Reviewer score 78%The BenQ SW271C is designed for photography and editing so the 1.07 billion colours look incredibly natural with plenty of depth. The display boasts 99% AdobeRGB, 90% P3 and 100% sRGB as well as a Delta E ≦ 2 (average), plus 10-bit per channel colour. It has an aspect ratio of 16:9 and 178-degree viewing angles so you get a consistent appearance from almost every angle. A response time of 5ms paired with a 60Hz refresh rate may be ideal for content creation, but it's not so well-suited to gaming. If money is no object, the Acer ConceptD CP7271K is one of the best 4K monitors.
