Type of review

I got my first of these (GL2580H) in January 2018 and recently bought a second one for a dual monitor gaming/PC rig. I absolutely love it. ZERO complaints about both monitors. The thin bezel is beautiful. Automatically switches to any active input (Xbox/PC; HDMI/DVI-D in my case). If both are not active, the monitor goes completely black to save pixels. Excellent image customization options like color, sharpness, tint, brightness, video mode, surfing mode, low blue light mode, etc. It has…

combined with a great price for a monitor of this size

I bought this monitor to use with my new 13" MacBook Pro laptop - it comes in very handy when I need a bigger screen or when I'm working on projects for my graduate program. I have standard 24" Dell dual monitors at work, so I'm fairly familiar with the size, and I'm intrigued by this monitor's eye-care technology - anti-flicker and low blue light combined with a great Price for a monitor this size. I should also note that since I work on the computer for most of the day, I also usually wear…

A solid bang for your buck.

I was using a 24 inch Dell monitor that a friend gave me and I was curious to delve a little into the world of monitors as I game quite a bit on my PC. It was an immediately noticeable upgrade. Image quality and tearing in my games has completely disappeared without the need to enable V-Sync. Low blue light modes are a great added bonus for active night users and there are 4 different levels which is great. There would be a spectrum of image quality, from my old Dell LCD monitor to the retina…

Audio not working with HDMI on Late 2018 Mac Mini

Image quality is good overall, although ghosting occurs when scrolling through webpages. I hooked this up to a late 2018 MacMini. I was hoping that at least system sounds would be transmitted through the HDMI cable, but it just doesn't work (tried 3 different cables, followed Apple support instructions, etc.) and that's why it stinks. I know the speakers aren't top notch, but that was one of the reasons I bought this monitor. I don't need/want premium audio. The graphics in my box are…

The color is good. I like minimal frames

Decent monitor for the money. The color is good. I like the minimal frame. The stand is strong. I LOVE the cable management system built into the stand. The size is perfect for my set. The only reason this isn't 5 stars is because the text isn't clear. Maybe it's the HDMI adapter I'm using from my MBP 13" but the text isn't great. Don't get me wrong - I'm still able to read everything well and am very productive with this new monitor, but the text just doesn't look great on this monitor for…

Very impressed with the best in my rating

This was my first real monitor purchase and I didn't want to pay too much for something expensive. I was a little skeptical as I wasn't familiar with the brand, but overall I'm very impressed. I have two rigs side by side and they are perfect for this, no small bits of bottom edge sticking out like others I've looked at so they fit perfectly. The border around the image is also very minimal. I'm planning on getting a VESA mount but was surprised at how solid the bases are and overall they seem…

Great offer! good for me

I know this model is obsolete but I can't find a replacement for my Samsung so this was the best bang for the buck I could find. It was impossible to come by during the holiday offer. I use this with a borderless mouse for a work laptop and home gaming pc and it has all the features I need. Since I don't use the built-in speakers, I can't confirm that. A power cable and an HDMI cable were included in the box. The stand cover has its own opinion, but I assume all BenQ monitors do, so I'm not…

  • There are downsides

I had 3 months before I wrote a review. No problem. It has a 60Hz refresh rate. This makes it great for console gaming, and the 1ms response time is a nice touch too. The monitor is foolproof with 4 buttons in the bottom right corner. To adjust the monitor settings, press any of these 4 buttons and a display will appear in the lower right corner of the screen telling you which buttons to press to get where you want to go to the monitor settings display, which is also appears in the lower right…

Cost efficient! long game! Great for games!

This product is probably the best choice for any low-level gamer or even a console gamer who has a PS4 or Xbox 1. The monitor arrived in perfect condition with no problems whatsoever. The box contained a power cord, an HDMI cable, and the monitor itself. The monitor also has many different internal and external features that greatly enhance the user experience. The monitor has a built in cable manager which works very well and hides the cables very well. The monitor also has built-in picture…

Bought this for my husband who wanted a gaming monitor. He likes it very much. However, there were a few noticeable scratches on the screen. For a new monitor, that was a bummer. I would like a new one with a clean screen!

Could be better in my opinion

Color and quality are inferior to MacBook Pro 2017. Adjusted the color and tried to get clearer text. The size is good and allows you to edit documents side by side. Clarity is not compared to Mac products.

Excellent monitor; good price

The monitor has become impressively stylish, I really liked the bezels and the coating on the bottom. The monitor worked great and was very easy to set up/connect to my computer. I would definitely recommend this monitor if you are looking for something simple and cheap. The monitor's speakers sound good and the picture quality is fantastic considering it's only 60Hz.

Almost completely stupid.

The monitor is great for gaming, very smooth scenes, but the contrast is too high and there is no sound. You can invest in some speakers when you buy them.

Product information is NOT correct!

The display looks good, but the graphic shows a big, screaming ""Features of the built-in speakers!" Sorry, I made a mistake, there are NO speakers at all. It is possible that other models have speakers, but this model does not. Beware! The information shown is incorrect.

Very good screen. Easy to install and no problems with it. For me it serves as a second monitor, so I don't play on it or anything. Colors are good, brightness too. Would buy again.

Just don't expect the speakers to work!

I think this is a great budget gaming monitor and I like some of the features BenQ has to offer like the low blue light settings. But the main feature of this product - the speakers - just do not work and do not work. from the day it arrives! I can't seem to find any helpful guides that I can find online, from BenQ or anyone else, to fix this issue. Other people have experienced this, but most of them advise you to just accept the fact that you are not getting any sound from this monitor and…

Dead pixels/faded colors

The picture looks good but the dark colors are washed out and there were [2] dead pixels in one week. It's not worth coming back, so I have to live with it.
