Thanks for taking the time to out this together, great video! Found myself still bouncing back and forth on which one to get during the video! Waiting on the next Mac release and thinkin Mac Mini M4 will be a beast upgrade! So yeah, need a screen! I’m still 50/50 so hope Apple drop a better cheaper Studio monitor in October too!

You're welcome! I'd say there's a less than 10% chance the Apple will undercut it's existing studio display, but never say never! I've got another BENQ review coming out in the next few days so plenty of options to consider in the end!

Great review Kirk thank you! I'm looking to switch across from my dual 27" BenQ setup to a single 32" for photography and video work and don't want to splash out on an overkill Mac Pro display. This with its specs sounds like a winner :)

You're the only non-paid reviewer of BenQ monitor (this model and the previous one) I found. I'm still considering to get the Apple Studio DIsplay though. Wonder if the new Apple Studio Display is around the corner. Great review!

If you’ve got the budget. Get the Apple Studio Display. You won’t be disappointed. Hard to go from that display to this one ultimately for me. Aside from the size.

@@DesignedbyKirk thanks. I might go for the Studio . I already have a LG 32 4K ultafine, that I’m planning to use a second monitor (vertically).

That BenQ is almost the same price as the Studio Display, and it's only 4K. It's $1500 cdn vs $1899 for the Studio Display. I'd rather get the actual 5K monitor for just a little bit more.

Yeah here in Australia the price difference is about $750, which is substantial for a lot of people. Got to pick and choose what works for you in the end!

And the screen is 32 over 27. That’s a huge bump in value for the Benq

I wonder why no other brand like BenQ makes a 32in 5k display, I always go back to the fact that for professional work, i.e. working on typography and vector, you'll be better off with Studio Display.

To work with MacOS scaling I don’t think 5K would be enough. It’d need be 6K to work well

There are 6k displays with 32 inches, but they're really expensive

Thanks for the very honest and practical review.. every other reviews seem to be missing things that matter most for regular use.. I noticed everything on the screen feel zoomed out with small icons etc.. Is that due to the macOS scaling you mentioned in the video? Other than, Apple studio display and this one which other display would you recommend for macOS users?
@DesignedbyKirk
Ай бұрын
Yep that would be due to the scaling, one of the down sides of a 4K panel on a 32" screen with MacOS you can get used to it though. Can't really comment on other monitors though, this is all i've used

Thank you for the video! I'm very glad that I found it, because I'm now faced with choosing a monitor. Color is important to me. I use davinci and dehancer. But I don't want to spend 2k bucks for an apple. Do you really think the color reproduction of this monitor is excellent and suitable for my tasks?
@DesignedbyKirk

Definitely think the colour is great on the monitor and works well. Ultimately just falls short in resolution and convenience to be expected

Hi, I'm undecided whether to buy the Studio Display or the BenQ PD3225U. Can you give me an objective opinion? Comparing them, excluding the difference in resolution, which one wins in terms of contrast and color uniformity beyond the numbers on paper?
@DesignedbyKirk

Personally, I'd say it would purely come down to budget. The Studio Display in it's base form is almost 30% more expensive than the BenQ. As I said in the video, the BenQ doesn't make me want to replace my Studio Display. Beyond the numbers, I'd go for the Studio Display

I’d go with BenQ, I want a bigger screen. I know if go with Studio Display, it will be difficult to use a non-retina display and it's about time Apple needed to update their Studio Diispay. Currently using M1 iMac will see how good the BenQ display is. My general used it as a second monitor.

5:50 isn't that bug on MacOS and not the display?

No, I have no issues with this on any other display apart from this one. Could be a GPU error with this panel specifically though!

@@DesignedbyKirk huh that's weird, I think simple way to prove it is to screen record the bug, if it's showed up on the recording then it's MacOS' fault. "Why?" Most GPU related issue will be so much chaotic than that, usually they got dots, lines, and rainbow artifact. Monitor/panel related issues usually is not interactive. meaning that it can be triggered via software but not by just switching desktop/apps. Your cursor still showed up in the black/blank area, so it most definitely a software issue. it can be a bug in BenQ software, but it can also be a bug with MacOS (while I personally have never seen that one before lol)
