Simple and effective
Used as a connected TV, it's a very good quality screen. The only downside, which isn't really a downside, is that it requires a sound bar, as it has no native audio output.

A good monitor to feel the stick
Used with a Mac Mini, consoles (Xbox X Series and PS4) the graphics rendering is good. It is 4K, HDR, VFR compatible and can (according to my Xbox) run at 120Hz. Designed for gaming, this screen also offers a cinema mode that is automatically activated when watching Disney+.
The only big flaw of this screen is the sound which is really weak to be polite. It's not easy to enjoy a film or listen to YouTube. The sound is a bit too flat and tasteless.Review automatically translated -

Good value for money
Nice product, works perfectly. The HDR doesn't do much and the on/off button is oddly located in relation to the HDR button, but that's not important.

Excellent r Q/P
Great images, beautiful colours after custom settings, may not be suitable for the most demanding or for professional video/photo editing use... But the quality is still excellent. Hard to find better 249?

Good screen to introduce 4K
This screen is a good value for money, if you have a small budget it is very good, (bought at 250 €).
If you are looking for a screen with quality HDR, you need to go to another screen because this one is clearly not made for that.
The first time I test 4K and it's impossible for me to go back to 1080p.
The colours are acceptable (normal for a TN panel) and it is perfect for gaming as it is very responsive.Review automatically translated -

Very good screen for the price
This BenQ screen is very well made for the price. The assembly is easy. The buttons look a bit cheap but that's not a big deal if you only touch them very rarely. I got this screen for my PS4 Pro and in anticipation of the PS5, and everything works fine with a 3840 x 2160 display.
HDR isn't really a plus but I would recommend this screen.Review automatically translated -

70 cm screen (diagonal)
It's too wide a screen if you're 30cm away from the screen typing on your keyboard (60 is enough compared to standing back). So finally, it's only plugged into a PS4 PRO with a headset (with adjustable volume) plugged into the console controller. If you step back far enough, it's perfect

Intermittent black screens
Since receiving it, I have had intermittent black screens. I have changed the graphics card to an RTX 2060, changed the USB cable, switched to Display port, still the same thing. I'm thinking of returning the screen to SAV.
