I'm planning to buy this monitor and i think 24 inch 1080p is perfect for my requirements which wouldn't look as blurry as the 27 inch model with mac. Do the eye care features like blue light stuff gets disabled while using mbook mode? And what usb hub are you using. As a full stack developer i need a usb hub that can withstand 8 hours of workflows per day with this external monitor connected. Also wonder if you've ever faced battery drain issue with external monitor (without clamshell mode)
Thanks for the review. I've been looking to buy a new monitor for home use after doing a lot of research online I find this monitor best for budget, comparing to other monitors at this price range it's a steal deal
I would say 7, macbook has retina display this doesn’t but colour accuracy is good for the price. You can see the pixels but I think for the after 1-2 hours it would not even matter. You would understand how much relaxing it is to work on a big screen.
@@pratiktiwari9342 You are really a humble and awesome person. Being a person used 14 inch display laptop which is literally 12 year old for entire life till now. That's why questions are rising. Hope you got it.
for reading documentations and coding , would this be a good choice? and one more main question if i have a 60 htz laptop, will it run 100htz in monitor if i extend it. please answer
For documentation and coding. I think it will do the job but if you are looking to use the monitor in vertical setup then you have to look for some other model
dell monitors are expensive but they provide 5 years of premium warranty and they claim that if you got a single dead pixel we will going to replace the monitor or panel in 2-3 days. Note: if you buy from their exclusive website then you will get 5 years of warranty. cons with dell even if you are paying 10k for dell s2421hn its only comes with 75hz refresh rate that too bad for the price we are paying but after sales service is very good. and Benq after sales service is not that good lots of customers facing issue in their unit and the problem is that benq took so long time for the engineer visit, replacement. only one service centre in delhi with average reviews of 3 stars.
Dont Buy BenQ GW2490 🥵waste of money dont take it give lot of troubles(after 4days use only....yellow shadeon righside of monitor) service engineer come after 10day of service call log and he said this problem i report in job sheet but .no support benq im faceing replacement problem since june month till now no solution they asky silly qustions like {what is ur purpose ot this monitor} and deny replace ment you have call daily for your update
any update ? do you get any solution or replacement from benq. i am also considering this monitor for my laptop and my serious concern is after sales service because in delhi there is only one service center.
Bro eyecare is not working on my mac air m1? Your Mac computer with M1 chipset cannot sync with monitors via an HDMI input. Please connect via the Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) port to use BenQ Eye-CareU. one thing more need to get display settings pls provide me your social handle so that i can connect with you ?
See I haven't used the speakers in particular. But you would need to connect an external speaker for better audio. What I would suggest is test it out and if you don't find it the sound good enough just connect external speakers.
If you can wait a little more then wait for the EW2490 model, it is the same monitor but has much better speakers and powerful high-speed data transfer ports.
buy GW2480 INSTEAD, the older version of GW2490. I am using it for the past 2 years. Everything is the same except for the refresh rate from 60hz to 100hz, less power consumption, future-proof, more software support, and better speakers. if I were you, I would have purchased the newer model and got myself a VGA to HDMI port.
i am also searching monitor for my m1 air. similarly to you i am jumping between that 25K qt and this 1080 base models of BenQ. i literally convinced by 2k qt monitor because it has pivot mode for coders like me. but i read in some review that with the type C connection it charge the macbook but it also damage the type c port if we use it as power delivery. Hence i am skipping it. But now i am struggling between 24 and 27 inch base models. i am qurious to know why you had not gone for 27 inch because it just 11K. is there any trade off for that.
See if you are buying a FHD monitor go for 24inch because 27inch would more pixelated display. And especially for MacBooks 24inch FHD monitors give better ppi compared to 27inch
the monitor is v bad. the eye strain it gave me from using it for 30 mins made me return it. even at 0 brightness and ePaper mode the eye strain was so bad my eyes got watery. the hdmi cable is also not that good.
Bhai ek request hai, aap iska photo provide kar sakte ho black screen me full brightness par so that me bleeding issue dekh saku please sir. I would be a great help and I will also buy this from your affiliate link. Please sir. App image ka drive link de sakte ho
This is a FHD monitor and does not have bleeding issues. Generally bleeding issue happens in 2k or 4K more. But yeah if you really care about picture quality go for a higher resolution.
instead of ancer dongle, USB C to DisplayPort cable is better as it gives 100HZ this ancer dongle might be giving you just 30 or 60 HZ not more than it
you are only one person in youtube industry jisane is model ka video banaya hai. thank you so much.
Thank you
@@pratiktiwari9342 should i get for 27 inch monitor same specs
pratik ji we need more tech reviews from you ur just too good man
I will try my best
I was in search for review of this for a last few days......thank u so much...
I also faced the same problem and bought it anyway ...that's why I wanted to share this with everyone. Thank You
@@pratiktiwari9342Hey, would you recommend this monitor for Video editing?
Many Thanks, I have bought one after watching your video.
Glad I could help
Please make a video on text clarity , pixelated or not ?

