Review: Good quality, feature-packed monitor - Pros: +Good image quality for the price you're paying +Multiple, configurable image options. I've attached a few in the images. Image 1 = Stabdard, Image 2 = M-book and Image 3 = E-paper) +Has an E-paper which is in black & white. It's good for use at night or for reading. +It has a low blue light mode that you can adjust directly from the monitor. +Has 2 HDMI ports and 1 Display port +Very good performance for the price. 1080p, 100Hz, many features built in for <£100. +Decent sound quality, but I usually use headphones. +Very easy to set up. About 5 mins total. Cons: -Monitor stand is really short and cannot be moved (I bought and invision Vesa 100 monitor arm as seen in the photos). -No Type-C port, but that might not really be an issue for you. TL;DR: Great Price to performance ratio. Good image quality and low blue light mode is helpful. But, I recommend you get a monitor arm.
Review: Fantastic monitor for under £90. - I purchased this monitor as a backup to my Del 4K monitor. And although it does not have the resolution or the depth of colour to the Del it holds up well for the price point the screen is clear and bright and the colours are comparable to the more expensive Del monitor. I’m going to give it a solid 4 out of 5 for screen quality and build quality however the stand is not up to BenQ usual quality. Overall, I am thoroughly impressed as I paid less than £90. Overall, I’m going to give it 5 out of 5 because it’s such a fantastic monitor for the price and using it as a dual monitor in conjunction with my four times more expensive Del monitor it holds up very well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HDMI, DisplayPort, USBC and competent speakers, good price too
*by B***B on 8 August 2025*

A surprisingly good quality monitor at a very reasonable price. I needed something that would manage a USB video input (and all of the rest). My newest laptop simply forgot about HDMI and would happily use the USBC, much to my delight. The speakers are more than the adequate, although I would have preferred to HDMIs, instead of two DisplayPorts, but given it's technological versatility I can appreciate why they did it. My one came with two power cables, a European and the UK one. Seemingly, according to the startup screen, it went through numerous certifications and you can see it is a very decent monitor and no corners cut. Recommended.
