Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert

This monitor has High Dynamic Range (HDR), which ensures a broader color rendering and higher contrasts
The curved design gives a panoramic effect, which ensures better color reproduction.
Works well with the MacBook (12 inches) because of the USB-C connection.
This monitor doesn't have integrated speakers to play music or hear movie sounds.
The base of this monitor is large and doesn't fit on every desk.

Description

The BenQ EX3501R is a 35-inch ultrawide curved monitor that displays intense colors and black levels, thanks to HDR color technology, so you'll see true-to-life colors when editing photos and videos. Thanks to its 21:9 aspect ratio, this monitor has 33% more screen space than a 'regular' widescreen monitor, so you can easily work on your graphic design projects in several windows at the same time. Because this is a curved screen, you won't have to move your eyes along the monitor as much, so they won't be as strained after a long day at work. You can play your newly edited corporate videos or games such as Battlefield 1 smoothly, thanks to the 100Hz refresh rate, and the VA panel will display them accurately from all angles in a high resolution of 3440x1440.

Note: for QHD gaming, you need a powerful video card, such as an NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPU or AMD Radeon RX 5000 series GPU, an Xbox One, Xbox Series X or S, or a PlayStation 5.

Review is 9,2 out of 10.

top monitor after calibration but not vesa compatible

Bright sharp screen
100hz (oc up to 110hz)
nice design
gigantic

Top screen for the price, looks very nice on your desk. Note that it takes up quite a bit of space, the legs are also quite long (calculate a length of 83 cm and a depth of 23 cm). image quality is good, it goes more than bright enough. Calibration is recommended because the colors are not really accurate out of the box.

a few things to keep in mind:

1 and the monitors)

2.) an important point about VESA mounts: both coolblue and benQ indicate that the monitor is VESA compatible. well that is also the case if you purchase an adapter of 30 euros (BenQ vesa adapter kit). This kit has been out of stock for a long time and according to a BenQ support (can be found on the BenQ forum) the manufacturer that supplied the kits has gone bankrupt. In other words: the monitor is currently NOT VESA compatible (by the way, I think it is a bit misleading advertising, if it is vesa compatible it must be compatible out of the box, not after purchasing a kit) there is a 3d mold available. find on the internet; that you can print yourself.

Top screen, worthy upgrade!

Beautiful screen
Good build quality
USB hub
Just a little too low

Nice size screen with beautiful colors. The extra pixels (compared to 1080p) and higher refresh rate really help with a better gaming experience. Can also enjoy the environments a lot better this way.

Also for work-related things, the switch to 1440p was a good choice. The extra space comes in handy in many programs. And the USB hub helps a lot in keeping my desk tight.

I can't say much about HDR. I have yet to properly test this in several games. Seems to do its thing at least so far, but it doesn't make a world of difference.

The screen is a bit on the low side for me (I'm fairly tall), but a monitor stand underneath solves this and immediately keeps the desk more organized.

Also, the resolution of 1440x3440 can sometimes cause some problems with games. However, in almost all cases there is a (simple) fix for this, but it can be a thing for those who are not really technical.

All in all, highly recommended. Am very satisfied with my purchase.
