Mobiuz EX2510S Review - Better Than The Original?

[@TheForbidden0ne]

Your review was the reason I got my EX2510 over the in class competitors, nice to see a review of the "upgraded" version. Keep up the good work Techless!

[@Zombie101]

I don't get the obsession with screen brightness I have the s and it's by far bright enough. Why does everyone want to burn their eyes out 🤣🤣🤣

[@eetoonamamanakooo]

Late but, stimulates the fire center of caveman brain, ooh, bright, warm, like fire ooh ooh

[@fadyemad7135]

True man

[@deekay13]

Exactly. I have an LG GP850 and keep the brightness setting at 10-20%

[@juanblanco7898]

Depends on the intesity of the ambient lighting, I reckon. I feel uncomfortable in a dimly lit room, hence a monitor's maximum brightness may be a legitimate concern for me.

[@luckyxiong]

True. Real users don't care for brightness too much. I watch movies and play games and I never ever wished it was brighter.

[@kakolykia]

Thank you for your profound comparison of those two models. Sadly, you just confirmed my worst fears. When i bought my S model, i was damn sure that the refresh rate is the only difference. I had no idea that dirty tricks like that are possible! Whoever in Benq made that downgrade plan is one hell of an a$$hole!

[@ahmedmontagography3677]

[@TanishqAnand]

Was eagerly waiting for this 😁

[@Ladioz]

I bought the original Mobiuz EX2510 a month ago. Be prepared to burn your eyes with this screen, it took me a month to get used to it from a TN... but now im happy with it and i got used to it. The first thing i did was remove the orange ribbon on stand. The screen itself is nice, didnt need much settings. I keep g-sync off because it feels weird. AMA 2 is best. It's a great gaming monitor and fantastic for movies. It also has really nice speakers!

[@raffyluvmiharu]

Man should have gotten the original variant when it was release a year back. This "S" variant is about the same in performance but cost more. The 165Hz is not worth the cost and most people will barely notice the increase

[@ninjafillet8114]

Is the screen vibrant? If you can rate it 1-10 for movie watching where would it be?

[@Ladioz]

@@ninjafillet8114 The colors are vibrant and accurate. youtube.. twitch... movies.. gaming. everything looks good on it

[@manssupar]

@@ninjafillet8114 bro u can control color vibrance or just turn on hdr. There's so many options to choose make me buy this monitor. Even i pay like 280$, if u lived in usa maybe u can get more cheaper because u can buy it on amazon

[@islaymmm]

@@ninjafillet8114 If you care about movies and colour vibrance the most, get a monitor that covers ~95% of dci-p3 or if the price point you're looking at doesn't allow for that, then ~80% and up. Even the original ex2510 was nowhere near as vibrant as a true wide gamut monitor. You might also index for a higher contrast ratio than a typical IPS, so an OLED (if you can afford it) or VA would be better for that

[@hoangdatdangnguyen3038]

Damn I've been waiting for this comparison forever. Tysm!

[@dudester93]

So glad I have the Original Ex2510, another godly review from Techless! Thank you! :D

[@jeremyniels]

you really know your stuff my man and the way you present your reviews is top notch. also i really appriciate the best calibration information. though i think people should not stay away from the S just because of the lower brightness, it's still plenty bright. in many countries the S version is actually cheaper for some reason or the normal version is no longer available, so still a good deal if you ask me!

[@galladeblade6001]

I just ordered mine for 229 usd (converted). Do you still think it still a good deal or no? The availability of the non-s version is very limited and I'm not even sure of the seller if it is a scam or not. The non-s version costed 88 usd more plus the cost of risk.

[@raffyluvmiharu]

Well if you look at that, You commented on our concern about this new model on a previous comments just a few days ago and didn't expect you to where releasing a review soon. Thank you so much for this review. I seriously want to know if the "S" model with 165Hz is worth the price increase. Because It is hard to get the Original Mobiuz EX2510, non "S" model, here in our place anymore. Distributor / Supplier stating that it got replace with a "S" variant already and it cost more. Thank you as always for still reviewing newer 1080p monitors techless, More power to you!

[@fullmetalboon4670]

Thanks for your work! Subbed! Got this one coming tomorrow, I have the original non s version EX2510 and have been inpressed since day 1 and your original review convinced me. I actually really like the HDR mode via the button, it made huge difference in far cry 6, deeper colours which made everything pop without being oversaturated or to vibrant.

[@Abdulaziz1917_]

Is the difference in color accuracy between the two monitors noticeable? After calibrating both of them.

[@nmlearnerforever]

I was really searching this monitor's review from this channel before I bought the S version since I had dilemma which to get and the S version not having much reviews and scarcity of the original, thereby its price bumped up by a good 30-40 dollars. As saddening it is that I bought the S version for the better price over the original, I guess the silver lining is that I'm coming from a good 7-8 years old Dell TN panel, so everything in the S model still looks gorgeous.

[@gregorypetridis2238]

Hello Techless! I would first like to congratulate you for your amazing work! Far the most subjective reviews and beside that everything that you are mentioning in the reviews make sense. I have just a question. I'm thinking about changing my AOC 24g2u (old panel) to a mobiuz ex2710s. I'm using my pc as a workstation (I also work in the video industry, mostly reviewing videos for my company) and casual gaming and also for movies and stuff. Would it be a downgrade or an upgrade if I change to Benq's monitor? I can find the ex2710s on sale at around 220 USD.

