SeekerBenQ PD3200U
It’s hard to imagine that there’s a monitor more ready to go out-of-the-box than the BenQ PD3200U. Not only does it look great and measure well, calibration is completely unnecessary. Though not billed as a professional display, it easily competes with the most expensive monitors we’ve reviewed. If you don’t need a factory-certified calibration or a wide-gamut, almost nothing else comes close. The Philips BDM3270 is similarly accurate but only offers QHD resolution. Ultra HD has come a long way since its super expensive introduction. For less than $1000, BenQ easily hits this one out of the park.

The ViewSonic VP2768 doesn’t represent the bleeding edge of color standards, but if all you need is sRGB and Rec.709, there are few better displays. And even fewer of those can match the VP’s excellent value. Despite a low price, it offers professional-grade build quality, precise factory calibration, and a clear, bright image courtesy of an up-to-date IPS/QHD panel. While some users may wish for DCI-P3 and HDR, adding those features will easily double the price of admission. Pros watching their budgets will want to give it a long, hard look.
