Price
Definitely worth considering if you’re on a budget!
For the price, this monitor is an absolute bargain.
Very cheap price for a monitor with a benq name.
I don't think i could find anything like that at around £75.
Packaging/appearance
Out the box it was five minutes to set up with the stand clicking into place.
This looks good brought as a birthday present for my nephew.
Competitiveness
Comparing to other screens in this price range for 100hz, this has a great build quality and performance.
Purchased this to match a more expensive benq monitor for a work set up.
The only difference between this and others i've found is the lack of freesync support but that is not worth the 60 pound difference.
I worried a bit because this looked a bit cheap compared to the other options i was seeing on amazon.

It’s not the greatest monitor out there but it’s certainly far from the worst
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Such monitors are in need of an external speaker soundbar recommended and the screen can be marginally wobbly if theres movement on the desk

Good size if you struggle with working directly from your laptop for long periods of time
