Thanks, very helpful review. I purchased one after seeing this review.
Was it good?
@@Ikhwan-3560 Very nice monitor for its price. Very nice color reproduction, and no issues what so ever. Really a "bang for the buck" monitor
Kya speaker chal raaha h
@@anything9642 Yes it works. You just need to switch source of audio to Benq Speaker from computer's audio settings. Also, need to connect your PC/laptop via HDMI not VGA in order for your Benq speakers to work.
I have bought this *BENQ GS2283* Model Monitor 😀. It comes only with *VGA Cable* but no *HDMI Cable* But the problem is that the *VGA Cable* doesn't support in *CU Cabinet* 😓. Means the *Motherboard* which i am using to build my "PC Desktop" doesn't have *VGA Port* option 😕😟. So i have to buy a *HDMI Port Cable* to get display...😅.
hi, i have a question here.
Can i switch between 2 different cpu display input since there have 2 hdmi port
Yes, if you have two devices connected with the two HDMI ports, you can simultaneously switch between the two using the buttons under the monitor (you can briefly see the buttons at 3:08); the monitor calls the two ports "HDMI1" and "HDMI2". The buttons are pretty intuitive, and will allow you to switch to anything connected to the VGA port too (monitor calls it D-Sub).
Thank you very much man, nowhere on the Russian TH-cam there is no review on this monitor

Hi can you tell me how many inches your laptop screen is. I want to use the monitor with my laptop but my laptop is only 17.5 inch and I wanted to know if the monitor will look too big for my laptop
Are you still using this? Hows the eye strain? Is it good for staring/using it for long hours? Pls respond..
Sorry for responding so late! (I haven't been checking this channel that much lately)
Ya, I'm still using it (as I type lol). It seems pretty good for long hours but I do have the low blue light setting on so maybe that helps.
I beg your pardon. I saw in Mediamarkt that Benq monitors have 50 hz. I just want know if this is true or not? I need to know please, because I want to buy 4 Benq monitors for retrogaming and actual games.
It would definitely depend on the model of the BenQ monitor. The BenQ GW2283 I got had a native refresh rate of 60hz. If the seller or website is selling the same model and claiming it is 50hz, I would maybe consider reaching out to them and checking if it is a typo or something.
51 days till I get mine
Please tell me how I can turn the sound on
can you plug in a speaker into this monitor and get audio while playing your ps3?Thanks man
Yes, although the speakers on the monitor itself aren't that great, you have the option to connect external speakers. It has two audio ports (3:29).

@@mithstechchannel4273 ok thanks!
does it come with power cord in addition to the VGA cord?
Yes. A power cord is generally included with the purchase of most monitors, including this one. It is highly unlikely that the power cord will not be included unless it is specifically specified to be missing (maybe in used or open box listings). So, in short, yes it comes with both a VGA cable and a power cord.
Mith's Tech Channel Thanks, staples.ca website only mentions that VGA cable is provided. No mention of power cord that’s why I wanted to clarify. Logic says that it should

Does this really have 60hz? Can you adjust it to 75hz?
I've tried to overclock it but was unsuccessful (might have been a laptop limitation though). Natively, the the refresh rate is 60hz though, if that's what you're asking.
@@mithstechchannel4273 have you encounter issue with this monitor., ive recently bought mine. Ive encountered issues like black screen in split seconds, and the drivers from device manager were also gone. Ive already tried several troubleshoot like uninstalling the driver and restarting the pc, updating the driver, updating windows update. Updating the driver from the benQ website, replacing my hdmi cable with a new one, but none of them works. What do you think should i need to do?
When i buy one i will have 2 benQs because i have a computer named benQ but when i put one benq but it dosent fit because theres a lamp when i put it the lamp will fall down
The tissues and lotion. Explain yourself.
I got mine today. How do we use Monitor speakers? I am using it with my laptop.
What do I need to do?
