23.8″ BenQ GW2480L – Specs & Features
The BenQ GW2480L is a straightforward 23.8-inch AH-IPS monitor with a 1920 × 1080 screen.
Overview
The BenQ GW2480L is a straightforward 23.8-inch AH-IPS monitor with a 1920 × 1080 screen. It offers Full HD resolution, 92 ppi pixel density, 250 nits typical brightness and 1000:1 static contrast. The panel refreshes at 60 Hz and quotes 5 ms response. Inputs include 1× HDMI 1.4, 1× DisplayPort 1.2 and D-sub. The stand tilts only. 2 × 1 W speakers are built in, and it weighs 4.23 kg with the stand. It suits everyday office, study and home use. The main trade-off: capped at 60 Hz, so fast games will not feel as smooth.
