I was a little nervous about this VA panel, since I was used to IPS, but I didn't need to worry. I found that the colors were quite good out of the box even without calibration, and that viewing angles were wide enough that I could forget about them during use.

An excellent all-round monitor that offers a huge 32-inch screen, a high 2560 x 1440 resolution and an affordable price tag.

BenQ well known for their professional gaming monitors, but not all of us are serious gamers and want something that offers superior multitasking and media consumption, but also can play casual games without a hitch.

Great Picture quality; The 10-bit VA panel produces some great colors; 32-inch screen size perfect for 4K resolution as don't need much scaling; HDR capability; Compatible with 4K consols; Priced competitively

The design could have been better; The monitor stand doesn't provide much adjustment
