Wanted to leave a small note of thanks for this review and recommendation. This display in 2021 is worth every penny! Just got it and its spectacular. As a reference monitor I have a second BenQ SW270C which is a newer model, but this is right up there. Out of the box the colours are brilliant and both match to perfection in srgb. Top notch. Thankyou!
Thanks for the comment! :)

Mate I really enjoyed your review, you have a way of explaining things that really meets my way of understanding. You have a new subscriber, congrats🤗
This video just came up in my recommended 3 months after buying the 27" version. I'm just a hobby photographer, no professional, and i can confirm this monitor is fantastic. Lifting it out of the huge box it felt quality, the weight. And the colours are amazing, beautiful. The first image i opened from my lightroom catalogue blew me away, pin sharp. The one thing i found hard getting used to was the monitor software Display Pilot. Lots of options to customise settings to your preference but i found the factory presets perfect. Matched with a 10bit card you can't go wrong.
👍
Love your videos! You do a fabulous job at explaining the “Why” and not just the “What”. I think you make some of the best videos that I have seen on making sense of technology and choices. Just getting started on UA-cam and think you have been so valuable to me. Hope that you continue to blow up on your channel!
Just found your channel looking for editing pc builds and you have a recommendation for a monitor too? I really hope you grow big considering your good advice. Thank you so much. Keep up the grind!
Thanks SuperJellyJ, I appreciate you took the time to write this comment :)
Your review was so good, I was convinced that this is the answer to color correction with minimal error! Benq should pay you! Again, thank you for your amazing content!
Thanks for the review, I had one delivered wednesday this week I love it
What a relief to see that you recommend the BenQ PD2700u monitor--I ordered it last week. I guess I made a good choice. Thanks for confirming it.🙂
😉That's crazy! Good choice, we'll done!
This is great, thanks for the in-depth review! Having an even lower budget options would be fantastic. Especially one that I can shift into a different purpose down the line if I upgraded to one of the really good ones for coloring. For instance, a low budget one now that I can move into the GUI or scopes in the future. Just thinking about the size and specs that would fit that situation ideally. Anyway, thanks again!
100% subscribed, your videos are so full of great information! Good work you gained a new subscriber today!
Thank you my friend! Glad you've found useful info from my videos!
Dude you make your videos so easy to understand. Thank you.
Third time that I´m reviewing this vid Bro en about 3 weeks. I´m convinced now. Thank you for this very valuable advice!!
Glad it was helpful!
how can someone has such a good relaxing calmed voice and give me everything what i want to know on POINT. really good video bruh, thanks a lot !!
Wow, this is an excellent review. The depth you covered in this video is exceptional and really helpful.
Thank you so much
👍😇
The best review I have seen yet. Sold me and I am so tired of looking for monitors. I almost decided to get another 1080p TV but my desk is too small. I bought an LG 34" 1080p that sucked for graphic design. I too am getting the 27".. thanks.
👍
Thanks for your review!
😉
Thanks for this. This video answers my post for a monitor recommendation.
Amazing video! My wife and I have been trying to find a good photo editing monitor and you sold us for sure!
😉
Really great review. Thanks
Mate, i stumbled on your channel a few minutes ago, Im not even interested in getting a monitor. Just watching all your videos coz you deserve the extra views. Keep up the great work. Stay humble. Cant wait for you to become the next Linus :D
Hahaha, so great to have you here! 😊
Sold! impulse ordered at 2 am! Great review, thanks for this! I Could maybe have used more time researching my self, but just take you're word for it. Hope it lives up to the expectations and i'm very exited now ! : D
Any update?
pretty damn satisfied! it's kinda so good you just forget about it cause there is just nothing to complain about
I would like that even cheaper monitor. I’m a beginner so I want to start small. Thank you for creating this video
Excellent review. Like your style 👍
Nice review. What would be your budget suggestion for something similar but with Usb Type C port as well.
Great review cheers mate =)
Thanks! 😊
Thanks for the informative video. Very well made.
You're welcome!
Nice detailed review ! 👍 Subscribed u bro
You sold me on “...much better editing experience “ 🙌
That was the biggest surprise to me how much different the editing experience is.
