Bigger Screen, More Space Means More Pixels, Better Detail

With a WQHD display, enjoy working with 77% more work space. Additionally, a WQHD provides 109 pixels per inch (PPI) allowing images to look more crisp than ever. Designed with CAD/CAM users in mind, the BL2710PT's Display Pilot Software provides a CAD/CAM mode that cares about the details. Whether it is handling a simple or complicated wireframe design, users will be able to better distinguish multiple line contours within their design. You will never miss a line again.

Advanced Hyper Viewing Angle (AHVA) Panel with Display Pilot Software

With the BenQ's advanced AHVA panel and 100% sRGB color gamut, every color is delivered with the finest precision in an ultra-wide 178-degree viewing angle. And the Display Pilot Software detects the monitor's physical rotation and will automatically rotate the image in either a landscape or portrait orientation. With just one click, the software will partition your active windows providing an enhanced desktop work space.

Technology for Comfortable Viewing

ZeroFlicker technology reduces discomfort of long work days by virtually eliminating eye fatigue. Traditional monitor screens flick 200 times per second. Though undetectable to the naked eye, viewing discomfort is experienced with these traditional monitors. The ZeroFlicker technology eliminates flickering at all brightness levels and effectively provides long lasting comfortable viewing. An additional Reading Mode emulates traditional paper brightness, contrast ratio, and sharpness allowing digital documents to easily look like you are reading a book. Plus, the BL2710PT features an Eye Protect Sensor which, based on the ambient light levels detected by the monitor, will automatically adjust its brightness throughout the day. This enhances the display's clarity and your viewing comfort. An optional "Smart Reminder" icon appears to remind users to take a break after a specific amount of time.

Slim bezel allows for a smoother image to be displayed across multiple monitors.

Smart Design Choices for Better Workspaces

The BL2710PT's slim bezel allows for a smoother image to be displayed across multiple monitors. And with extensive monitor adjustments like height, tilt, pivot, and swivel, you can tailor your own unique working station that is best suited for your height and viewing preferences. The BL2710PT also features an integrated hub with 2 USB 3.0 ports—you can download a 10GB file in just 5 minutes. Two additional USB 2.0 connectors allow for keyboard and other device connectivity.

Great all around monitor

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2014

Verified Purchase

Pros:
Excellent picture quality. Great for general use.
Minimal panel glow (AHVA panel).
No PWM = no LCD flickering.
Very light anti-glare coating. No fuzziness when viewing text.
Minimal back light bleeding. Light bleeding is very uniform.
Good variety of input connectors.
Very solid stand.

Cons:
2x 3.0 USB ports and 2x USB 2.0 ports. It's 2014. All USB ports should be 3.0.
Typical monitor speakers. Very low max volume. Very tinny.
Touch controls are very finicky. Tip of the finger sometimes do not register.
Auto brightness function is very gimmicky. Doesn't work too in my computing environment.
Typical cable management. There is a hole in the stand to funnel the cables and that's about it.
Color settings are OK out of the box for general use, but will need calibration for color accuracy.

Other than professionals that require color accuracy and gamers that require super fast refresh rate, this is a fantastic monitor. Watching movies, surfing the web, and playing most games is a joy on this monitor. Can't do any better for $500.

Worked Flawlessly with Mac Mini right out-of-the-box, ZERO setup

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

Worked flawlessly with a new Mac Mini right out-of-the-box, ZERO setup. Getting 2560 x 1440 resolution.

Naturally, the first thing I did was test this display using "Pixel Buddy". Found zero defects.

The BenQ BL2710PT came with a CD for setup and configuration with a Windows computer. Unnecessary when using Macintosh.

This display correctly responds to commands sent by the Mac OS. Most important to most users is sleep and wake up, which this display does correctly. I found that sound also goes through the Display Port cable. However, if you want to control the volume from your Mac, you need to connect the provided 3.5 mm audio cable.

