BenQ GW2790T 27" Full HD 100Hz Home Office Monitor
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
BenQ GW2790T 27" Full HD Home Office Monitor (GW2790T) - 3 Year Local Warranty
A Height-Adjustable 27-Inch Panel at an Entry Deployment Price
The T in GW2790T is the stand: 110 mm of height travel, tilt from -5° to 20°, 20° swivel each way and a full 90° pivot into portrait. That matters more than most specifications when you are fitting out a floor, because a fixed-height screen forces every user to either crane their neck or stack the base on books. The panel itself is a 27-inch IPS at 1920 x 1080 with 99% sRGB coverage, 1300:1 native contrast and a 100Hz refresh rate — a straightforward, comfortable screen for desk work.
Portrait Rotation for Documents, Code and Long Reports
The 90° pivot turns the GW2790T into a tall document screen, which is where a 27-inch Full HD panel earns its keep. A full A4 page fits vertically at readable size, and long financial filings, contracts or source files scroll far less. In portrait the unit stands 666 mm tall, so check clearance under overhead shelving. A common Singapore office layout is one of these rotated for reading beside a landscape primary screen, which suits legal, compliance and back-office roles particularly well.
BenQ Eye-Care with Ambient Brightness Adaptation
The panel is flicker-free with hardware Low Blue Light and uses Brightness Intelligence Gen2, an ambient sensor that trims panel brightness as office lighting changes through the day instead of leaving the screen at a fixed level into the evening. An ePaper mode renders text in high-contrast monochrome for long reading, Colour Weakness mode assists staff with colour vision deficiency, and Eye Reminder prompts breaks. TÜV Rheinland certifies the GW2790T for Eye Comfort 2.0, EyeSafe 2.0, Flicker-free and Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution).
Simple Cabling and Low Running Cost
Inputs are two HDMI 1.4 ports and one DisplayPort 1.2, which covers a docked laptop plus a desktop or meeting-room source without a switch. Built-in 2 W stereo speakers and a headphone jack handle call audio at desk volume. Typical power draw is 25 W with a maximum of 35 W and under 0.5 W asleep, and the unit carries Energy Star 8.0, TCO Certified 9.0 and EPEAT Bronze — the ratings that turn up on green-procurement checklists for government and MNC tenders.

Compatibility & Installation
Mounting and orientation
The supplied stand gives 110 mm of height travel, -5° to 20° tilt, 20° swivel each way and a full 90° pivot into portrait. For arms and wall brackets the panel uses the standard 100 x 100 mm VESA pattern and weighs 4.2 kg without the base. Rotated into portrait the unit stands 666 mm tall and 384 mm wide, so measure the clearance under any overhead shelving before committing to a portrait layout.
What it connects to
Two HDMI 1.4 inputs and one DisplayPort 1.2 input cover three sources at once — typically a docked laptop on DisplayPort plus a desktop and a meeting-room feed on HDMI. All carry the panel's full 1920 x 1080 at 100Hz. HDCP 1.4 is supported. There is no USB-C on this model, so single-cable laptop docking needs a separate dock; if that is the requirement, the GW2786TC is the same size with a 65 W USB-C port.
Audio
Built-in 2 W stereo speakers and a headphone jack handle Teams and Zoom audio at desk volume. There is no built-in microphone on this model, so staff on heavy call duty should be issued a headset or given a USB-C model that carries a noise-cancelling mic.
Management and green procurement
BenQ's Eye-CareU utility configures Brightness Intelligence, break reminders and low blue light behaviour from the desktop, which is the practical way to hold a consistent configuration across a floor of identical units. For tender paperwork, the GW2790T carries Energy Star 8.0, TCO Certified 9.0 and EPEAT Bronze.

Frequently Asked Questions — BenQ GW2790T
What does the "T" in GW2790T mean?
In BenQ's GW naming, T indicates the ergonomic height-adjustable stand. The plain GW2790 is the same 27-inch Full HD panel on a tilt-only base. A C suffix adds USB-C and a Q indicates QHD resolution.
How much does the stand adjust?
110 mm of height travel, tilt from -5° to 20°, 20° swivel each way and a full 90° pivot into portrait. That covers the range most ergonomics assessments ask for without needing an aftermarket arm.
Can I use it in portrait for documents?
Yes, the stand pivots a full 90°. Rotated, the unit stands 666 mm tall and 384 mm wide, which fits an A4 page vertically at comfortable reading size — well suited to contract review, compliance work and long reports. Check clearance under overhead shelving first.
Is Full HD enough on a 27-inch screen?
At 82 PPI text is physically larger but less crisp than on a QHD panel of the same size. For data entry, browser-based line-of-business applications and general office work it is comfortable and needs no display scaling. If you want sharper text and more desktop area at 27 inches, the GW2790Q is the QHD version.
Does it have USB-C for single-cable laptop docking?
No. Inputs are two HDMI 1.4 and one DisplayPort 1.2. For USB-C video, data and power over one cable, look at the GW2786TC at the same size or the GW2790QT in QHD.
What eye-care certifications does it carry?
TÜV Rheinland certifies the GW2790T for Eye Comfort 2.0, EyeSafe 2.0, Flicker-free and Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution). It also has Brightness Intelligence Gen2 ambient adaptation, an ePaper reading mode, Colour Weakness assistance and Eye Reminder break prompts.
Does it meet green procurement requirements?
BenQ lists Energy Star 8.0, TCO Certified 9.0 and EPEAT Bronze for this model, which covers the environmental criteria that commonly appear in Singapore government and MNC tender documents. Typical power draw is 25 W.
Does it come with a Singapore warranty and a GST invoice?
Yes. Every BenQ GW2790T sold by SourceIT comes with the BenQ Singapore 3 Year Local Warranty and a GST invoice.
