BenQ Pro Designer PD2706UA with Ergo Arm Review! Awesome Creator Display at a great price point!

[@wayneloong1229]

Thank you for the informative and comprehensive review. I owned an M1 iMac and have ordered a refurbished base Mac Studio after viewing your M2 Pro mini versus M1 Max Mac Studio. I have also made a decision to order this monitor after viewing your unboxing video and also the interview with Dr. Bai. Now I am excited and look forward to receiving the setup. Thank you once again for the tedious effort to create such useful content for people like me. Keep going 🤩😄

[@aadams8162]

Thank you for the comprehensive and informative review. I had not heard of BenQ until 10-ish months ago. I purchased my first BenQ monitor about 6 months ago. I really like the PD line quality & the customer service. I expect i will purchase the 32" version of this model with the arm once they are back in stock. I REALLY hope that they make the arm available for other PD line monitors. The extra room for the number of cables is notable improvement over the LG one. The Hotkey puck is a fantastic necessary accessory. I would like to see it have a much longer cable or that it be a standard cable so an extension cord could be used to extend the distance for the desktop aesthetics - i think running down the arm and under my desk to the position i would like it to be in, then across the desk to the easily reachable position would be closed to 8 or 9 feet (3 for monitor arm, 3 for under desk, 1-2 for regular use movement). Great Review!

Hey boss!! Great Great Review!! Quick Question!! Whats the difference between this 06 and the 05? Is it just that the 05 is "Mac friendly". I like the black finish on the 05ua.

[@ArtIsRight]

They are both Mac compatible and are really close to each other. The only variation is color gamut coverage and USB C power. I would give this video a watch kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZ6ZeZSqbdxmaLs

Woowww 👏 and again Woowww 👏 Honest and sincere review. I became a fan of this channel. You have earned an active viewer. I really need your help and opinion: 1 - Is the only difference between the PD2706UA model and the PD2706U the ergonomic arm? 2- Are the typical nits of these two models at most 350 nits? 3 - Only when in HDR does it reach 400 nits? 5 - Both don't have calibration software? 6 - Only the SW models have calibration software, Palette Master Ultimate? 7 - The Palette Master Ultimate software doesn't work on the PD2706U and PD2706UA models? 8 - To calibrate the PD models only using the hardware calibrator software? 9 - What is the DCI- P3? 95 or 90% coverage? and AdobeRGB coverage of the PD2706U and PD2706UA? By calibrating you can get a delta E below two,? I'm really sorry for asking so many questions, but I'm going to buy a new BenQ monitor and I want to choose the right model for my use. Much success to your channel. Best regards

[@ArtIsRight]

1. U and UA are the same, U desktop stand, UA - ergo Arm (hence the "A") 2. Yes, but most users set theirs much lower. 3. Max is 400 nits, and it can reach and sustain that 4. No questions here 5. No, we consider these a "Software" Calibrated display. You would use the software that comes with your calibration device. 6. Yes, and that software is for SW Line only 7. No 8. Yes 9. 95% DCI-P3, Adobe RGB is in the 80 percent range, probably around 84%, but you can't access or calibrate Adobe RGB. These are software-calibrated displays, and if the factory did not calibrate them in this gamut, you can't access them. Yes, you can easily calibrate these for ∆e below 2. If you are a photographer, I would suggest the SW line if it can fit within your budget, this would be especially important if you print

[@BebePinga]

You are the Man!! Thank you very much for the answers

[@BenSussmanpro]

Thanks for this detailed review. I think I will end up getting this since it has a good price point. But do you think I can reasonably calibrate this using the built-in software (I do sports & event photography primarily) to match my MacBook M1 display? I dread using those hardware calibration gizmos, I never had luck with them (before I switched to Apple). Thanks again, I like your other videos too.

[@ArtIsRight]

There's really no proper software calibration with you a hardware device.

[@PolluxChung]

Ergo-type arms typically have limitation on height. I have tried the LG one I ended up returning it two days later. For me it has to be a standard type monitor either on a riser, or on a "traditional" 3rd-party arm.

[@ArtIsRight]

For your situation yes, and there are plenty of arms out there that would fit your needs.

[@FabsterClapster]

Thanks for this informative Video! I have the PD3220U and love this monitor. Because of the size of my room, I'm thinking about switching to the PD2706U. Would you say it's a comparable match?

