Calibration is crucial and any colourist must know the ins and outs of their color space & gamma pipeline. And in order to do that, having a well calibrated display with proof of calibration is a must. Of course you can get great results without that too but in a professional environment, it's not passable. But to add some value instead of just criticism, I do own BenQ displays and I can confirm that the factory calibration on these benq displays (that come with a calibration report) are incredibly good. My display had a maximum ∆E of less than 3 average ∆E of around 2.5 straight out of factory. That's very good for any consumer grade display. However, what's more impressive is that after calibration I got my display's max ∆E down to 0.87 & average to 0.37. To the uninitiated, ∆E is essentially the deviation of colours from what they're supposed to be and anything below 2 is really good. Over 3 becomes noticeable with the average naked eye. 4 and above is no good for colour grading at most levels of proficiency. Max ∆E of less than 1 is expected from a professional colorist's displays. That said ∆E at just the center of the display is not the end all be all measurement. Professional reference displays cost so much because, among other factors, they have to have that same colour accuracy from corner to corner while also being able to maintain the gamma curve throughout.

Thanks for your information, it's very valuable and good to know. 100% of my content is viewed by people just using internet browsers and apps on their devices, phones and laptops etc. So once it looks good on those devices, it's fine by me. I'm not grading for Cinema or even TV. I know by looking at the monitor if the colour and dynamic range is decent and BenQ did state that the factory calibration was good enough. If I had more spare cash, I'd invest in a serious pro monitor just to have it. Calibrating these monitors seems to be a black art and I've seen a lot of people struggle with it, so I guess I'll leave it until I feel it's not 100% right. I explained to BenQ that my knowledge of monitors and calibrating is very limited as I always used to just edit on a Mac screen but they told me that they wanted 'average daily users' to try their products so they were happy with my review(s). However, I've decided not to review monitors in the future because I just feel I don't know enough about them. So this 2 year old review might be the last.

@@HuFilms Yeah , I am dissapointed with every single office / professional monitor "reviews" being ridiculously shallow , no exceptions . Really , the only properly in-depth monitor reviews I can find are the monitors with high refresh rate . People actually tested gaming monitors to see if it can be used for productivity (such as color grading) tasks . And yet professional monitors , built exactly for that purpose , are being gimped with these advertisements disguised as "reviews" . Also , I cannot find even a single PD2725U proper in-depth review to this day .

it isn't though.
Perfect for color grading but he doesn’t color calibrate his monitors. What a joke.
Your review is terrible . You did not even once try to measure the brightness / color gamut or accuracy of the monitor . You did not even try to check the backlight bleed . All you did is just read through the specs sheet and marketing blurbs and blindly pass it without verifying it with tests . Well , at least you tried comparing it to other screens being the iMac .

Thank you for your comment. All I can do is review it based on my knowledge of monitors which at the moment, isn't overly in-depth as I'm not a professional colourist and only produce work for the web. I currently don't have equipment to do detailed analysis you're looking for on colour accuracy or calibration. I hope you find a more fulfilling review to meet your needs in regards to this monitor.

@@HuFilms Yeah , I am dissapointed with every single office / professional monitor "reviews" being ridiculously shallow , no exceptions . Really , the only properly in-depth monitor reviews I can find are the monitors with high refresh rate . People actually tested gaming monitors to see if it can be used for productivity (such as color grading) tasks . And yet professional monitors , built exactly for that purpose , are being gimped with these advertisements disguised as "reviews" . Also , I cannot find even a single PD2725U proper in-depth review to this day .
