Product Features
Technical Overview
The SW272U incorporates advanced color management tools including hardware calibration via BenQ's Palette Master Element software, allowing direct calibration to the monitor's internal 3D Lookup Table (LUT). This bypasses GPU color tables for consistent color across applications and system restarts. The AQCOLOR technology ensures wide gamut performance while maintaining color accuracy.
Connectivity includes two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort, and a USB-C port with 90W power delivery for single-cable connectivity to compatible laptops. The integrated USB 3.1 hub provides four downstream ports (two USB 3.1, one USB Type-B upstream, one USB Type-C) for peripheral connectivity. HDCP support enables protected content playback from streaming services and Blu-ray sources.
