27-inch 5K display for colour-critical work

The BenQ PD2730S is a 27-inch IPS monitor with a 5120 x 2880 resolution and 218 PPI pixel density. It covers 98% P3, 100% sRGB and 100% Rec.709 for accurate colour workflows. The 2000:1 contrast ratio and DisplayHDR 400 certification support VFX, animation and game design tasks. Height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustments suit long studio sessions.

Thunderbolt 4 single-cable limit at 60 Hz

Thunderbolt 4 delivers up to 90 W power, 40 Gbps bandwidth and video through one port. The panel runs at 60 Hz, so motion clarity is limited to that refresh ceiling. DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 provide alternative video paths without Thunderbolt power or daisy-chaining. The USB-C upstream port carries data only at 10 Gbps and does not supply video or charging.

5K pixel count fits timeline and asset panels

The 5120 x 2880 grid gives 77.8% more pixels than 4K, letting artists view 3D viewports, node graphs and reference images side by side. 400 cd/m² brightness and HDR10 handle bright highlights in graded footage. 90 W charging powers most ultraportables but falls short for high-draw workstations under sustained load. Three downstream USB ports at 4.5 W and 7.5 W each run peripherals, not power-hungry drives.

Questions about this item

Will the Thunderbolt 4 port charge my laptop while I work?

Yes, the Thunderbolt 4 connection supplies up to 90 W of power, enough for most thin-and-light laptops.

Does the monitor come with the cables I need for 5 K at 60 Hz?

A Thunderbolt 4 certified cable is required for full 5 K 60 Hz operation; standard USB-C cables will not deliver the necessary 40 Gbps bandwidth.

Can I use the built-in USB ports to charge my phone and tablet?

Two Type-A ports provide 4.5 W each and one Type-A plus one Type-C port provide 7.5 W each, suitable for phones and small tablets.
