[23.8"] Used for business. Great monitor. Good color, professional look. Not for gaming as refresh rate is only 60hz. But for productivity and business, it's a great deal. 5

Josh W.	04/09/2024
[100 x 100 mm] Let me preface this review by saying that I have used a lot of monitors in the last few years all the way from $100-$450, All types of panels from VA, IPS and TN. All types of resolutions from 1080p, 3440x1440, 1440p, 4k. I haven't owned a BenQ monitor before this, That being said I watched quite a few reviews on youtube and this one came highly recommended as the best value 1080p gaming monitor of 2023, 400 nits at this price point is unheard of and it's VERY bright which I like. The monitor is a bit chunky compared to some others but that really doesn't matter to me as the stand and overall build quality feels more like 300$ not 120$. I can't stress enough of how good of a deal this monitor is at $120. Pros: Packaged well to avoid damage. Amazing stand that feels very stable with no wobble. Very bright screen 350-400 Nits. No dead pixels out of the box. Comes with both HDMI and DP cables. Built-in USB 3.0 Hub with cable. Cons: I don't like the orange accents on the stand but what can you do. 5

[23.8"] This is a large, nice thin screen with great crisp clear resolution! Love It! 5

Paul	13/08/2024
[178 x 178°] Using on an Asus Chrome box with the included HDMI cable. Was no problem to hook up and get started. Great picture and plenty of adjustments on monitor to get my brightness and tint where I want it. Stand arms are long but there is extra desk space where a normal stand would be so it is a win for me. Would buy this again. 5

[93 ppi] Easy setup. No complaints at this price-point. 5

[IPS-Type LCD] Monitor arrived very quickly compared to other vendors. Package was in great shape, monitor box was enclosed within another box for secure transport - much appreciated since it minimizes chance for dead pixels. Strong monitor performance, easy on the eyes when reviewing text across many fonts and also has a great dynamic range: handles video replay very well. USB ports minimize the need for USB adapters on notebooks so the monitor almost serves as its own hub/dock with only a USB-C adapter. Very happy since it also has white borders around the display. Thank you 5

[1920 x 1080] A very nice monitor. Feels very high quality and putting it together was super easy. Colors are fantastic. I'm glad I purchased this model. 5

[1300:1] This is an excellent monitor at an amazing price. Does exactly what I needed and is perfect. Great image and features/functionality. 5

Michael	06/05/2024
[1920 x 1080] Image quality galore, with near infinite adjustment to meet any need. The only shortcoming for my use is the lack of a USB-C input for video/audio. That flexibility would be helpful. 5