[@FNLNFNLN]

BenQ taking advantage of the good reputation their original product got by cutting some costs and relying on consumers to not be informed about the downgrade.

[@alessiomontana1398]

cutting some cost even in the final price, i don't think they cutting more than 100$

Ok i figured out why your settings showed a gray panel, you forgot to add the Color Vibrance in recommended settings, it was on 0 by defualt which caused a grayed out screen. value 9 to 11 is best.

[@ahmedmeabed6993]

Thanks for the review, can you recomend which monitor arm is compatible with the monitor?

[@carlesv7219]

I have both and tried different settings by eye, trying to emulate my tv which is calibrated with calman. On ex2510s reds are more red, while on ex2510 they are a bit orange, hard to tell without having comparison on the side, white point looks better on ex2510 and the new one lose a bit of detail in certain areas that looks a bit saturated on bright colors. Having better red is great, but as I was one year with the other screen, I'm not sure if I prefer this new one since it burns some colors even I touched the gamma and brightness.

[@ThePazavaza]

1. I believe it's really hard if not impossible to buy original 2510 now. 2. Can you share wallpaper please? :)

[@planet_b1ue]

The EX2510 is now unavailable everywhere basically. So, now I have to get the EX2510S. It's odd in your testing it's worse because if you ask the benq themselves they said the only difference is the refresh.

[@ITalented]

whenever a company says its an upgraded model its tells you it has gone shitmixed...the strategy i see here of companies that first they make good product and when it gets good reputation they under the hood change the panel or something to cut the cost..shame on these corporates

[@johndarland3633]

I would have suspected this coming from BENQ the brightness downgrade by over 100 nits is far too much. Thank you so much for this review, almost lost me some money. Also, you said you were curious as to why BENQ decided to reduce the brightness, It's clearly just cheaper for them to have the "new" panels produced.

[@amehu]

Benq panel supplier was like "do you want 165hz for €20 less?" and Benq finance boss was like "hell yes!" Technical department went palm face

[@irshads553]

Hi your videos about monitors really help Keep up the great work👌🏼 I'm planning to buy ex2510s but want to know if we can get 165 hz performance through HDMI or it has to be a DP port? My motherboard does not have a dp port

You can get 165Hz via HDMI but only on pc not on consoles as it would be capped at 120hz on those.

[@georgeindestructible]

They say in the page that this panel has 2ms GTG yet the panel itself from the manufacturer of the panel (m250han01.8) says 5ms, hm...

[@paulshizzledizzle6180]

He doesn’t use the best feature ever. There is huge difference between Ex 2510 and the S model. Brightness intelligence + is added to game HDRi and Cinema HDRi. I don’t understand why all monitors don’t have B.I.+. It’s like an IPhone and it has a sensor that adjust brightness. So let’s say a person has a dim light on then person turns on super bright ceiling lights, the monitor adjusts and gives the same image brightness. Basically giving the same monitor brightness with changing light conditions.

[@nikzy-]

i wish you had a full video on the EX2710Q

[@ahmedmohmed4346]

Great Review...but I am actually doubtful of the verdict because the S version have a sharpness option which isn't in the Non-s version (the one I have) so maybe they made these sacrifices to enable the sharpness attribute... I also got a problem when hooking the monitor to my laptop that sound is delayed only in the beginning of playin any media so any suggestion is welcome other than that I am lucky that I got the Non-s version, thanks GOD

That's disappointing. Maybe if BenQ were selling the EX2510S at a lower price point, I could see why they'd release this. As it currently is, it just seems like BenQ just wants to cut costs and quietly release a similar but worse monitor, and hope no one notices.

[@raffyluvmiharu]

Similar with what AOC did with AOC 24G2. It was highly recommended by many YT-ber like HUB and Techless but after a while they quietly replace the panel of it model and after getting caught they release a new model that is 24G2E which using the new panel and they remove the original stand that had height adjustment and pivot, it was only capable of tilt now. Not long after they release a 24G2SE which is a 165hz variant but still the same tilt only stand but cost more. How i wish i bought the original EX2510 model before they discontinue / EOL it

[@enquiem3051]

Don't buy this monitor! It sucks I have bought this 2 days ago and it seems this brand/model has very bad quality control. The first one, I've spotted a lot of bright pixels (1 full rgb pixel + 3 small scattered dots) in first 2 days of use, poor screen uniformity (half dark that looks dirty in white screen) and mild temporary burn-in, and I've noticed frequent small flash in the top edge of the screen, also one channel of the speakers is noticably louder. Second one has okay uniformity but has terrible banding, i.e if I move my mouse to make KZbin control menu show up a white screen video, half of the screen become solid gray. This model has poor gamma and color coverage in all profiles. The coating makes the image unclear unlike AOC 24G2. Back light strobbing is useless because it force you to disable freesync and lock the brightness down to very low. Ridiculously minumum brightness without BLB is actually a bit high to use in the dark. If anyone consider buying this over cheaper models, it's really not worth it. Switching from Dell P2421D with 99.6% sRGB having very accurate colors, in term of image quality, other than this monitor having a bit better black level, it is very bad.
