#2 in Budget Monitors · Rated 4.5
Budget 1080p 165Hz gaming monitor with HDRi.
BenQ EX240N is a compact 24-inch gaming-oriented display in the MOBIUZ line that blends solid color quality with a fast, responsive experience. It delivers 1080p resolution, up to 165 Hz refresh, 1 ms MPRT, and FreeSync Premium to minimize screen tearing. HDRi technology optimizes color and clarity automatically, while features like Light Tuner and Black eQualizer help visibility in dark scenes. Built-in 2W speakers add convenience, though most users will still opt for external audio. The EX240N targets budget-conscious gamers who want a competitive edge without paying for high-end 1440p/4K panels. It’s also suitable for general productivity at 1080p thanks to its crisp image, strong contrast, and relatively compact footprint. Compared with pricier gaming monitors, EX240N emphasizes value and speed over ultra-high resolutions or elaborate local dimming, making it an attractive choice for esports beginners and casual players alike.
