According to our monitor expert
The BenQ SW271 is a 27-inch 4K 10-bit HDR monitor for photographers, with an included screen hood. This screen has a 99% coverage of the Adobe RGB color space and supports hardware calibration. This allows you to precisely calibrate your screen to show the exactly right colors. Additionally, the SW271 has a high contrast ratio, so colors can easily be distinguished from each other. The Hotkey Puck on the screen stand allows you to effortlessly switch between Adobe RGB, sRGM, and black-white modes. Connect 2 PCs and you can look at two color spaces beside each other on the screen with GamutDuo. Thanks to the 4K resolution of 3840x2160 pixels, you've got more work space in the height of your screen than with a Full HD monitor and you can watch 4K videos the way they were intended. Note: As a result of 4K resolution, text and icons become smaller, which you can't always enlarge. For a 4k output, you need a modern laptop or PC with a fairly powerful video card. Make sure it has at least a DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 2.0, or Thunderbolt 3 connection.

In my opinion a very good monitor for image editing in this price range. But you have to do some research to get the most out of this display. The manual of the supplied software is mediocre. The latest software version is also buggy (July 2019). Better to use Palettemaster version 1.3.3 instead of version 1.3.5. The blog of the Australian site of imagescience has a complete guide on how to properly calibrate this monitor. Most Youtube videos about this monitor are best left aside. I have a maximum delta E of 1.08 and an average delta E of 0.57 after a "quick calibration" these are excellent values. Definitely an alternative to Eizo, NEC. Don't forget to purchase a display calibrator. Have a good week and am very satisfied with the performance of this display for editing photos in LR/ACR and PS

Good image quality, sturdy screen, ... Ideal for demanding users. I personally find the disadvantage that brightness, ... cannot be set from the Macbook Pro. The scaling is also not recognized properly, so you have to adjust it. Nevertheless, recommended!
