Size

The diagonal is the number used to describe the size of the screen. The most popular sizes are 24 and 27 inch screens.
Response Time (GTG)

The time it takes for a pixel to change from one shade of gray to the next. A low response time provides faster response to our actions (input lag) and a cleaner image (less ghosting) which are important in gaming. Response times below 5ms are considered acceptable, but for gaming, monitors with 1ms are recommended.
Connection Type

DisplayPort

Modern way of digital transfer of image, sound and data, compatible with HDMI and DVI cables through an adapter.

HDMI

The type of connection used by popular gaming consoles such as Playstation 4/5, Xbox X/S, Nintendo Switch, etc. (Support for HDMI 2.1 is required for high fps and 4K resolutions.)

VGA (D-sub)

Older type of image transfer that lacks in quality compared to modern digital ones such as HDMI, display port, etc.
Refresh Rate

Refers to how many times the screen image is refreshed per second. Screens with a high refresh rate offer a competitive advantage as their image is clearer (less motion blur).

2. Typically, for office applications and simple gaming, 60-75Hz is common. In recent years, screens with 120, 144, and even 240Hz have emerged, mainly aimed at competitive gaming.
Type

The technology used by the screen to display the image.

IPS

IPS panel screens offer vivid colors, wide viewing angles (the image does not distort much when viewed from the side), and are energy efficient. Suitable for video and image editing.

I use it at home for graphic design and photo editing, while at work I have the Odyssey G5, both of them have been calibrated. Personally, I don't find significant differences for the use I make, Samsung is superior but not particularly.

I have it for several years. For its price, it is a good purchase. And the most important thing for a 27-inch is that it doesn't tire your eyes at all with Eye care.

The only negative thing is that it doesn't have sufficiently powerful sound to hear, for example, a conversation in a room with other noises. Also, it could have one of the 5 ports be USB, but it's OK. Quality construction, design, comfortable viewing after many hours.

This review is about the size: 23.8 "

I will explain immediately and briefly why you should avoid buying Benq in Greece:
I bought this specific product which had a defect. I immediately sent it to the service (CPI Service). They found it to be defective and justified the replacement. They sent me back a DIFFERENT MODEL with a tn panel. Initially, I purchased the gw2480, and they sent me the gl2480. Completely different models with different characteristics. They were trying to convince me that they sent a better monitor and I should accept it, etc.
It took a while with numerous phone calls, communication with the foreign Benq headquarters, and Conceptum, the company that imports Benq to Greece, in order for me to find a solution and get my money refunded.
This process took 1 month, during which I obviously didn't have a monitor.
Check which companies CPI Service supports and avoid buying from them. Unfortunately, if you fall into the need for this specific service company, the result of their assistance will be disappointing. This was also emphasized by Conceptum, where they pointed out that they have received many complaints and have repeatedly informed BenQ to change the service company.

Perfect for office work next to the laptop. You won't have a problem with space even in a small office. The smart brightness control didn't impress me.

This review is about the size: 23.8 "

Testing many screens mainly HP, Dell, I consider that Benq is the most comfortable I have looked at, especially compared to the Dell p2717h, se2416, e2420 it is much better, you let it make the settings automatically through the brightness intelligent and you don't bother. If you want to read texts, I suggest increasing the sharpness to 8, it will lose in smoothness but you will read more easily
