BenQ ZOWIE XL2566X+ eSports Gaming Monitor | 24.1 inch | 400 Hz | Fast TN | DyAc 2 | XL Setting to Share | S Switch | Shielding Hood | 1080p

Very easy to set up and a lot of versatility in how you can place and angle it. Additionally, the colours and colour options are great for a TN panel. Switching to standard or movie mode gives a good viewing experience. You can tell it's a 1080p panel when watching UHD videos or movies, but it's definitely not noticable when playing games. Fantastic brightness as well - I prefer my monitors to be set quite bright, and whereas other monitors are usually a bit dark for me, this one isn't. It still looks good with indirect sunlight in the room. As for CSGO - I got this monitor for high level CS and there is a clear difference between 144 and 240hz. It's not ground breaking, but it is definitely smoother and a lot easier to track opponents. The game is a lot more fluid with this monitor and lets you feel more comfortable taking 1v1s and rushing a site. The default monitor setting FPS 1 is specifically tailored for CSGO and makes it really easy to see through mollies. Don't get me wrong, the colour settings don't completely negate bad vision through molotovs, but it is a LOT easier to see enemies compared to other monitors I've used.

Bought Used, arrived loose in a damaged box and covered in dust all over, the monitor is absolutely fine & the best for counter strike however but if you’re thinking of buying used or new, you’re probably better off with new

I upgraded to the BenQ ZOWIE XL2566X+ eSports Gaming Monitor after the previous 240hz model died, and the difference is dramatic — especially if you’re serious about fast-paced games like FPS, racing, or action titles. Performance: This monitor feels built for competition. The 360 Hz refresh rate and lightning-fast response times make motion feel incredibly fluid and smooth. Once you experience how clean and instantaneous the visuals are when enemies or objects move quickly, it’s hard to go back to anything slower. Input latency feels negligible, and aiming/tracking feels more precise — which, on its own, has noticeably improved my confidence in fast engagements. Visual Quality: The 1080p resolution looks sharp at 24.5 inches, and the color reproduction is solid for everyday gaming and media. It isn’t a monitor for deep cinematic HDR visuals, but that’s not its purpose — this is optimized for competitive clarity and performance. The DyAc+ technology genuinely reduces perceived motion blur better than many other monitors I’ve used, and it’s especially noticeable during rapid camera swings or battlefield chaos. Build & Ergonomics: BenQ ZOWIE’s construction is robust and minimalistic — no RGB or distracting lights, just a matte black frame that stays out of the way. The adjustable stand allows for height, tilt, and swivel changes so you can dial in your ideal setup. The included shield attachments are a nice touch if you play in bright environments or want to minimize eye distraction during intense matches. Gaming Experience: Games feel more responsive overall. Multiplayer shooters feel tighter, and even in single-player titles the improved smoothness enhances immersion. Casual gamers might not need a 360 Hz panel, but if you’re competitive or play fast titles regularly, the upgrade is tangible. Summary: This isn’t simply a “fast monitor” — it’s a purpose-built tool for competitive play. If you want the smoothest motion, excellent responsiveness, and an edge in high-speed gaming, the BenQ ZOWIE XL2566X+ delivers exceptionally well. Worth the investment for serious gamers and eSports aficionados. Highly recommended.

Great monitor, will struggle to find great colour settings for your games at times but overall it’s 10/10 , might be. Little overkill since I only play 240hz

I had this monitor for roughly a week before I frustratingly had to return it. Xbox series X was a dream to play with this monitor, 1080p, 120hz with freesync enabled. Perfect for my needs with the Xbox. Great colours no smears in motion and extremely fast response time, almost crt like. Now with my gaming pc I just couldn’t get it to sync with gsync. It’s obviously a freesync monitor but all reviews I read online from reputable websites stated it works with gsync no problems but mine wouldn’t sadly which was a deal breaker for myself. This ergonomics of the monitor are exceptional as is build quality. And as I said for a TN panel the colours are very good in standard mode. Sadly my gsync problem was the only problem but big enough for me to return it.

Amazing product delivery was very quick all the nuts and bolts required were included. Very good

Bought refurbished As New Monitor worked great initially. However, after computer went to sleep and was woken, the screen was black and never came back on. The monitor had power and worked as button presses made sound and the PC detected it, but nothing on-screen. Tried new cables/ports, but nothing. Also, Shield and Remote were missing from package, unsure if this is intended to be sent with product? Have refunded for now.

Well what can I say this item is great easy to assemble and is able to tilt ,twist and to alter the eye line up or down my son is really pleased love the colour too with little bits of red .As the first item did go missing/not delivered , but Amazon have replaced this so we are all really pleased with it ,it came a little earlier than the other proposed date but that’s a good thing A happy gamer finally

good 👍

Çoğunlukla CS2 oynuyorum. 15.6" 144 Hz laptop ekranından sonra ilaç gibi geldi. Resmen oynayışım değişti

Went from a plat player for 8years to top 10 within a month of buying this monitor, great overall, insane viewing angles and i love the dual mode 600hz 1080p and 4k 120hz. You can play competitive and storymode, whatever u like.

S tier monitor for competitive fps shooters specifically CS 2, as of writing the review, my premier rank is 24k and 2.1k elo in Faceit SEA. although i could not tell if there was much difference in 360hz vs 400hz, the picture clarity is unmatched with DyAc2 (premium) & AMA(high). My unit has no coil whine or coating on the screen and im very happy with the purchase

It does for what is made for and that is top notch competitive fps experience, its buttery smooth with 0 motion blur and ghosting. Other things it will do the job but you will not die in picture beauty. well its TN xD
