BenQ’s MOBIUZ EX2710 continues to serve gamers seeking an affordable 27-inch Full HD IPS display, balancing smooth motion, usable colour, and ergonomic features with strong value for money amid increasing competition.
BenQ’s MOBIUZ EX2710 sits in a familiar but still relevant part of the gaming monitor market: a 27-inch Full HD IPS display aimed at players who want smooth motion, usable colour and sensible pricing rather than high-resolution detail. The model’s appeal has long rested on that balance, and reviews from PCWorld and T3 both frame it as a value-focused option that delivers strong gaming performance without pushing into premium pricing territory. That makes it a straightforward choice for buyers who care more about playability and features than specification chasing.
At its core, the EX2710 combines a 1920 x 1080 panel, a 144Hz refresh rate and a 1ms response-time claim. PCWorld said that combination produces fluid motion in fast games, while also noting AMD FreeSync Premium support to reduce tearing when frame rates vary. T3 likewise highlighted HDRi, the 144Hz refresh rate and the monitor’s plain, functional design. In practice, those features place the EX2710 firmly in the mainstream of gaming monitors: quick enough for competitive play, but not trying to compete with more expensive high-resolution panels.
The monitor’s ergonomics are one of its more practical strengths. According to the supplied product information, the 27-inch EX2710 offers height and tilt adjustment, which is important on a screen of this size and resolution. That matters because a 1080p image stretched across 27 inches is not especially dense, so correct viewing distance and positioning help preserve clarity and reduce fatigue. For buyers who want a larger screen without moving up to QHD or 4K, the EX2710 remains attractive precisely because it focuses on fundamentals rather than overreaching.
The built-in audio is another area where BenQ has tried to make the desk setup simpler. PCWorld described the speakers as adequate, though still short of what a separate audio system can provide, and PC-Welt reached a similar conclusion, saying the monitor speakers compare well with others in the category but are still best regarded as a convenience. That assessment fits the broader design language of the EX2710: it is built to be self-contained, but not to replace dedicated peripherals for users who take sound seriously.
Context from other MOBIUZ models also helps define the EX2710’s place in BenQ’s line-up. Tom’s Hardware’s reviews of the EX2710Q and EX2710R show how the range extends upwards into QHD and curved VA territory, with higher-resolution panels, stronger contrast characteristics and, in those cases, more ambitious audio systems. The standard EX2710 is the simpler sibling: flatter, less detailed, but easier on price and system demands. For many gamers, that is the point. It offers the core MOBIUZ package without demanding a top-end graphics card or a larger desk footprint.
Taken as a whole, the EX2710 remains a sensible recommendation for players who want a dependable 27-inch gaming monitor at 1080p. It is not the sharpest screen in BenQ’s family, and it is not meant to be. Its value lies in the combination of fast refresh, adaptive sync, ergonomic adjustment and built-in speakers, all wrapped in a monitor that prioritises usable performance over showroom specifications. For buyers assembling a practical gaming setup on a budget, that is still a compelling proposition.
