BenQ EW277HDR 27"
The EW277HDR is a solid monitor with great color quality and the OSD menu is clear and simple to navigate. It is overpriced at $270 and I really think this monitor should not cost more than $200. At $270, you can find monitors on the market that come with a 2K resolution and also have an IPS display. Overall, the BenQ EW277HDR deserves our recommended award.

The BenQ EW277HDR can be purchased from BenQ official store on Lazada at the price of RM1,079, it’s somewhat pricey compared to most 27 inch monitors. In case you’re considering making a jump to an entry level HDR monitor – since true HDR monitor will cost 3 to 4 times more than this price, then the BenQ EW277HDR is yours to consider for. Otherwise, just go for the non-HDR BenQ EW2775ZH that comes with similar features and cost RM300 less.

HDR is usually a feature you'd find on newer TVs nowadays, but that technology is also now making its way to desktop monitors. BenQ's latest, the EW277HDR, delivers HDR compatibility with impressive colors and brightness.

All in all, my experience with the BenQ Ew277HDR has been nothing short of amazing. Sadly, like many of my relationships, my time with the monitor came to an unfortunate end. I will probably never see it again, unless I start stalking it on other websites until I make the impulsive decision to splurge and get my hands on it again.

BenQ’s 27-inch EW277HDR monitor is a sleekly designed, decent performer of a monitor that represents an affordable starting point for those looking to get in on the HDR bandwagon

The BenQ EW277HDR is a 27-inch high dynamic range monitor that displays colors and blacks well, but comes up short with HDR performance.

There are quirks like the lack of VESA mounting, but these exclusions are expected for a monitor at this price range. If you are looking for an affordable display to dabble in watching or gaming in HDR, the BenQ EW277HDR is an easy to own option.

Looking past the headline features and the shiny copper-coloured button that allows quick access to them, this monitor provides strong all-round performance with pleasing contrast and vibrant but not gaudy colour output.

To take full advantage of what HDR10 has to offer, you’ll need to either put a 55” Vizio (or an LG OLED if you’re well-funded) on your desk or spend a lot of money on a multi-zone backlight monitor. For under $300 though, you can enjoy BenQ’s EW277HDR. If you’d rather not wait for prices to come down on professional-grade computer monitors, this one offers superb color accuracy and reasonable HDR today. It may not be compatible with every source device so check your gear before buying. But at this price point, it’s hard to beat.

Sofern man aber auf Ergonomiefunktionen verzichten und mit der – in Verbindung mit der Display-Größe – etwas mageren Auflösung leben kann, ist der BenQ EW277HDR angesichts seines auch noch extrem guten Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnisses ein echter Knüller.

El BenQ EW277HDR que hemos analizado en el día de hoy tiene un precio recomendado de 249 euros, aunque en algunas tiendas online lo hemos visto ahora mismo a poco más de 240 euros. Por un monitor Full HD de 27 pulgadas puede parecer un precio demasiado caro, pero sinceramente en comparación con otros modelos, pagar un sobreprecio de unos 60 euros por contar con HDR y con todas las tecnologías de protección de la vista con las que cuenta no me parece para nada descabellado, y encima en un monitor bastante ligero y a la vez robusto.
