MA320U 32 inch 4K 3840x2160 Monitor for MacBook Pro/Air, Dual USB-C, 90W Power Delivery, Mac Color Match, USB Hub, Brightness & Volume Control on Mac, Adjustable Stand, P3 Color Gamut

This item comes packaged well enough to survive an air strike, although it takes a while to break down the cardboard components that secure it. It’s a heavy package too, largely due to its substantial stand. Setting it up is easy enough even with the weight. But you can be assured it isn’t going anywhere like cheaper models can. I found it slipped in to an existing set up of an Apple M4 Mac mini, W11 laptop and W10 Desktop with minimal fuss and it had no problems with setting up with each. You will however need to check if your laptop will support DisplayPort protocols to charge/display with a usb cable. The screen finish is very good and the image is pretty close to an Apple Display. The speakers are decent enough for a monitor but are pretty flat when playing music. But it’s fine for voice and has a mic out. Besides, anyone that cares enough about the sound won’t be using monitor speakers to begin. I have only one real quibble which is the need for an App on the Mac to control many of the features, though you do have brightness, volume and input ports from a small button on the underside. This may be great news for some and the screen menu is nice, but I’d prefer not to have to agree to terms and conditions to just make changes to the screen and for that App to connect to the internet. Of course you can just set it up how you like, then turn the App off and use a port sniffer or similar to block any future upstream connections. This isn't quite 'why does a dishwasher need wifi?' levels of annoyance but it really should have an alternative in the monitor. That quibble aside, it is a very good monitor at the price point for someone looking for accuracy of colours, especially if you use Apple Mac and work or dabble enthusiastically with images. If you aren’t needing that specifically then perhaps other cheaper items are available, but you should still consider this. I’ve rounded up to 5 stars with minor mark downs for the app and the lack of a display port slot

Bought this to pair with my new M4 iMac Mini and it exceeded my expectations. I honestly cannot tell the difference between this and the native Apple 4k Retina display. It’s very easy to set up the most trouble we had was deconstructing the excellent and bomb proof packaging. I’m absolutely thrilled at the quality and huge amount of money I saved against the apple screen. Worth every penny I don’t hesitate to give this my strongest recommendation!

Really nice monitor for my Mac Mini that replaced an old 27” iMac that was being used as a display only. I use mainly for coding and design so the anti glare Nano Matt was my choice but for photo work (in the right environment) the gloss might be a better choice. Super crisp sharp screen with spare brightness in hand. The BenQ Display Pilot 2 works perfectly and the Mac keyboard buttons work perfectly with it. Put the Display Pilot to start up in your logon items and it runs in the background. It is nice having a monitor that powers down and up with the USB, one less button to press. So in conclusion I am really pleased with is monitor and would highly recommend it.

The BenQ monitor is advertised as especially suitable for the Mac Book series but I believe many monitors with a USB C display port can interface with a Mac, I have the Mac Mini and used the USB C display input. BenQ was chosen over Dell 32” OLED for two reasons - firstly it was a direct sale through Amazon, secondly because I thought the setup would be easy but in reality it wasn’t. The BenQ Display Pilot software was supposed to enable the Mac keyboard brightness and volume keys to work normally but found the brightness couldn’t be controlled although volume could, I then installed Monitor Control which allowed all function keys except display speaker volume to work so for me this is the best option since I’m using an external Bose speaker for which the keys work. Display looks good when viewed directly from centre front but contrast falls off noticeably with angle, it’s just OK although I have a 27” Intel 2013 iMac, also with an IPS screen, and that seems to have a wider viewing angle before contrast noticeably degrades. Internal speakers are adequate for listening to conversation but very poor for music, using an external speaker is definitely necessary, the internal speakers are far worse than those in the old iMac. The stand is excellent with ample and easy adjustment. The packing is also excellent, strong cardboard and no expanded polystyrene.

I'm very pleased with the MA320U monitor. I use it across three devices, a Windows PC, a MacBook Air and a Dell Windows laptop. So, suffice it to say, the monitor colour accuracy is great across both platforms (Mac and Windows). The one thing most people don't seem to be talking about, which I think is a huge plus for me, is the auto brightness and colour temperature feature. This is amazing. I suffer from dry eyes from long screen time, and I love how the screen always looks easier to read at any time of the day (or night). No more manual brightness adjustments for me. Truth be told, I always stuck with LG monitors because the panels for BenQ, Dell, and most other monitors out there are made by LG anyway. So I never saw the need for the bells and whistles other brands provided with their software and features. But this monitor proved me wrong. Oh yes, the nano matte panel on the monitor is insane. So much better and reflection-free than the usual matte panels. No compromise to text sharpness at all, regardless of whichever scaling you use.

Got this to replace an iMac screen using a Mac mini and it’s comparable to a Studio Display at a fraction of the cost.

Great

Works perfectly with my Mac mini. Great colours and graphics are sharp

Great monitor for my mac mini M4.

Don’t buy it! The monitor often has a left-side shadow that covers half the screen. Sometimes it disappears after a few hours or after changing some settings, but it is always a bet.

Bij het het veranderen tussen hardware van een oude iMac (late 2015) naar een Mac mini (M4 Pro) had ik een nieuwe monitor nodig. Lang getwijfeld tussen het Apple Studio Display (5K) en dit BenQ MA320U (4K) scherm wegens de kwaliteit van Apple en mijn praktische onbekendheid met BenQ. Ik ben zeker niet over 1 nacht ijs geweest en vele reviews later de knoop doorgehakt. Het toestel is nu ongeveer een week in divers gebruik en ik kan (vooral aan mezelf) rapporteren dit ik de juiste keuze maakte. De bouwkwaliteit is excellent, Display Pilot software duidelijk. Aangesloten via USB C (HDMI nog niet geprobeerd) en alles werkt naadloos samen, mijn ingestelde resolutie van 2560 x 1440 vind ik momenteel de beste instelling. Wat betreft het verschil tussen mijn vorig 5k scherm en de BenQ is er natuurlijk een verschil, dit heeft te maken met de verschillende texturen tussen de monitors. Mijn ogen zijn ongeveer 60cm van het display verwijderd en alles is helder en scherp (ook tekst). Praktisch gezien is het verschil verwaarloosbaar, uiteindelijk voor een prijs van 1/3 van het Studio Display was dit de beste keuze. Dit apparaat heeft dan wel geen webcam maar er zijn betere opties mogelijk indien noodzakelijk. De ingebouwde luidsprekers zijn bruikbaar maar ik gebruik Edifier M60 als geluidsuitvoer (aanrader).

Super Monitor der perfekt zu meinem Mac passt, Farben und Schärfe sind wirklich hervorragend. Der 27“ Bildschirm ist nochmal deutlich größer, als ein 24“ Monitor. Für den täglichen Bedarf richtig super, Bilder werden super scharf dargestellt und man hat richtig viel Platz auf dem Bildschirm. Kann ihn wirklich empfehlen, er ist eine tolle Alternative zum teuren Apple Studiomonitor.

Très bon écran avec bonne qualité d’image. Peut être un peu « bulky » sur un bureau, mais fait le job.
