Benq ex2780q offers speakers, 144 hz, freesync and a curious hdri

BenQ announced to the market the EX2780Q gaming monitor, which has a 27-inch screen with IPS technology , FreeSync and a curious term called HDRi.

BenQ EX2780Q adds a curious HDRi tag, a kind of emulated HDR

HDRi is a kind of emulated HDR mode, just like 1080i resolution existed in its time for televisions that emulated 1080p resolution, but interlaced. The monitor itself is offering around 350 nits of brightness, far from the standards for a HDR monitor or television.

BenQ EX2780Q has WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution in 16: 9 format, as well as superior sound quality and numerous connection options, including USB-C connection.

The EX2780Q monitor is suitable for a whole range of console video games and ensures smooth movements. The viewing angle is about 178 ° and covers 95% of the DCI-P3 color space. The monitor operates with a 144Hz refresh rate and built-in AMD FreeSync technology, ensuring smooth, tearing-free gameplay at all times. The only thing that could tarnish this set is the use of the HDRi label, quite questionable that could cause confusion for buyers, since the screen does not have enough brightness (350 nits) to achieve a decent HDR if you want.

There are several special image modes available on the EX2780Q, such as: Visual Edge - for enhanced visual effects, Black eQualizer - to lighten darker areas of the image, or Color Vibrance to fine-tune color intensity and adapt the image to the specific needs of different types of games.
