There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I'm a programmer who spends most of his time on his computer -- reading/writing text, watching video, and playing games. Previously I was using 2 Dell U2518D monitors, which, even after calibration with an iDisplay Pro Plus, had the following issues:
* Crushed blacks
* Poor contrast
* Uneven colors
* Uneven backlight
* Backlight bleed
* Glare, despite the matte surface
After deciding I didn't want to put up with those issues any longer, I did a week or two of research on what the best no-compromises monitors were in late 2020. That led me to the SW321C, a professional monitor rather than a gaming/consumer monitor, because consumer models -- no matter how fancy they claimed to be or how slick the marketing -- all seemed to fall short and require me to resign myself to compromises in at least one area (and I didn't want FALD).
The BenQ SW321C is expensive (though not as expensive as the EIZO and Dell screens that it's often compared to), but I consider the money well spent. The image quality is outstanding. Colors are stunning. Images and text are markedly sharper and crisper than they were on my 25" 1440p monitors (though this would be true of any 4k 32" screen). The backlight is the evenest I've ever seen. There's no backlight bleed that I can detect. I love the shade hood and never take it off. The matte coating is far and away the best I've seen/used.
For the movies and tv shows I've watched on it (Blade Runner, Ex Machina, The Witch, The Expanse, The Man in the High Castle, The Midnight Gospel), I couldn't be happier with the quality of the picture. The HDR may be "fake," but it still massively improves the viewing experience, especially in regard to handling of darkness/shadows.
Last year I bought and returned the BenQ SW271. I loved it, but the backlight was uneven, there was backlight bleed, and 27" was too small for 4K". (32" is, for my eyes (late 30s), the perfect size for a 4k screen.) If I was going to spend $1,500, I wasn't willing to put up with those issues.
The SW321 isn't as bright as the SW271, which is a shame, but it also fixes every issue I had with the SW271.
==
Update: the blacks aren't as dark as I'd like them to be. (EDIT: correction, for $2k you can NOT get a very decent oled tv with perfect blacks. You will experience burn in.) The monitor also seems to produce a lot of heat. I'm not sure I regret the purchase. It still ticks all the boxes for me, and I consider the money well spent, but if I could do it again, and my living quarters allowed it, (EDIT and recantation: I would not opt for an OLED)
Update #2: Scratch that. I still wish the blacks were darker, but this is as good as it gets on an IPS panel. OLED TVs aren't meant to be used as PC monitors, and if you use one that way, there will inevitably be burn in. I'm still quite happy with the purchase, despite the one, single, occasional stuck sub-pixel.
I've seen a few reviews here that fault the hardware calibration, but for me it has been superb -- certainly better, to my untrained eye, than the i1 Display Pro Plus's software calibration. That being said, I encountered a couple of bugs/problems when using the Palette Master software: it didn't detect my calibrator until I set colors to 10 bit, full output, and I had to plug it into a USB port on my desktop, not one of the SW321C's USB ports.
Update #3: The stuck pixel started to occur more frequently, so I contacted BenQ customer service and asked them to service the screen. The customer-support staff, who were phenomenal -- prompt, professional, understanding, knowledgeable, and incredibly to work with -- helped me, despite a couple of mix ups (which weren't their fault), resolve the matter to my satisfaction.
Update #4: The top review is... awful. What on earth sort of person brags(?) about bossing around delivery people? The top item in this person's list of pros is "high Quality Display Monitor," but the review also states that the screen was defective, that s/he has seen better image quality on $200 monitors, and that the colors look "horrible." Garbage. Neither of us is an expert. Ignore amazon reviews. Read reviews written by professional photographers, for whom this monitor is intended.
Dec 2022 update: my sw321c is one of my favorite possessions. Even my partner who isn't finicky about screen quality loves it. Watching movies or shows on it is always a treat. I can't praise it highly enough. And I can't believe I omitted from my review that its cardboard box is the nicest, most thoughtful I've encountered for anything I've purchased. It's huge but well worth keeping, as it protects the monitor perfectly and stores and organizes everything incredibly cleanly and effectively. No loose cables. No textured carton compartments. Everything has its isolated section, or its own box (which perfectly fits into only one place). My only complaint with the monitor concerns the shade ood, which has started to fall apart easily. I doubt it's meant to be handled, put on, or taken off as much as I have though. I cover the screen with several layers of cloth when I'm not using it, e.g. at night, because I want to keep it pristine, and they don't fit over the hood.
