BenQ Releases BL2700HT 27" with AMVA Screen
BenQ recently launched a new 27" monitor in their BL range. The BL2700HT is designed with user comfort and adjustability in mind. Spec wise the 27" panel offers a 1920 x 1080 resolution, 4ms G2G response time, 3000:1 contrast ratio, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 178/178 viewing angles and an 8-bit colour depth.
It uses an AMVA panel and a W-LED backlight offering a standard sRGB gamut. The screen is part of BenQ's flicker-free range and also features a low blue light mode setting. The stand offers a full range of tilt, height, swivel and rotate adjustments. There are DVI, D-sub and HDMI connections offered along with a headphone and audio connection. There are also 1W stereo speakers integrated into the display.

I wonder why they even bother with such products. Anything above 24 Inch needs higher than 1080p/1200p
Probably b/c it's cheaper to make and plenty of users wouldn't care and/or appreciate/want the difference. I know plenty of people who do not know how to adjust all of their applications for size and dislike 1080p. My business uses some applications lacking scaling options and we purposely bought large monitors with a 1080p resolution to make it easier to see.

I personally prefer 1080p and 27" as I find it the ideal size in the 16:9 aspect. 24" 16:9 screens suck after being used to 16:10.
I also find 1080p less strain on the eyes as the size of the desktop is ideal. I even found 1920x1200 to be too high. I know WQHD is all the rage around here, but not for me. I think it is the first time since the early 90's I have given up on upgrading my resolution. Also running sli/crossfire for decent frame rates.. no thanks. Not going back to dual cards if I can help it.
In the future when screens can change res without quality loss, maintain 144hz at all resolutions and faster single cards it might be something I would look into again. But a higher resolution for my desktop, I will pass as my eye sight cant take any more abuse.

I agree. Also, as I have said several times before, those cheap 1440P's are all about resolution and can lack in the quality department. Even some of the people on here saying they are brilliant are on their second or third to get one they consider acceptable. Unless you're sitting stupidly close to the monitor 1920x1080 at 27 inches is fine, especially for gaming. The flicker-free (it's a LED backlight thing), AMVA high static contrast, good colour, even backlight, low bleed, fast response monitor to me is more beneficial than wanting those extra pixels alone.

People are playing/watching 720p content on 55" TVs, you know.
