Just bought my second one. I got the first one a year and a half ago (before the Zowie branding, still same model number etc) and have never had any issues. 2 HDMI ports are perfect for running my PS4 and Switch. The picture out of the box isn't fantastic, but once I set the mode to Gaming and tweaked the settings some, it's phenomenal. I'll list my settings below. Running my bose desktop speakers from the audio jack in the monitor sounds amazing. I can't recommend this monitor enough.
Picture mode: Gaming 1
Sharpness: 5
Color: User Specified: Red-95 Green-95 Blue-100
Brightness: 60
Contrast: 50
Color Range: 0-255 (be sure to set your color mode to full on your system/console!)
This is my first gaming monitor purchase and I love it.
The screen quality and texture display is unmatched on this monitor compared to my TV and it was brand new. At first I was only playing my FPS on it since it has the 1ms pixel refresh but then I started playing all my games on it and they just look so much better. Would recommend to anyone who plays games.
I have mine on an entertainment center but will be buying a desk for it soon as the only drawback is the monitor is smaller than I'm used to and my chair sits higher than the monitor and it isn't comfortable looking down at it. It's also an adjustment playing on something that small compared to a big TV but after a while you get used to it and will be in love with the monitor as I am.
Good monitor, came secured well in the box. struggled a bit to set it up but at the end its a good monitor. the 24 inch was bigger than I expected so beware for if you want a big or not so big monitor. i come from a dell monitor so i can really see differences fast. overall good monitor and worth its price. thank you benq !
I bought this for my son for Xmas and he is totally thrilled with it. I did a lot of research before buying it to go with his XBox One X and this was about the only true gaming monitor that was affordable for me. The best part is that the quality is excellent and it performs like a much more expensive gaming monitor (according to my son). I couldn't be happier with this purchase. It's one of the best gifts I have bought.
Easy to set up upon arriving. Can't say anything bad about this monitor.
I played fortnite, cod, monster hunter world, rocket league, and madden on this so far and all look great on this monitor. Play great on it also.
Happy customer.

This is a game changer from playing on a vizio TV to this its night and day everything looks more crisp so easy to spot enemies but the way the game feels on this responsive and smooth. If you play cod and have died feeling like you shot first this might fix that if its not internet lag. Everytime i die in cod now it actually feels like thats what happened and i dont rage thinking this game is bs also my game has improved i have always been a good player but this helped me be more consistent.
The screen is good. It has nice color. There are plenty of settings to change things if you want. Since its matte there isn't much glare. I thought 24 inches would be a bit small but its actually a good size. I travel a ton avid I've taken it with me many times and even through all the stuff i put it through it hasn't had any problems. The speakers arent good but they work if you've got nothing else. It is annoying going through all the menus sometimes. All in all its very good for the price and im happy with my purchase
I bought this to replace the big screen projector TV. I wanted a smaller footprint, which this more than accommodates. I wanted something that would guarantee I was getting the best performance for the games I play (mostly FPSs), and this is fantastic for a console plebeian such as myself. Now, I didn't buy it for the stellar dolby surround sound movie theater experience... but this sound quality is awful. For example, the game Destiny has not only an incredible soundtrack, but even better sound design. The guns and explosions and ship noises are all incredibly top notch. This tv makes it so its better playing with no sound. Seriously, its that bad. The equivalent is those complementary headphones airlines will give you to watch a movie. It sounds like someone is cheese grating aluminum cans through distorted speaker cabinet right next to your ear. Now there is external speaker connections, so its not really an issue. But do not buy this if you want an all in one image and sound device. Otherwise, its main purpose (competitive gaming response time and image) its a home run. I recommend it for that alone. But for the love of all that is holy, leave the volume knob alone.
My son used an older Dell monitor for years, but he had a few bad pixels, and he wanted a new monitor so that he could have two - one for leaving at the house, and a second one for taking out to gaming events with friends. Initially I had gotten him another monitor that had issues with ghosting (or something or other along those lines) so I sent it back, did some more research, and got this one.
He has been absolutely thrilled with it from a performance perspective. His only complaint is that unlike his other monitor, it doesn't break down or pack up very easily, but since he has his other backup monitor for that purpose, it's a non-issue for him.
5 stars because I only paid $150 and I think it's worth it. I play FPS games mostly and the monitor performs well. Zero lag for sure. Idk who these whiny people are that are complaining about the color. It's good enough. If you want a $200 panel to perform like a $400 panel, that's your problem. I'm a console peasant with a $150 monitor, so if you're looking for the best monitor ever, I'm sure it's more expensive than this. And if you're wondering whether 24" is big enough, it is. It's actually better to have a smaller screen while playing shooters competitively. Less real estate to keep track of.
