Update: Having the dreaded flicker issue on replacement unit
It's a great monitor that came almost entirely accurately calibrated out of the box according to my Spyder5. I was between this and the Asus 32" equivalent which is $100+ more and I don't regret the purchase at all. It's beautiful and crisp with deep blacks. The build quality is on par with the Dell monitors with a similar stand attachment mechanism. Between the quality, the apparently very attentive BenQ customer support (Taiwanese are the nicest people!) and 3 year warranty, you can't go wrong with this monitor.
EDIT: After a few months with this unit it is exhibiting the flicker-to-black issue that many are writing about in the critical reviews. I had the monitor replaced by BenQ but the issue is still there! I've tried on two different computers and the issue is consistent. I will be speaking with BenQ support for another RMA replacement, but this is getting ridiculous.
2nd Update: Unbelievable. The flicker problem is endemic across all units relating to faulty design of the panel. BenQ is knowingly selling faulty units and replacing them with equally faulty ones. Absolutely ridiculous. I will be returning this monitor and buying a different brand.
