Pros & Cons

Pros
  • GW3290QT core strength Its 31.5-inch IPS panel, 65 W USB-C, DisplayPort MST output, three USB-A ports, 4 W speakers and adjustable stand make it a practical productivity hub
  • GW3290QT's 2560 x 1440 and 93 PPI clearly define its workspace and sharpness
  • GW3290QT connectivity The connection set covers 1 x HDMI 1.4; 1 x DisplayPort 1.2 (out with MST), 1 x DisplayPort 1.2; 1 x USB (Type-C; upstream; 65W; DP Alt Mode), 1 x USB (Type-C; downstream); 3 additional USB connections.
  • GW3290QT ergonomics The stand lists 110 mm height adjustment, ±20° swivel, no functional pivot and -5° to +20° tilt.
  • GW3290QT's closest comparison is BenQ PV3200U; the GW3290QT favours office connectivity and QHD scaling, whereas the PV3200U delivers 4K, 140 PPI and creator-oriented colour controls
Cons
  • GW3290QT main compromise The sheet does not publish a refresh-rate range, HDR tier or wide-gamut figure, and 93 PPI is only moderately sharp for close desktop use
  • The refresh-rate range is absent from the sheet; the 5 ms GtG response does not establish a refresh ceiling.
  • Before choosing GW3290QT over BenQ PV3200U, verify that its exact ports, stand and motion ceiling match the intended use
