Is the PD2705U the previous model of the PD2706U or is there any other difference? Because on BenQ website Europe they both are same price which does not make sense to me🤨 Nice review btw!
PD2705U has 65W power delivery over USB-C. PD2706U - 90W. If u have 16 inch Macbook Pro then PD2706U is better choice. For Macbook Air it doesn't make difference. PD2706U has also better brighness level: 350-400 (in HDR mode) while PD2705U - 250-350 nits. Comparing to most Mac native screens that usually have 500+ nits PD2706U screen is closer and better.
How are the viewing angles when tilted back? Thinking about getting this monitor to put below my Ultrawide for color grading in Davinci Resolve. It'll be tilted about 45-Degrees.
Thankyou for the review! Is the USBC cable provided in the box facilitate both Power Delivery (upto 90 W) and data transfer (4k videos) please? The spec sheet does not clearly mention this.
@@ghtechreview Thanks for clarifying that. The Benq website does make it look like its a Mac only monitor. I use PC but I do have both Ipad and Samsung Tablet, Galaxy Tab I think they are called.
Hey bro, im planning to buy this monitor for video editing but i watched some videos in which people talked about 'dont buy 27inch 4k monitor icons are so small everything looking so small you facing scaling issues' this is really true can you tell me if i buy this monitor i can use editing softwares smoothly without any problem.
How different is this to the PD2705U ? I understand this looks slightly different and also comes with the ergo arm. Is this worth the extra £100? are there any other spec differences?
It looks like a quality ergo arm, especially the way the cable management was done. Whether its worth it depends a lot on your budget, for me personally, if the "arms" on the monitor arm are decent length then yes as I think a quality monitor is with £100+.
Good review. Chapters and presentation are good. The sound speaker test is not really.. well necessary imo, because the speakers are recorded with your microphone, then encoded for RUclips video, RUclips itself compresses the signal even more and processes it differently than it will be heard on the other end. It works, ok. But your pronunciation is hard to understand. You are fast rolling the words together, without proper separation/distinction, so that it is perceived as mumbling. It's already difficult to follow fast talking people, when they are speaking clearly, but even harder, when their pronunciation is not the clearest. That rushing style is experienced as if you were nervous and takes away from your otherwise good outlined presentation. Yes, I read your comment, that you said that you were sick and had a nasal voice. But, at least for me, it was even with the no-nasal-voice hard to understand at times. Maybe slow down, just a little bit, especially when you are sick. I don't want you to slow down endlessly, to go super-slow-mo like some others do, and I can be impatient too, or fast talking too, so I can relate to you. And I am not a native English speaker either, so I have my accent too. Accents are natural and gives your speech your own flavour. Don't lose your personality. Please take this as constructive criticism and don't take this personal. It was a helpful video. Good luck with your RUclips-career and everything else :)! ¡Saludos de Alemania!

@ghtechreview, what happened to the Samsung S8 27" Monitor from 3 years ago? was it good?
when connected to a Mac, are the fonts blurry or clear like on a MacBook screen?

Thats an answer I would like to know too.
it's beautiful but honestly on 4k you have to increase everything its so tiny
Yeah that is pretty much the case on 4K monitors. You pretty much have to have it at 200% scale.
@@ghtechreview personally i use 125% scale. But whatever suits you, its a simple setting to change and you get all the image quality benefits to 4k
I was a bit confused as as to whether this model was also compatible with a Windows PC or if it was only for Mac. Anyone know?
This can be used with both a Mac and PC. It's just has a feature for Mac's where it matches color profile of the MacBook display.

Hi, can I plug a ssd directly on the monitor, and use with the single cable?

How is it working? Are there any ips that glow in the dark with black background?
So far I have not noticed any IPS glow.
Can we use 4k @60hz with single usb C cable

Not sure that 27" inch is large enough. Would I get any benefits by buying a 32"?
Larger tends to be more emersive and I find the 32 inches is handy if I want to have two windows side by side.
Is there any specific difference between pd2705ua and pd2706ua ?
They are identical. Besides the price difference, with the Pd2705ua you will not get DCI P3 support and you will get 65W power delivery instead of 90W
@@ghtechreview for normal content consumption and coding, i think it will be fine, I am thinking of going with the 32 inch one
I would point out, compared to the Asus ProArt monitors, this monitor is a bargain.
scalling issue ?
No, I use 125% its a simple setting to change and you get all the image quality benefits to 4k