If it's a Windows laptop, click on the volume icon on the taskbar. Then, click the arrow pointing up, and change the playback device to "BenQ GW2283..." speakers. I didn't like the speakers that much and have my laptop speakers on instead, but you can experiment with it.
Hey bro do you think this manitor is good to buy or Msi pro mp 242 ?
I get a be grateful if you answer me 🙏
Thanks for the review it was helpful.
In the settings can you set the refresh rate 75?
Unfortunately you can't adjust the refresh rate on this particular model.
If you plan on using this on pc you can potentially overclock the refresh rate to 75hz on nvidia control panel

Mi pc benq enciende pero se queda en Intentando realizar reparaciones ....que hago ..ayuda
Puede ser un problema de la computadora que está conectada al monitor, puede verificar esto intentando conectar otro dispositivo (utilicé el traductor de Google porque no sé nada de español)
Nice review brother....I am considering two BenQ monitors- the GW2780 and the EW2780. Both are 27 inch panels with 1080p resolution IPS panel with 5ms response rate (the exact same panel as yours, I believe, though different size). The EW2780 supports HDRi and 75Hz refresh rate and costs around $211 (USD) and has better speakers while the GW2780 has no HDRi with 60Hz refresh rate and costs 180$. So my question is which of the two will be better? At the moment, I really can't afford a 1440p monitor because of its high price ($350+) and also because my laptop can't really play games at that resolution. Also, I don't want a 24 inch monitor because I plan to read a lot and also don't have space for a 32 inch monitor. So, 27 inch will be the sweet spot for me. So which one do you recommend- the GW2780 or the EW2780 and is the BenQ HDRi as good as they claim it to be or just a gimmick? (Also, the EW2780 has a black and white read mode but I don't know how good or effective that is).
TL;DR: Suggest me one between the BenQ GW2780 and the BenQ EW2780. Both are 1080p IPS. The EW2780 has HDRi and 75Hz refresh while GW2780 has 60Hz with no HDRi.
Sorry for the long post and looking forward to your reply.
P.S. Really amazing and honest review and your engagement with your viewers just melted by heart.
Thanks and much love. :)
Hey Rajarshi! Thanks for the kind words!
So, I'll start off with another big difference between the two monitors (which might not be a big deal for some users), their connectivity; the GW2780 has an HDMI port, a DisplayPort, and a VGA / D-Sub port which means that it can be connected to most devices without the need of a separate adapter or a special cable. However, the EW2780 only has 3 HDMI ports. If all your devices have an HDMI out port, or if you have (or are willing to buy) separate adapters/cables to connect your devices via HDMI this shouldn't really be an issue.
Now, you mentioned that you plan on playing games on the monitor. In that case, the EW2780 would definitely be a better performer. Even if you aren't able to reach 75 FPS (to take advantage of the refresh rate), BenQ claims that the HDRi technology (which is proprietary to BenQ BTW) will give you more vivid detail in games. According to BenQ: "While HDRi benefits span most types of computer use, it is invaluable for gaming. Think of the edge you have when you can see everything on your display in vivid detail, and your opponents can’t." (www.benq.com/en-us/knowledge-center/knowledge/whats-the-difference-between-hdr-and-hdri.html)
If you had the two monitors side by side, movies would also likely look better on the EW2780 because of the HDRi, so it might be worth it if you know that you will be watching a lot of movies (or if the quality is very important to you) or if you'll be playing games somewhat competitively.
In my opinion, HDRi is not a gimmick per se, but the importance of it is determined by the buyer. Personally, I probably wouldn't pay the extra $31 because I don't game that often, I'd prefer to have a VGA port just in case, and I mostly just use my monitor for productivity (e.g. just multi-tasking usually).
Also, the speakers wouldn't really be that much of a deciding factor, because the speakers on monitors are almost always worse than laptop speakers (and definitely worse than external speakers). I can almost guarantee that your laptop's speakers are better than both of the monitor's speakers combined.
