Anyone who has designed a product label, then opened the same file for a website banner, knows the pain. Colours that look perfect on one screen turn dull or oversaturated on another. Designers usually solve this by keeping two monitors on the desk, one tuned for print, one tuned for digital. BenQ has just given creators a reason to give up that second monitor.
The company has launched the PD2732U Creative Pro Monitor in India, a 27-inch 4K display built specifically to handle print and digital colour work on the same screen, at a launch price of INR 74,499.

What Makes the PD2732U Different
Most monitors are tuned for one job. Gaming monitors chase refresh rate. Office monitors chase brightness. The PD2732U is tuned for colour accuracy across two very different worlds: print and digital.
It does this by covering 99% Adobe RGB, the colour space printers and packaging houses rely on, alongside 99% P3, 100% sRGB and Rec.709, the spaces used for websites, social media and video. In simple terms, a colour space is just the range of shades a screen can display. A wider colour space means richer, more accurate colours, which matters a lot when a printed brochure needs to match what a client approved on screen.
According to Rajeev Singh, Managing Director, BenQ India, creative professionals often juggle different displays because each medium demands a different colour environment. The PD2732U is built to remove that juggling act by combining both requirements into one monitor.
Built on BenQ AQCOLOR Technology
The colour performance comes from BenQ’s AQCOLOR technology, and the spec sheet backs it up:
| Feature | What It Offers |
|---|---|
| Adobe RGB coverage | 99% |
| P3 coverage | 99% |
| sRGB and Rec.709 coverage | 100% |
| Factory colour accuracy | Average Delta E of 2 or lower |
| Uniformity | BenQ Uniformity Technology across the panel |
| Certifications | Pantone Validated, Pantone SkinTone Validated, Calman Verified |
| Calibration support | AQCOLOR Pilot with compatible calibrators |
Delta E is worth explaining since it shows up a lot in monitor specs. It measures how far a colour on screen strays from the actual colour value it is supposed to show. A lower number means less deviation, and anything at or below 2 is considered accurate enough that most people cannot spot the difference with the naked eye. Getting this out of the box, without manual calibration, is what separates a creative pro monitor from a regular office display.
BenQ Uniformity Technology tackles a separate but related problem. Even accurate panels can show slightly different brightness or colour at the edges compared to the centre. This tech compensates for that variation, which matters when retouching a photo that will later be reviewed edge to edge on a printed page.
Designed for How Creators Actually Work
Colour accuracy alone does not make a workstation monitor. The PD2732U also focuses on connectivity and workflow.
- Thunderbolt 4: Delivers up to 40Gbps of bandwidth and 90W of power through a single cable, so a compatible laptop can charge and display through one connection.
- Thunderbolt 4 Daisy Chain: For Mac devices with M3 or later chips, this allows a second display to be added through the PD2732U itself, useful for anyone building a dual-monitor creative setup without extra cables running to the laptop.
- Built-in KVM switch: Lets one keyboard and mouse control two connected computers, handy for creators who split work between a personal and a work machine.
- Wireless Hotkey Puck G3: A physical dial for quickly switching colour modes, inputs, brightness and contrast without digging through on-screen menus.
- Display Pilot 2: Software for controlling the monitor directly from the desktop.
- Nano Matte Black Panel: Cuts down reflections while keeping blacks deep, useful in rooms with windows or overhead lighting.
- Ergonomic stand: Supports height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment for long editing sessions.
For anyone doing photography, branding, video editing, packaging design or print production, this combination means fewer trips between monitors and fewer surprises when a design moves from screen to physical output.

Accessories Worth Pairing With It
A colour-accurate monitor works best alongside the right accessories, especially for anyone planning to calibrate it regularly or mount it for a cleaner desk setup.
| Accessory | Why It Helps |
|---|---|
| Monitor arm or desk mount | Frees up desk space and makes it easier to adjust height and angle for long sessions |
| Colorimeter or calibration device | Works with AQCOLOR Pilot for ongoing colour maintenance beyond factory calibration |
| Thunderbolt 4 cable | Ensures full 40Gbps bandwidth and 90W charging is actually delivered to a laptop |
| USB-C hub with card reader | Useful for photographers importing shots directly from a camera card while editing |
Who This Monitor Actually Suits
The PD2732U is built for a specific kind of user: someone whose work does not stay in one medium. Graphic designers preparing packaging, photographers delivering both prints and social content, and video editors working across formats will feel the benefit of not switching displays mid-project. Casual users who only browse or stream will not need this level of colour precision, and a standard 4K monitor would serve that use case just fine.
For creative teams and freelancers juggling both digital and print deliverables, the PD2732U replaces what used to be a two-monitor problem with a single, factory-calibrated screen.
