The BenQ EX271QZ pairs a 26.5-inch QD-OLED panel at 2560 × 1440 with a refresh rate of up to 500 Hz.
Overview
The BenQ EX271QZ pairs a 26.5-inch QD-OLED panel at 2560 × 1440 with a refresh rate of up to 500 Hz. It offers 110 ppi pixel density, 300 nits typical brightness (1000 nits peak) and 99% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–500 Hz, quotes 0.03 ms response and supports FreeSync Premium Pro. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.1, 1× DisplayPort 1.4, USB-C and 2× USB-A. The stand offers 100 mm of height adjustment and swivel. There are no speakers, and it weighs 7.17 kg with the stand. It suits players who want OLED contrast with very fast response. The main trade-off: USB-C output is only 5 W, too little to charge most laptops.