[@ArtIsRight]

It would be a good match for side by side use. PD2706UA is a good display, the only other model that tops it would be PD2725U, and the only variation is Thunderbolt connection and no Ergo Arm.

[@LongHornTexas]

This is a great review! May i know if all the ports are HDCP 2.2 compliant? HDMI, DP & USB-C? Also, what is the data transfer speed of USB-C in PD2706 model? I am asking about the rear usb-c port that receives video/data. Edit: The older models PD2705U/A has USB-C 3.2 Gen1 with 5 Gbps speeds. Found it in the user manual for the same model in BenQ site. But the user manual is not found for latest PD2706U/A models in BenQ site.

[@ArtIsRight]

This is a monitor and although HDCP 2.2 standard would apply in specific use case situation, if one uses a computer the OS and software running on it would provide authentication. What is your specific use case that that varies from the norm? Data transfer rate at 4K60Hz is going to be USB 2.0 speed. Or 4K30Hz at USB 3 speed. Either option you'll have 90 watts PD. As far as speed spec goes it is USB 3.2 and I would think it is Gen 1 as well.

You will get thunderbolt connection which you can daisy chain another 4K display to. 4 side infinity edge. May be slightly higher Power Delivery but that is about it. PD2706UA is like a baby PD2725U

It is just display scaling on 27" 4K, nothing special. The issue is really a non - issues. It is either you like it or are you ok with it or not. Some do, some don't. Also this is not something that I can easily show in a video. It is one of those where you have to see it in person.

It would be also awesome if you guys made monitors with the same speccs as this, but capable of atleast 120hz so during the day it can be used for all these critical tasks, while during the evening one can use it for gaming.

This display does not have daisy chaining capability. As far as power delivery goes, anything new with USB C is always going to come with PD. No way around that. This is the base line for this panel spec. Watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZ6ZeZSqbdxmaLs to see if the entry model PD2705U would be a good fit for you.

[@filucian]

Hi Art, I am torn between RD280U vs PD2706UA (this one). Most of my work is programming, and thus I am leading towards RD280U, however, this model has the Ergo Arm and is cheaper in our market. It would be great if you could help me decide based on the following factors a. KVM (Is there any latency in the pass through? Are there any HW requirements for the attached devices) b. Daisy Chaining (Can I daisy chain using HDMI / DisplayPort from RD280) c. Is the RD280U really worth the extra price for Dev & Programming workflows? I hope the RD280U does not compromise on color accuracy. Thank you for your excellent reviews. Would you be reviewing the RD Series in the near future?

[@ArtIsRight]

1. I Have not tested this much, but it should be minimal, imperceptible 2. Both do not have Thunderbolt so you can't daisy chain display signal 3. I have not tested the RD so difficult to say. We'll see on the RD review. The coating on the RD is more like the SW than the PD so less reflection.

Great review and recommendations on setup of the monitor. I currently, have a mounting arms and it appears the back allows Versa attachment. Is there an adapter with the monitor for this application? Also which size screen would recommend? I thought about having two monitors, but with the dual image ability would this option work for one monitor? Should I go with a larger size if going with just monitor? I will be using MacBook ProMax laptop that we talked about from your earlier reviews on the new laptops for photo video editing. What is the refresh rate of this monitor (60 hertz or higher for video/gaming?). Would you recommend using OLED TV as a monitor or a Gaming type of monitor for photo editing?

[@ArtIsRight]

Is there an adapter with the monitor for this application? Back mounting is a Vesa 100 x 100, you can just put the mounting plate in and the screws, then you should be good to go. Also which size screen would recommend? For the arm? I would check the spec on size and weight support. I thought about having two monitors, but with the dual image ability would this option work for one monitor? This arm only mount 1 display, if you want 2 on one arm, look at 3rd party.

[@bizpixvegas7651]

Hi Art, Thank you for your in-depth review. I have an older 32" PD model which is working fine but I could use the Ergo Arm in my desk set up. Have you had any experience or measured the longevity of BenQ monitors? I bought two of the PD 32" models. I gave one to my brother which is about seven years old and the one I have is about three years old. Both of them are working fine with zero issues.

