You are the most detailed reviewer I found for this monitor. The other reviews did not even mention that to output 165Hz and use freesync you need the display port. I was so confused as I used the HDMI and i could not turn free sync on
Switched from the BenQ XL2420T which I have used for almost 8 years and am very happy with the EX2710Q as a 1440p upgrade. Thank you for the superb review and helping me decide on this model!
I learned recently that this monitor outputs a 10 bit color depth but only at 120hz. I can really see the difference though, having used 8 bit for the passed year not knowing this.
Really loving your detailed explanations. I'm deciding on a monitor for casual gaming and media consuming. I don't play competitive games and I do not plan to. I mostly play PS5 titles and Cyberpunk/Assassin's creed type games also I watch a lot of movies and tv shows. New to buying monitors, can you suggest me the settings for the best media consumption and casual gaming? I have a nvidia 1650 in my laptop that I will connect this to. Also, if you have any other recommendations please let me know. My friend bought the acer vg271u for the same use case.
Can't comment about PlayStation - might not work at 1440p, don't know what the latest is with Sony supporting said resolution. Your laptop is also going to be a problem with the port version it has - it might be say HDMI 1.4 thus meaning you can't get higher frames at certain resolutions. Suggest you watch this video for starters: th-cam.com/video/daHrqIFieBU/w-d-xo.html Then once you understand how that works, watch this video for my favourite monitors and choose what's best for you: th-cam.com/video/tGH3SJpoOAQ/w-d-xo.html Glad you're enjoying the detailed videos!
hi! i don't understand a lot about sdr and hdr, but, if i do a custom profile in the osd and i use blur reduction, what is the max brightness? and the lowest? if you now... i look for a 1440 monitor that doesn't lower the brightness or at least it lowers it at an usable level when using blur reduction... Thanks a lot!
I bought that monitor on sale ( boxing day ) paid 499$ CAD I really like it! everything is perfect in my opinion for school, gaming, video/movies. The only downside : brightness. Responses time is amazing, speaker sounds is great, colors are really good. For that price, I'm happy ! Nice review btw!
@Osama.奥萨马 Yes I think the EX2710Q is worth it especially right now. It is on sale! The EX2710R is less expensive but it is a VA panel. Maybe you will not be affected by ghosting or tearing but if you play FPS games, I truly believe that IPS panel are better.
@@UnboxerofWorlds G7 is an equally impressive monitor, but runs a VA panel and is more expensive. If you had the budget and wanted a curved VA 240hz, then get the G7. If you want IPS, then there's the Alienware, but if you don't have the budget for that nor need 240hz, then this would be my choice. See the description too :)
Thank you. I just bought two of these from scan. Bought late evening arrived next day afternoon on a weekend without paying for weekend delivery lol. It looks great! So much better than my old aoc AG241QG with a horrible TN panel and terrible antiglare coating that made everything grainy. Im running it in 120hz 10 bit colour as it is smooth enough for me and i do a lot of creative work. So it valances gaming and professional work. Keeping a custom colour preset. My only question is: Is there a fast easy way to switch between displayHDR and custom SDR without needing to go to windows settings and toggle it all the time?
Great video. Can we turn the HDRi off so that we are left with only HDR? I'm not too keen on the sensor adjusting things automatically. Also, is there a setting for turning HDR on in game menus? Or is HDR a universal setting in the monitor? Thanks.
My panel that I've recieved is: Innolux M270KCJ-K7E C4 For anyone that's kinda skeptical of buying this monitor, no need to (I was at first) Yes, they changed it to the Innolux panel instead of keeping the LG one but this still looks brilliant either way. It receives a 4k signal from Xbox/Ps5 which downscales to 2k but it looks amazing with the right settings adjusted. Speakers are also not that bad imo. If you're worried about the brightness being too low - it looks bright and fine for me. No issues. I can't really vouch if it's good on PC or not as I don't have one (only a console) but it is fantastic for the Xbox Series X. For £220, I'd say it's a bargain for the quality of this monitor tbh. Of course everyone's experience maybe different, it could possibly have it's problems with the monitor or whatso but luckily I've experienced nothing so far. It's kinda a shame there's no remote control tho. Hope this helps anyone reading this ✌️
I watched both your EX2710Q and EX2780Q videos and you said the color is better in this one, in the verdict. I'm asking because on your EX2780Q video at 7:03, both Gamut coverage and Gamut volume are higher than in this video, even after tuning, at 6:34 and I'm a bit confused. I don't know much about calculating color accuracy or what DE 76 means but does this monitor (EX2710Q) have the better color accuracy overall? Thanks for both videos, they are really helpful 😀
Thank you, glad you liked both videos! Lower Delta E is better (closer to 0). Of course, that's only really relevant if you're going to do photo editing or video grading - both look great for the average user/gamer. Hope that makes sense?
@@TotallydubbedHD Sure, I've used your link 😃. I decided to go with the EX2710Q since the price on it compared to the EX2780Q is basically the same or less.
Hi there! Would you recommend better this EX2780Q or the EX2710Q? I’f I understand well and after review some websites both of them can be mount on VESA but I also really concern about the brightness. Right now I am in a dark room, but I don’t want to go to a lighter one and see a lot of reflections there.

