The monitor can work in portrait and landscape mode and has a multi-access stand that allows you to lift and lower the monitor and even tilt it up. Four buttons along the bottom control the various color settings and inputs. Picking the video input is as simple as pressing the first button and selecting HDMI-1, HDMI-2, DisplayPort, or USB-C.
Taking a picture of this monitor is a frustrating experience. A 1000:1 contrast ratio and full In-Plane Switching (IPS) makes this a bright and viewable monitor from multiple angles. To ensure proper lighting, BenQ includes an optional light hood to reduce glare on the already matte and non-reflective screen.
