BenQ RD280UA 28-inch 4K+ Programming Monitor with Backlight and Arm Summary
With a BenQ Ergo Arm included programmers and coding professional can enjoy enhanced flexibility with optimal screen positioning with the BenQ RD280UA 28-inch 4K+ Programming Monitor with Backlight and Arm. The desktop monitor provides a more comfortable and productive user experience, especially when combined with BenQ’s brilliant glare-free Nano Matte Panel technology found in the RD280UA.
The screen’s design is made for programmers who want to boost focus and productivity, with a Nano Matte Panel which minimises reflections, reduces distractions and creates a more comfortable viewing experience, especially during long coding sessions. This sets it apart from designer-focused screens such as the BenQ PD2705Q 27-inch 2K QHD sRGB HDR10 USB Type-C Designer Monitor, which prioritises colour accuracy over text-heavy work.
Advanced coding modes that sharpen fonts and enhance contrast, make it easier to differentiate between multiple lines of code with the BenQ RD280UA. Built-in dark and light themes also allow for seamless switching between different environments, helping to reduce your eye fatigue in any situation. Users can also fine-tune brightness, sharpness, and contrast for personalised comfort to suit their work environment.
BenQ’s MoonHalo backlight system features customisable lighting with adjustable colour temperature, brightness, and auto-dimming, which is powered by B.I. Gen2. This ensures that no matter where or when you're working on, your eyes remain protected.
Display Pilot 2 software puts control in your hands, letting you manage functions like MoonHalo, shortcuts, desktop partitioning, and more, which makes this an ideal choice for coding professionals who need a monitor that enhances focus, clarity, and comfort.

This helps to ensure that your eyes remain comfortable during long working hours, mirroring the natural rhythm of light from sunrise to sunset.
Boost Efficiency with Display Pilot 2 Shortcuts
With Display Pilot 2, you can bind frequently used functions to hotkeys, and it even allows you to remember two sets of content simultaneously. This feature significantly enhances multitasking and copying and pasting tasks, streamlining your workflow.

Seamless Connectivity and Daisy Chaining
For users seeking seamless integration, BenQ monitors provide an array of port options, including USB Type-C for all-in-one connectivity.

However, note that Mac® devices support daisy chaining only via Thunderbolt and not through HDMI or standard USB ports.

Eye Comfort and Blue Light Protection
BenQ prioritises eye health with features such as Night Hours Protection, which reduces eye strain by adjusting brightness for night-time use, and Brightness Intelligence Gen2 (B.I. Gen2), which automatically detects ambient light and fine-tunes the screen brightness. Certified by TÜV Rheinland, the RD280UA reduces reflections and minimises blue light while maintaining vibrant colours, ensuring that your eyes stay protected during long work sessions.