You cannot adjust brightness using your Mac. I believe this can only be achieved using an Apple display. However the brightness is easy to set using buttons (well-placed) on the unit itself.

I have no idea why this display is referred to as a "Professional Creative Design Monitor" I suspect that's just marketing gobbledygook. We are using this display with iMovie HD and iDVD for movie editing purposes. It does this job flawlessly. This display is suitable for virtually any purpose as far as I can tell.

We connect this display to a Mac Mini using the cable below.

Very nice screen - buttons so so

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2014

Verified Purchase

I bought this monitor through Amazon about 2-3 weeks ago.

Pros:

The screen is beautiful and a lot easier on the eyes than the 27 inch iMac that sits next to it.

The stand is well built and goes together quickly and easily.

It comes with a boat load of cables most of which you are unlikely to need ( at least immediately ).

It comes with a 3 year warranty...nothing has gone wrong yet so no feedback on quality of service.

Cons ( minor )

The control buttons are soft touch buttons..They work fine, but they feel a little cheesy. It comes with a CD program called Pilot, Pilot allows you to control screen features without using the buttons.

There is a lozenge shaped display in the center bottom bezel..looks like a display of some kind? Appears to do nothing. From a distance looks like a place that a logo would be displayed..but is blank.

Conclusion:

Overall very nice, I would not hesitate to buy another.

Great monitor if you care about quality and features

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2014

Verified Purchase

I'd been using an Auria for a while (27", 1440p, "cheap korean panel") and was happy with it for the most part given the price. I wanted to upgrade to something that both had a better stand and smaller bezels as well as excelling image quality. This is exactly what i got. I was debating this with the cheaper Asus and more expensive Viewsonic; Alll 27" 1440p IPS/MVA. this falls inbetween price wise and IMO, is the best option. The asus suffers from backlight flicker and the viewsonic (based on reviews) required a bit of tweaking to get the color right. This is almost spot on out of the box. Just change the Gamma to 2 and you're set. I love the stand after coming from the Auria with had no adjustment at all. This goes up down, swivels and even rotates into portrait. There is a very light antiglare coating but is no where near what ive had on previous monitors. no graininess here.

Of the two i bought, one had slightly more backlight bleed in the lower right. Its not significant (seen way worse) and wasnt bad enough to warrant exchanging. Others online have reported similar bleed issues in the same spot. Thats probably my only negative, but again, its so minor to not even be noticeable unless you're specifically looking for it, on a dark background, in a dark room.

Buon monitor, con qualche ombra...

Reviewed in Italy on April 11, 2014

Verified Purchase

Il monitor è fisicamente solido con un design molto pulito. La risoluzione WQHD (2560x1440) lo rende veramente spettacolare e la definizione delle immagini è veramente superiore a qualsiasi altro monitor fullHD 23" o superiore.
I colori sono resi in modo veramente buono e la luminosità è più che adeguata con ampio spazio di calibrazione.
E' tuttavia possibile incontrare qualche problema a una più attenta analisi. In particolare il contrasto non è eccezionale e per migliorarlo è necessario passare in modalità utente, in questo modo però si perde una parte non indifferente di copertura cromatica (circa il 20%) rimanendo comunque ben sopra a quella che può fornire un TN. Altro fatto forse più fastidioso, ma più personale, è che a distanza di 50 giorni dall'acquisto sono comparsi dei pixel difettosi: un dead pixel e 2 stucked/hot pixel (pixel con luminosità superiore).
Il monitor, al netto di difetti di fabbrica, è ottimo sia per uso ufficio/cad che per uso gaming moderato (ha una bassa latenza ma non sufficientemente basso tempo di transizione per consigliarlo a giocatori fps "seri" ), mentre non è eccezionale per uso grafico professionale (d'altro canto i monitor professionali costano ben di più) ma si difende. Un buon monitor per ogni tipo di utilizzo a un prezzo onesto (i più economici asus PB278Q e Dell U2713HM soffrono di backlight bleed e/o latenze enormemente superiori).

