In addition, 8-bit color depth, 350 cd/m² typical brightness, 5 ms response time (grey to gray), and a 1000:1 contrast ratio are promised. This new Benq stylish monitor also has two internal 2-watt speakers and a noise-canceling microphone.

On the interface side, HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2 (input and output; daisy chain capable), a USB 3.2 hub, a headphone output, and USB-C with DisplayPort alternate mode and 65-watt PD can be used.
