Style Name: IPS Panel/HDMI/SpeakerSize Name: 24-inchVerified Purchase

Within the first few days of purchase, a bright pixel stuck on my screen（see first photo). So I contacted the seller, I was told to contact BanQ Australia. Unfortunately their warranty only covers LCD screens with more than 5 bright pixels. Now it is the 6th week of my ownership of this monitor, the display cable port simply stopped working (see photo 2), I had to use a HDMI cable in conjunction with a travel docking station in order to maintain my current need to use two monitors for work.
I was impressed with the price and the built when I first got it, now I regret not spending more to get a better quality monitor.

This monitor is perfect to connect to a work issued tablet while working from home full time. It was easy to set up, with no installation required. Took a few days to ship but once it was on its way it arrived quickly.

Connects via HDMI. Works wonders as laptop screen since I currently don’t own a PC. Pixel quality is pretty good for the cost of the monitor. Haven’t had any problems with it so far, seems to be keeping up to the standard. No problems with my eyes while using it (I work on a computer all day at work and I come home and do another part time job online so this is good for someone who has to look at screens all day).

The product fulfilled my expectations perfectly. A great screen to do your office work without straining the eyes. Clear and flicker free. Seeing what was available in the market I was uneasy about getting a monitor in the lower price range. I believe I choose well.

I have this screen and the previous model also. They are good because they have dual HDMI and speakers. The speakers are nothing special and not loud either but good enough if you want sound through an hdmi source like a Xbox/Chromecast or a Rasberry Pi as I do. Also has the regular pc screen connection.

I bought this to work mainly on documents. I'm not a graphic artist/ designer or any such person. I just needed a practical monitor that I can use in my studies.
The monitor does not go up and down, so if you're going to have to buy a stand for it, I suggest you invest in a monitor that moves height-wise.

This is a great monitor for working from home. It was very easy to set up (connected to my Mac Book Pro via HDMI) and I love that it will auto adjust the brightness based on the ambient light conditions. The build in speaker is also useful. Very happy with my purchase.

Incredible value for money. I'd recommend this for anyone

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 May 2018

Style Name: IPS Panel/HDMI/SpeakerSize Name: 24-inchVerified Purchase

Firstly, I've previously purchased and returned x2 PG279QR IPS ASUS monitors, and I've also returned a PG278QR TN Panel ASUS monitor because the quality control is so poor imo. They both cost well above £500. The IPS on those panels had terrible backlight bleeding, and the high refresh rate and G-Sync still didn't justify the price. I decided to settle for this. A sub -£200 24 inch IPS monitor in the meantime, and I'm so glad I did. I'm so impressed! I've overclocked it to 84hz on my 1080ti to make things a little smoother, and the screen is beautiful to look at. For £119 it has the tiniest of back light bleed on the top left, it's not even noticeable check my pictures. On previous expensive monitors back-light bleeding is a terrible eye sore it ruined everything good.

I have 2 small cons, and they aren't even big. The screen could be a tiny bit brighter, so that during bright summer days it stands out a bit more. But it's perfect in the dark and again not even really an issue. And the speakers are quiet and tinny. But to be honest. I don't care, I have speakers plugged in for that exact reason, but the fact it has them at all is still really nice. Dropping from 2k to 1080p I thought I'd notice too, but to be honest, after adjusting the picture and sharpness, I can honestly live with it. The colour depth is lovely and I'm just impressed. I'm tempted to get a second and have a dual monitor display. The stand can be a tiny bit wobbly, but as long as you're not banging around again, it's firmly supported and not a problem.

Cable management is a nice after thought. Supports Displayport. Nice matte screen finish. Anti scratch surface (I have a pet hate of shiny surfaces).
Screen tearing isn't even that bad, maybe running at 84hz helps. But I'm enjoying gaming on this and I've tried 2 different gaming high refresh rate monitors before this!

If you're in doubt go for it.

** Update 2 Weeks later **

I’ve decided to sadly drop this to 4 stars. All the pros I’ve mentioned still stand strong. I ordered a 2nd monitor and now I have an excellent duel monitor setup. However viewing a black screen I have noticed the backlight bleed along the top and left hand side are considerably more noticeable now especially when warm - and I’m pretty picky. However, at this price, and since backlight bleed is obviously unavoidable when it comes to an IPS screen I feel it’s a good compromise. But just worth mentioning.

