BenQ PD2730S 5K Designer Monitor Review

Apple may have a fight on its hands in the 27-inch 5K display space. Recently we've seen a solid budget competitor to the 1,600+ Apple Studio Display arrive on the market with the 799 ASUS ProArt 5K Display, and now here we have the BenQ PD2730S, part of the company's Designer Series that promises "always accurate and consistent colors."

Price-wise, this monitor sits 400 either side of the Apple and ASUS offerings at 1,200. As you'd expect, it packs more features than the cheaper ASUS display. For a start, it's Thunderbolt 4. But the extra capabilities don't end there. I've spent several weeks with it, putting it through its paces alongside an Apple Studio Display. So how did it fare?
