The BenQ EW3880R is a 37.5-inch IPS ultrawide at 3840 × 1600 with a 2300R curve.
Overview
The BenQ EW3880R is a 37.5-inch IPS ultrawide at 3840 × 1600 with a 2300R curve. It offers 111 ppi pixel density, 300 nits typical brightness, 1000:1 static contrast and 95% DCI-P3 coverage. The panel refreshes at 60 Hz and quotes 4 ms response. Inputs include 2× HDMI 2.0, 1× DisplayPort 1.4, USB-C 60 W and 2× USB-A. The stand offers 120 mm of height adjustment and swivel. 2 × 3 W speakers are built in, and it weighs 13 kg with the stand. It suits multitaskers who want extra horizontal workspace. The main trade-off: capped at 60 Hz, so fast games will not feel as smooth.