TL;DR: The BenQ GW2780 has a wider range of ports (1×HDMI, 1×DisplayPort, 1×VGA/D-Sub), and that's about its only advantage over the BenQ EW2780 (other than its price), so if port variety is important to you, the GW2780 would be the better choice (the EW2780 has 3×HDMI). Also, the speakers shouldn't play much of a role in deciding which to get since laptop speakers (or external ones) are generally always better.
I think that the HDRi technology on the EW2780 isn't really a gimmick and will make your experience better especially if you are gaming even a little competitively or watching movies (or even high-quality videos actually). The higher refresh rate should also be an advantage if you are getting over 60 FPS in any games. So, my final verdict is that you should get the BenQ EW2780 IF you are fine with it having only HDMI ports and you value the better contrasts and luminosity you'll get from the HDRi.
Sorry if my answer was not definitive enough or too vague (or long), but both are great monitors, and particular features may be more important to some users than others.
Thanks for watching, and feel free to ask for clarification if needed! Stay safe! 😁
@@mithstechchannel4273 Brother....First of all I'm beyond amazed by the depth of your answer. I think you are the first (and probably the only) TH-camr who has responded to my comment and that too at this level of detail. I can definitely tell that you do care about us (your viewers) and have real knowledge about the stuff you talk about.
Coming to the monitors, I think I will be going with the EW2780 because of the better picture quality and the higher refresh rate (my GTX 1650 does pack a punch for some of the older titles with FPS reaching upto 80 on Ultra and some newer games reaching around 80 fps in medium to low settings). So, yes 75 Hz will be beneficial in my case. Again, my laptop does only have a HDMI port and even if I build a desktop PC in the future (which seems like a distant dream as I am only a student now), I believe it will have HDMI support. So yes, the ports won't be much of an issue at least in the foreseeable future.
About the speakers, yes I forgot to mention and apologize because I will be using external speakers (5.1 channel, only 30 bucks lol) and headphones. So, the monitor speakers really don't play a deciding role here.
I will, however, watch movies (probably a lot) and definitely care about quality in both movies and games (personally I play offline story driven games and really don't mind input lag, for example I used to play on my 32" Samsung TV without game mode on and didn't notice any lag back then, but that maybe just me; but I do want my games to look as gorgeous as possible).
TL;DR: I am going with the EW2780 because of better picture quality and will use external speakers with it.
P.S.: Sorry for the long reply and thanks for replying to me in such a short time and clearing my doubts. We really need people like you. Keep up the good work. Thanks and much love. Sorry for my English as I am not a native. :)
@@rajarshichaudhuri1356 Glad I could help! I think you're making the right choice, given your current gaming rig and situation. I hope you enjoy using your new monitor!
By the way, your English is great! I wouldn't have been able to tell that you're not a native 😂.
@@mithstechchannel4273 Thanks for your kind help really. My gaming rig is just a mid-range laptop lol. Yeah, let's see how it goes with the monitor. Will look in my local market as they often have cheaper rates than online (that's where I got my laptop in the first place).
About my English, it really is flattering that you said you weren't able to tell I'm not a native. Guess I must be practicing good. LOL.
Anyway, you are one of the nicest guys I've come across and I wish you all the luck in life and TH-cam. 😊

Hi, I read that the input voltage is 100-240v. Can I plug it to an extension cord with input voltage of 250v ac 50/60hz?
bad unboxing :( but nice trying
Black levels are good no glow ?
make one videos on calibration this monitor because for productive use like editing it does not show right color and link that video to this video so viewers can see both too
Hi is this monitor good for gaming ?
As in Pc Gaming build not consoles.
This monitor is only 60hz. If you want a better one get 120hz or 144hz
Nuubie Plays COD is right, the specs of this monitor aren't the best for gaming: it's refresh rate is 60hz and response time is 5ms. If your PC gives you a FPS higher than 60 on the games you play, then you'd benefit from getting a monitor with a higher refresh rate. If not, you could consider this, but remember the refresh rate of the screen provides a 'hard' cap on the FPS you'll actually be able to see.
