BenQ launches 27- and 32-inch Ergo Arm 4K USB-C Designer Monitors

BenQ has released its latest displays today. The two new 27-inch Ergo Arm Designer Monitors and 32-inch version feature a 4K resolution, USB-C connectivity with up to 90W pass-through power, 95% DCI P3 color space, a built-in flexible mounting arm, and more at affordable price points.

BenQ’s 27-inch Ergo Arm 4K Designer Monitor (PD2706UA) comes as an upgrade over the older BenQ PD2705U and is the smaller sibling to the new 32-inch version.

Along with the new 27-inch Ergo Arm 4K Monitor, BenQ has launched a version without DCI P3 support and a bit slower charging (a new PD2705UA), plus a 32-inch Ergo Arm 4K Designer Monitor (PD3205UA).

The new releases bring a number of improvements like the versatile “Ergo Arm,” faster charging, optional DCI P3 support (on the PD2706UA only), and more in the $600-750 range.
