RD280UA (24" WQXGA 16:10)

I'm a full time software developer. I was using a 25" 1440p Dell (nice, but discontinued) and needed to get a second monitor for another location. I initially picked 25" over 27" on purpose, having read Nick Janetakis's article on the ideal screen size for developers (long, but worth a read). I find text on a 24" to be just as legible as my 16:9 25", but appreciate the extra height of 16:10. I also prefer the colours and contrast on the BenQ, and its ability to adjust itself to the ambient lighting conditions is superb. So in all respects, I prefer this BenQ to my Dell. I'm still using the Dell, but on a different desk. No need to buy stuff we don't need, right? I was also 28" curious, and did try the 28" version. It's got a very nice image, but (as a tiling window manager user) I found that I was turning my head left and right a lot, and rarely looking at things in front of me. It's tall too, so a lot of stuff I'd need to read would be near desk level, which has a fairly negative impact on my posture. Conclusion: I'm far better off when my windows (which fill my screen) are on a display whose edges aren't so difficult for me to see. This is also why I prefer a single screen. I usually put code on one workspace, documentation on another, and switch between them with a keystroke more quickly than I could turn my head to look at another screen. Occasionally I need docs and code side by side, in which case I'll put a browser next to my editor. That works great too. Often I'm working on an app, and will put the app's UI next to the editor so I can see the impact of my changes in real time. Also great. And if I need to see two different files, they're visible side by side in a full screen editor. End result: I'm pretty confident I've got the best monitor on the market for tiling window manager users who don't want to be turning their head a lot, looking up/down too much, etc. Also, on looking up/down, beware a monitor that's so tall that you need to read things above eye level. It requires your eye to be wider open than normal, which increases the rate at which the lens dries out. Combined with our tendency not to blink when looking at a screen, this can increase your chances of getting dry eye disease. I'm now an eye drop user, and I think it's because I used to position a monitor a bit high. So that's another reason not to get a bigger one.

hem 3D model hemde yazılım işiyle uğraşıyorum. 2 sis için en uygun monitör bu. Önce 28 inç 4k aldım ancak çözünürlüklerde sorun yaşadım baş ağrıları başladı. Bu monitör gerçekten en boy ve çözünürlük olarak ieal bir monitör. Keşke Halo aydınlatması da olsaydı. 28 olanda vardı.

La verdad es que se ve bien. Tiene varios modos, al final lo configuras el primer día y no lo vuelves a tocar. El añadido de pantalla verticalmente realmente, no se usa, miras más al centro. Los de 27" se me hacen demasiado grandes, es como que hay que mover la cabeza o la vista para mirar. Creo que para trabajar es más cómodo 24".

Je ne suis pas totalement satisfait. J’ai pris un 24 pouces avec une résolution native de 2560 x 1600, que je trouve déjà trop petite. Certes, on peut afficher plus de code à l’écran, mais tout devient minuscule. Il y a bien une option de mise à l’échelle, mais on perd alors tout l’intérêt mis en avant ici ou sur d'autres chaînes. J’aurais pu opter pour le 32 pouces, mais avec ses 3840 pixels, le problème reste le même. À mon avis, BenQ aurait dû proposer un écran dédié aux développeurs avec une résolution plus raisonnable, comme un 32 pouces en 2560 px. Autre point décevant : le 24 pouces n’a pas l’éclairage Halo, ce qui, vu le prix, est regrettable. Pour le reste, je ne le trouve pas spécialement plus confortable, juste légèrement mieux. Par exemple, l’adaptation automatique à la lumière ambiante est difficile à comprendre. Quant au mode sombre ou clair pour le code, je ne vois pas de réelle différence ni de valeur ajoutée.

Solid, but not blown away. Pros: good size, matte display, built-in options for different display modes for different lighting and work, which can even adjust automatically. Cons: speakers are pretty bad, missing a lot of the features that you get with the RD280 and RD320, namely moonhalo, nano matte display, KVM switch. Will be continuing to test and may report back.
