The 27-inch MA. Its 3840 × 2160 IPS panel packs 163 pixels per inch, close to the sharpness of a Mac's own screen, under BenQ's Nano Matte anti-reflection coating. It covers 95% P3 and 99% sRGB, reaches 400 nits with VESA DisplayHDR 400, and one USB-C cable delivers video, data and 90 W charging. Display Pilot 2 links the Mac keyboard's brightness and volume keys to the monitor.

A Second Screen That Looks Like Your Mac

At 163 PPI, macOS scales text on the MA270U as crisply as on a MacBook display, and the M-book colour mode matches the MacBook's look, so windows do not change character when you drag them across. One USB-C cable charges the MacBook at up to 90 W and connects the monitor's USB ports.

SHARP TEXT & COLOUR

Photo, Web and Document Work

Display P3 and sRGB modes cover photo editing and web design, ICCsync switches the colour profile along with the mode, and ePaper and Coding modes help with long reading and programming sessions. Pivot it to portrait for documents and code; Auto Pivot rotates the picture for you.

PLUG AND MATCH

Plug In and Get the Right Colours

BenQ shows the MA270U beside a MacBook with the same wallpaper on both screens. The M-book mode tunes the panel to the MacBook's colour, and ICCsync loads the matching profile, so the two displays look alike from the moment you connect.

A Hub That Connects Everything
USB-C HUB

A Hub That Connects Everything

A MacBook, an iPad and a phone sit around the monitor in BenQ's image. The USB-C link brings the monitor's 5 Gbps USB-A and USB-C ports to the Mac, and the downstream USB-C port charges a phone or tablet at 15 W.

PIVOT 90°

Portrait Mode with Auto Pivot

BenQ's drawing shows the panel turned 90° to portrait, 689.3 mm tall and 367.7 mm wide. Auto Pivot rotates the picture with the screen, which suits code, long documents and vertical web pages.

Frequently Asked Questions & Store Policies

TECH SPECS Why 4K on a 27-inch screen for a Mac?
4K at 27 inches gives 163 pixels per inch. macOS renders text at double density on screens like this, so it looks as crisp as on a MacBook. Lower-density screens make macOS text look softer.
TECH SPECS Does the store title's "Dual USB-C" mean two video inputs?
No. There are two USB-C ports: one upstream port with video (DisplayPort Alt Mode), data and 90 W charging, and one downstream port for data and 15 W charging. Video comes in through that USB-C port or the two HDMI 2.0 inputs.
TECH SPECS How bright is it, and does it support HDR?
BenQ rates it at 400 nits with HDR10 and VESA DisplayHDR 400. That is a bright, comfortable office and editing screen; it is not built for high-end HDR film grading.
TECH SPECS Will it charge my MacBook?
Yes. The USB-C port supplies up to 90 W while it carries the picture and USB data, enough for a MacBook Air and most MacBook Pro models in normal use.
TECH SPECS Can I use it with a Windows laptop or a PC?
Yes. Any laptop whose USB-C port outputs DisplayPort video works over that cable, and a PC or console connects over HDMI 2.0. The Mac-specific extras, such as keyboard brightness control, need macOS.
