1. Text Sharpness - Text sharpness was one of the biggest reason I went with 4k resolution. With 4k resolution at 32", the pixel density (ppi) comes at 139 which is enough to not make this monitor inferior to the macBook display (ppi=227) when it comes to text sharpness. I had a 27" 1440p monitor (ppi=109) before and I always hated the fuzzy text it produced.
2. Good contrast, especially with black background - Because of VA panel this has a very good contrast that helps with black backgrounds. On top of that, HDR mode (even though its not a true HDR) enhances the contrast and the colorful texts in intelliJ (Dracula theme with full black background) and Terminal look gorgeous.
3. More real state (especially height) - I feel either 27" or ultrawide 34" monitors have slightly less height than my liking. 32" nails it. Ultrawide 38" will do as well, but I am yet to see a good value 4k ultrawide 38".
The auto brightness adjustment seems to work well so far and proved to be a bonus, that I quite like. No need to adjust the brightness manually anymore. This monitor is also flicker free which is supposed to be good for my eyes, but I am not sure I will be able to tell the difference from my previous monitor. No observable light bleed, no significant color fading and given that I only use it for work I did not bother the not so great viewing angles that VA panels usually have and some other reviewers have complained about.
Out of the box settings for this monitor is great and I do not think I had to change too many settings. I did have to scale this display in the macBook 'System Preferences -> Display' settings in favor of the larger texts because with 4k resolution your texts would look too small and given that my monitor is at least 2 ft from my eyes I had to select a 'Less Space & Larger Text' option - https://www.macobserver.com/tips/how-to/4k-monitor-retina-mode/
Only downside for me is not so adjustable stand that comes with it but it does have VESA mount that you can make use of if you really want it to be adjustable. For me the height of this monitor was low and I remedied this by putting couple of books underneath it.
Overall a very good 4k 32" monitor and I am quite happy with my purchase.

If you're looking for a cheap, large 4k psuedo-TV/multitasking screen/content creation tool then I'd say that the BenQ EW3270U is a viable option. If you prioritize eye care and are serious about cutting down your blue light intake, then I would recommend this display as it has many options for you.
However, when looking to buy products with as many details to consider as a computer display, I'd recommend doing some research and looking into some other options. Most people care about what their monitor is capable of and don't automatically buy the first product that they see.
I recommend going on rtings.com if you haven't already and do some comparing and window shopping. If nothing else tickles your fancy and you can live with the slow 60hz refresh rate, then this display is a good candidate for what you should buy.
Another solid option for a large 4k 60hz screen at this price point is the Dell S3221QS 32 Inch Curved 4K monitor, also sold here at amazon.

Llevo un par de semanas jugando en el, específicamente en una SERIES X
Y francamente lo único que puedo decir es WOW, lo digo ya que di el salto de una TV55" FULL HD a un monitor 4K con HDR, y estoy fascinado.
Empecemos por los colores de monitor, pese a no ser un monitor IPS la representación de colores es exquisita, los juegos con colores vividos y saturados lucen preciosos, toda una delicia al jugar, no te faltara realismo en los colores.
El tamaño: Como lo comentaba, de estar jugando en una TV55" el cambio a uno de 32" Fue notable pero para bien, al ser un monitor y trabajar cerca de el no pierdes detalles, no he notado pixeles y aunque lo recomendable en monitores así de grandes es que sean curvos, créanme, no lo necesitaran, las equinas se ven perfectas como el resto del monitor, y no es necesario girar la cabeza para apreciar los detalles presentes en las esquinas del monitor, también por el tamaño lo utilizo como TV ya que esta en mi habitación, y no falla, cumple la función pese a que no sea lo más recomendable.
Funciones del monitor:
El monitor cuenta con un buen menú para calibrar colores, escoger modos de imagen, en ese aspecto estoy satisfecho
Tiene bocinas incluidas las cuales sinceramente no he probado, pase de largo de ellas ya que tengo unas bocinas que decidí conectar directamente a la entrada de audífonos 3.5 que incluye el monitor
La función de Eyecare es buenísima, cumple y no te cansa la vista, aunque soy un poco exigente con los colores por lo que de vez en cuando cuando quiero disfrutar de una toma en algún juego, lo desactivo para tener los colores FULL
HDR: El monitor viene con una función HDR que emula si es que tu dispositivo no permite HDR, es una función muy buena, el nivel de saturación y contraste son de 10 por lo que recomiendo el monitor pese a no tener un dispositivo que reproduzca contenido HDR
Ahora bien, donde creo queda mal es con el SERIES X, al activar la opción de HDR 10 en el XBOX hay algunos juegos como RDR2 el HDR nativo de XBX hace más opaca la imagen, mas grisácea, y podrían decir que es mi error de calibración dentro del juego pero no es así , y hay que sumarle que cuando un dispositivo reproduce HDR nativo, el monitor bloquea las configuraciones y solo puedes mover parámetros como HDR o HDR Cinematográfico, y ya, eso me disgusto un poco
Como conclusión:
He dejado unas imágenes adjuntas para que vean la diferencia entre usar HDR Nativo o Emulado en el monitor vs estas opciones desactivadas, y la diferencia es abismal, en serio es la noche y el día, no se como pude estar jugando sin HDR, tan solo un juego muy común GTAV se ve asombroso en HDR Emulado pese a no tener ningún tipo de optimización.
El monitor Incluye un cable:
USB C A USB C un poco porto en mi opinión
Alimentación
Displayport a DPMini con un tamaño moderado
No incluye HDMI
Estoy encantado con el, definitivamente la mejor compra 10/10

But but but .. Benq has a Ace in their sleeves here which no other monitor has. its Brightness Intelligence.. Its nothing but auto brightness. Initially i ignored this as usually I tune the monitor as per my needs. But the BI feature along with HDR works perfectly here. The issue I had with high brightness earlier in dark room while gaming is no longer their when BI is on. It auto adjusts screen brightness based on lighting in the room. You can also see a BI meter on the bottom right whenever it adjusts the brightness.
This is how you should use this monitor, with HDR+BI ON. Colors are accurate with HDR ON, blacks are black. Forza motorsport 7 felt like a new game to me, though i played it earlier on a LG 24 inch 4K monitor (non HDR).
HDR emulation is also perfect for non HDR games, in fact Red dead redemption 2 looks super realistic and amazing with HDR emulation than in game HDR feature. :P
32 inch is perfect for 4K monitor to play in a living room. You can sit comfortably in the couch and game. Earlier i used a 24 inch 4K monitor which required that i need to sit close- upfront with monitor. I also had a 43 inch 4K HDR samsung TV but did not liked it because - more the screen size lesser the ppi. 32 inch has perfect ppi density for 4K gaming.
Other than monitor had great build quality, a great stand. Bit of bezel but it does not matter. VA panel is superb with perfect black levels and hardly i see any back light bleed. Though its not as great OLED screens , you are paying much less. For 35k you will not find anywhere else with such a awesome HDR enabled panel in a combination of 4ms response time.
Go for it if you are in for a great monitor for you xbox one x and ps4 pro.
I have been very happy with the results. The units have a crisp, stable image for editing, office and for my sound design and music workbench - with colour and responsiveness being important for reviewing audio analysis.
Since I do not play games, I cannot report on how well they would function as a gaming monitor. But from what I can see (pun intended) they will probably meet many gamers needs. You do not always need 'the best'... just more than good enough. And these monitors are certainly more than good enough!
