BenQ MOBIUZ Launch its First 48" OLED Gaming Monitor, the EX480UZ

Gamers throughout the UK will be able to experience a new level of 4K gaming, with the launch of BenQ's first OLED Gaming Monitor, the MOBIUZ EX480UZ. BenQ, the world-leading human technology and solutions provider, has created a next-level 4K 48" OLED gaming monitor. The newest monitor to join the BenQ and MOBIUZ family boasts a 0.1 ms response time, FreeSync Premium and a 120 Hz refresh rate to support smooth and uninterrupted gameplay.

"We developed the MOBIUZ EX480UZ to offer gamers a new immersive experience with our first OLED monitor," says Royce Lye, Managing Director of BenQ UK & Ireland. "Gamers, either professional or amateur, can enjoy a new audio and visual gaming experience with top-of-the-range display technology that can support smooth, uninterrupted gameplay, but also promote healthy extended used with our latest built-in eyecare technology."
It is the first model in the MOBIUZ range to adopt the newly-optimized HDRi modes for enhanced vibrant colours, without sacrificing bright and dark details with BenQ's exclusive Light Tuner technology. Color Vibrance is also now available to be adjusted in both Game and Cinema HDRi modes for added flexibility. This enhanced visual performance combined with treVolo audio provides users with the best gaming experience.

TreVolo sound systems within the monitor allow for spectacular sound production for true immersion in game. With built-in speakers and five immersive sound modes, gamers can easily adjust the monitor to the perfect sound experience for each individual game. The visual and audio technologies within BenQ's monitor gives ultimate control back to the gamers, offering a one-stop shop option for all their gaming needs, without needing to rely on multiple devices, headsets and distractions.

Combined with the latest BenQ OLED 4K technology, the new MOBIUZ monitor also includes BenQ's latest eyecare technology. Recent years have seen a spike in the popularity of gaming monitors and viewing equipment, but often with the risk of gamers developing eye strain. However, BenQ's eyecare technology includes low blue light, flicker-free and brightness intelligence plus, ensuring gamers' vision is safeguarded during their gameplay. The visual benefits of the latest EX480UZ model makes this one of the first OLED gaming monitors to not only promote healthy gameplay but also expanded immersion.

BenQ's latest stylish monitor allows any gamer to lose themselves within the experience, regardless of the game they are playing, be that on a PS5, XBOX Series X, Nintendo Switch or a PC.

The brand new MOBIUZ EX480UZ is available now for a RRP of £1599.99.

It's a TV, which we all know makes a second-rate monitor at best
Look, it even has its own TV remote.

There's no shame in admitting it's a TV, but if you're going to call it a monitor it has to be able to display text without giving you a migraine from dumb non-RGB subpixel layouts, and have a dot pitch suitable for sitting in front of at arms reach. Clearly, this thing is going to fail on both counts.

£1600 buys you a much nicer, larger, and more capable TV from an actual TV manufacturer, too.

It is a monitor, it has no cable tuner. It is for connecting to your PC. Also WOLED can display text just fine, ask the million people using one as a large format display.

The 42" model is better for PC use and the 48" model makes much less sense. I bought one today for a specific space that perfectly fits 48" and will be mostly used for movie viewing and console gaming, but if it fit a 55" I would have bought that for the same price.

I do agree that you can just buy the same thing direct from LG for half the price, so... why bother here. But that is normal for this kind of product, large discounts.

SPDIF connector instead of eARC? Really? If somebody has an Atmos Soundbar or Surround Sound system, SPDIF is limited to 5.1 audio with no support for upfiring or downfiring speakers. Even mid range soundbars support that nowadays. How is it monitor manufacturers keep getting this so wrong? If people want to use SPDIF, every motherboard already has that.

You know what motherboards don't have though? An eARC connection so that a single chain for audio and video can passthrough without needing a separate cables for each. If TV manufacturers can do this at a fair price then so can monitor manufacturers. Rant over.

Can just use the cleartype config tool to adjust it, did it first for my old 1080p LG telly years ago that is BGR and made it look clean. DPI being much higher on 4k oleds it still looks good to me on an LG A1. Still, did it on that and looks sharper without the chromatic aberration effect you get when it's wrong.

Yeah, but god forbid you want to watch TV on it after you finished playing, because it's a monitor.
