> 3 dayI would definitely recommend these monitors to people. I bought two for a dual display setup. I use it for both office work and for gaming. I connect to the monitors using display port and a laptop docking station. The stands are very sturdy and setup took less than five minutes. The displays are much easier on my eyes than my other ones. I bought these to hopefully help with my migraines (since I sit at the computer for 12+ hours a day). I haven’t had them long enough to see if they really help with the migraines but I will update if they don’t really help. The frames around the outside are thin so a dual screen setup looks good with these displays. The material feels nice and it’s made of sturdy material and not flimsy plastic. There is a little bit of brightness fade near the outside but it’s not bad at all and it’s hardly noticeable. The only way I’ve found to completely avoid that is with curved monitors. Overall, these monitors are a great bang for your buck.

> 3 dayI have been using two of these at the office for about 6 months now and they work great for me. I dont do graphics work so I cant comment on color accuracy, but for standard office work they are great. I would order these again if I had need. Note: Although the bezel around the edges is thin (maybe 1/16?), the actual usable area of the monitor is NOT all the way out to the edges of the plastic bezel. The usable screen area starts about 1/4 in from the outside edges (top & sides). Its not a big problem for me, but I didnt realize this when I ordered it.

> 3 dayNeeded to replace my dual monitor setup to support me working from home. After reading reviews, took a chance with the BenQ monitors. I have never heard of the brand but seemed like they were trending in the right direction. Wow, really happy with the decision. Crisp images with brilliant colors and an edge to edge display. Packing (five stars): Monitors were packed really well with no parts bouncing or sliding around in the box. Contents could survive a short fall. Setup (five stars): There is not a lot to the setup. Comes with instructions and stand. Easy to install, took less than five minutes. Keep in mind it comes with an HDMI cable. If you have a different interface, buy the cable. Picture Quality (five stars): I am not sure it was because I was previously using such an old monitor from before but the picture is bright, vivid, and crisp. Really love the small of bezel. I tried a couple of games and it seemed the monitor kept up with the frame rate demand with no stuttering/shifting. Overall, a great product and would recommend to my family and friends.

Greater than one weekTo start, you have to enable the automatic light adjustment before it actually will adjust itself. Since day one, the monitor adjusts perfectly in all lighting conditions from a pitch black room to the sun flooding the room with light. It does take a pinch to adjust to. At first it might seem like its too dim, but as you use it, youll notice its just right. Speakers... i mean if you have no other option, theyre there, cant get very loud at all but in a pinch would help you out. The best feature in my eyes quite literally is the lack of eye strain. I dont know exactly what causes it but I havent had it since I used this monitor. To give an example. On my old monitor, I could use it for even as little as one hour and suddenly would get this sensation like i just couldnt keep my eyes open. My eyes felt annoyingly sensitive to light and Id have to walk away or take a nap to let my eyes recuperate.

> 3 dayDay 1. I will update the review as testing going. As you can see I installed these two guys on the dual monitor mount ( WALI Premium Dual LCD Monitor Desk Mount) and they sit pretty well. I am using them with MacBook Pro 2016 as extended monitors with two separate HDMI adapters for each monitor (each adapter is like $13). Otherwise, you CANT do extended dual screens on mac OS UNLESS you use pretty expensive hubs like CalDigit TS3 Plus Thunderbolt 3 Dock ( I did pretty deep research on these things ). The brightness could be a little better but its fine for this price. The sensor on the bottom of the screen is a cool feature, pretty much the same as on all smartphones but with the ability to turn off/on/adjust the sensitivity, my kudo for this feature goes to BenQ. The picture in general pretty decent but not the perfect, again price. I got them for work and because I always promise myself to read all those articles Ive opened back in 2010. So now I can open all of them. So far the only problem I encounter is in my mount but not the screens. As you can notice in the last picture the gap between screens is hard to eliminate perfectly.

Greater than one weekI returned this monitor due to the size. The fault was mine because I didnt fully comprehend how large it would be. I had envisioned a monitor half again larger. From now on, for something like that, I will buy on site rather than through the internet.

> 3 dayI got these monitors for my home workstation so that I could work from home. Since we’ve had them my wife has confiscated them for her machine. She does a lot of spreadsheet and email work and for that they are great. Be aware that these are not height adjustable and the base isn’t exactly super sturdy or weighted in anyway. We are currently using them on the factory mounts but may be switching to a dual monitor mounting Bracket in the future. The lcd’s are clear from edge to edge with no blooming while working at night. The bezels are nice and thin so the footprint isnt to big. I don’t know about gaming with them as I have a dedicated tv I use for that. Overall for the price, these monitors are good.

> 3 dayI’m not tech savvy so I can’t say much. But the monitor has a good look to it. It’s very well balanced, so I’m not worried about it falling over. I’m very happy it has a display port input, it also vga, & hdmi inputs, but I’m using the display port. It has a good sound quality too, but I using speakers just because they’re louder. I got it because it’s supposed to be easier on your eyes, I can’t say much yet because I haven’t used it much - I’ll just have to see later. I’m not using it for gaming, only school work, but honestly I think the picture quality uploads good.

> 3 dayJust recently stopped working after 3 years, but before that was a good quality for the price. I like the cable management on the back and the bevel style.
