BenQ Launches Innovative RD280U Monitor for Developers

BenQ has introduced the RD280U monitor, the latest addition to its RD Series, which is the first-ever range of monitors specifically engineered for programmers and developers. This new monitor features BenQ’s unique Fine-Coated Panel, designed with advanced anti-glare and anti-reflective properties to create an optimal coding environment.

The RD280U boasts a 28.2-inch display with a 3:2 aspect ratio and 4K+ resolution, allowing for more vertical lines of code. It includes a KVM switch, multi-stream transport, and BenQ’s productivity software suite. The proprietary coding mode enhances text clarity for improved code distinction under various lighting conditions. Additionally, the monitor includes a Coding HotKey for focused workflow, ideal for experienced developers, and the MoonHalo Backlight for better illumination.

The MoonHalo Backlight is designed to improve the coding environment by reducing eye strain and providing extra lighting in low-lit areas while reducing daytime glare. It aims to create an immersive atmosphere for late-night coding sessions.

The RD Series prioritizes comfort with Night Hours Protection, which features minimal brightness, an eye-care filter, dark room optimization, and Brightness Intelligence Gen2 for automatic ambient light adjustment. The Display Pilot 2 software enhances user experience by allowing function adjustments without the OSD and includes tools like Desktop Partition, Software Dimming, Application Mode, Direct Search, Focus, Circadian Mode, HiDPI, and Shortcuts.

Commenting on the launch, Rajeev Singh, Managing Director, BenQ India and South Asia, said, “The RD280U represents a significant leap forward in our commitment to empowering developers with cutting-edge technology. The RD series and its focus on eye care and ergonomics exemplify BenQ’s dedication to enhancing productivity and prioritizing the well-being of developers who spend long hours perfecting their craft. The RD280U is thus more than just a monitor; it’s a comprehensive solution designed to elevate the coding experience and push the boundaries of innovation.”

The BenQ RD280U Programming Monitor is priced at Rs 47,500 and is available for purchase through BenQ’s e-Store, Amazon India, and leading Gadget & IT retail stores across India.