@@bryllem.7509 thanks for the info bro. much appreciated! I would love to get a higher refresh rate monitor but im really on a tight budget to get one .
thanks man very helpful
Thanks for watching!
I was looking for the best recipes for the model and I found urs.. Amazingly done.. Thank you so much ❤️
what is the protrusion on the bottom? looks like a camera
hey Elle! I believe that part on the bottom is for housing a sensor which detects light and is used for the auto-brightness feature.
@@mithstechchannel4273 thanks! It was freaking me out I don't like cameras on my monitors lop
Good pants
Is this monitor good for gaming!?
It's alright for some light gaming, but the 5ms response time won't be suitable for 'serious' gamers. Also, the 60hz refresh rate means that if you are getting FPS higher than 60, the monitor would cap it at 60 (it might say you're getting higher than 60 FPS but you'll really only see 60).
! But on the label on the box says MODEL GW2280 that is a VA PANEL NOT IPS ?!
Oop you're right. Beside the product name it says "GW-2283", but beside model it says "GW2280-T" on the box.
Hopefully, it's just labelled incorrectly and the panel is actually an IPS 😅. That said, I don't have the expertise (or equipment?) to 100% confirm that the panel is an IPS, but to me it looks pretty good (which doesn't say much, sorry).
If you are still curious, I guess you could reach out to BenQ and ask if the GW2283 truly has an IPS even if the box says otherwise.
is the sound coming from the monitor itself or there is external speakers attached to it?? I tried to connect speakers to the monitor..but no sound... is there any setting problem?
In my video, the sound is coming from speakers within the monitor. If you are using Window 10, try clicking the volume icon and changing the output device from there.
Do I need make changes in monitor setting is color ok
I bought 60.5 monitor pc benq today
Car game name plz
I connected my phone using Chromecast. Display was really great. But there was no sound. I tried connecting with headphones, wired speaker (plug into audio port), wireless speaker, earphones. Nothing worked well. Can u please help?
Hello, so I actually don't have a Chromecast, so I just watched this video (th-cam.com/video/iWCoZ6E6cac/w-d-xo.html) to understand how it works. I'm sure you won't need to watch it because you already set it up.
Anywho, so first of all, the monitor's built-in speakers aren't that loud in the default volume setting. If you are able to increase the monitor's volume with your phone, try increasing it and checking if any sound comes out. After doing that, try increasing the volume with the buttons under the monitor as well (their maybe two different volume settings). Using these buttons should be pretty intuitive, but if you need help, you could ask.
In regards to the external headphones and speakers, make sure that you are connecting them to the audio port in the corner (far right) not the other one. I think the other one is for a mic.
Thank you.

How is the font, is it clear or isn't it blurry?
Is that the built in speakers? Pretty loud huh
nice review
Is this the original sound of the monitor speakers??
thx for the review u are the only one that has a good monitor and a good english
Bro can I use it for gaming with my console ps4? Like is it good for gaming
I think it's ok for gaming, but if you plan on getting FPS higher than 60, or need very high response times, a gaming monitor might be a better bet.
What about the hertz anyone???
This particular model has a 60 hertz refresh rate.
@@mithstechchannel4273 ok thx
Hey Thanks for the review. I have one question. I am looking to buy this as an extended display for my laptop and want to get it for my office work( I am into product testing), will this be a good option, especially about speakers, are these good for calls (skype and teams) and normal movies/songs( again I am not someone who looks for home theatre sound). or I will be having flexibility use my laptop speaker even when I have connected this one?
Yes, this monitor fairs well as an extended display. However, I am not a fan of its speakers that much. They are not very powerful or clear either. Therefore, I always have the audio come out of my laptop speakers. So, to answer your question, I think that the monitor should be fine for movies and watching things as long as the sound is outputted from somewhere else. As a display, the image and colours are very clear and sharp.
Thank you for review.. Today I purchased it.. But it's in Bild sound doesn't work.. I don't have speaker. So I purchase it. My headphone Jack of cabinate is working.. Is there any other settings to use inbuilt speaker of monitor in windows 10. Please help..