** UPDATE AGAIN IN 2020 ** - I bought the first two a few years ago. I recently settled for a 3rd monitor to accommodate my gaming/multitasking and work. I've placed the new monitor in the middle and the two previous monitors either side, I have to say, I'm impressed. Over time the backlight bleed in the top left corner of my original two I would say got a tiny tiny bit worse, but not catastrophically, and it didn't ruin the image for me at all (I nit-pick so I do seek it out when I'm presented with a black screen in some sort of weird hope that it's rectified itself which of course is wishful thinking). But this new monitor has a definite improvement in BLB. It's barely there at all. I notice the bottom bezel of the screen wasn't as tight fitting to the panel (concerned me at first). But I suspect it's in an attempt to put less stress on the panel and allow less light to leak. I've noticed as well this screen seems much richer in contrast and colour. The blacks are much, much improved showing almost no glow. Something I didn't even notice on my previous monitors. So I'd say there's been an improvement in quality/control since I bought my first two. The buttons are slightly less tactile but I barely use them. It's almost a bit annoying now the main middle monitor is slightly better than the other two. However - I'm keeping an eye out for a Spyder 5 pro 2nd hand to try and match the colour profiles/look across all 3 screens anyway. So hopefully after that they're all as close to each other in terms of picture as possible - Long story short, I still love these monitors. I'd bump it to 4.5 stars if I could, since the backlight bleed has been significantly reduced. My new monitor can clock to 77HZ, anything over that and it fails. I have them setup on a 3 monitor arm (which I'd highly recommend as the stand can be a tiny bit wobbly).

Good value for money, but check your settings!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 November 2019

Style Name: VA Panel/HDMI/Speaker/B.I.Size Name: 22-inchVerified Purchase

Upon unboxing, the screen looked very washed out, similar to changing the white balance on a camera to +5. After playing around with the settings, the monitor is perfect for the price!

So that the picture settings aren’t greyed out, go to: Picture Advanced > Picture Mode > User

The following settings I have used are:
Picture Advanced > HDMI RGB PC Range > RGB 16~235
Picture > Gamma > 5

I bought this product because I edit videos for a living.
I have a YouTube channel: KTNTECH (You'll find the unboxing and impressions video there)
If you're a gamer do not go with this one.
Because it's an IPS Panel the response times are a lil less and there are tad bit jelly effect while gaming.
If you're a photo/video editor definitely this is for you at least on this budget.
Thanks for reading.
Don't forget to check out the channel :)

Best 27" IPS Monitor @ Rs 15,499

Reviewed in India on 13 February 2018

Style Name: IPS Panel/HDMI/SpeakerSize Name: 27-inchVerified Purchase

Bought this monitor on 5th Jan 2018 at Rs. 15,499 in lightning deal

Following are my observations:
1) The first thing I noticed is that top and side bezels of the monitor are very thin which is aesthetically pleasing and gives it a premium look.
2) Screen is decent and has good brightness and contrast. Not sure about color reproduction but it feels alright.
3) Screen has a refresh rate of 60 Hz at 1920x1080 resolution. However it has an option of 75 Hz at 1024x768 resolution also.
4) Even though this monitor has Eye Care (Bright Intelligence), I felt that the sensor adjusted brightness is on higher side for my liking.
5) There is slight backlight bleed at top left corner of monitor which is noticeable only in very dark environments but overall has uniform IPS Glow.
6) Response time mentioned on the box is 5ms (Gray to Gray) and I felt it to be good for FPS games. Overall, it's a good monitor for casual gaming.
7) It comes with UK style power cord and needs a converter/adapter or a spike guard will work.
8) The box also includes HDMI cable and the monitor has cable management as shown in product description which I felt is a nice addition to the package.

Monitor has following ports:
D-Sub
HDMI Port
Display Port
Line-in port and
3.5 mm jack for plugging in earphones

This monitor also has in-built speakers which are pointed downwards. The quality of audio from them is nothing to brag about and max volume is that of a typical tablet (my iPad Pro 12.9" 2017 has better sound output than them) but no complaints here considering the price of the monitor.

Overall this monitor is value for money product considering the price I got it for.
Cheers to Amazon for on-time delivery.

Feel free to ask any questions about the product, will be glad to help!

Excellent value for money product.

Style Name: IPS Panel/HDMI/SpeakerSize Name: 27-inchVerified Purchase

I have worked on many monitors (Dell, HP, Acer) in office and home. Never had a Benq. I will get this out of the way, my favourite brand is Dell (I have bought around 10 products). I was torn between the Dell (2717H), Viewsonic and Acer. For some reason I never had a good experience with products of HP.

My requirement was a 27" monitor. I am not a serious gamer only play casual games from time to time. The main purpose was to do programming and watching videos (and reading). This monitor suits perfectly.
Pros:
- Excellent display. It had a bit of light bleed on top right corner but it was just the glass a bit out. I just pressed it in and the bleed was gone.
- Good contrast and viewing angles. I have not played any FPS games till now but overall the experience till now (10 days) has been smooth and consistent. The 5ms response time is good enough for me.
- Although it is a 1080p display, the text and videos appear sharp, no pixelation or ghosting. Colours are uniform and even.
- Bluelight filtering is good. Helps when reading a long book / article and puts less strain in the eyes.
Cons:
- The Eyecare feature is a bit aggressive. The display becomes too bright for the surrounding light. I just switched it to standard and set the brightness and contrast to levels I am comfortable with. The day/night light in my room doesn't differ much so I don't need to change the settings.

Other monitors with similar features were around or over 20k, I got this for 17k. Overall a very good budget monitor. It also has 3 years warranty which is good and tells that I can expect a pretty long life from this.

Let me know if you need to know more.
