Our take
At $79.99, the BenQ ZOWIE XL2720 is an affordable entry into 144Hz gaming. The 27-inch 1080p display with 1ms response time delivers smooth motion for fast-paced games. I appreciate the tiltable stand and anti-glare coating. However, the LCD panel has limited viewing angles compared to IPS, and the 300 cd/m² brightness is just average. VGA input is dated. If you're on a tight budget and prioritize speed over image quality, this monitor gets the job done.
