BenQ is to offer a curved monitor dubbed EX3200R. The 31.5-inch monitor has been fitted with a 144 Hz VA panel. Mind boggline though, this is a Full HD 1920x1080 screen, it however is marketed as movie playback monitor.
The VA (Vertical Alignment) panel has a 1800R curvature and comes with a 3000:1 static contrast, 178° horizontal and vertical viewing angles claimed. The 144Hz refresh rate is 45 – 144Hz variable for Adaptive-Sync and FreeSync. The monitor is being marketed as ‘entertainment monitor’ and specifically offers support for 24P, 25P and 30P. With Video Format Support (1080/24P, 25P, 30P Playback Support), videos can be displayed at the correct cadence, without the need for pulldowns which distort playback of the source video.
