27-inch 5K designer monitor

The BenQ PD2730S-R is a refurbished 27-inch IPS display with a 5120 x 2880 resolution at 60 Hz. It targets creative professionals who need 1.07 billion colours and HDR10 support for colour-critical work. The 2000:1 contrast ratio and 400 cd/m2 brightness help reveal detail in shadows and highlights. Buyers who want a higher refresh rate for competitive gaming should look elsewhere.

Thunderbolt 4 hub with 90 W charging

A single Thunderbolt 4 cable delivers video, data and up to 90 W of power to a connected laptop. The monitor also provides a downstream Thunderbolt 4 port rated at 15 W for peripherals. An integrated USB hub and built-in stereo speakers reduce desktop clutter. Users who require multiple high-power Thunderbolt devices may need an additional dock.

Ergonomic stand with VESA 100 option

The stand offers height, tilt, pivot and swivel adjustments for comfortable long sessions. A 100 x 100 mm VESA pattern allows wall or arm mounting when desk space is limited. HDMI and DisplayPort inputs sit alongside Thunderbolt 4 for legacy device connectivity. The 230 W internal power supply keeps cabling simple.

Questions about this item

When will the Thunderbolt 4 port that delivers 90 W to a laptop need servicing?

The Thunderbolt 4 port is a solid-state interface with no moving parts, so it does not have a scheduled replacement interval under normal use.

What thermal limit appears first during continuous 5K 60 Hz operation?

The 230 W power supply rating defines the maximum sustained draw; the monitor will throttle brightness before exceeding that envelope.

How loud is the cooling when the screen runs at 400 nits all day?

The unit uses passive cooling, so there is no fan noise regardless of brightness or workload.