This review has really sold me on adding one of these to my setup for more accurate color. What stand are you using for your monitors, or what multi-monitor mounts would you recommend?
My 3 monitor stand is not the best, just got one of the cheapest ones of amazon, I could definitely do with a better one. 😊
We really need a 2023 version of this video
Great analysis on the monitor. I have this monitor and I absolutely love It. I was thinking of getting a monitor arm to hook it up with another monitor. My question is(two parts 🙏🏾). 1. What other monitor would you recommend (I’m looking for a 24”) to use as a viewing monitor for PP. 2. What monitor are you using for your BenQ? Thank you so much.
Thanks for this. Have been thinking about getting a monitor for a while now. Interesting in Australia that the 32 inch model is A$1,299 and the 27 inch model is A$849. That's a more significant price difference than what is happening in the US, unless that has changed since May.
dang!!! too much information. I love it.. THANK YOU :)
👍😇
Your the Fn man, man! See this is why youtube rules. You do all the work and help me navigate how to shop from too many choices and specs. kudos bruh... Yes I liked and subscribed.
Glad to help
thanks for this info!
No problem!
kiran, Very informative and detail review. Sold me on 32 inch.
Thanks mate, you are the best
You're welcome Samer!
This review helped me make a decision tonight. I’m a photographer that’s looking to step up to a color accurate monitor, I was hesitant about the flickering issue. But looking more into it that was on earlier models and the 2020+ models have the updated firmware that’s fixed the issue. I was torn between this or a Eizo ColorEdge CS2731. Hopefully I made the right decision.
How is it ? Good choice ? I need one to buy too. Looking forward to know your experience.
great review man
Thanks!
great review! don´t you think the hdr10 support in the PD2700u adds more value? I´m trying to find out if getting this monitor, the 27 inch version or going for the HP Z32. What do you think?
your enthusiasm clouds your judgement
Been searching for some time and this monitor is perfect. Running a 32" 1440p Lenovo atm. I like it, but would like something more accurate for photo and video editing. Thanks for this review!
I'm using a HP envy 27s and it's perfect :)
👍
Thanks for the review, I have a question about how adobe RGB is accurate? I'm gonna use it for video work but it is also to know how accurate in adobe RGB as I do digital painting.
Thanks for the great review and I am happy to see a nice video about Bulgaria inside.
I have one question please. I am doing photo editing and I am using one 24" monitor. I am comfortable with one monitor and I think of buying one 32" Benq PD3200U, so the question is, do I need two 27" monitors instead? I have free place for two 27" monitors or one 32". I am too very close to the monitor on 60 cm distance.
incredible review bro, i loved it.. I have a quick question does it support PIP? how many displays does it support?
thank you for this contents.
I’ve had 2 of these now, sent back the 1st one and both have been making a clicking noise. Have any ideas as to what is causing it? Definitely don’t wanna send back the 2nd one....
hello! great video
i was wondering what was the difference between this one and the qhd one? it's significantly cheaper
The QHD is 1440p not 4k and doesn't have as good of an IO. :)
Great video! Currently in Australia the HP Z32 is $100aud cheaper than the BenQ PD3200U.
Thank for the video. I needed it!
Which color profile/picture mode (?) do you use for video editing?
I use srgb for editing.
hi, what monitor do you recommend, i need up to 25 inches, fhd 1080, 16: 9, for editing and color in premier pro?
Thanks a lot for such a detailed review I think PD2700u is the one I will go with....but since u mentioned in the last, can u make a video for a monitor which is something good like PD2700u for editors but can give u a decent experience while playing games like FIFIA or COD occasionally like once in a month when friends come over. Does such a monitor exist??
Very nice video. I saw the Bulgarian flag and the horo dance... ;)
I've just purchased one whilst watching your video on Amazon.. you should be a salesperson! 😂😂🙈
Only happy I could help! :)
Hey great video. I'm curious what the little flame thing on your desk is?
How would you compare this to the pd3200q? Is a better contrast ratio better or the 4K for photo and video editing? I’m having a hard time deciding.
