BenQ GW2790QT 27 Inch 2K QHD Eye-Care IPS Monitor
BenQ GW2790QT is a 27-inch monitor that offers a comprehensive suite of features catering to a variety of user needs, from professional work to casual entertainment. With a QHD resolution of 2560x1440, the display delivers sharp and clear visuals, boasting a pixel density of 109 pixels per inch (PPI). This higher resolution on a relatively moderate-sized screen ensures that text and images are crisp, making it suitable for tasks that require attention to detail, such as graphic design, video editing, and general productivity work. The monitor features an IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel, which is renowned for providing excellent color accuracy and wide viewing angles of 178° both horizontally and vertically. This means that the screen can be viewed from almost any angle without significant color distortion or loss of image quality, making it ideal for collaborative environments and dual-monitor setups. The anti-glare surface further enhances visibility by reducing reflections, which is particularly beneficial in brightly lit rooms. With a typical brightness of 350 nits and a contrast ratio of 1000:1, the GW2790QT offers vibrant colors and deep blacks, enhancing the overall viewing experience. It supports 16.7 million colors and covers 99% of the sRGB color gamut, which ensures accurate color reproduction, critical for photo and video editing tasks. The monitor's refresh rate of 75 Hz and a response time of 5ms (GTG) provide smooth performance for everyday use and casual gaming. While it may not cater to hardcore gamers due to its relatively moderate refresh rate, it is more than adequate for most users. Ergonomically, the GW2790QT is designed to provide maximum comfort. It offers tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustments, allowing users to position the monitor to their preferred viewing angle and height, which is essential for long hours of use. It is also VESA wall mount compatible, providing additional flexibility for workspace setup. The monitor comes with several eye-care technologies certified by TUV, including flicker-free technology and low blue light modes, which help reduce eye strain during extended use. Additional features like Brightness Intelligence Technology (B.I.Tech.) adjust the screen brightness based on ambient lighting, enhancing viewing comfort and reducing eye fatigue. Connectivity options are robust, including a VGA port, a DisplayPort 1.2, an HDMI 1.4 port, three USB 3.2 ports, a USB Type-C port, and an audio jack. This variety ensures compatibility with a wide range of devices, from older computers to modern laptops and peripherals. The built-in speakers (2Wx2) and a noise-canceling microphone add to the monitor’s utility, making it suitable for video conferencing and multimedia consumption without needing additional external devices. In terms of physical dimensions, the monitor stands 21.0 inches tall with the stand, with a width of 24.2 inches and a depth of 9.4 inches. Without the base, the monitor's depth reduces to a sleek 2.4 inches, making it easy to fit into various setups. It weighs 18.5 pounds with the stand, and 12.1 pounds without, ensuring it is sturdy yet manageable. Overall, the BenQ GW2790QT is a versatile and well-rounded monitor, offering a high-quality display, ergonomic design, and a wide range of connectivity options, making it suitable for a diverse range of users and applications.
