Using the EW2790Q feels like a significant upgrade for the eyes, thanks to BenQ's Brightness Intelligence Plus (B.I.+) technology which automatically adjusts screen brightness and color temperature based on ambient light. The HDRi feature enhances dark details without overexposing bright areas, providing a cinematic feel to movies. The 100Hz refresh rate is a noticeable step up from standard 60Hz displays, making scrolling through long documents or navigating the OS feel significantly more responsive.
Compared to standard 27-inch 1080p monitors, the EW2790Q offers much sharper text and more detailed imagery. While gaming-specific monitors might offer 144Hz or higher, this model balances speed with superior color reproduction and eye-care features that dedicated gaming panels often lack. Unlike many budget 2K monitors that use 2W speakers, the 5W system here provides a much fuller soundstage, often eliminating the need for external desktop speakers.