@@TotallydubbedHD sorry for being pedantic, but how big of an issue do you think the 250 nits brightness in SDR mode is? It is the only thing keeping me from choosing this one.
The nits and brightness on one is more than the other, I just got the EX2780Q and it’s amazing, I recommend you get it. 1440p is just amazing, and the colors look perfect, especially it’s hdr
I would buy this monitor over looking a lot of videos about Va/ips and i think im gonna take it, compared to the curved version VA of this one for a ps5 is there many differences? Thanks
Hello I got this monitor cuz of your review it’s amazing! I just had a question I’m looking to pair this monitor with a ultrawide. I saw your review for the hpx34 . Would you say that the input lag is very similar to this one?
@@TotallydubbedHD Yes I saw that review also I might go with 34c. Keep up the great videos. Looking forward to a part 2 of best monitor of each resolution for 2024!
Does high refresh rate monitor make feels everything smooth in day to day task also or its just only for gamers . And should i consider this monitor or u have any better suggestions.
This is a really good monitor if you get the one with the panel produced by LG. They switched the panel made by innolux midway through production and kept everything else the same. This newer panel has some real issues with color, some colors never really look correct despite calibrations and ICC profile settings. Seems like the LG panel gets brighter as well. I think this monitor used to retail for $600 and the original panel was sent to to all these reviewers, but the ones on sale for $250 are almost certainly an inferior product that do not align to the specs the reviews are based on
@@TotallydubbedHD yeah it’s a pretty shady business practice. Luckily for me I was able to convince the company to replace mine with the LG panel. It took a lot of communication and time but was well worth it.
Hi i've watched the whole video but im still a bit confused,should i enable hdr on ps5 if yes wich settings is the best for me? Game,desktop,cinema and should i change something in them or use default?
@@TotallydubbedHD Hi Sorry again, maybe i misunderstood u,but when i turn on HDR Is setted on game mode automatically and i cant disabile it,i thought u adviced me to don't enable any of cinema,game,desktop Or maybe u meant to use It only on compatibile games so basically enable only when compatibile? Sorry i Always played on TV i don't understand much about this world Edit: game Is hdri Cinema Is hdri Desktop Is HDR u meant that right?
@@mathertz1442 do not enable HDRi unless you have an actual HDR signal, in which case, it should be just listed as HDR or DisplayHDR. more info can be found here: th-cam.com/video/XHN-CT1wcl0/w-d-xo.html

