BenQ EX251 Monitor, 24.5", IPS, FHD 1920x1080, 220Hz, 1ms, HDR, HDR400, AMD FreeSync - 9H.LN9LA.TBE

BenQ EX251 is a 24.5" gaming monitor aimed at more demanding players who want a high refresh rate without diving into an absurd budget. The IPS panel with FHD resolution 1920 x 1080 gives you a good balance between detail and performance, while 220 Hz and 1 ms response time are exactly what you are looking for in fast shooters and competitive titles. Add HDR and HDR400 support, and you get more vibrant colors and better dynamic range compared to standard SDR screens. AMD FreeSync helps you avoid tearing and stutter when the frames in the game fluctuate.

What you get

With a 24.5" diagonal and FHD 1920 x 1080 resolution, the load on the GPU is reasonable, which helps you more easily reach and maintain high 220 Hz in e-sports games. The IPS panel provides wide viewing angles of 178°/178°, so colors and contrast remain stable even if you are not exactly centered in front of the monitor. The brightness of 350 cd/m2 and static contrast 1000:1, combined with HDR/HDR400, give clearer details in dark and bright areas, which is a plus in scenes with many shadows. The Anti-Glare coating and LED backlighting ensure the image is readable even in brighter ambient light, without struggling with reflections. The 16:9 format and Wide screen type are standard for gaming and general use, so you won't encounter compatibility issues with games and applications.

• 24.5" IPS panel combines a decent screen size with accurate colors and stable image at various angles.
• FHD 1920 x 1080 resolution is optimal for high FPS in competitive games without requiring a beastly GPU.
• 220 Hz refresh rate provides very smooth motion and better target tracking in fast shooters and MOBA.
• 1 ms response time reduces motion blur and ghosting, which is important at high speeds.
• AMD FreeSync synchronizes frames between the monitor and GPU to reduce tearing and stutter.
• HDR and HDR400 support provide a wider dynamic range and more vibrant scenes in compatible games and movies.
• Anti-Glare coating and brightness of 350 cd/m2 help you see well even in brighter rooms, without annoying reflections.

Who it is suitable for

This monitor is suitable if you primarily play competitive titles (CS, Valorant, Overwatch, etc.) and want a high refresh rate and fast response without chasing 1440p or 4K. At the same time, it is perfectly fine for general use – movies, browsing, work – thanks to the IPS panel and Wide screen. If you are looking for a huge screen or ultra-high resolution for heavy productivity and detailed video/photo work, you may feel limited here.

The most sensible aspect of the BenQ EX251 is the combination of 220 Hz, 1 ms, and IPS panel in a compact 24.5" format – just enough for you to play fast and confidently, without unnecessary extras and inflated marketing.