thanks for video.
I have a question. do you notice top half of screen flashes white when changing color mode?
is that normal?
How are you getting 100hz with that anker dongle? It supports 4k 30hz means the output should be only 60hz in 1080p
Even I am confused between Benq GW2790QT and this one. Its 3 times expensive than this one.
Is it good for coding purpose?
Does this monitor - BenQ GW2490 23.8” 1080p FHD IPS Monitor| 100Hz -tilt vertically for 15 degree angle at least?
How is it working now ? any issues ?
I'm also considering to buy it
Pls tell
Brother BenQ zw2490T is height adjustable
Hope that helps
@Pratik Tiwari Black levels is good or like all ips glow ?
In comparison to macbook display how much would rate it on the scale of 10. 10 means absolutely similar and 1 extremely pixelated and faded off
I would say 7, macbook has retina display this doesn’t but colour accuracy is good for the price. You can see the pixels but I think for the after 1-2 hours it would not even matter. You would understand how much relaxing it is to work on a big screen.

I bought one after watching your video cheers 🥂
How is this monitor for photo and video editing? Please reply.
It has 99%sRGB, so it is a good choice for photo/video editing.
I bought this monitor i am trying to connect but i am facing blurry text issue scaling issue can someone help please
Some people says texts are blurry. Is it good ?
Thank you sir can you tell me which one should i buy lg 24ml600s or this one?
Both are good but if you are using MacBook go for this and one more thing this is 100hz and the latest in the market.
is there any text blurring issue? M2 Air user here
What is the height of the monitor with the stand?
This particular model is 24 inch, right?
Yes. For FHD this would be the right size to buy
for reading documentations and coding , would this be a good choice?
and one more main question if i have a 60 htz laptop, will it run 100htz in monitor if i extend it.
please answer
Yes, I think that would not be an issue
For documentation and coding. I think it will do the job but if you are looking to use the monitor in vertical setup then you have to look for some other model
Picture quality and sound quality kaisi hai?
Did you measure the sRGB percentage? it is said 99%, but is it above or below 99% in real measurement?
I don't know that

What about blurry text?
Super informative video. Is this monitor has audio output 3.5 jack? Tell about more features like, number of ports and other features.
It has 3.5mm jack 2 hdmi ports and one dp port
Yeah ports are limited but you can always buy a dongle in case you require more.

Hey how you have connected Mac with external monitor? Please share the link of the wire.
Through Anker dongle
Is this monitor support tilt size adjustment?
Yes
How to connect this monitor to a CPU which is having a VGA port only (no HDMI port available for my CPU). Please tell me.
You can use an adapter I guess
@@pratiktiwari9342 is there any difference between VGA to HDMI and HDMI to VGA adapters? Or both works the same?
buy GW2480 INSTEAD, the older version of GW2490. I am using it for the past 2 years. Everything is the same except for the refresh rate from 60hz to 100hz, less power consumption, future-proof, more software support, and better speakers.

Does it support HDCP 2.2 or 2.3 ?
