Customer Ratings & Reviews

I saw this and decided to get this for the quality and features. I have been using the Benq BL2711U 27" 4k, the predecessor to the PD2700U for a couple years. I tried to get another BL2700U but read that the PD2700U was its replacement. I will go ahead and get another PD2700U so I have a match. IMHO, you simply can't go wrong with this monitor. Excellent price point and professional specs. Great view, resolution, and colors. I should have gotten two matching long ago. My other monitor was a FHD 23" and the resolution difference was a pain whenever moving pages around from 4 UHD to FHD monitors. no more gyrations, :-) Great monitor and price.

Love this monitor for color correcting and it's also a great size.

Very bright! More than expected. Works great with my MacBook M1 Pro chip. The only thing is that for other ports besides hdmi you need an adapter. It’s not usb C but overall, great monitor. Colors are great and not too washed out, profiles are very well tuned from factory and even though there is no RGB profile, their hdr one is very similar to my xdr display on my MacBook, blacks are not as deep but that’s expected. For photography I found it very useful and I’m impressed with the color accuracy even though it’s not necessarily a photography monitor, very close. Benq makes amazing products, I’m very happy with this purchase.

I had gotten a Dell monitor for photo editing as it was highly reviewed, only to end up disappointed because a dead pixel developed in less than a days worth of use. Buyers remorse I ended up turning to BenQ as I heard many great things about the color accuracy and factory calibration out of box. I took it as a sign when my Dell monitor expired and went with this, wow is one of many things I have to say. There was a noticeable difference in picture quality after setting this up. I didn't think I would be able to tell a difference as the Dell I had prior seemed quite similar to an older monitor I'm using, even after setting it up with custom profiles I didn't get that "wow" I had hoped for when using the Dell monitor. Mind you this was one of their $500+ monitors for editing. Once I got the BenQ started up and set to my liking I could tell a striking difference in color from my older monitor to this, something that wasn't present with the Dell, even after all the fumbling I had to do. Color ( haha ) me impressed BenQ, you've opened my eyes to true quality. I immediately opened up Lightroom Classic and started peeping colors and fell in love. I think I'm going BenQ from now on. It's hard to express how impressive this thing is. I ran several tests to ensure nothing was wrong with the panel. It's all flawless it seems so far! The only thing left is the test of time.

This is hands down, the best 4K Monitor at this price. In fact, it's even better than some more expensive 4K monitors due to its features. I use it for video editing and it is sublime for its color accuracy and 4K resolution. It's in high demand, and I waited months to get it so make sure you buy it if you want it before it goes out of stock again!

Look, I have been working from home for 10+ years - you need a good screen. This is definitely the one for you. It is super high quality, and ergonomic with the adjustable hight. If you are on the fence, just buy it.

This monitor is a great size, easy to put together, and looks great. The issues I've had so far though - I have no idea what the buttons on the bottom do, and the directions to assemble it had no words, just pictures, so I had to call BenQ to figure out what cable to use. The display software is slowing down my computer that has 16gb of RAM as well so setup generally has just been a hassle. But maybe I'm just technically inept.

This monitor is a STEAL at this price. Great colors, TRUE HDR and the USB hub all make it worth every penny!

Works great for video editing. Adjustable stand is pretty sturdy. Built in speaker quality could be better, but I usually use the headphone jack anyway.

After much research, i came to purchase the PD2700U. It had good product ratings and recognition. Unfortunately, my first impressions right upon delivery have been disappointing and frustrating. Hence my poor rating score. Perhaps, I may upgrade the score at a later time after a few months of usage. But for now, here are my feedback: (1) However, upon unboxing the monitor, it was missing a key cable - Display Port - which is like the 1st or 2nd most important cable (after HDMI). It came with 3 other cables including HDMI but I really needed the Display Port since I have another display already using HDMI. So off to bad start. (2) Then came the actual monitor build itself. This is the main area of my disappointment and frustration. The lower bezel of the display is thickest at the bottom of the display compared to the slim bezel at the sides and top which is a nice design. However, the workmanship of the lower bezel is horrible! There is a very noticeable gap between the lower bezel and screen and it is already peeling off - right out of the box. I can't imagine how this will behave after a few months or a year! (3) Touching the lower bezel, you will hear a sticky kind of noise coming from the glue that was supposed to hold the bezel together with the screen. It's really tacky and very poor quality and I fear the bezel will give out with time and the gaps collecting dust and completely falling apart and peeling off. To me, this is extremely poor workmanship, quality and should not have passed QA. (4) Because I own another similar model (the exact model), i have a baseline for comparison. The other monitor does not have the bezel issues I described above. Hence, I feel the bezel issue i describe is an actual defect (5) The overall material and build of the monitor is average. It is very plastic feeling and feels very cheap and light. Compared to cheaper monitors at work and my previous personal monitors, this BenQ monitor feels much cheaper and inferior in build and quality,

Pros: Picture is GREAT. The color is fantastic. Even when viewing from slight angle. Cons: There is some moderate backlight bleeding. Mostly in the upper left corner. More than I would expect from $500 LCD. Also, the USB port shut off if the display sleeps. So, any devices charging by USB won't charge.

I need to use my monitor for work at home. I found this upgrade adequate

I love this monitor. I love the KVM switch feature. I don’t think you can get a better 4K display at this price.

Very good monitor for photo editing. That what I use it for. It’s easy on the eyes. It has auto dimming with the lighting around it. Very good monitor

Had to return to get a perfect copy. Best rendition of colors.

This BenQ - DesignVue PD series PD2700U 27" IPS LED 4K UHD Monitor (DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, HDMI) works as expected.

Purchased for the Series X, amazing quality and graphics. The built in speakers aren’t so great FYI but that ain’t an issue

Amazing color's for anyone who edits photo and videos.

I got this for my boyfriend for his birthday and he absolutely loves it!! Easy to use and hook up and has a gorgeous display!

This high resolution monitor can be mounted upward or sideways, and consumes low energy. It worths $500!
