The BenQ EX271UZ is a 27-inch 4K OLED gaming monitor with a 240Hz panel and extremely high pixel density. Designed as part of the MOBIUZ range, it focuses on colour accuracy, contrast control, and motion clarity rather than raw esports styling. With a 166 PPI OLED panel, true blacks, and fast response, it’s aimed at players who care as much about visual intent and image depth as they do about speed.

- 27-inch 4K OLED panel with 166 PPI pixel density

4K OLED panel with extreme pixel density
At 27 inches, the EX271UZ packs a full 3840 xx2160 resolution into a relatively compact screen, resulting in a very high 166 PPI. In use, this makes fine textures, UI elements, and in-game typography appear clean and well defined without needing aggressive sharpening. OLED pixel-level control means there’s no haloing around bright objects, and black areas stay genuinely dark, which is especially noticeable in night scenes and high-contrast environments.
240Hz refresh with OLED response times
The combination of a 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.03 ms grey-to-grey response gives motion a distinctly solid feel. Fast camera pans remain clear, and small moving details stay readable without relying heavily on blur reduction tricks. This benefits competitive play, but it also helps open-world and cinematic titles feel smoother and more controlled, particularly when paired with variable refresh support.
Colour tuning and HDR behaviour
BenQ’s colour tuning is clearly aimed at preserving artistic intent rather than exaggerating saturation. With 99% DCI-P3 coverage and multiple colour modes including Display P3, sRGB, and Cinema HDR, the monitor allows you to choose how closely you want to stay to reference colour. HDR performance benefits from OLED contrast rather than sheer brightness alone, with up to 1000 nits peak in small highlights and accurate shadow separation under the DisplayHDR True Black 400 standard.
Connectivity, power delivery, and daily use
The EX271UZ includes HDMI 2.1 for modern consoles, DisplayPort for PC, and USB-C with up to 90W power delivery, making it practical as a single-cable setup for laptops. The built-in KVM switch lets you share keyboard and mouse across systems without extra hardware. Ergonomic adjustments cover height, tilt, and swivel, and the included remote control makes on-screen menu changes easier when switching inputs or colour modes.

FAQs:
Does the BenQ EX271UZ support full 4K 240Hz input?
Yes. When connected via DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC or HDMI 2.1, the monitor supports 4K resolution at up to 240Hz. This allows high frame rate gaming without dropping resolution, provided your GPU or console can output the signal.
How suitable is the EX271UZ for console gaming?
The monitor is well suited to current-generation consoles thanks to HDMI 2.1 support, variable refresh rate, auto low latency mode, and eARC. These features allow smooth gameplay, low input lag, and easy audio passthrough to external sound systems.
Is the OLED panel protected against burn-in?
BenQ incorporates OLED care features, including pixel shifting and panel protection routines, to reduce long-term image retention. Normal mixed-use gaming and desktop use should not pose issues when standard care practices are followed.
Can the monitor be used for colour-sensitive work as well as gaming?
Yes. With factory calibration, wide colour gamut support, and selectable colour spaces such as Display P3 and sRGB, the EX271UZ can comfortably handle creative tasks alongside gaming. The included calibration report gives confidence in out-of-box colour accuracy.
Does USB-C replace the need for a separate charger?
For many laptops, yes. The USB-C port provides up to 90W of power delivery while carrying display and data signals, allowing a single cable connection for video, charging, and peripheral access through the monitor’s USB hub.

Buy now pay later
The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
