Pros & Cons

Pros
  • ZOWIE XL2746K core strength The 240 Hz TN panel, DyAc+, Black eQualizer, Color Vibrance, S Switch and three HDMI 2.0 inputs provide the familiar ZOWIE tournament toolkit
  • ZOWIE XL2746K's 1920 x 1080 and 81 PPI clearly define its workspace and sharpness
  • ZOWIE XL2746K connectivity The connection set covers 3 x HDMI 2.0; 1 x DisplayPort 1.2; 1 additional USB connection.
  • ZOWIE XL2746K ergonomics The stand lists 155 mm height adjustment, ±45° swivel, no functional pivot and -5° to +23° tilt.
  • ZOWIE XL2746K's closest comparison is BenQ ZOWIE XL2746S; the XL2746K uses a newer 155 mm stand and three HDMI 2.0 ports, while the XL2746S includes DVI-D, a fuller USB hub and a published 0.5 ms GtG response
Cons
  • ZOWIE XL2746K main compromise Full HD produces only 81 PPI at this size, and the sheet lists no response time, adaptive sync, speakers or HDR support
  • ZOWIE XL2746K's missing values remain unpublished rather than being copied from BenQ ZOWIE XL2746S.
  • Before choosing ZOWIE XL2746K over BenQ ZOWIE XL2746S, verify that its exact ports, stand and motion ceiling match the intended use
