BenQ EW2430
Incorporating white light emitting diodes (WLED) into the backlight of an LCD monitor was once truly innovative – nowadays it’s about as creative as a house with a front door.

Eizo Duravision fdh3601 a 36.4” monitor with qfhd+resolution
Eizo is set to launch a rather eye-opening, eye-popping and outrageously lustworthy PC monitor with such a high resolution that we had to make up a name for it.
