The new BenQ GW2486TC monitor is designed for prolonged work at the computer - for this purpose, the manufacturer has applied in it a number of technologies and modes to reduce eye strain. At the same time, it is suitable for undemanding gamers. The monitor has a 24-inch or 27-inch IPS  In Plane Switching (IPS) panels are an expensive option but they have excellent colour accuracy and far greater viewing angles then TN and VA panels (Not that we condone slouching while gaming). They are great for graphics design and photo editing. However, the only downside to IPS panels if that they can sometimes have a slower response time than TN panels. This is the only real problem if you’re a very competitive gamer or want to game in 3D. As of late “IPS” has become a big marketing word. Step into an Apple store and you would be hard pressed talking to someone that didn’t mention Apple’s “brand new IPS Displays!” In fact, Apple is probably one of the biggest marketers of this “new-found” technology. As a business person myself, this is when you have to tip your hat to Apple’s awesome marketing machine. Why? Well, because IPS is actually nothing new. In fact, this technology was originally invented in 1996 by Hitachi..screen with thin bezels on three sides and a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. It has a refresh rate of 100Hz. It is also claimed to be able to display 99% of the sRGB color space, and the display itself is covered with an anti-reflective coating.The proprietary Brightness Intelligence Gen 2 technology automatically adjusts the brightness of the display depending on the ambient light, thus reducing eye strain during prolonged use. The monitor has also been certified by TÜV Rheinland for low blue light and flicker. Several modes are available for additional eye protection, including e-paper simulation. Of the connectors, there's HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, USB Type-C With the continued success of the USB interface, there exists a need to adapt USB technology to serve newer computing platforms and devices as they trend toward smaller, thinner and lighter form-factors. Many of these newer platforms and devices are reaching a point where existing USB receptacles and plugs are inhibiting innovation, especially given the relatively large size and internal volume constraints of the Standard-A and Standard-B versions of USB connectors. (with 65W output power) and a pair of USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A. The monitor has built-in speakers and a noise-canceling microphone for making calls.The 24-inch screen version costs around $170, while the 27-inch model costs $220. The monitor is already on sale in India. |
