Very good quality
Working as a programmer, I constantly had headaches before due to the eye fatigue. Then this "eye-care" monitor caught my attention, I just wanted to try and see whether it works, if not I will return. It indeed helped my eye problem.
I tried many monitors at work, cheap and expensive ones, to find one that will help my symptoms, I found a few, but the price is either very high or many of them require a better computing setup to utilize their full potentials. For example, the best one I used is Dell 4K ISP, but it cost over $500 (2018) and it's on sale. Other brands are good, but I slowly realize it's just a brand many of them use the same manufactory. So the price is basically depending on how popular the brand is.
BenQ is not a very familiar brand in the US, but I used to have a BenQ laptop I really like, so I had a very positive feeling about this brand. At the moment of purchase, I had about 3 options: this monitor, a Dell one, and an Acer one. I had an Acer monitor before and it's bad, it looks really nice, but when you used it, you will know it's "cheap". Back in 2015 the Acer monitor costed about the same price as this one, not worth it. Dell one was more expensive, about $400 dollars and 4K, however, I know 4K monitor normally requires a better setup, I had a mac mini (last generation) at home, it doesn't support 4K, why bother to spend so much for that.
This monitor is as it described on its amazon page. I just got it about a few days, and after a day of work, and then use this monitor at home, I didn't develop the headaches i used to have. Hope it's a durable one also.
