BenQ Announces Their CES 2016 Lineup

GAMING: ZOWIE Gear
BenQ will demonstrate its dedication to eSports by introducing ZOWIE as its new gaming brand. Under the ZOWIE identity, BenQ will continue to offer premium professional gaming products now including mice, mouse pads, and accessories, in addition to award-winning monitors. The new ZOWIE-branded eSports devices will focus on ergonomics and personalization to provide innovations that truly enhance player performance.  
LIFESTYLE & GAMING: Monitors


BenQ’s new VZ2470 minimalist monitor, planned for release in January 2016, will be shown for the first time at CES. Featuring a head-turning asymmetrical design, the modern device combines an ultra-slim bezel and an all-white elegant exterior. With a 3000:1 contrast ratio, 4ms GTG response time, and BenQ’s Eye-Care technology, the new display makes computer use comfortable and strikingly beautiful in a variety of today’s multipurpose settings.
On display will be the best-in-class XR3501 curved screen. With a 2000R curvature — the highest of any LCD panel — the monitor offers an immersive gaming experience like no other product in the marketplace. Featuring a 144Hz refresh rate, extra-wide 21:9 aspect ratio, and the company’s RevolutionEyes™ technology, the 35-inch device brings enhanced visual comfort, a larger viewing area, and seamless peripheral views for a more authentic sense of engagement with any fast-action content, especially racing and flight simulation scenarios.

 

The ultimate gaming monitor, the XL2730Z, will also be demonstrated at CES. Packed with features like QHD 2560×1440 resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms GTG response time, Adaptive Sync, Gaming Refresh-rate Optimization Management (GROM); in addition to BenQ’s exclusive technologies: RevolutionEyes™, ZeroFlicker™, motion blur reduction, low blue light, Black eQualizer, and more, the XL2730Z enables gamers to customize their experience according to viewing preferences to easily adjust refresh rates, display resolutions, and screen sizes. The result is the most powerful gaming monitor yet, giving gamers the precise control, intuitive setup, and visual comfort to dominate every game.
HOME ENTERTAINMENT: Projectors

Sensational home entertainment no longer needs to break the family budget. With BenQ’s recently released Colorific™ projectors — the HT4050 and HT3050, and the budget-friendly HT2050 — homeowners can elevate the home-theater experience to a whole new level and enjoy full HD 1080p movies, TV shows, sporting events, and action-packed video games on the big screen. The CinematicColor™ Rec. 709 models (HT3050 and HT4050) reproduce the exact color palette used by Hollywood studios to master movies and TV programs, bringing movie-theater quality and true-to-life colors right to the home. 
PORTABLE AUDIO: treVolo
Since its first showcase at CES 2015, treVolo continues to win over music connoisseurs looking to appreciate every detail in their portable device. The uniquely designed treVolo — the world’s first electrostatic Bluetooth speaker — delivers sonic brilliance with unparalleled highs and accurate bass. Using electrostatic technology, the device ensures that every musical nuance is heard crisply and cleanly using main electrostatic drivers that emit sound in multiple directions. Equipped with dual woofers and dual passive radiators for authentic bass tones, treVolo also features a quad-amplified design that optimizes driver output for maximum performance. treVolo lets music take flight for up to 12 hours on a single charge.
