This monitor is a great addition to my setup. It connects my Mac and work PC seamlessly. The resolution is excellent, and the colours are vibrant. The eye care feature is very comforting on eyes too. It’s more than sufficient for my home office productivity needs. However, if you’re a serious graphic designer, you might want to consider a higher-spec monitor from BenQ.

I love this monitor. I was initially after a 25" screen size - but have no regrets over having the 27". I choose the matt screen and find it excellent. I have several screens going for work and have no lighting issues with any placement.
The screen height adjustment is super easy and I often flick between standing and sitting, often taking orders or customer information on the phone and can manoeuvre the screen to different heights with an easy single handed operation.

Amazing how two of these screens can change your whole workspace I have one in a regular landscape orientation in the other one is rotated to be in a portrait mode. All I can say perfect.

I switched from AOC to this brand as I am fed up with dead pixels. This model offers zero dead/stuck pixel and great performance - Highly recommended.

This monitor has been a real game changer for me. I work in a very hybrid way and constantly switching between documents, emails, and photo/video work, and also the eye-care features make a noticeable difference. I don’t feel the usual eye fatigue, even after long days.

Setup was incredibly easy, and connecting it to my MacBook took just minutes. I also love how many ports it has: I was able to clear my workspace from extra cables and connect everything I need directly to the monitor, which makes the desk feel much cleaner and more organised.

The screen quality is excellent, and switching between my MacBook screen and the monitor feels natural and comfortable, without strain.

I'd read some great reviews about this monitor - all of which are true. Screen quality is super sharp and it was easy to plug into my new Macbook Pro without ANY fiddle-faffing or apps needed - it just worked! If you need an external monitor for your Apple laptop then look no further, this is the next best thing to Apple's studio display but without the hefty price tag. Yes the stand is a bit plasticky, but honestly it's sturdy and does the job well. Screen height adjusts up and down and tilts so the little you see of the stand really doesn't matter. This monitor came with a USB-C to USB-C cable and HDMI-HDMI cable. The USB-C connects...view more I'd read some great reviews about this monitor - all of which are true.

This monitor came with a USB-C to USB-C cable and HDMI-HDMI cable. The USB-C connects my Macbook to the monitor and also charges the Macbook. I have a couple of old Apple keyboards for my day to day needs but for some of my work I prefer my old Logitech combined keyboard/mousepad. However, I forgot that the new Macbook has no USB-A port to plug the Logitech dongle/wireless receiver so I inserted THAT into the BenQ monitor and it worked straight away to use the Macbook. This BenQ monitor is the best purchase I've made in a long time!
