Terribly poor sound quality - don't buy for speakers

I didn't buy this monitor because I thought it would sound *great*, but I bought it in part because it has built-in speakers that I thought I could use. For example, the audio from the tiny speakers in my laptop is acceptable, so the BenQ should be able to get decent audio from this monitor. However, the sound quality is SHOCKING - tinny and distorted. So much so that I'll be forced to use external speakers or headphones. It really is that bad - terrible.

My newest monitor - my new test report

This is my first experience with a monitor much larger than what I usually buy. Personally I would say this monitor was worth every penny. It's very easy on my eyes since I use it for video games on my PC. The quality of the screen does not meet my expectations, in fact it has exceeded my expectations many times over. It's easy to use with side buttons for each connector you want to connect to your monitor, easy to set up and take apart for transport (requires a screwdriver to press button down

Fantastic monitor with weak sound

In this review I will be as simplified as possible. I bought it mainly for the response time and image quality as I use it for excessively long gameplay. The above reasons surprisingly turned out to be exactly what I expected. If you are buying this monitor to use the speakers as the main audio source I would advise against it. There's no bass at all in the speakers, so they're really lackluster in that regard. (For example, get in your car and play a song with the bass completely turned off.)…

Simply Amazing - my new review

I love this monitor. It's great for gaming and gives me exactly what I wanted. Even if you're stupid like me and end up banging your monitor, it will last. I wouldn't recommend this, but I've clicked mine about a dozen times and it hasn't lost a single pixel.

Good monitor for the price

This is definitely a bang for your buck. This monitor is really nice and sleek, the only issue I have is that it's a bit "chunky". The stand is quite chunky, as is the display frame, but other than that it's definitely worth buying.

  • Low refresh rate

I've had this monitor for a number of years and am finally going to have to move on as the refresh rate is 60Hz instead of 120Hz for PS5, but I have no complaints and wanted to say it's legit. This is definitely a budget monitor but for 1080 and 1ms you won't beat the price. Great job BENQ.

Great monitor! - my new rating

A great monitor for the price! Amazing quality and refresh rate. Very easy to assemble and disassemble! This is a great monitor for those who plan to travel with the monitor as the stand is very easy to take apart. It also rotates up and down (on the Y-axis) which is a plus for me as I like to sit at different vertical angles depending on the activity. The only drawback is the sound of the monitor. It sucks, straight ahead. But if you have a PC with its own dedicated speaker system, or even…

  • The monitor's response time is too slow.

I'd like to give it 5 stars but about a week after receiving it the pixels are dead. I'm not sure I'll bother with an exchange because the repackaging is a hassle and the pixel is in the top right corner so yes , but otherwise a fantastic monitor. Games tested: WoWOverwatchVarious games SteamBorderlandsCODStarcraft All games run smoothly without problems, FPS rates are there, performance is zero. I have an older one (made maybe 2 years ago) and it's perfect too, I took the second one for this…

One of the best gaming monitors

I have a PS4 Pro and this monitor looks great. I mainly use it for Fortnite and all other competitive games. I've played with three other buddies who have 4K gaming monitors that are both $500 or more, and this monitor still looks way better than ASUS's. I'm not sure which ASUS monitor they have, but they all spent a lot more on their monitor than I did. The sound really sucks, but you should still use headphones for competitive gaming. So I'm not deducting any stars for that.

Very disappointed: my rating

I was very unimpressed with this monitor and will be returning it. I saw the color reviews here on Revain before I bought it and ignored them (I think most people are overly critical) - but they're right. The color reproduction on this monitor is just plain bad and contrary to what some people say can only be improved slightly with a tweak. You can adjust colors with the terrible (and very unresponsive) OSD menu. You spend half an hour pressing cheap plastic buttons over and over again and get…

Absolutely amazing gaming monitor! Love this monitor, I had an old RL2455HM and it didn't look as good as this one. Excellent colors, didn't notice any difference to an IPS monitor. Very deep blacks and overall a great image with dense pixel density. The speakers are good, the on-screen menu is useful. The build quality is superb, there's no cheap shine here and it's easy to clean. The colors worked right out of the box, all I had to do was adjust the brightness and disable AMA. BenQ is the…

Great and cheap for beginners

It's a good gaming monitor that I won't like but lacks a 4k picture or sleek looks. It looks like an early monitor. It's worth it for what it is though. I still don't regret the purchase but for a low budget monitor and for a beginner it's the best.

Great monitor. the best in my rating

I like the image and the smoothness of the gameplay on the monitor. The only thing I don't like about the monitor is that from a certain angle the image turns white, you have to look straight into the monitor to avoid those white outlines. It's also a bit annoying that there's always a small blue dot in the middle right of the monitor, which isn't that distracting, but is noticeable if you pay attention to it.

The best choice for gaming

When my Acer broke, I ordered a BenQ GL2460HM 24" 1080p gaming monitor. However, a few seconds after connecting, something was wrong, fuzzy, fuzzy and not sharp. I immediately went back to Revain and based on the reviews, chose this one Monitor. It's worth a few bucks more. The picture difference between this and the GL246HM is very noticeable. I'm not an avid gamer. More of a part-time/entertainment game and it suits my needs perfectly and at the right price.

Designed by gamers for gamers

My son has been using an old Dell monitor for years but had a few dead pixels and wanted a new monitor so he could have two - one to leave at home and one to take to gaming events with friends. . I first bought him another monitor that had issues with ghosting (or something) so I sent it back, did a little more research and got this one. He was delighted with the performance. His only complaint is that it doesn't break or get stowed away as easily as his other monitor, but since he has another…
