Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this for my son for gaming. Good size and great graphics!

Decided to get a BenQ monitor after seeing it being used in COD tournaments.. And it is one of the best purchases I have made for gaming. No input lag, no ugly colors. Improved my COD'ing.

This is a nice Monitor *******************************

Big and clear. I am spoiled now and can't work just on my laptop. Always want the big screen. No need for glasses

Great monitor that gives a comparable resolution to a higher end monitor. For the price it is more then worth it.

The monitor is working out for my business needs. Easy to set-up and the viewing suits my needs. I use this monitor in my business and not for gaming. Worth the price...good deal for the size!

I bought these monitors because I wanted to go bigger. They turned out to be excellent !!

real nice monitor. good crisp picture and color. great value

Overall a pretty good monitor especially when you get it for over half off!

Bought these for computers at our office. These were recommended by our IT provider. Great value - works well.

I had previous version of it. very good monitor quality/price. I will buy this again.

I bought this monitor through Amazon because I didn't want to wait the ~2 weeks for shipping through Best Buy. Bad decision. The monitor is not Mac-friendly. I followed the directions to connect and set up the first time, but the monitor said no signal. No customer support was available from Benq at that hour. I went to bed. Next morning, I found a button which cycled through the cable inputs. It finally found the HDMI cable. Success I thought! All's well. Beautiful monitor. HOWEVER, I later noticed that the screen would have an annoying green tint upon waking. I could never get rid of it reliably. It only did this on the Mac Mini, not my PowerBook or Dell Laptop. I tried and tried. Got Apple support to help me reset the PRAM. I finally bought the 27" Acer monitor from Best Buy - available in store, and returned the BenQ monitor. I prefer the BenQ stand to the Acer stand, but I have it on a swing arm mount anyway. The BenQ is a great monitor at a great price - usually available for around 170-180. But order from Best Buy and get the Geek Squad support for it and you should be fine. Comparisons: Both the BenQ and Acer 27" monitors have VESA mounts. The BenQ also has speakers, the Acer does not - probably assuming anyone buying a 27" monitor will be fussy about sound and want their own speakers anyway, or willing to use their computer's speakers. I'm not fussy that way, and both monitors are good. The Acer was significantly easier to set up though.

I recently bought a second monitor for my husband because I really liked mine. The monitor is great and we love the blue light eye-care settings because we are on our computers all day. I also love the size. It's big enough to edit photos and great for splitting the screen when coding. However, what I really don't like is Best Buy's pricing. I saw the monitor on a HUGE sale here for $179 instead of $399 (talk about big savings!) but by the time I actually decided to go through with ordering it, the sale suddenly disappeared and the monitor was priced at $399!!! Luckily, I called Best Buy and did price matching (it was $179 on Amazon) and got it for the lower price (though the person on the phone kept saying "i have to get my manager, this is a huge price difference). But the next day I checked back and to my surprise the exact same monitor was on sale again - for $187 but with a regular price of $199. So what's the regular price of this monitor, $199 or $399??? that's a huge difference....

This monitor has been in use 24x7 for the last 5 months and it has performed well. Colours were a bit off when I first pulled it out of the box but after some simple adjustments it looks great. Don't expect to use the built-in speakers if you want to listen to anything other than the simple notification sounds from your computer as they are not good for anything else.
