BenQ 27" PD2700U - designer monitor

Computer monitors, like the many created by BenQ, are an essential part of our daily life for work and play. We all love a large, clear, vivid display when working or playing games. Visual artists, especially, need a well-calibrated designer monitor that delivers an accurate representation of colours. BenQ is a brand creatives are familiar with and have trusted through the years. You can check out the selection of great BenQ monitors online at Best Buy, then enter for a chance to win the amazing 27 inch 4k designer monitor shown above.

BenQ designer monitors are perfect for every visual artist.

This monitor is perfect for someone who relies on delivering quality visual products. BenQ DesignVue Designer Monitor is sharp, bright, good contrast, and pre-calibrated out of the box, this monitor is made for artists. In a different article, I talked about how editing can improve your photography instantly. When editing photos it is important that you are using a calibrated monitor to make sure that your colours and contrast represent the photo exactly how you want. Having a 4K monitor also helps you see all the details in your photos and gives you a higher appreciation of photography, especially if you are using a high megapixel camera where it captures every single detail on its frame.

DualView Setting

One of the features that I love about this monitor is the DualView setting. This allows you to split the monitor into 2 different colour profiles. Features like that make a monitor like this help professionals create high quality digital and printed products by showing what the photo would look like on print or on different screens, so your work will look consistent where ever you see it.

What else can a great monitor do for you?

Other than editing photos, videos, or creating graphic arts, this monitor is also great for watching movies or simply just doing an everyday task like emailing, setting up your website, or writing. It has HDMI & DisplayPort which allows you to connect it to your computer and do another device, perfect for working and switching it to a console game monitor when you need a break. Jacob made a review about this exact same monitor where he gets into more details about this monitor.

I’d like to share them with my other 6 siblings, nephews and nieces, great nephews and nieces so they can remember mom and dad’s story.

  34. I would use it for checking my email and word processing and it is definitely bigger and brighter than my current screen

  35. This monitor will have so many uses for me. I am a amateur photographer and having 4K resolution will help so much for retouching portraits and editing landscapes as I will be able to see so much detail that I currently can’t see with my pc. I am also starting to dabble in creating composites on photoshop and being able to use a 4K monitor will help with creating a visually appealing concept that doesn’t look fake. With a larger screen I will be able to see more when zoomed in and pop ups such as exposure will not cover my picture anymore so I can actually see what the edit is doing to my photo.

    Bonus, having a higher refresh rate and higher resolution and will be able to play some of my video games at a high resolution and it will make my gaming experience so much better.

    Thanks Noah for this, your photos are amazing and an inspiration.
