Both displays are designed to deliver support for full HD 1080p video and can deliver a number of eco-friendly design features.

In regard to the technical specifications of its new LCD monitors, the company touts a contrast ratio of 5 million to 1 for intense blacks and extreme whites. In addition, like the rest of BenQ’s recently announced LCD monitors, the new eco-friendly products are featured with the company’s Senseye 3 Human Vision technology, said to provide the end-user with an increased visual quality. In their built-in Eco mode, the new monitors are said to be capable of consuming 30% less power. Featuring a refreshed design, the two are certified for TCO 5.0, RoHS, EnergySTAR 4.1, EuP Energy, PC3R and EPEAT GOLD specifications.