In Windows 10, if you click the volume icon on the taskbar, it should show you where the sound is being outputted from. When the monitor is connected, click on that, and you'll your options for where to output the sound For me, if I want to use the monitor's speakers I need to click "BenQ GW2283 (Intel(R)) Audio)".
Also you'll need an HDMI connection for the sound OR run a 3.5mm male to male cable from your PC to the monitor.
great review! does it tilt?
Yes
It tilts forward and backwards, but not side ways. (there is no height adjustment tho, unless you VESA mount it)
How to on inbuilt speaker . Plz tell me
Is this monitor still working to this day? And does it have an audio port at the back of the monitor for my headset?
Ya, the monitor is still working. Yes, it does have an audio port at the back, which I believe should work with a headset.
How to reduce brightness?
1. Click any of the buttons other than the power button.
2. Click third button from the right (middle button)
3. From this menu, go to "Eye Care" and check if "Bright Intelligence" is on. If it is on, you will need to turn it off (and the click the tick option) to manually adjust brightness.
4. Go to 'Picture', and you should be able to change brightness now.
(I prefer to have "Bright Intelligence on though because it automatically adjusts the brightness)
is the sound from monitor? please confirm
Is it ok to use it as a TV
I mean connect it to a set-top box and watch sport channels
How is the qulity of the picture will be
The quality is pretty good. It is a FHD (1920 by 1080) display which is the standard in many places. However it is only 22 inches diagonally which is small relative to most TVs. So, it might be too small if you are watching it from far away, but if you are relatively close, it should work just fine with a TV box.
@@mithstechchannel4273 Thanks
does connecting it via VGA output 1080p?
Ey quick question does this model have a webcam or an build in camera?
No, no built-in camera on this model 😅
For the love of God, i can't seem to figure out how to remove the stand. Can you please help :(
Oh nooo, I apologize for not answering sooner (hopefully you have figured it out by now).
Just in case, and for anyone else wondering, there is a small button above the stand which has the text "RELEASE" pointing toward it. You need to press that with something narrow before pulling the stand out.
How much color accuracy it has for video editing and photo editing work? Plz tell
Can i buy this for color accuracy work like editing?
Someone actually asked if the monitor would be good for photo editing a few weeks ago. Below is what my response was then:
"It should be alright for photo editing. It has a 72% NTSC color gamut, which isn't that bad and 100% sRGB. You can look into this Reddit post if you'd like: www.reddit.com/r/Photography_Gear/comments/c3u03y/is_a_72_ntsc_monitor_for_photo_editing_okay/. Personally, I don't do photo editing, so I cannot speak from experience, but it seems like it should do just fine."
So, although I don't do photo editing, I have do some light video editing with it. In my opinion, it does absolutely fine for my purposes (mostly just TH-cam). FYI, if you are doing serious editing, you will probably want to calibrate the monitor (but that applies to any monitor). Quite frankly, I do not know a whole lot in the realm of display color accuracies, but from the little research I did, the monitor's color gamut is about average (in relation to modern monitors) at 100% sRGB. That translates to about 70% Adobe RGB. Now, this is much better than my laptop which has a color accuracy of only 54% sRGB (probably due to a TN panel, IPS panels should have a considerably higher color accuracy). Now, I think professionals prefer an Adobe RGB above 90%, but monitors with that will probably be much costlier.
So, to conclude, I think it will be alright for editing in general. The color accuracy is not below average. I hope I was able to answer your question.
Hello, I am planning to buy this monitor, does it overclock well to 75hz?
I wasn't successful when I tried overclocking it, but that might have been due to the bottleneck of the pc connected only supporting 60hz, so I can't give a definitive response, sorry.
Probably gonna use this as my secondary monitor.. you think it’s a good choice to pair it with my 240hz monitor?
