BenQ EW277HDR 27"
The EW277HDR is a solid monitor with great color quality and the OSD menu is clear and simple to navigate. It is overpriced at $270 and I really think this monitor should not cost more than $200. At $270, you can find monitors on the market that come with a 2K resolution and also have an IPS display. Overall, the BenQ EW277HDR deserves our recommended award.

The BenQ EW277HDR can be purchased from BenQ official store on Lazada at the price of RM1,079, it’s somewhat pricey compared to most 27 inch monitors. In case you’re considering making a jump to an entry level HDR monitor – since true HDR monitor will cost 3 to 4 times more than this price, then the BenQ EW277HDR is yours to consider for. Otherwise, just go for the non-HDR BenQ EW2775ZH that comes with similar features and cost RM300 less.

By monitornerds.com onLooking past the headline features and the shiny copper-coloured button that allows quick access to them, this monitor provides strong all-round performance with pleasing contrast and vibrant but not gaudy colour output.
By pcmonitors.info onTo take full advantage of what HDR10 has to offer, you’ll need to either put a 55” Vizio (or an LG OLED if you’re well-funded) on your desk or spend a lot of money on a multi-zone backlight monitor. For under $300 though, you can enjoy BenQ’s EW277HDR. If you’d rather not wait for prices to come down on professional-grade computer monitors, this one offers superb color accuracy and reasonable HDR today. It may not be compatible with every source device so check your gear before buying. But at this price point, it’s hard to beat.
