RD280U

Thanks for the comparison. That's one of the first things I noticed on my BenQ RD280UG, the matte coating does an excellent job balancing clarity and reflection dampening. I think it's very close to Apple's nano texture. Also love the BenQ 3:2 ratio - way more useful than 16:9.

Somehow nobody has mentioned the BenQ RD280UG Programming Monitor yet? It's brand new, and is specifically a 4:3 monitor with modern technology and features. Pretty much exactly what you're looking for.

After like 8 years of waiting for the perfect 3:2 monitor I settled for a Benq RD280U 4K+ 3:2 IPS 60hz. after having it for a couple of months I plan to get a second one. Ever since Microsoft launched the Surface Studio, I've wanted a 28" 3:2 monitor, I've been using a 3:2 laptop since the release o

I equipped the trading room users with BenQ RD280UG 3:2 aspect ratio monitors marketed to programmers. Two of those fit nicely on a standard desk, lots of vertical screen space. Perfect for Bloomberg Terminal (lots of small white fonts on black) . People stare at that for ten hours day and more, so

I really like my BenQ RD280U (use two of them side-by-side). They are a bit taller, which is great for Xcode.

Have you seen the new 28" BenQ RD280UG? 3840x2560(!!) vertical resolution at 28" in an aspect ratio pretty much perfect for use as a side monitor, and it's 120Hz. It also advertises a 2000:1 contrast ratio, which makes me think it's an IPS Black panel, similar to what's in the u4025qw. Going to grab

If coding is your main focus, I’d recommend the BenQ RD280U. IPS panels offer wider viewing angles and sharper text than VA, making them better for programming especially in portrait mode. The RD280U’s 3:2 aspect ratio, anti-glare screen, and eye-care features are designed for long coding sessions,

3:2 is the new 16:10, I run a BenQ 28.2" RD280U 4k+ (3840x2560) monitor, only catch is it's 60hz, but I don't play hyper competitive twitch shooters anymore. But as a workspace it's amazing, so for my usage it's perfect.

I agree. I have a 27" 5K , 32" 4K, and 40" 5K2K at different stations and for focused work, I prefer the 27" Studio Display. For work meetings and scattered work, the 32" size works well, but for focusing on a single task, 27" is my preference. Code editors are too wide with a 32" display as well. T

BenQ RD280U. Great for programmers.
