BenQ Nano Matte Panels: The Next Leap in Reducing Screen Glare and Reflections

For many professionals, a large part of their daily life involves staring at a monitor. As a result, they are increasingly focused on choosing monitors that protect their eyes without compromising performance. This need drives interest in monitors that effectively reduce glare and reflected light while maintaining high visual quality. In response, BenQ has introduced its groundbreaking Nano Matte Panels and implemented them across its entire product line as an exclusive technology that reduces screen glare and reflections, redefining the capabilities of modern monitors.

• Glass, Matte Panels, and Nano Matte Panels: How Do They Differ?

• How BenQ’s Nano Matte Panel Technology Reduces Screen Glare and Reflections

• Why BenQ Nano Matte Panels Stand Out

• Glass Panels: The features mentioned above indicate how a panel reduces the effects of ambient light on the displayed image. A typical monitor that features a glass panel without any of these features tends to have a reflection rate of over 4%.

• Matte Panels: These panels use a film substrate instead of glass and feature a hard coating to diffuse ambient light, resulting in a reflection rate of approximately 3.5%.

• Nano Matte Panels: Enhanced with anti-glare and low-reflection features, these panels add an additional protective layer on top of the anti-glare coating, reducing the reflection rate to below 3%.

• Nano Matte Pro Panels: Compared to Nano Matte Panels, the Pro version divides the low-reflection layer into multiple thin layers, meticulously stacked to achieve an exceptionally low reflection rate of less than 1%. This advanced structure, combined with anti-glare and anti-reflective properties, provides a paper-like feel and significantly reduces reflections by refracting ambient light, effectively canceling out reflections from the film substrate.

The anti-glare layer comprises particles from various materials, carefully blended to optimize their anti-glare properties. As a finishing touch, a meticulously applied, high-precision anti-reflection coating is added to the anti-glare layer to ensure a very low reflection rate. Most importantly, this combination of particles and coating effectively diffuses light and controls ambient light. This precise panel technology ensures that Nano Matte Panels maintain the overall viewing quality. By eliminating glare and reflections, The Nano Matte Panels help protect the eyes of both home office workers and professionals who spend extended hours in front of monitors.

However, when additional layers are applied, the perceived color may be subtly altered. Although the difference is often hard to be aware of, BenQ AQCOLOR technology strived to address this subtle difference. By fine-tuning the color after the layers are added, it ensures that color-critical professionals, such as designers, photographers, and videographers, can rely on accurate color reproduction on the monitor.

The effectiveness of Nano Matte Panel in reducing glare and reflections while preserving image quality is the reason why BenQ is applying them to their entire slate of monitors. The Nano Matte Panels ensure that users get a clear, accurate, vibrant image without worrying about ambient brightness, making them a superior choice over monitors from other brands. 

For color-critical workers such as photographers, designers, and videographers, BenQ AQCOLOR also ensures the colors are reproduced accurately, enhancing the eye-care effects brought by the Nano Matte Panel, providing users with a highly comfortable and color-accurate screen.