Your reviews stand out with others I have watched for thoroughness. I do the same thing for HiFi and know how much work is involved in putting reviews together. So congratulations. 👏
I wondered if you might help me get the gear I need. Happy to pay you. I wondered basically if this monitor is still good. I use a rubbish Samsung tv monitor about ten years old. I use after effects / vegas (soon to change to premier pro) but I also need some help in choosing a new PC. I perceive big diminishing returns once you go past a certain point. Im using a ten year old i7 quad core with a really bad graphics card which is struggling.
THANK YOU, very much for your monitor review. I have to say that by you using 3 monitors for video editing, then it is not fair to say that it is a pro monitor when you combine it with others. A longer curved monitor would be much better than the 3 you have. Because at the end of the day, the price of all your 3 monitors has to count.
Hi, great video! QUESTION? (it may be a newbe question) so...would it still be necessary to still calibrate with an X-rite or spyder pro ect...? Or is it good out the box? thanks!!
You have almost hit 11k already. Go on lazatron
Thanks Josh ;)
If you don't need 4k go for the BenQ PD2700Q (IPS Panel) or PD3200Q (VA Panel). Great monitors for the price and easier on older eyes.
You lose the 4k and KVM, SD card reader oh and the USB ports are 2.0. But they are a bargain on new ( if you can find them ) market let alone used.
I have 2 on my main rig and one at the studio. Also bought one for a friend who's DELL monitor had developed a fault.
What's the difference between sw 271? Another technical query is
100% sRGB/99% Adobe RGB/93% P3 vs
100% sRGB, Rec.709
Another great video... Love your best bank for buck video editing PC and now with this video, my guide for 4k editing pc build is complete...
At the same time, needs one info... I heard a lot of flickering issues with this particular model. Do you face any such issues?
Johnson Guite been trying to figure out if they fixed this issue or not. Not trying to spend money on something thats gonna give issues.
@@ceazy1861 thanks for the reply... In most of the reviews, i found comments mentioning the flickering issue...
The monitor is great looking all the reviews in terms of color, quality, ease of use etc... But the flickering issue is holding me back from buying it... Love the monitor, but if the flickering issue is not resolved, would go for LG 32UD89-W.... Do let me know which one you advise.. thanks in advance..
Hey mate,
Can you describe the flickering issue coz do far I have not come across such thing. 🤔
@@theTechNotice planning to buy and after checking, saw the comments in youtube..
So cannot describe it... but some says they do not face the problem.. Hope the one you buy does not have the problem...
I'm on the fence btw the pd 2700U, which is be the smaller version of the one you're reviewing, and the LG 27UL850. They're in the same price bracket and have very similar specs. The second one has usb c which is a big +. Have you ever compared them?
Great video. Few questions if I may. I’m using this monitor with the Mac Mini M1 with HDMI port and I have no functionality with the extra USB / headphone ports or SD Card reader. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?
I was looking for a video like this. Btw, do you recommend it to music producers?
I think it will do a great job. Just think as a music producer you don't really need the colours to be accurate right?
@@theTechNotice Lol, u r right. I'm just looking for something good quality! thanks again!
Yeah, if I were you would spend the money on something that matters like good audio interface, headphones or smth...
You probably want just a big monitor with 4k quality, and just pick the one which design you like the most 🍎🤔🍏
Excellent review, I am not ready to update my monitor just yet... Would you recommend calibrating it using the Spider x pro that you used on another video?
Yeah, that's a good option.
Awesome review !! I been so skeptical of the benq pd2700 because it’s released on 2016 but I saw couple good review . So my dilemma is if this benq pd2700u still worth it for graphic designer and content creator? As I too worry the stock has been sitting in the wares house for so many years. Please advise if still a good choice? If so I am ready to check out the cart. Thanks
Hi i Hawe Dell 2718Q how you think is it ok for video editing or you recomendet to change in Benq. Thank you for your answer
Hi great review, left you a message ref specs for your Mac pc beater set up and do you think this will be compatible with that set up? Think will get 27 inch monitor. Great work, your knowledge does you justice!
