4K UHD High Resolution

4K UHD (3840x2160) resolution offers extraordinary clarity for fine details and depth of subtle textures optimized for visually intensive work in animation, visual effects, graphics, and photos.

Devoted to meet the latest professional color standard, BenQ has developed AQCOLOR technology to uphold the concept: “Accurate Reproduction". BenQ has invited a color expert to lead the team, and also joined ICC (International Color Consortium) and ISO (International Standard Organization) to establish color-related standards and implementation.

Reference-Grade Color Performance with 10-Bit , 100% sRGB and Rec. 709

Covering 100% of sRGB and Rec. 709 color spaces, PD2700U’s advanced IPS wide viewing angle technology minimizes color shift to inspire absolute design confidence. 100% sRGB color gamut accuracy adheres to industry standards in digital production, and Rec. 709 reproduces accurate resolution, frame rate, color gamut, gamma, and white point performance in high-definition video work.

Professionally Factory-Calibrated for Supreme Color Accuracy

Each BenQ Designer Monitor is individually factory-calibrated upon production to assure precise Delta-E and Gamma performance. Calibration results are validated against industry color standards to deliver the truest and most representative view of original content.

Inspiring Designs through 4K UHD Monitors with HDR10(ST2084) Support

BenQ’s DesignVue PD2700U is equipped with HDR10 technology to let designers preview video content’s HDR effect during the editing process, ensuring desirable outcomes for their final works.

CAD/CAM Mode

Offering superior contrast for lines and shapes in technical illustrations, CAD/CAM mode accentuates the finest details to produce incredible display performance in Pro/E, SOLIDWORKS, AutoCAD, CATIA, or other design software.

Animation Mode

Often problematic for designers working with intricate details in dark images, Animation mode enhances the brightness of dark areas without overexposing bright regions. Animation mode provides 10 levels of display brightness to bring out every subtlety clearly in any ambient lighting.

Darkroom Mode

Adjusting image brightness and contrast for superb clarity and sharp details, Darkroom mode creates the optimal setting for work in darkened post-processing environments.

Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) Switch

KVM Switch function allows users to display and control content from two different PC systems on one screen using just one set of keyboard and mouse to save space and boost work efficiency.

A Daisy-chain Configuration for Greater Productivity

The BenQ PD2700U is a daisy-chaining enabled display equipped with multi-stream transport technology (MST,) allowing you to extend your notebook’s screen across several displays using DisplayPort output for a multiple monitor setup. You can appreciate the boundless views from PD2700U’s edge to edge design with minimal bezels on all four sides.

DualView Mode

Improve your workflow and enhance productivity by switching on DualView to showcase designs in two modes (e.g. sRGB and CAD/CAM) side-by-side without the need for two screens.

Industry-Leading Eye-Care Technology

BenQ’s exclusive eye-care technologies reduce eye fatigue for user comfort, enhanced productivity, and workplace safety during extended use.

Eliminate Eye Strain in Any Ambient Light

Brightness Intelligence Technology (B.I.Tech.) monitors ambient light in your viewing environment and actively adjusts screen brightness for the most comfortable viewing experience possible.

Low Blue Light Technology

Unique BenQ Low Blue Light Technology is designed to filter out harmful blue light, effectively diminishing eye fatigue and irritation.

Flicker-free

Flicker-free eliminates flickering at all brightness levels and reduces eye fatigue effectively. Conventional LCD screens flicker at the rate of 250 times per second. Your eyes may not see the flickers but they can certainly feel them. So relieve your eyes from the uncomfortable flickering effect by switching to a BenQ flicker-free monitor.
