BenQ RD28 inch 4k+: amzn.to/3xEKjYX
BenQ RD24 inch: amzn.to/4cg6Wlu
In this video, we are going to take a look at the BenQ RD280UA. The 28" 4k+ rock solid monitor from BenQ. This monitor has a 3:2 aspect ratio making it amazing for programming day-to-day. Not to mention the colors, the crisp text, easy control over dark/light mode, and everything else. Let's see if this is as good as it shapes up to be.

MST isn't a proprietary BenQ method of daisy-chaining displays, it is just the Multi-Stream Transport in the DisplayPort spec.

Nice for the price but needs 5k at that size for sharp fonts. 164 PPI can't compete with Apple's 218. Create 21" high PPI square monitor with premium features, call it the BenQ VIM++ 21".

@ellipsis...1986 2 дня назад

If the argument that the taller 3:2 ratio is better I'd like to offer at a similar price point the 28MQ7xx series by LG in a 16:18. I've used one at a friend's office and if I could justify replacing my setup I would be very tempted.

@thomasrichards8055 2 дня назад

I’ve always gone for and recommended the Lenovo ThinkVision USB-c monitor, which similarly have awesome high-resolution, matte displays with USB-c; that might all change now after seeing this BenQ.

@GoldenBeholden 2 дня назад

I really like this aspect ratio, but the price for a 60 Hz non-OLED panel is a bit tough.

@dillonoconnor6770 2 дня назад

No one wants to program on an OLED (text clarity problems). 60hz is definitely weak, though.

@GoldenBeholden 2 дня назад

@@dillonoconnor6770 Really? Besides some ghosting when scrolling dark colours over one another (kinda like some VA panels), I've never had much issue with them.

@damnhatesyou День назад

@@dillonoconnor6770 I have the Phillips ultrawide OLED monitor and I do not notice any fringing or anything. Sure on the earlier OLED models you probably got it but on my display I have none that I can notice. And I’m programming all the time.

@tyafizi 2 дня назад

60hz is the dealbreaker

@2EOGIY 2 дня назад

Matte screen is not as good as mine. Glossy screens reflect very sharply at particular angles. Matte screens scatter light in every direction, which means glare is less noticeable, but it glares at any angle. Therefore, I prefer a glossy screen as I can set the light source out of the reflection angle and have much better contrast.

@XxZeldaxXXxLinkxX 2 дня назад

Set the light source... Yeah let me just move the sun elsewhere rq

@2EOGIY 2 дня назад

@@XxZeldaxXXxLinkxX if you have 1600W per square meter or per 10sqft shining into the screen then matte screen will makes it worse so yeah turn off the sun (use shutters)

@NightZ3r0 2 дня назад

Instant buy if it were high refresh rate (144hz+, though I could possibly live with 120). Don’t care if it increased the price. Am still waiting for such a monitor with at least 16:10 aspect ratio.

Hey typecraft , I know that you don’t review and compare programming languages , but as student I am confused between selecting c++ and rust. Please can you explain it to me which to use. (English is my second language sorry for any incorrect sentence)

@worldspam5682 2 дня назад

Bruh, use whatever you want. Don't become a language zealot like many rust users are, and just chill. Can't decide? Try both.

@bersK00 2 дня назад

try both, if you want a job in the near future start with c++

@geo_bla 2 дня назад

You're going to probably have to learn multiple languages at some point anyway so I'd say start with whichever one you find the most fun and keeps you motivated to continue learning! That being said, C++ will probably give you a better idea of manually doing the memory management that rust is doing behind the scenes for you.

@remyjardin8522 2 дня назад

total scam, gamer screens are 2x cheaper, for better specs. The selling point of this thing "it has cool menu lol" All others selling points are already on every screens, or are fake. "MST Thing" -> it's literraly the laptop that does everything, and it's out for more than 5 years.
