BenQ has introduced the new PD2732U, a 27-inch 4K Creative Pro monitor designed for professionals who need high color accuracy.
BenQ announced on July 6, 2026 the evolution of its Creative Pro lineup, led by the new PD2732U, a 27-inch 4K monitor aimed at graphic designers, photographers, content creators, video editors and professionals working in print and packaging.
The importance of the new model lies in BenQ’s attempt to offer a single reference display for different workflows, from web and video to print, with an emphasis on color consistency from screen to final deliverable.
27 inches, 4K and wide color coverage
The BenQ PD2732U features 4K resolution and covers 99% Adobe RGB, 99% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB. The company positions the model as a solution for professionals who need to accurately preview material for web, video and print within the same workspace.
Adobe RGB coverage is particularly important for photography, publishing, print and CMYK workflows, where accurate color representation can directly affect the final result.
Each unit is factory calibrated and ships with a calibration report, while BenQ states an average Delta E of less than 2.
AQCOLOR and edge-to-edge uniformity
The new monitor is based on BenQ’s AQCOLOR technology, which focuses on three key areas: uniformity, consistency and accuracy.
According to the company, the PD2732U uses calibration processes and quality controls designed to reduce brightness and color deviations across the entire panel. Corner-to-corner uniformity correction aims to help professionals evaluate color with greater confidence, reducing the chance of revisions during production.
AQCOLOR Pilot, scheduled to become available in early August, will support hardware and software calibration management for long-term color accuracy.
Certifications for professional use
The BenQ PD2732U is Calman Verified and Pantone Validated, including Pantone SkinTone Validation. These certifications indicate that the monitor has been tested for accurate color and skin tone reproduction, which is especially relevant for photographers, video creators, designers and content production professionals.
With these features, BenQ aims to position the Creative Pro series as a reliable reference choice for creators who rely on predictable and stable color.
Connectivity and Mac-focused features
The PD2732U includes Thunderbolt 4, supporting video, data and power delivery through a single cable. It also supports Smart KVM and daisy chain, allowing users to control multiple systems or expand their setup with additional displays.
For Mac users, the monitor offers M-book Mode, which aims to reduce the visual difference between a Mac display and the external monitor. It also includes iDevice Color Sync for more accurate previews of iPhone and iPad content, as well as iKeyboard Control for adjusting brightness and volume directly from Mac keyboards.
The feature set also includes the wireless Hotkey Puck, which provides quick access to color modes, display settings and frequently used functions.
Availability and price
The BenQ PD2732U is available for pre-order in the US with an MSRP of $699. The company also mentions a bundle with BenQ’s Ergo Arm, offering a $50 discount.
The monitor will be available for purchase from July 22 through B&H Photo Video and BenQ, while from September 1 it will also be available through Amazon and selected retail partners.
What we think
The BenQ PD2732U appears to target creators who are not simply looking for a good 4K monitor, but for a more complete color reference tool. Adobe RGB and DCI-P3 coverage, certifications, factory calibration and Thunderbolt 4 make it an interesting option for photographers and imaging professionals, especially if its eventual European pricing remains competitive.
