    i got mine but planing to send it back i think. it is now managerble with changing setting in the osd but defo the company with amazon lied in the description about the HDR since on my Windows10 in settings it had No HDR options button at all. tho my laptop dose have it for its own screen.

    thanks for the video its a good clear video i hope others see this vid as its really good and more companys need to be called out for crating fake descriptions and junk

    Have had mine since 2 years now, from ps4 pro to ps5, it’s still going strong. It does have low color compared to a IPS but remember this is a gaming Monitor, looks crisp and clear on any game. Also 60hz isn’t too bad especially on ps5 when it’s consistent compared to ps4 pro.

  4. Birdie P

    If you got a ps5 this is the one you want. I know 4 people who have this including me, and no one ever complains. The 4K is dope af!!!!

  5. Benito Camelas

    Is this a good monitor for pictures? I don’t care about games.

  6. Shubham Gorade

    😀I don't mind bezels if i'm getting good display. Bezel less shit is over rated. And those bezel less monitors/tvs are flimsy and fragile.

    I'm currently using 2 x Dell U2311H (I did have 3 of them, but the cap leaked on one and needs repairing). The bezel on this BenQ looks similar to the Dell – I can't see it being a problem, tbh. For the price, it's to be expected.

  8. GaminTrucker 101

    I buying this for console gaming, not professional photo editing or high refresh rate PC gaming.

  9. Volts 370

    I got it on discount for 150$ and 3 year user error warranty

  10. Parsa Motlagh

    they are not making a lot affect you are trying to suppress this model

  11. Parsa Motlagh

    for monitors need at least 300nits brighness for hdr. for tv need 600nits. so it not fake hdr its just cheap. stop lying

  13. Prasanth Sekar

    Does it have better refresh rate at 1080p ?
    Or is it capped at 60hz for all resolutions

  14. Ezy

    Assume the rival company paid you to absolutely rip this apart in a review?

  15. just_ nikicha

    Hey i have a question if I lower the resolution can I use more hertz ? Like 1080p 144hz ?

  16. Zuse
