GW2270HM

BenQ Website

VS

GW2280

BenQ

from what i understanding is GW2280 is newer model with management cable but did GW2280 monitor much better than GW2270HM?

GW2270HM has advantage by providing VGA, DVI, HDMI. so when i plug in DVI to monitor, i can use HDMI for my TV.

GW2280 only has VGA and HDMIX2. the bad news is my GPU only support 1 DVI and 1 HDMI. so if i plug in HDMI to my TV, i need to use VGA cable to monitor connect to my GPU (i have VGA to DVI adapter)

prefer multi input without converter so i pick 2270

agree with you. i found out that the advantage of GW2080 is cable management, bezel-less and small power usage but i been using monitor for the past 9 years and i know how to hide cable and few wattage didn't hurt the bill.
