For XL2430T TN panel which might seem bad color reproduction, the color is actually fine and it can be adjusted by "Color Vibrance" mode. This falls under normal expectations of TN-panel technology, as the XL2720Z had a similar amount of deviance towards the right side of the screen. The “Premium” setting results in an ample amount of artifacts that trail fast-moving objects, and quite honestly, is unnecessary to engage. This Zowie XL2430 monitor may only measure 24 inches, but it’s packed to the brim with BenQ’s* latest gaming features. In a gaming event or a LAN party, other users of compatible BenQ monitors could just use the same game mode if they like.

After applying the ICC profile, the color temperature measured 6495 K, just 5 points shy from the standard 6500 K. The XL2430T sports a slightly different design than its predecessors, the BenQ XL2420T and XL2420TX .We’ve experienced it previously on the EW2440L and it does have effect to reduce fatigue to the eyes on long hours usage. The XL2430T also includes a redesigned S-Switch, which was one of my favorite features of the previous XL2720Z gaming monitor that I reviewed.

Here’s the BenQ Display Pilot, specially tailored for BenQ gaming monitors to allow you to easily customize the monitor to behave according to your preferred settings. Finally, the top of the monitor’s stand has a handle, making it easy to carry this monitor with just one hand — helpful, whether you’re making the long walk to the LAN from the car, or you just like moving your monitor around the house. So here I am sat with an old IIyama E2407HDS and a new XL2430T and the color difference and image quality between the two is staggering.

In normal day-to-day use, the deviations in both backlight and color temperature uniformity shouldn’t affect your enjoyment of the screen.

uk in case you are wondering) I now have the choice of keeping the two 1920x1080 monitors (one 60hz and one 144hz) I have but I am not sure I can stand noticing the persistent differences between them.The horizontal scan rate/frequency shows the number of horizontal lines, displayed by the monitor per second, when it is plugged to a digital source.