@@TotallydubbedHD Hey man, sorry to bother you but the Samsung Odyssey G7 is also on sale and it has the same price tag as the BenQ, so I wanted to ask you, which one would you recommend for watching videos, movies, studying, and a bit of gaming, the BenQ or the G7?
Hi I don't know if you'll see this but I am wondering if the 27 inch BenQ mobius 1440p monitor is still worth getting or if there's a good alternative these days. I don't need the speakers and I do need two monitors. However it is very cheap on Amazon right now. Is the 250 nits (non HDR) good enough? Is it vibrant? Thanks
Hi there. Thanks for the video. I recently purchased the EX2710q for the PS5 and I cannot seem to get it to run 1440p @120hz. I feel like I've tried everything. Soon as I switch to warzone it goes to 1080 but suggests I switch to 1440p. 🤷🏼♂️ Do I need to use the display port? Thanks in advance
@@TotallydubbedHDso school boy error on my behalf, I use Astro A50s with the hdmi adapter connected. This can't run 1440p at 120hz. I removed this and was able to get the resolution and refresh rate. I also didn't realise that astro updated the firmware for the PS5 so all I needed to do to use the Astros without the adapter was just to run a usb cable.
@@TotallydubbedHD the only thing that concerns me is the brightness of 250 nits. Currently using another Mobiuz monitor with 350 nits. Will there be much difference?
@@TotallydubbedHD my current monitor has scaling issues with MacBook pro 14. The text is blurry. I am not sure which monitor would perform better. Could you recommend a 27 inch monitor under $450?
I have this monitor for ps5 and can’t get it to render 1440p at 120hz on mw22. It keeps switching off of 1440 to 1080 when I launch the game app.. & I’ve done all the ps5 settings.
~ Can someone help... I purchased this monitor and all I am havin is flickerin issues is some games not all,, I have tried nearly everything too fix this N nothings workin,, no reviews I have seen on TH-cam have mentioned this wiv this particular monitor... It's drivin me nuts,, it varies from game too game,, some old,, some new,, it's crazy,, I have replaced DP cable also...
@@Entroph08542 exactly my point . dp 1.4 is able to do more than 120hz in dell s2721dgf at 10 bit 1440p 165hz... stil it isnt doing the same in benq . whats the issue?
Thanks for the reply! For whatever reason(s) there are a few monitors that do not accept HDR+120hz and 1440p (for example Odyssey G7, which i was looking at at the first time). They only let you 4k60hz HDR downscaled to 1440p or 4k120hz downscaled without HDR.. Consoles are weird.
@@TotallydubbedHD I know, it's strange.. but, without HDR, would you take the EX2710Q for 300$ or the Odyssey G7 for 350? Both new, sealed, unused. Is the Odyssey 50$ better for Series X only? (I do have a PC, but 240fps is unachievable, maybe for CS:go)
@@robertferenczi2713 the Samsung gives you better bang for your buck, even if you can't fully utilise 240hz on PC, you will still have a more fluid experience, and given you mentioned CS, that'd be even better. One thing to consider, is that the Samsung also has HDR600 as opposed to HDR400 of the BenQ. But, if you can't get HDR to work properly with your Xbox, don't care about the Hz (again because of Xbox), then you shouldn't consider either, and just save yourself more money and buy the BenQ's predecessor, or the Acer Nitro - check the description
Thanks a lot for flagging, seems to be BenQ/Amazon changed its ASIN, and that's what was causing the problem in the UK and US. Now amended it, so it should all work. I appreciate the support, thank you :)
Hope these are good for a multi monitor setup! I was looking to try a multi curved monitor setup but I have limited space as my desk is against a wall and not sure if 2 curves together would just be too curvy
In that case would you be able to tell me what this monitor offers over the Samsung Odyssey G5 S27AG500NU 165hz please (299 on Amazon, will shortly be back in stock). I'm looking for a top notch 27" multi monitor (2 arms) setup for gaming/movies/work. Looking to spend around £350 per monitor. I've seen your G7 review not sure if you've reviewed the G5. Happy to use a link if you recommend the G5. I've tried 3 times to reply but I think TH-cam deletes the post if it contains a link.
Prices in tech always fluctuate, I presume it's because of its predecessor's availablity. But you snooze, you lose. Should have copped it when I mentioned it to you :)
@@TotallydubbedHD i watched your video over 10 times!!! amazing review. I just need the push to buy it. At £219 using for PS5 it has to be good value right?
This is such a downgrade from the EX2780Q because it removed the Type C port, and it isn't coming with a remote control. It seems like they are going backwards, smh. Also, if they added the option to have a crosshair in the gaming setting it would be nice.
Do NOT purchase this monitor!! I've had it for 1 month (Innolux panel), and the monitor just randomly exploded. I am taking legal actions towards BenQ... Luckily no injuries happened but this is simply unacceptable. I have had multiple monitors over the years without no problems whatsoever but this model of Benq (EX2710Q) happen to be poorly manufactured. I am disgusted by this.
@@imastexi2515 because we had a contract and the didn't fulfill it, scamming me of my money and time in the process. Need to work out if it'll be feasible to take them to court - I will no longer recommend or review any more of their products though.

@@madman5042 that's truly dependent on your ambient light conditions, as mentioned in the video!
Which one do you recommend, the EX2780Q or the EX2710Q, I was hooked on the first option but this one is really similar
Keep in mind that I don’t care for the stand issue for both of these monitors
Both monitors are the same price right now, at $350
Did you watch the video before commenting?
Whats the difference
The nits and brightness on one is more than the other, I just got the EX2780Q and it’s amazing, I recommend you get it.
1440p is just amazing, and the colors look perfect, especially it’s hdr
I would buy this monitor over looking a lot of videos about Va/ips and i think im gonna take it, compared to the curved version VA of this one for a ps5 is there many differences? Thanks

Will the PS5 outout 1440p at 120hz? You said ot would for Xbox, but i knkw the PS5 is slightly different when it comes to resolutions
It should do now, at the time Sony didn't support 1440p altogether
Do you thing is worth the 100$ more compared to the EX2780Q to be used for work and Xbox series S?

