Visual Performance and Fluidity
The IPS panel with 4K resolution displays sharp details on its large 31.5" screen. The 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms (GtG) response time deliver smooth motion when working with video, in animations, and while gaming. Support for AMD FreeSync Premium technology synchronises the monitor's refresh rate with the graphics card to reduce screen tearing. The Nano Matte screen surface effectively reduces ambient glare without losing colour accuracy. HDR10 support with VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification expands the dynamic range, displaying brighter whites and deeper blacks.
Professional Colours
The monitor covers 100% of the sRGB colour space and 95% of DCI-P3. Combined with 10-bit colour depth, it displays over one billion accurate colour shades. Each unit is factory-calibrated, confirming a Delta E < 2 colour deviation for faithful colour reproduction right out of the box. Calman Verified and Pantone Validated certifications further confirm its high colour fidelity for professional graphic work. BenQ Uniformity technology also maintains consistent brightness and colour across the entire screen, eliminating uneven backlighting.
Ergonomics and Practical Features
The monitor stand has a wide range of positioning options to find the optimal working position. The height can be smoothly adjusted within a 150mm range, the screen can be tilted from -5° to 20°, or swivelled 30° to the side. The pivot function allows the monitor to be rotated 90° to a vertical orientation, which makes working with long documents or coding easier. The Auto Pivot function automatically rotates the image itself. The monitor has a 100 × 100mm VESA mount for mounting on a wall or custom arm. It also includes two built-in 3W speakers. The integrated KVM switch allows you to control two connected computers with a single set of keyboard and mouse. Switching between devices is easily done via the OSD menu or the Hotkey Puck G3 controller.

Colour Coverage (Gamut)
Determines how accurately the monitor can display colours. sRGB is ideal for the web, films, or games. DCI-P3/Adobe RGB is appreciated by graphic designers or professionals. The higher the value, the better the monitor displays colours. Maximum Brightness
The value, given in nits or cd/m², determines the brightness level of the monitor. Brightness above 400 nits is key for HDR content and readability in sunlight, while standard office monitors are sufficient with values above 250. Refresh Rate and Response Time
Refresh rate (Hz) determines the number of frames displayed per second, so the higher the value, the smoother the image and the less eye strain. A lower response time (ms) eliminates motion blur. 144Hz+ is ideal for gaming, while values around 75Hz are suitable for office monitors.Specifications
