Ergonomically designed, these monitors possess a relatively slim profile and a straightforward stand, making them suitable for various desk setups. While they lack advanced features like height adjustment or pivoting capabilities, their tilt function allows users to adjust the viewing angle for optimal comfort.

Furthermore, the BenQ G series incorporates technologies like Smart Eco Technology, which intelligently adjusts brightness to enhance energy efficiency without compromising visibility. The Eye-Care technology reduces blue light emission, minimizing eye strain during prolonged use—a crucial factor for today’s digital lifestyle.
