HDR content increases every day, so HDR support is a spec many buyers want in a monitor. You should note that this effect varies between different models and manufacturers. HDRi, BenQ’s proprietary technology, enhances the standard effect by integrating adaptive tech. Its intelligent control detects the current ambient light level and the image content and then automatically adjusts screen brightness for the ideal viewing experience. Viewers can see clearly what’s being shown on the monitor. It’s the combination of innovation and increased user control which creates the most immersive experience to date.

Intelligent Brightness and Contrast Control

HDR increases contrast and details with brightness effects. By introducing custom modes suited to different content, BenQ HDRi lets you match the effect to what you’re watching. The graph below shows how brightness and contrast vary between modes. These subtle differences take the viewing experience from ordinary to extraordinary.

HDR refines details by raising brightness. This can result in overexposed bright areas on the display. Fortunately, BenQ developed a fix. Game mode strikes a balance that reveals the details on the screen without losing the immersive gaming experience you want. As for Cinema mode, it maintains the cinematic feel without you missing out on any of the action—even in dark scenes.

Vivid Colors

Besides better contrast and more details, BenQ HDRi technology also offers more saturated colors. This makes colors richer and more vivid. This is because the BenQ Color Engine allows each color to be enhanced in depth and hue. For example, in Cinema mode, the color blue can become more vivid than in other modes. All this attention to color results in viewing experiences that make you love what you watch and glad you watched it on a BenQ monitor.

With BenQ’s proprietary HDRi technology users can customize their experience. After all, you know what you want from a viewing experience. BenQ is here to make that happen.

What is HDR

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a technology that produces images with a large perceptible difference between bright and dark regions.