I think it should be alright as long as you're not attempting to use both monitors for gaming; if you use both, obviously this one will appear a lot less smooth. So, if you're using this just as second a second monitor it should be alright.
does it have a built in speaker?
how can i open it with a dvd? cpu
Is this monitor 60hz will it be able to run games at 60fps?
Yes the refresh rate is 60 hz. The FPS you get in the game itself is determined by how powerful your pc is for gaming (and the settings of the game). The monitor's refresh rate just puts a 'hard cap' on how many FPS are actually coming through for you to see (outputted by monitor). So if you are getting 60 FPS or less, theoretically, the monitor will be able to display everything just fine.
However, if you get FPS higher than 60, the monitor will bottleneck the FPS actually coming through at 60, so you won't really get the full benefit of the higher FPS. For example if you are getting 100 FPS, the monitor will still output only 60, because it refreshes its screen 60 times a second, so it can't possible push out more frames.
In short, yes, it will be able to display games at 60 FPS (and higher too, but the max FPS output from monitor is 60).
Hey buddy, can the 60hz refresh rate on this monitor be overclocked to at least 75hz? Could you try overclocking and then get back to me? Thanks.
So, according to the specifications of this particular model the max is 60hz. I tried overclocking anyways with: www.windowscentral.com/how-overclock-your-pc-monitor. It didn't work.
Update: I'm not completely sure if if this will be the case if others try as well though. That's because the laptop the monitor was connected to also has a max refresh of 60hz. I wouldn't recommend trying to overclock it though because I'm having some issues after trying which I'm attempting to fix right now.
Update 2: After reinstalling graphics drivers, it's back to normal. To answer your question, the overclocking did not work. There is another model in the BenQ GW2280 series which supports switching between 60hz and 75hz though: amzn.to/35tNoIO
Dude are you using the monitors in-built speakers?
Yes, I believe I was using them in the video, but normally I don't use them when it is connected to my laptop.
If you use it like a computer connecting it to your laptop does the USB ports of the monitor connect to the conputer?
This particular monitor does not have USB ports unfortunately.
Is the screen bleeding issue you found after several days of use?
I mean i am checking on Amazon and most buyers has noticed screen bleeding
I've been using the monitor for a few months and haven't noticed any screen bleeding on my particular model.
If you get the exact same model as I did... the BenQ GW2283, and it's from a reputable seller (or directly from BenQ), I doubt that there will be a screen bleeding issue. However, If the reviews on Amazon are negative, maybe make sure that the seller accepts returns before buying, just in case the same issue occurs with your product.
@@mithstechchannel4273 noted thanks !!
what panel is it?
According to the specifications, the display panel is IPS, but on the box for some reason it said VA. From the viewing angles, it appears to be an IPS panel.
Mith's Tech Channel ok thanks
1 question how much hertz (hz) is it i hope for a soon reply
60hz
Really late comment but I want to say thank you for doing this. I’m picking this monitor up as a second display for my console and another one up later for my pc to have a triple monitor setup.
how's is it going with you so far? I'm thinking of purchasing it too as a second monitor just to watch videos while I play. would u recommend this?
I might have to order this it looks really good thanks for this review
Does it come with a hdmi cable
Hi what is the input lag of the benq gw2283?
The response time (which I believe is different from input lag) according to the official specifications is 5ms, which is alright for an IPS panel, but a little too much for some gamers (many gaming monitors use TN panels which generally have higher response times.
With my normal usage (productivity, web browsing mostly), I found the input lag and response time to be completely fine for my needs.
Do this monitor have built-in microphone ?
No, unfortunately, I believe it does not have a built-in microphone.
Which monitor is best samsung or benq in same price range
Tough question. It probably depends on the exact models, but I'm guessing that the Samsung ones will look nicer but the BenQ ones might be more reliable. Their both good brands though.
does the gw2283 output audio via HDMI with the builtin speakers?
Yes, you can output audio through it's built-in speakers via the HDMI in port. So connecting something to the monitor will allow you to use the monitor's speakers if you wish, but if there is another speaker available (e.g. connecting a laptop), you should be able to choose which speaker to use through the OS.
