e più chiare le une vicine alle altre. E' chiaramente un caso limite e la foto del telefono va tralaltro ad ingigantire il difetto che nella realtà non è certamente così evidente. Anzi. potete vedere invece dalla prima foto, dove viene utilizzato un classico sfondo con immagine,che i colori e le sfumature sono pazzesche, non ho mai visto una qualità del genere su un monitor in quanto a contrasto, profondità di colore e brillantezza (vengo da un TN gaming sempre della Benq che ho appena lanciato dal balcone). Questo per farvi capire che la qualità del monitor nonostante i limiti del pannello VA rimane altissima. Dovete solo riflettere sull'uso che ne farete. Essendo un monitor VA, non è nato per grafica professionale, ma per intrattenimento video . Ed è per questo che punta a darvi tutta la tecnologia possibile sul mercato: 4k, HDR, Eye care, ecc.. senza pensare all'uniformità di colore che durante un film o un videogioco non avrete mai e non ne avreste mai bisogno. Per quanto riguarda i tempi di risposta , non c'è assolutamente effetto ghosting, e il monitor risulta addirittura compatibile , anche se non nativamente, con la tecnologia G-sync . L'ho provato con programmi di disegno quali Inventor , Solidworks e Autocad e la risoluzione 4k è devastante sembra di avere 2 monitor attaccati. Anche con programmi di grafica quali Photoshop e Illustrator, risulta una bomba (nonostante i limiti del pannello evidenziati precedentemente). Non ho avuto la possibilità di confrontarlo con altri monitor di tale livello, tuttavia mi ritengo pienamente soddisfatto e sicuro di consigliarlo a chiunque non faccia della fotografia o del fotoritocco il proprio lavoro principale.
