Somehow high dynamic range has become intimately tied with 4K but there’s nothing stopping us from having it on QHD monitors. The EX2780Q has VESA Display HDR400 certification, driven by a 10-bit panel that shows over a billion colors with 95% of the DCI-P3 color gamut. But there’s more! Unlike run of the mill gaming monitors, the EX2780Q features a front-mounted, discrete light sensor to detect ambient conditions and automatically adjust HDR levels. That’s HDRi, a proprietary BenQ technology that works to refine HDR rather than just stick with presets that end up causing extreme brightness or overly deep darks. With HDRi the monitor’s dynamic range takes on a hefty aspect of smart that helps prevent detail loss, something any gamer is sure to appreciate.
Thanks to our HDRi tech, you don’t need to worry about constantly bringing up the options menu and trying to calibrate HDR levels because you can’t shake the nagging feeling details get washed out by exaggerated brightness or contrast. That HDRi sensor offers more than a nice line on a spec sheet, it affords peace of mind.