Thank you!
I have a question regarding the color of the screen? Does it show the right colors, as same as the colors projected on your main source (in my case my laptop). I'm doing graphic design and illustrations so just checking if the monitor shows the right colors. Thank you in advance!
If you are working in the sRGB color space, I think you will be fine because this monitor has almost 100% sRGB coverage. However, perhaps consider turning off the low blue light mode when doing work that requires very precise colors.
Does the included stand support vertical orientation?
Unfortunately, there is no screen rotation or height adjustment with the included stand with this model. There is only a little tilt adjustment (- 5˚ to 20˚). However, it is compatible with VESA mounting (100 by 100 mm) in case you want to use a VESA mount.
Bro are the speakers good enough to hear from less than half metre distance?
Well, in most cases, yes. However, like many other monitors, the speakers on this monitor are not as clear or loud as the ones on most laptops or external speakers. Media consumption (TH-cam or Movies) with this monitor's speakers might be a bit displeasing, but that is the case with most monitor speakers. They are usually audible from that distance though.
@@mithstechchannel4273 hmmm okk, thanks for replying :)
Hi, is it possible to adjust the height of the screen?
No, not unless you use VESA mounts (this is compatible with 100 by 100mm mounts). Unfortunately, the included stand has no height adjustment.
is hdmi included in the package?
No, only a VGA cable was included 😟
Hi thanks! I have one question, do u know how to extract the base from the screen?
If you look carefully, right above the stand, in the middle, there is a hole which says "RELEASE" beside it. You have to press the button inside that hole with an object (like a small allen key) and then pull the stand out (pull downwards).
Yo bro what picture settings do you use for this monitor ?
I normally have the "Picture Mode" set to "Low Blue Light" and I keep Bright Intelligence turned on
Very good review, i have a question what is the real width of the monitor? Thanks
I just double checked with a tape measure, the real WIDTH of the monitor is exactly what BenQ puts as the HEIGHT, 489.5 mm. The actual screen (which lights on) width is slightly less, at about 474 mm.
will it work with ps4 slim and is it 1080p or 16:9
Yes, it should work with a ps4 slim and the monitor is both 1080p and 16:9
@@mithstechchannel4273 thx
Nice...Is this 60hz or 144hz ?
Thanks :D, it's 60hz
I have the same but 75 hz and 24 in
What pc did you hook up to it??? Prebuilt, built? What.
I hooked it up to my Dell Inspiron 14 5000 laptop (2019 model).
Mith's Tech Channel Ok
Hey Mith, it's your biggest fan! Love the videos and keep them coming!

I'm sorry, I don't understand Russian 😢.
I think you said something about the bed being on bricks (Google Translate). Were you asking why it's on bricks 😅?
the monitor sound is not working on my computer do i need to install driver?
No, you don't need to install drivers. If you are using Windows 10, you need to click the volume icon on the taskbar while the monitor is connected. From there, you can set the playback device and the BenQ should be an option.
If you have something like your laptop connected to the monitor, the odds are the laptop has far better speakers btw. Most monitors have pretty awful speakers. If you select the BenQ speakers and you still can't hear them, try turning up the volume and listening closely for a sound (they're that bad in some cases).
@@mithstechchannel4273 thank you for your reply...but i have windows 7...also is it necessary to connect the monitor via hdmi cable to hear computer audio ?
@@jjaybalan6050 If you would like to use the monitor's speakers you will need to connect the laptop via HDMI (VGA doesn't transmit sound). However, if the computer has built-in speakers, odds are they're better than the monitor's ones. If you use a VGA connection, you may need to connect the laptop to the monitor with an aux cord as well (this may help then: superuser.com/questions/788581/how-do-i-enable-the-integrated-speakers-on-my-monitor). Sorry, I'm not completely sure what the process would be for Windows 7 though.
Does this have a built in speaker?
Yes, it does have built-in speakers
is it good to pair with ryzen 3 3200g?