[@ArtIsRight]

LCD displays regardless of brand will generally last for sometime. As panel age, there may be issues that comes up, electronic components and panel deterioration would be a few things that comes to mind, LCD bleeding would another. With all of these it is the luck of the draw really, you may get one that works fine for 10 years and you could as well get one that show issues after 1 month and this happens across the board regardless of brand. But so far my BenQ are working fine. Another thing too is that certain products are going to be know for certain type of failure, it is like a stereo type in a way but it is simply parts and components that may have not been up to spec or there may be some manufacturing defect which happens from time to time.

[@bizpixvegas7651]

@@ArtIsRight Thank you for the reply Art. I do not remember if I mentioned this in another post before but the reason I ended up with a 32" monitor (the first one) was that my 27" PD died on me twice within a few months. Credit to BenQ, they stood behind their product. After the second failure and return to them, I guess they felt bad and shipped me a 32" PD which is working to this day with zero issues. That was about seven years ago!

[@ArtIsRight]

Nice! I love hearing stories like this. One thing that many don't give BenQ enough credit for is that they genuinely care for their customer. And it goes a long way to show compassion and kindness when contacting support. Being abrasive will only get you so far. Thank you for sharing this antidote.

Hi, thanks you for the informative review. Would it be possible to have a daisy chaining with the PD2706UA and the SW272U for photo printing and have the best for the 2 worlds ?

You can link them up individually but no daisy chain, bandwidth limitation with 4K

[@Peter-df1br]

Thank you for this video. My new PD2706UA arrived a few days ago. I agree the 1.8m USB-C-USB-C cable is too short after threading the cable through stand. There are so many USB-C cables out there with different standards. I would like to have a 10ft cable to enable my 14inch MBPro M1 to be used closer to how I sit as you suggested. Which USB-C (10ft) cable is cable of communicating signals and charging my MBP? This BenQ says it is cable of 90w power. The included cable works fine, just too short.

[@ArtIsRight]

Look for any USB C to USB C that can handle 4K signal and 90-100 watts PD. But the key factor here is to make sure that it can handle 4k. Something like this www.amazon.com/Monitor-Transfer-Charging-MacBook-Portable/dp/B0C9MBY8VQ

[@dsimonovic]

Thanks for the very informative video. I would appreciate it if you could give me a quick recommendation. I was about to purchase the PD3220U and also had the BenQ PD3420Q as my second choice, since I like the 32" size and it's their flagship 32" PD monitor. I mainly use the monitor for photo editing with an sRGB profile. However, once I discovered the model with an ergo mount (BenQ PD3205UA), I am now unsure whether I should compromise by going from their flagship model to the base model just so I could have the ergo mount. Your thoughts on PD3205UA for photo editing in sRGB profile? Thanks a lot

[@ArtIsRight]

if you are just looking for sRGB then PD3205UA is a good choice at a great price. If you don't need thunderbolt connection and the larger color gamut coverage then flagship will not do you much good. If you are looking at a wide screen that is 5K2K base then PD3420Q is a good option as well. Remember that the latter has less pixel per inch compared to the 32" 4K models

Thank you for the video. 8bit OR 8bit + frc is necessary for Rec709 video? If 8bit is sufficient then pd2506q will be low budget alternative? For P3 8bit+frc is compulsory or 8bit will be sufficient? For grading 10bit 4K SLOG3 footage.

[@ArtIsRight]

8bit OR 8bit + frc is necessary for Rec709 video? I would go with higher end 8 bit + FRC, does it matters, it depends, will you see it, to an extent. If 8bit is sufficient then pd2506q will be low budget alternative? It would be but personally I would recommend that look for a model with 8 bit + FRC instead, get the more Pro PD and not entry level model. For P3 8bit+frc is compulsory or 8bit will be sufficient? Bit depth has to do with the color that the panel can show, more is better especially for larger gamut such as P3

I may just consider trying this out as i was looking for a new monitoring, although I really feel the benQ PD2725U i was considering is priced higher than this and outclassed now, the 250 nit brightness is a big disappointment for its price point, should lower the price on that monitor. I would really like to see Benq make a monitor in their PD line with 600 hdr and higher nit brightness with 95 -99% DCI-P3 and or Adobe. I have enjoyed my PD2700u and Benq as a company. Nearly switched brands before seeing this new release though because of difficulty finding decent specs for a new purchase.
