How to use the BenQ PD3226G 32 Inch Monitor

Colour-accurate setup and uniformity

The BenQ PD3226G is factory-calibrated to Delta E ≤ 2 accuracy with 95% DCI-P3 wide colour coverage, ensuring precise and consistent colour reproduction. BenQ AQCOLOR technology delivers ‘Accurate Reproduction’ through rigorous gamma, brightness, and temperature calibration testing, verified by an included factory calibration report. Third-party validation from Pantone and Calman ensures compliance with industry standards.

Corner-to-corner uniformity technology minimises brightness and colour shifts to maintain consistency across the display, which is essential for print, digital art, and video production. ICCsync automatically applies the correct ICC profile when switching colour modes, while Display ColorTalk synchronises colour representation across multi-monitor setups, ensuring seamless calibration for dual 4K 144Hz displays. For long-term accuracy, Palette Master Ultimate supports hardware calibration with X-Rite and Datacolor calibrators.

High-refresh display for motion clarity

The 144Hz refresh rate ensures fluid motion, reducing motion blur for precise animation, VFX, and game development. Real-time responsiveness is crucial for frame-by-frame animation, 3D modelling, and character rigging, where smooth playback enhances precision. Low-latency processing ensures immediate visual feedback, supporting tasks such as digital sculpting, rotoscoping, and real-time rendering previews.

Optimising connectivity for multi-device setups

The Thunderbolt 4 port supports 40Gbps data transfer, enabling seamless handling of high-resolution assets and real-time collaboration. With 90W power delivery, the monitor charges MacBooks, workstation laptops, and other USB-C devices. Daisy chaining extends the workspace across dual 4K 144Hz monitors, reducing cable clutter and supporting simultaneous editing, previewing, and asset management. The built-in KVM switch allows instant switching between two systems using a single keyboard and mouse, optimising setups for PC and Mac users.

Enhancing visibility for detailed design work

The nano matte panel minimises reflections and maintains uniform brightness, which is crucial for high-contrast image editing, CAD/CAM applications, and precise colour grading. This feature reduces glare in bright studio environments, improving fine-detail visibility. Display ColorTalk ensures accurate colour matching between monitors in multi-screen setups. Pantone SkinTone validation guarantees realistic skin tone reproduction, making it suitable for photographers, retouchers, and digital artists working with human subjects.

Display controls and ergonomic adjustments

Display Pilot 2 provides quick access to dual-view mode, ICC profile management, and desktop partitioning, optimising multi-application setups. The hotkey puck enables instant adjustments to brightness, contrast, and input sources, reducing menu navigation. M-book mode ensures Mac-to-monitor colour matching, eliminating discrepancies when working across MacBook and external displays. iKeyboard Control allows Mac users to adjust brightness directly from their keyboard.

For long-term comfort, the PD3226G features an adjustable stand with tilt (-5° to 20°), swivel (±30°), pivot (90°), and height adjustment (150mm). These features allow precise positioning for photo retouching, video editing, and UI/UX design. TÜV-certified low blue light mode and flicker-free technology reduce eye strain, making extended use more comfortable.

FAQs:

Does the BenQ PD3226G support HDR content?

Yes, the PD3226G supports HDR10 and is VESA DisplayHDR 400 certified. This feature ensures improved brightness, contrast, and colour accuracy for HDR-compatible content. However, as DisplayHDR 400 is an entry-level HDR standard, it provides enhanced highlights but does not offer the full dynamic range seen in higher-tier HDR displays.

Can the BenQ PD3226G be wall-mounted?

Yes, the PD3226G is VESA 100x100 mm compatible, allowing users to mount it on various monitor arms and wall mounts. When users remove the base, the monitor weighs 7 kg, making it suitable for most standard VESA mounts.

What inputs does the PD3226G have?

The monitor includes HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and Thunderbolt 4 for high-bandwidth video and data transfer. It also supports USB Type-C (10Gbps) and USB Type-A downstream ports for peripheral connectivity. Thunderbolt 4 allows daisy chaining, enabling dual 4K 144Hz monitor setups through a single connection.

Does the PD3226G have built-in speakers?

Yes, the monitor includes dual 3W speakers for basic audio output. While sufficient for general use, external speakers or headphones are recommended for high-fidelity audio work. A headphone jack is also available for direct audio monitoring.