There shouldn't be any compatibility issues. If you are getting around 60 FPS in games or lower currently (or think you will), then there shouldn't really be a problem with getting this monitor. If you have not used the processor yet, or aren't sure about what FPS you'll get, you can check out videos like these: th-cam.com/video/pdR4VHCHW2E/w-d-xo.html and see the FPS with particular games. If you plan on upgrading your GPU so you can get higher frame rates, then the refresh rate of the monitor will probably become a bottleneck (if you're using it for gaming)..Overall, if you're sticking with this processor and the included graphics, this monitor shouldn't be a problem.
@@mithstechchannel4273 hey thanks mate for fast reply.. is there any issue related screen bleeding? in amazon lot's ppl complaining about it
@@prashantnagare6196
No problem! I've been using the monitor for a few weeks now and haven't noticed any backlight bleed at all. Maybe it's a problem with another model, or maybe with the specific seller. I know that BenQ makes similar monitors with different display panels (IPS and VA) so I can't speak for all of their monitors. My model was this one: amzn.to/3ceHLRu. Also, it comes with a 3 year warranty so if problems do arise you should be able to contact BenQ (you might have to pay for shipping/other fees though).
May i know What is major difference between va and ips panel?
VA panels are considered to be like a "middle ground" between TN and IPS panels. The refresh rates tend to be better than IPS, but worse than TN. They also usually have better viewing angles and colors than TN, but worse than IPS. However, since their response times tend to be pretty bad, they probably aren't the best for gaming. Those are the general characteristics, but the exact specs depends on the monitor.
In my opinion, the most major difference between VA and IPS panels are that IPS tend to have better colors and viewing angles. IPS panels also tend to cost more.
@@mithstechchannel4273 wahh thankss so much for the info..can u suggest me whether va or ips for me (office work(coding+design work) and watching movies) i'm not into gaming so much so i dont care much about refresh rate
@@ammarfaez4907 IPS would probably be the better choice because of the better colors and viewing angles. That might help with your design work as well. However, if you find a really good deal on a VA panel, that could be an option to. If you find that they are around the same price, I would recommend the IPS.
hi, may i know what the height of the monitor is with the stand. :D
39.16 cm 😁
Mith's Tech Channel 👌 thank you so much!!😄
Does it have freesync?
Unfortunately, no.
I am torn between two options, this one or the Asus VZ229H. I need something with great build quality and durable for long term use.
Both monitors have similar specifications. Although I think BenQ might have a slight edge in terms of brand reputability, I think both monitors will last fairly long (if cared for properly). According to a Tom's Hardware forum response " BenQ has a slightly better picture, a better stand, more inputs, and more settings", but that might vary with the exact model (forums.tomshardware.com/threads/asus-or-benq.2091315/#:~:text=BenQ%20is%20typically%20more%20expensive,brand%2C%20no%20question%20about%20it.).
Although the Asus VZ229H has 1 fewer HDMI port, I believe its design is sleeker and a bit more appealing than the BenQ GW2283. However, the monitors are, otherwise, almost on par with each other. Personally, I would get which ever one I can find a better deal on. Where I live, the BenQ can be bought for a lower price, so I'd pick that one.
Good luck finding/choosing one! Stay safe!
@@mithstechchannel4273 hey, thanks a lot for the insight! The BenQ is slightly cheaper where I live as well. I think I'll go for the BenQ Monitor and see how well it does!
A.S.M. FOYSAL how is it ?
@@lucius8686 I saw both the monitors and ended up getting the Asus VZ229HE. It's a lot sleeker and modern to look at. The BenQ looked a bit old fashioned (kindda like my old 10yr old monitor). The BenQ has got some great features and functionality though, ambient light sensor, Vesa mount, built-in speakers, Cable Management and it looked really well built. The only reason I got the Asus was because the BenQ wasn't aesthetically pleasing.
A.S.M. FOYSAL what about picture quality and colour accuracy wise, how do both monitors compare when it comes to that?