@@TotallydubbedHD Bought the BenQ one and it is amazing
@@gnex9212 glad you like it :)
This is a really good monitor if you get the one with the panel produced by LG. They switched the panel made by innolux midway through production and kept everything else the same. This newer panel has some real issues with color, some colors never really look correct despite calibrations and ICC profile settings. Seems like the LG panel gets brighter as well. I think this monitor used to retail for $600 and the original panel was sent to to all these reviewers, but the ones on sale for $250 are almost certainly an inferior product that do not align to the specs the reviews are based on
Interesting, didn't know they got switched out. That's bad.
@@TotallydubbedHD yeah it’s a pretty shady business practice. Luckily for me I was able to convince the company to replace mine with the LG panel. It took a lot of communication and time but was well worth it.
@@Blackmamba-ce3nb that's good to hear. And yeah I've seen it a few times with manufacturers, and really hate it for the reason you stated.
Is there any way to tell which you have? I was going to get one of these second hand
How can you tell it’s an original LG panel or not? I’d like to buy one, but are they selling them with the correct panel?
Hi i've watched the whole video but im still a bit confused,should i enable hdr on ps5 if yes wich settings is the best for me? Game,desktop,cinema and should i change something in them or use default?

I don't need the speakers and I do need two monitors. However it is very cheap on Amazon right now. Is the 250 nits (non HDR) good enough? Is it vibrant? Thanks
Yup!
Hi there.
Thanks for the video. I recently purchased the EX2710q for the PS5 and I cannot seem to get it to run 1440p @120hz. I feel like I've tried everything. Soon as I switch to warzone it goes to 1080 but suggests I switch to 1440p. 🤷🏼♂️
Do I need to use the display port?
Thanks in advance
@@esjcollins performance mode on PS5 maybe? I don't own a console, so best asking someone who does.
You can't use DP on consoles.
@@TotallydubbedHD Many thanks for the reply. I'll send BENQ an email. All the best for 2024.
@@TotallydubbedHDso school boy error on my behalf, I use Astro A50s with the hdmi adapter connected. This can't run 1440p at 120hz. I removed this and was able to get the resolution and refresh rate. I also didn't realise that astro updated the firmware for the PS5 so all I needed to do to use the Astros without the adapter was just to run a usb cable.
so as the PS5 is now supporting 1440p, would you take this one or the LG 27GP850-B?
Not tried the LG, so can't comment. But as per the review would recommend this

You need to be connected over DP with a 10 series card or above.
1. Is the Input lag at fps and srgb the same?
2. which mode has the best Input lag?
3. is hdri display or gaming impacting the input lag that much?
Mode would be irrelevant to input lag, so wouldn't worry about that
im confused with the contrast ratio some people get 1000 some get a bit more and some get less,
Depends on the equipment used to measure it.

Sony only recently started supporting 1440p. Maybe it might be because of HDR or VRR (tried disabling those?)

Thanks for the reply! For whatever reason(s) there are a few monitors that do not accept HDR+120hz and 1440p (for example Odyssey G7, which i was looking at at the first time). They only let you 4k60hz HDR downscaled to 1440p or 4k120hz downscaled without HDR.. Consoles are weird.
@@robertferenczi2713 that's odd, shouldn't be the case with that Samsung!
@@TotallydubbedHD I know, it's strange.. but, without HDR, would you take the EX2710Q for 300$ or the Odyssey G7 for 350? Both new, sealed, unused. Is the Odyssey 50$ better for Series X only? (I do have a PC, but 240fps is unachievable, maybe for CS:go)
@@robertferenczi2713 the Samsung gives you better bang for your buck, even if you can't fully utilise 240hz on PC, you will still have a more fluid experience, and given you mentioned CS, that'd be even better.
One thing to consider, is that the Samsung also has HDR600 as opposed to HDR400 of the BenQ. But, if you can't get HDR to work properly with your Xbox, don't care about the Hz (again because of Xbox), then you shouldn't consider either, and just save yourself more money and buy the BenQ's predecessor, or the Acer Nitro - check the description
Can you set hdr permanently on?
