BenQ GW2486TC: An Exceptionally Feature-Rich Budget Monitor – by PCMag

Since 2004, I have worked on PCMag’s hardware team, covering at various times printers, scanners, projectors, storage, and monitors. I currently focus my testing efforts on 3D printers, pro and productivity displays, and drives and SSDs of all sorts.