Great video! 👏👏 Well organised, presented and explained. I've ordered one and you've got a new subscriber! 😀 Also, out of interest, where's you accent from? It reminds me of Ole Gunnar Solskjær's. Norwegian with a hint of northern England. Keep up the good work. 👌
Hahaha, you're not the first to compare me to Ole! The combo is 🇪🇪 + 🇬🇧 ;)
@@theTechNotice Brilliant video dude I was just about to post the same comment about Ole but someone beat me to it!
Would be interested to hear about your workflow with the 3 monitors. I have found in the past that I prefer multiple monitors over one large one for programming, I've only just got into video editing so would love to hear your thoughts.
Great idea, I'll write that video idea down! :)
BEST 4K MONITOR PERIOD ...... WANT USB C PAY DOUBLE FOR BASICALLY THE SAME PANEL...GREAT REVIEW
What would you recommend for a 3D animator as well as a gamer?
I make my decision too. Thanx a lot bro!
👍
Thank you, been struggling with this for a good year. I do not care if it is a 2019 version. Makes no difference.
Moonpie
What do you think about a lg 34inch 3440-1440 monitor vs this for editing, how much clarity is enough clarity , will that be a better option because it gives you a wider workspace?
I'm about to buy the BenQ but I wanna know how's the local dimming light and backlight?
I also love to fly in simulator (I'm not a gamer),
Is it good enough?
Thanks!
Many thanks for your videos, very helpful. I just bought the 2k BenQ PD3200Q monitor. I am editing videos (drone videos) and picutres (mostly 360 panoramas and virtual tours) as a hobby and wondering if I would also need the 4k version? Your adivse would be very much appreciated. Many thanks
Good video. Thanks.
😇 thanks for the comment!
what's the glowing fire thingy on your desk??
What do you think of the Asus ProArt line of 24-27" monitors for $200-300?
Great channel
😉
Whats your opinion on the Viewsonic VP2785-4k with USB type c or the Viewsonic VP3268-4K?? I Know there more expensive but as monitors alone which would you say is the best for photo and video editing?
great review and I am currently in the market for a monitor but I don't only just do video editing I also would like a faster refresh like at least 144 hz. Any recommendations that still don't shoot me up to 1500 dollars and does not compromise on the color
I love the features especially being able to work across 2 computers with the same peripherals. Is it ok to switch between a Mac and PC with this setup? Also is there any concern with the 27” model being an LCD? Amazon lists it as such. Not sure if that’s accurate. Great video!
If it's a PD2700U model then it should be IPS and it's amazon's bug. :)
Hello TechNotice 👋
Still using Banq PD3200U? Or you would suggest something better than this one?
seriously, you need more appreciation for your solid videos. God's luck , keep producing more amazing contents.
Thank you so much 😊
Hi, nice informative video! What do you think about the Dell S2721QS? None of the Benqs are available at my country :(
Nice cranium accessory!
Came from an HP z27 and the extra 5 inches is fantastic (she said haha)
Is it really important to have a 4k panel for photo editing with a DSLR camera
Im new to video editing. Getting already purchase the m1 mini mac 16gig ram- Do you think this model here BenQ EW3280U can also be a good buy ? Please reply. Thank you. Thanks for your video review.
Does this monitor need to calibrate using a calibration device such as Spyder X Pro..etc to give you the exact colors you will get when you print your photos on paper?
do you think the 27" is still also a good buy? Knowing the difference are the ports and 32" having a DCI-P3 and puck ,Thanks!
Yes, I do. If I'd buy one again, I'd buy the 27' :)
@@theTechNotice Interesting. I am caught between the 27 and 32. Bit of a dilemma. 32 great but ppi too large and you have to sit so far away that scaling necessary. 27 too small for 4k, needs scaling! I think QHD is actually the best middle ground. Beginning to think 4k is a waste of time. Let alone 8K! It all feels like a - dare I say it - conspiracy to buy consumer goods that you don't actually need/offer any further utility. 2k is the sweet spot - bang for buck as it were. Sorry for rambling post.
Hi Did you look at ThinkVision P32u-10 32 UHD ? I wonder what your are your thoughts.
did every steps learned and understood curves. But my colors still not accurate. But I was told I must be grading on a not calibrated Mac computer.how true is this. Now am about buying a Benq monitor will this help ?
1:34 your posture worries me... Consider lifting up the display so its at eye level
