BenQ, the global leading innovator of displays and digital lifestyle devices, today unveiled the GW2790QT and GW3290QT, 27- and 32-inch 2K QHD monitors designed for maximum efficiency for any task and easy switching between devices and work activities.
GW90 Series Eye-care monitors feature eyecare technology, ergonomic design, USB-C data transfer, charging plus an integrated USB-hub connection, as well as a unique coding mode to enhance the efficiency of programming work and visual comfort.
With over 9 in 10 employers in Singapore allowing flexible work arrangements, the nation has been labeled as one of the “strongest champions” of hybrid work.
In the new era of workplace flexibility, BenQ seeks to provide hybrid employees and desk workers with a comfortable and productive setup to improve the work-from-home experience.
“GW90 Series monitors help personalize modern hybrid-working lifestyles,” said Conway Lee, President of BenQ Corporation. “Their USB-C architecture simplifies multitasking productivity in traditional workspaces, at home, or even on the go. Software developers can benefit from specialized coding modes to ensure eye comfort and enhance work efficiency. Additionally, the GW90 series facilitates remote collaboration with noise-canceling communication and promoting holistic well-being via eye-care and fun aesthetic functionality.”
In exclusive coding mode, users can see increased productivity of programming work and visual comfort by optimizing the contrast and saturation of dark mode. With distinguishable shades of color, coding mode can support software developers to focus more on work and relieve eye strain in the workspace or dime surroundings.
Starting from the previous version of the GW85TC series, the coding mode has been well-received on Amazon and e-commerce platforms. Users have left numerous positive comments on coding mode, saying it reduces symptoms of eye strain and supports work for long hours.
Pioneering BenQ Eye-Care innovations including TUV Rheinland-certified Flicker-Free and Low Blue Light Technologies and Brightness Intelligence Gen2, which adds customizable settings to auto-optimization of screen brightness. The color weakness mode compensation and simulated e-paper reading mode are also easily navigated with BenQ Eye-CareU software for convenient and prolonged vision health protection.
Further promoting work-life balance and well-being, GW2790QT and GW3290QT provide height adjustability and pivot rotation to arrange vertical screen viewing for easy coding and multiple daisy-chained monitors in comfortable productivity-enhancing orientations.
Equipped with USB-C connection for data and video transmission and up to 65 watts of power delivery for charging laptops and phones, GW2790QT and GW3290QT monitors provide an integrated USB hub and comprehensive HDMI, DisplayPort, USB, and audio ports for fast switching between peripherals and smart devices. Integrated Noise Filter Speakers and Noise Cancellation Microphone ensure crystal-clear remote conferencing for added versatility and productivity.
