BenQ MOBIUZ EX2510S Gaming Monitor (24.5 inch, IPS, 165 Hz, 1ms, HDR, FreeSync Premium, 144 Hz compatible)

The high refresh rate and quick response time make gameplay incredibly smooth, with no noticeable ghosting or lag. Colors look great, and the HDRi feature helps enhance details without making things look overdone. The built-in speakers are better than most, and the small woofer adds some depth to the sound, though for serious gaming, a headset is still the way to go. Adjustability is a nice touch, making it comfortable for long sessions. Overall, a solid choice for both gaming and general use.

I'm going to be comparing this to my old main monitor the BenQ ZOWIE XL2411K.First of all I am not a monitor enthusiast by any means, this is going to be a review from a gamers stand point which plays games such as Valorant, Overwatch 2, and Fortnite.Now first of all the refresh rate, the size, IPs and resolution, and the panel all in all are fantastic, the only downside I have encountered is possible flickering which usually goes away. Now going from a TN panel to a IPS panel was a eye opener for me as the colours were so much crisper and clearer and this is one large selling factor for this monitor, in addition for the price it was relatively cheap at the time to its competitors and its older Benq monitors while still be at a higher refresh rate. The monitor was keeping up with the fps output of my pc in all game specified earlier which is abut 450-550 fps. Now I personally capped it at 165hz but to be honest its all personal preference as this monitor was easily keeping up and the smoothness comparison was easily seen comparing to the BenQ ZOWIE XL2411K which was a bit blurry.Aesthetically this monitor I must day is outstanding, I personally like keeping my gaming/ work setup clean so straight cut corners like on this monitor stand were a really nice touch and the bezel being extra thin gives the impression of there not being one.Included in the package, alongside the monitor, are:A monitor stand that facilitates vertical and horizontal adjustments, with a limited range of left-to-right turning and tilting. It's worth noting that the provided mount doesn't support rotating the monitor from landscape to portrait orientation.An HDMI cableA DisplayPort cableA USB cableThe speakers, despite their compact size and being housed in a small unit, deliver impressive audio performance. While they may not match the quality of a high-end sound bar or sound system, they are certainly more than sufficient and quite usable.Now to sum it up I cant give this monitor a 10/10 because of my personal experience with the flickering (which has only happened with this monitor) but since it isn't that often that it happens and its barely noticeable I would give it a 9/10 for how good it is at sufficing its job.

I've just opened my new EX2510. Here's my immediate review of this monitor compared to the Viewsonic XG2405 (which I received a week ago).Colour out of the box: Noticeably more realistic, whites are white (for example). The Viewsonic looks a bit sickly and I couldn't fix it.Sharpness: They have it spot on here. The Viewsonic however was not sharp at normal settings (I was constantly thinking I'd have to get a new set of glasses) and too sharp at the next sharpness setting up (note that Benq doesn't have a sharpness setting), although text was then more readable.Youtube/Video performance: Sharp and well coloured. Colours and detail on the reviewers face in this video when viewed with the Viewsonic looked slightly strange, slightly smeared together, cartoon like. I know there's a term for it but can't think of it right now.Viewing angles: MUCH better on the Benq, I can look to either end of the screen and not see any light fall off. The Viewsonic did not do this, even though when i looked at the edges of the screen straight on they looked fine. Perhaps it was the screen anti-glare coating, or just poor angles.White Uniformity: Noticeably better here. On the Viewsonic there was a definite bright area immediately noticable in the central area of the screen.UFO test (naked eye only): Possibly slightly better on the Viewsonic, less smearing, but marginal.Audio: WAY WAY WAY better on the Benq. Bloomin' brilliant actually for a montor speaker. I'm more than happy here.Menu system: Benq is much MUCH more intuitive with less buttons and a joystick. The Viewsonic has five buttons round the back which you have to put all five fingers on to make sure you're pressing the right one and I still get it wrong.Monitor stand depth: 22cm on the BENQ, 24cm on the Viewsonic. Note that the BENQ and Viewsonic screens sit the same distance from your face due to stand design. They both sit at 20cm from the back of the desk.Stand quality: Both are bombproof with the Viewsonic being slightly more so. I have no issues with either. The Viewsonic wins on the fact it's a flat base so I can lay things on it. Not a deal breaker. The Viewsonic is noticeably more heavy, not a negative as it adds to the sturdy feel especially if you rotate the screen regularly. The Benq doesn't allow you to rotate the screen. Not a problem for me.Screen Size: The Benq is slightly bigger and feels like it's has a greater aspect ratio than 16:9, closer to 16:10, which I'm sure isn't correct but I like it nontheless!Looks: The Benq looks more fun and the Viewsonic business like. Both look great imho.There you go! Happy to answer any comments.*Please note* I have always disliked Benq monitors (used some at work 7 years ago and hated them, hurt my eyes) and have used a Viewsonic at home since 2013 which I like, so please consider this a completely unbiased review.

I was after a monitor for my PC and PS5. The Benq seemed perfect with 1440p, high framerates, low latency and advertised vrr support for PS5. First of all VRR does not work on PS5, misleading advertisements don't help. In built speakers are a step above most but I much prefer my Creative T10's which have far superior sound quality and are good value. Picture quality is superb, the simulated her settings look good with deep blacks, piercing highlights and colours which pop. I heard potential issues about the monitor brightness being low but I really didn't find this at all. The stand is limited with not much height adjustment or swivel but it does the job, cable management is neat and tidy. Overall I'm really pleased with the picture quality and it looks super smart.I bought a used as new from Amazon, unfortunately the screen was cracked on the corner. Returning it was easy enough but disappointed as it was advertised as like new. I would only trust buying new rather than rolling the dice for a used like new.
