Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert
  • Thanks to the IPS panel, you experience true-to-life colors from all angles.
  • 4K has 4 times more pixels than Full HD, which ensures sharp images.
  • HDR allows you to experience a wider color representation and higher contrasts.
  • This monitor isn't height-adjustable.
  • Due to the moderate refresh rate and response time, this monitor isn't suitable for advanced gamers.

Description

You can watch your favorite movies and series in 4K resolution with the BenQ EW2780U. This large screen has a 68-centimeter diameter. That way, you can watch movies from the couch, provided that it's not too far removed from the screen. The IPS panel allows you to experience true-to-life colors from all angles. Are you seated close to the screen, for example at your desk? The image remains razor-sharp thanks to 3840x2160 pixels. You can easily connect the laptop via the USB-C connector. Thanks to DisplayHDR 400 and 10-bit color depth, the screen has a high brightness and good color representation. The EW2780U has a striking design and a thin frame. As such, it doesn't look out of place in your living room. Do you occasionally play games on your Xbox One? You can use FreeSync to reduce image stutter.

Beautiful screen, but could have been better finished

  • Beautiful colors, also with emulated HDR

  • Great menu, not inferior to other screens
  • Not adjustable in height, that's really knudde. Had to buy another foot

I already had a 4K screen without HDR (LG 27UD59P-B), but I experience a world of difference. The colors splash off the screen with this one, both with PS5 (HDR) and laptop (emulated HDR). The difference with my old monitor is of course greatest on the PC, but I also see a lot of difference on the PS5. The screen is clear, easy to operate (same ease of use as the previous one, but joystick in a slightly more convenient place with this one). The design of the Benq could have been much better. Of course, a height-adjustable foot is missing, but the color brown is also a bit of a vague choice as far as I'm concerned. Furthermore, the bezels are very thin except at the bottom, but I now have a black bar on 3 sides of my screen. I haven't been able to find out if that is adjustable yet. The image is slightly less clear on both sides than in the middle.

Good 27" monitor with nice color reproduction

  • image quality
  • small edges
  • easy to install

Bought for graphic work, colors are realistic. The controls are a bit of a puzzle, but once you figure it out, it's a great 4K screen

Very good monitor, limited extras.

  • Good controls
  • Auto input detection
  • Only HDMI included

Excellent screen, image quality is very good, color reproduction is fine for me. Furthermore, many options in the menus to optimize it for your use. Very nice that auto input detection has. (never thought that this is apparently not standard on a monitor) Price is fine for display, although it does come with limited number of cables.

For me, the supplied base doesn't matter, because the monitor sits on an arm, but with the supplied base you can only tilt, no height adjustment, etc.

In addition, the monitor is quite thick, and the back is curved, which gave me problems that my webcam can no longer be really stable on the monitor.