Il prodotto è dunque ottimo per il prezzo a cui è proposto, spero di risolvere i problemi dei pixel difettosi avvalendomi della garanzia. A tal riguardo terrò aggiornata la mia opinione.

Aggiornamento 28/4: Amazon (grande!) mi ha comunicato che il prodotto gode della doppia garanzia in quanto acquistato da loro. Prima devo passare per quella di Benq e così ho fatto, dopo due giorni lavorativi sono stato contattato dall'azienda che gestisce l'RMA (nella mia stessa provincia tra l'altro) e mi hanno comunicato la presa in carico dell'RMA avendo verificato il difetto. Ora sono in attesa di aggiornamenti sulla riparazione.

Aggiornamento 22/5: Ritornato il monitor da RMA, pannello sostituito. Purtroppo continua a presentare difetti: una macchia bianca evidente in basso a destra e dead/stuck pixel nel centro. Mandata mail a Benq, sono leggermente infastidito...

Aggiornamento 23/5: Ho ricevuto risposta da Benq e sarebbero disponibili a nuovo RMA in via privilegiata (ordinamento preventivo del pannello) ma al contempo ho contattato amazon.it che mi ha offerto la possibilità di sostituire il prodotto. Tento con quest'ultima soluzione. Una cosa è da dire: di certo la comunicazione non manca e il supporto sia di Benq che Amazon è ottimo, peccato solo per il controllo qualità non elevato nella produzione dei pannelli.

Aggiornamento 27/5: ieri ho ricevuto il nuovo monitor sostitutivo. Nessun pixel morto o alone strano, purtroppo però dopo poche ore sono apparsi 3 stucked pixel. Tutti e 3 con il subpixel verde sempre acceso. In condizioni di uso normale sono quasi impercettibili, tuttavia su immagini scure o dai toni bluastri riescono a farsi notare. Aspetto qualche giorno per vedere se la situazione migliora e per valutare il da farsi.

Aggiornamento 18/6: ho effettuato il reso e mi sono stati riaccreditati i soldi spesi. Purtroppo non ho avuto molta fortuna con questo prodotto. Peccato...

I cannot say anything bad about the monitors

Reviewed in Canada on May 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

I cannot say anything bad about the monitors. I bought two of them, along with a dual monitor mount and they work flawlessly.

Beautiful color reproduction, narrow bezel and great price. I know some folks had trouble with the touch sensitive buttons, but I was mezmorized by how beautifully they work when i got the monitor. I have a darker office so with the black bezel you cannot see anything and as your hand approaches the buttons they all light up...nice!

In any case, once you have it setup, chances are you will not play with the buttons too much and you will appreciate that they are not always lit up.

Great Monitor

Reviewed in Canada on September 4, 2014

Verified Purchase

I purchased this monitor a few months ago and it has been great ever since. I use it daily with my desktop pc. I do a mix of gaming, browsing, video editing and this monitor has always performed great. I love the inclusion of the USB3 hub - great for plugging in flash drives rather than digging behind my tower. This was a great replacement for my Thunderbolt display (would not work with a Win machine) and with the price decreasing it is a no brainer.

Missing a cable for Mac high definition

Reviewed in Canada on October 19, 2014

Verified Purchase

Its almost perfect. I have a Mac and when hooked did not give me the high resolution expected. Because to get the high definition I had to purchase the Accell B143-003J UltraAV Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.2 Cable with Latch. It would be a 5 stars if supplied with the monitor. I had to spend some time to do the research for the cable needed.

very good monitor

Reviewed in Canada on November 30, 2014

Verified Purchase

maybe not the best monitor when compared side by side with high end monitors, but when it's the only one on your desk, it look very good to me, and the stand is the best i've had so far. i would prefer real push button over the touch sensitive one tough, they are a little bit hard to use. but once you are set up, you are not using them that much anyway.
