Faithful Colours for Professional Creation
The foundation of this professional monitor is an IPS panel with 10-bit colour depth, which displays 1.07 billion colours. 99% coverage of sRGB and Rec.709 standards, along with factory calibration, ensures colour accuracy with a Delta E ≤ 3 deviation. In addition, Uniformity technology actively balances brightness and colour homogeneity across the entire screen, eliminating inconsistencies. For working with dynamic content, HDR10 format support is available. The reliability of the colour reproduction is confirmed by a series of Calman Verified and Pantone Validated certifications, which verify compliance with industry standards.
Efficient Workflows
The monitor offers features to increase productivity. An integrated KVM switch allows you to control two computers with one set of keyboard and mouse, with smooth switching using the Hotkey Puck G2 controller. PIP (Picture-in-Picture) and PBP (Picture-by-Picture) modes display content from multiple sources simultaneously. The DualView function, in turn, displays two different colour modes side-by-side, for example, sRGB and CAD/CAM, for easier comparison. Specialised modes like CAD/CAM for technical drawings, Darkroom Mode for post-production, or Animation Mode facilitate work in specific applications. The monitor is also optimised for Apple device users. A special BenQ M-book mode synchronises colours with the MacBook display and ICCsync technology automatically manages and synchronises colour profiles between the monitor and the computer.
Comfort and Eye Protection
The ergonomic stand contributes to comfort during long-term work. It allows for height adjustment over a 110mm range, pivot (90° rotation), tilt from -5° to 20°, and side-to-side swivel. The monitor is also compatible with VESA 100 × 100mm mounts. For eye protection, the monitor implements technologies certified by TUV Rheinland. Flicker-Free eliminates screen flicker and Low Blue Light filters harmful blue light, reducing eye fatigue. For basic sound, the monitor integrates 2× 2.5W speakers.
Extensive Connectivity Options
Extensive connectivity options are key for a flexible working environment. The dominant feature is the USB-C port with 65W power delivery, which supports DisplayPort Alt Mode for 4K video transfer, data transfer and simultaneously powers the connected laptop. Also available are DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0 ports and an extensive USB hub for connecting peripherals. The monitor offers the following connectivity options:
- 1× HDMI 2.0
- 1× DisplayPort 1.4
- 1× USB-C (with Power Delivery 65W and DisplayPort Alt Mode)
- 1× USB-C (downstream)
- 2× USB-B (upstream)
- 3× USB 3.2 (downstream)
- Headphone output

Colour Gamut
Indicates how accurately a monitor can display colours. sRGB is ideal for web, films or games. DCI-P3/Adobe RGB will be appreciated by graphic designers or professionals at work. The higher the value given, the better the monitor displays colours. Maximum Brightness
The value given in nits or cd/m² determines the brightness of the monitor. A brightness above 400 nits is key for HDR content and readability in sunlight, while standard office monitors are sufficient with values above 250. Refresh Rate and Response Time
Refresh rate (Hz) determines the number of frames displayed per second, so the higher the value, the smoother the image and the less eye fatigue. A lower response time value (ms) eliminates motion blur. 144Hz+ is ideal for gaming, while values around 75Hz are suitable for office monitors.Specifications
