Review on BenQ EW3270U 31.5-Inch Monitor with FreeSync – 3840X2160P, USB Hub, High Dynamic Range, Blue Light Filter, Flicker-Free by Jeremy Berry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sharp and easy to read

This monitor is everything I was hoping for: easy to use and clear enough to read fine print. I use it as an external monitor on a Dell G5 laptop with an Nvidia 1060 chipset. The display is super sharp; I regularly use large Excel spreadsheets and can zoom up to 70% and still read cells (Calibri 11pt). I wear "computer" glasses set to 1 inch behind my fingertips with all blue blocking etc. The only complaint I have is that with HDR enabled (Windows 10 recognizes its HDR display) when the system goes to sleep, then when I wake it up, the brightness goes out. I haven't found any settings to fix this, but turning the monitor on and off solves the problem, so I'm assuming it's the monitor. Also, I have an app that was almost impossible to use with HDR enabled. All the colors/brightness seemed to have been reduced to the point where you could barely distinguish the text from the background. Selecting just one of the high contrast color schemes did the application is hardly usable. Disabling HDR on the monitor solved the problem. Honestly, I don't see much of a difference between enabled and disabled HDR.
