Product details
Professional 27-inch graphic and design monitor with IPS panel. The BenQ PD2705Q is an excellent choice for professional users in the graphic, CAD, and creative fields. It delivers very high color accuracy with Rec.709 standard and 100% sRGB color space coverage. Utilize one of the four display modes (Darkroom, CAD/CAM, Animation, M-book) to highlight specific image details and facilitate editing, visualizing, and creating.
Enhanced capabilities with Display Pilot software. The Display Pilot software offers additional interesting features: for example, you can partition the desktop to display software content in any proportions. With DualView, you also have the option to use different display modes in each partition.
Maximum ergonomics. The ergonomic stand provides great flexibility in monitor positioning: adjust it in height, swivel it left and right, or tilt it up and down. The most comfortable monitor orientation for any task is just a hand's reach away. With the VESA mount interface, you also have the option to mount the monitor directly on a wall or use it with specialized brackets.
Wide range of interfaces. With one DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.0 ports, the PD2705Q utilizes the latest digital standards. Another highlight is the USB-C port: when connected to a compatible laptop, it serves as a convenient all-in-one solution for transmitting video signals, data, and power. A USB hub provides connection options for peripherals or external storage devices within easy reach. Thanks to the KVM switch function, you can also control two computers with the same mouse and keyboard.

Overall ratingVery good86/100
Good77/100
