BenQ PD2720U 4K UHD IPS Monitor

Beautiful monitor at this price point with sturdy metal base.
I was looking for 10-bit/color photo/video editing suitable 4k monitors with Thunderbolt/USB-C connectivity. And it's amazing monitor.
Solid metal base and stand, not wobbly, looks premium and not cheap.
The stand gives you nice 360 degree adjustment.
Internal speakers aren't any better than a Macbook's.

Great for professional work 3D/ Editing/ Video Work. Lots of ports including Thunderbolt 3.
Good choice of external ports, has USB-C support.
It is a very nice 4k monitor with Lots of ports including 2 thunderbolt 3 ports.
Upon unboxing it and connecting it via HDMI, for whatever reason the monitor showed my desktop for a few seconds then proceeded to go dark, power was still on.
The highly unpractical placement of the USB ports in the back.
