The Best LED Choices All Around
Set to satisfy every consumer, every lifestyle, and every application, BenQ’s comprehensive V Series offers multiple models across four size categories:

• 18.5”W - V920 / V920P
• 21.5”W - V2220 / V2220P / V2220H / V2220HP
• 23.0”W - V2320
• 24.0”W - V2420 / V2420H

Among these size segments, BenQ’s display expertise and progressive design philosophy enable these premium V models to dominate in thinness (14mm on the 18.5”W models; 15mm on all other models), energy efficiency 44%^ (lower power consumption), and DCR (unrivaled at 10M:1) Likewise, for Internet, work, or TV/video applications, all V displays surpass expectation by compounding the latest in LED backlighting technology with BenQ advancements. Bold, dynamic images rendered in razor-sharp, blur-free clarity testify to the monitors’ zero light leakage, ultra-extreme DCR, and prowess in displaying super bright whites, ultra-intense blacks, and near-infinite color variations on the 250-nit screens. Graphs, charts, and fonts are consequently clean and crisp; video is smooth and vivid; and endless hours of Internet surfing are comfortable on the eyes without strain, flicker, or fatigue.

The V Series is further set apart by proprietary Senseye Human Vision Technology, which amplifies image richness, clarity, and depth, even for the darkest scenes. Senseye 3 six preset modes give users the luxury of one-touch optimization for the most popular applications: Game, Movie, sRGB, Standard, Photo, and Eco (ideal in darker settings, saving up to 65.6%^ energy consumption without compromising visuals). Additionally, Senseye perfects display by dynamically adjusting contrast, brightness, and backlighting to fit the viewing environment. Independent color management further adds dimension and realism to images by purifying and enhancing each hue without compromise to others. Today’s on-demand consumer will likewise appreciate the V Series’ ability to instantly display content when powered up, another benefit of LED over CCFL technology. DVI and D-Sub equip all models while HDMI 1.3 and headphone jack are available on models designated with an “H”. Displays having a “P” in the model name are glare panel.
