The build quality is praised as premium and sturdy, and the anti-glare coating is effective in most lighting conditions.

BenQ ZOWIE XL2586X+ 24.1" Black 2025
The BenQ Zowie XL2586X+ monitor receives high praise for its exceptional quality, motion handling, and suitability for competitive gaming, with users calling it the best and praising the supplier's service. However, one reviewer notes that if you already own a 360Hz or 480Hz monitor, the upgrade to 600Hz may not feel significantly different, possibly due to age. Overall, sentiment is positive, with minor caveats about the perceived benefit of the high refresh rate.
Pros
- Exceptional quality
- Superb motion handling
- Great for competitive gaming
- Fast and reliable service
Cons
- Minimal difference from 360Hz/480Hz
- Perceived benefit may be age-dependent
