BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:very flimsy build quality

Pros:lightweight, great clarity
Comment:
Just bought it and went to install it on a VESA mount and one of the screw holes stripped while inserting the screw, and then later broke.Other than the shady build quality, screen looks great and great video quality.

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:Bad placement of buttonsDead/stuck pixelsWeak speakers

Pros:Good brightness and contrast Base that includes tilt
Comment:
You get 100% what you would expect out of this monitor. Good color, response time, etc. 24 inches is a great size.The buttons to control the monitor are in a terrible place. (Behind the monitor where you cannot see) Monitor also takes a good ~10 seconds to boot and show the output. (On HDMI)Speakers are weak, my smartphone are louder and more clear.Mine did come with 1 dead pixel, but that is just my luck.

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:All ports face downward

Pros:Great color and contrastLooks stylish
Comment:
Really happy with the monitor. Goes beyond what I was expecting when it came to displaying. Ports facing downwards makes it annoying to plug inputs in without laying the monitor down flat.

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:Only includes a VGA cable. Higher-end monitors like this should come with a DVI cable. The shiny base is a scratch and fingerprint magnet.

Pros:Good response time, decent brightness and a fair price (especially on sale).
Comment:
This monitor is quite decent for what you pay; the colours are nice (obviously not as good as an IPS display, but you can't get those in these response times) The only legitimate complaint that I have is that this monitor DOES NOT come with a DVI cable- which makes honestly no sense. DVI cables should come standard with any monitor above $100, especially if you plan on using it for gaming.As a personal preference, I hate glossy bases. They are prone to getting scratched up, and attracts dust worse than a magnet attracts iron shavings. I would have preferred if it were matte black.All in all, I am only taking a star off for the lack of a DVI cable. Sorry, BenQ, but it should be standard.

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:Not that I could think of

Pros:Good, affordable gaming monitor
Comment:
I'm a simple guy wanting a good and reasonable priced gaming monitor. I don't need fancy specs with the Samsung and their IPS PLS panel stuff along with other brands. I'm loving this monitor, plug and play, and easily installation.

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:don't really have any

Pros:cheap price ~and big screen
Comment:
1) This is the perfect size. 24" is not too big and not too small, both for gaming and video editing work. You don't have to move your head to see the whole screen, but it really fills your field of view.2) Freakin' beautiful display. I had no dead pixels and with a few tweaks using the basic Windows calibration, I'm extremely satisfied with the colors and clarity. For under $159.99 I don't think it gets much better on a TN panel. And response time is fast.3) Input options and built in monitor menu options are really good. Nothing to write home about, but it's what you need on a monitor like this.4) It's BenQ.Cons: I don't really have any. At this price point you don't usually expect to get tilt, height adjust, etc, so I don't call the lack thereof a con.Other Thoughts: If this is your budget, get this monitor. If you have $200 to spend, there are other fantastic options, and BENQ makes several of those. This review was modfied by poster @ 10-01-14 09:47 AM

BenQ GL2460HM 24IN Widescreen LED 1920x1080 2ms HDMI DVI VGA Gaming Monitor
Cons:Speakers

Pros:Price! easy set up, slim bezel, 2 ms refresh
Comment:
The HD gaming has been really awesome esp. with newer games and the 2 ms refresh is decent enough for FPS's. I also have the Pro gaming League Benq RL2455HM, and i like this one better. Would buy again.