One thing, the hardware calibration with BenQ's Palette Master Element software is pretty darn buggy on Windows but works well on Mac. I've been working around color calibration software buggyness on Windows for almost 20 years... It's a common problem, so I'm not sure this all BenQ's fault. All calibrators seem to have quirks on Windows. I can say the BenQ hardware calibration is a good and long one. Unfortunately it doesn't offer uniformity test though. I ran that first with X-Rite software before I dove into the full setup.
Part of my problem was Windows installed a 2017 BenQ monitor driver first even though I had installed the download driver for this monitor before plugging it in. It fixed after some reboots while I was mucking with settings. Come to think of it, I think it fixed itself when I changed to the BenQ USB 3.0 A/B cable.
Oddly if I set "Output dynamic range" to "Full" in Nvidia control panel, the hardware calibration fails. If I set it to "Limited" the calibration looks fantastic and at least reports crazy low deltas (0.3 avg, 0.67 max). I'm not sure why I can't use "Full" range nVidia settings with this monitor. My other monitor connected to the same Windows machine (ViewSonic VP3881 sRGB+) does its hardware calibration just fine at 10-bit with output range set to "Full". This impacts the darkest/lowest range, allows more near-black detail when set to full theoretically. I believe I can see more gradation steps at the low end on the cheaper ViewSonic monitor but I'm not certain of this. It's not a big deal, but the OCD in me will try again some day. It's possible this doesn't matter depending on how the BenQ is doing things with hardware and software I suppose. The Calibration could be failing because some conflict happening. There is definitely a wider color gamut on the BenQ than the sRGB+ Viewsonic, not yet sure about bid depth though. Pretty happy though.
I've been doing a lot of printing with this monitor so far. I would say while a large gamut monitor isn't required for printing anymore since some of the sRGB+ monitors are so good, it does still help. And it is amazing to look at images from a quality modern camera in the gamut that this BenQ covers. Photo editing in wide gamut is more enjoyable than it ever has been thanks to improved monitors, 4K workspace, and the improved depth and quality of RAW images. Big step up from 10 years ago.
I did some Photoshop black to white gradation tests and confirmed we are in 10-bit/30-bit (3 channels). It doesn't have the banding on either monitor that you see in 8-bit mode. I'm just not sure I have the full bit range yet at the low end on the BenQ. I suppose I can test this by skipping hardware calibration next time and see what runing a software calibration using X-Rite's software that came with my i1Display Pro Plus produces. (Please add a comment if you know what's going on here with "Full" range causing hw calibration fails.)
The hood comes in about 9 pieces and is a bit annoying to put together and take apart again for storage. Everything needs to slide and snap together. A bit cumbersome. It does the job but a hinge based solution would be better IMO. I'm not one who uses a hood all the time since my room lighting doesn't force me to, but I like hoods during calibration.

Top reviews from other countries
The monitor came exceptionally well packaged and supplied with every cable one would need. The technology of this monitor was well thought out and ahead of its time. While it came with HDMI and DP interfaces, it also came with option for connection via USB-C to USB-C. A recent upgrade of my Mac allowed me to plug this monitor directly into the USB-C port and it was up and running without the need for video cables.
Benq has excellent support for this display with all the documentation you would like and software along with software updates. I have used this display on both a high end Windows PC and a MacBook Pro M1 Max and it gets 5 stars across the board.
The shading Hood mounts very solidly even though at first blush it seems like it may be rickety.
You do have to disassemble and put it together differently if you wish your monitor to be in portrait mode instead of landscape, but in the end this leads to it being more secure.
The inside is lined with a black felt to keep the displays light from bouncing back, and there's a trapdoor at the top for your calibrator.
I'm inclined to call it overpriced the fact is that in today's economy it's likely priced significantly less than any other brands would be.
All in all I'm very happy with the purchase, I find it very well built and secure and works very well for my needs.
You’d be hard pressed to find a better monitor for the price. At just a touch over $2K this is an excellent addition for those extremely budget conscious shoppers like me who only have a little bit of extra cash to spend and need a good value for money purchase.
This monitor has really helped me to take photography and design to the next level, and opened up doors for me that might not have opened otherwise if I didn’t have the type of setup this monitor was able to provide me with.
10/10 would recommend.
