I have the older model of the 144hz version of this (benq ex2780q). It's been my best overall-usage monitor, especially for the price. Now I upgraded my PC so I figured I'd go with the "same" monitor, just higher refresh rate. Excited! I'm just not quite sure if I should keep my current 144hz monitor and go for a dual 27" setup or keep it single monitor.
Hands down that you mentioned min brightness level, I never saw that in reviews and its important if ppl want to watch screen in darker rooms. I returned three monitors because of this cause brightness was just too high around 50 nits.
I just ordered this for a birthday present and as an upgrade for hdmi 2.1 since i got a ps5 and cant play 60hz anymore lol, i'm getting on the 22nd two days before my birthday.
@@Walker-v2c I’ve never turned mine off lol (it turns on when I turn pc on) and no shine that I can hear and I’m super sensitive to that stuff. Sorry to hear that man I like this monitor a lot
I'd assume you still got all the test information from various monitors. It would be really great if you could make a comparison video in different areas such as response time, input lag, color accuracy and so on.
@@dprelate7285 yeah, it's something I do for input lag, but for response time it's a bit trickier as it's not always clear cut which is best (ie extreme OD might be the best result but unplayable)
Some ufo shots online indicate BenQ's blur reduction + freesync implementation isn't very good! It double strobes even at max Hz/fps. Without freesync it does single strobe as it should. Asus's, Gigabyte's and MSI's vrr strobing seems to be better, no reviews on Philips's implementation yet.
@@TotallydubbedHD sadge 🙁Maybe one (two) questions: No reviewer ever mentions if they use FreeSync/Gsync when the monitor comes with a low response time display or a good motion blur/ghosting reduction technology. Is FreeSync/Gsync irrelevant for a high refresh rate monitor (240 Hz +)? Isn't tearing the worst of all display/image errors?
@@gigamarv sorry, are you referring to Freesync/G-sync working at the same time as MBR/Blur reduction? As this was covered in my review.

Hey, I’m going to buy a new 1440 240hz monitor for gaming. Was wondering what you consider to be the absolute best out there? Price is not an issue, just looking for the best one. Can you help me? Want to make a good investment
Check the description, my personal favourite is the 300hz AOC. The 240hz OLED from Asus is even better but has its own limitations - review of the AOC OLED alternative is coming soon!
Helloo, I am searching for a good gaming monitor for competitive games like CS:GO or Valorant. My Budget is 400€. What could you prefer me? 24 or 27 doesnt matter.
Hi! One question..i'm a pc user. For competitive fps game, its better hdmi 2.1 or display port 1.4a? Wich is faster (or better performance) for competitive?? Thank you! [I've got 2.1a port on my gpu!
I’ve had this monitor for about a week for my ps5. The menu is very complicated and i still haven’t figured out how to turn off the hdr setting.when hdr is on, i cant switch color mode to fps.
@@TotallydubbedHD Yea i have seen full video…actually what i meant to ask was is that really 100 percent smooth experience? Cause my current aorus display worked fine with gsync (with no certification) but it still stutters every now and then making me miss some shots in fps (like 1 in every 10 shots due to that irritating stutter) . When i tun off gsync it doesnt happen but then screen tears….So when i asked you about this monitor is really wanted to know that in person while actual using and playing on this, is it really 110 percent smootb experience? Please let me know as this will be guiding me to order it or not.
OLED isn't exactly perfect either, especially with the refresh rate and the maintenance required, but it's definitely a viable alternative, thus why I've linked my favourite in the description :)
From personal experience I can say it's great for gaming! It's most likely not the very, very fastest monitor on planet earth, but it's good for sure. Streaming, ofcourse. Video editing? It's not on the level of a purely professional monitor but ALOT of reviews claim it's just fine for "amateur level photo/video editing".
Hey! Quick question: I set my resolution both on windows and nvidia on 2560x1440 but 240Hz is nowhere to be seen. The max Hz i can select is 120Hz. What I do remark is that the active signal mode in the advanced settings is stuck on 3840x2160 and also in the menu on the Benq screen itself. Have you ever encountered this problem? P.S Great channel!
@@BeastyieBoy then it should be fine, that's odd. Have you set DP 1.4 in the OSD (or checked for such a setting). Might just be worth resetting the monitor in case you got some odd console mode being used.
i have the ex2510 and i can`t play right with it I don`t know if the problem in my eyes or the monitor when moving the mouse it get to blurry and ghosting and even with slow move sometimes get not full image , could be a bad displayport ?

I have this monitor since April and it is SO GOOD, love it :D very nice colours and super smooth. And i use the speakers a lot
Thanks for sharing, and glad you're enjoying it!
Is it really bright during the day?

Nice one great in depth review of this beastie.
Thanks buddy!
So basically this is the best 240hz 1440p monitor, with almost no ghosting and blur etc. especially since the price is under $600 now ?
It really seems that way compared to aw and asus in this category
@@ninjack322o I got one and it is

If it's an LCD and It ain't FALD the monitor doesn't matter. All monitors should have FALD by now unless they're competitive gaming monitors.
And this one is a 240hz monitor, so...

Maybe it's scenario mode that's confusing you?
you need to turn off HDR in playstation settings. And you can only use HDR modes when it's on. FPS is for non HDR.

BenQ should gsync validate their monitors, its annoying to have to manually force it into gsync and see the "not validated" prompt
First world problems tbh haha

Potentially? No idea! I personally wasn't a big fan of the EX2510
I had that monitor and imo It was great, i did not experienced any issues. Upgrade to an odissey g7, but the benq Will be in my heart
Btw in my monitor i dont see the option to enable blur reduction and in the menu dont appear, where is it?
Check the manual or see the video.
