TOP FAVORABLE REVIEW
Great 144Hz Monitor!

- Priced Affordably, for its size and specs(Bought on Sale $120 off.)
- Great Picture Quality
- Adjustability is great
- S Switch a great alternative to reaching towards your monitor and pressing buttons on it.

- While the picture is great, it comes out of the box with 3 different profiles which are all the same. It takes some time to play with the settings and see what options you have. Could do a better job presenting what the montior has to offer.
- Has 3D vision. This is a personal issue, as I feel the monitor would be even more cost efficient without this underused feature of many monitors.
- TN panel. This is to be expected though for the response time and everything. I will note however that this screen does not suffer too badly from angles as I have seen on some TN panels.

If you can buy this bad boy on sale, I say go for it. Its my first experience with BenQ but have heard nothing but good things. It's opened up a new world to me in FPS like Counterstrike and Overwatch.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Horrible backlight bleed, dull colors

Monitor comes with s switch

-There is a lot of bleed from the edges of the monitor.
- Colors are very dull, no amount of adjusting will help.
- monitor is shaky on its stand

I had an RL series 1080p monitor with 60hz refresh, and the colors were bright and sharp. With this established brand loyalty, I decided to get the higher refresh rate, that was mistake. Skip this and get a high end 1440p 144hz and don't waste your money.
