FYI re: the S "discontinuation" email https://www.reddit.com/r/BenQ/comments/hshs86/xl2546s_discontinued_newer_version_in_september/fysku13?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x Hi everyone, we are so sorry for the confusion caused. Due to a shortage of parts during COVID-19 the XL2546S has not been abl...

I have no issue with BenQ choosing discontinuing the S-model. I presume it's a COVID impact, but I don't know. The lack of messaging, and my own personal experience with my "cancelled" order not really being cancelled leaves a bit to be desired. Truth is, the monitor been so limited in availability ...

I emailed and then called BenQ support yesterday to cancel my order. I can appreciate the COVID impact, but there just was not enough clarity regarding the circumstances or what the "improvements" will be come Sept for me. I was told over the phone that my order was indeed cancelled. In spite of tha...

Ummm what ??

I received the same. I managed to order the XL2546S off of the BenQ site yesterday, so I do not know if that email is intended as a cancellation. I am a bit agitated- it feels a bit like a bait and switch, as they had emailed me to let me know of this week's new stock.

Reguarding the Motion blur/ghosting with AMA off its very slight is there a TN monitor out there better at handling this than others I don't really want a gimmick feature as I can't see it working too well with a console? Since you have an X and are still looking at 1080p, it might be worth checkin...

Microsoft & Samsung have a long standing partnership going back all the way to the Xbox 360 launch ... Yeah, after more time thinking about it I assumed this feature has more to do with those upcoming TVs than *my* particular space. There is not an abundance of monitors capable of 1440p @ 120-144hz...

Following link suggests your monitor has Freesync only over Displayport. https://www.amd.com/en/products/freesync-monitors If you find a monitor capable of Freesync over HDMI, consider this from Xbox staff: https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxinsiders/comments/8hr019/xbox_one_insiders_120hz_faq/dypeaht/ Re...

Would you be able to elaborate on this for my education? With the exception of the issues of the 240hz model, most of the new stuff seems to review well.

Found it interesting that I have only seen one success story for achieving 1440p/120hz, and that's with the CHG70 when selecting 120hz via the monitor UI.

Otherwise, everyone else currently seems to be limited to 1080p/120hz.

An additional FYI: Edge still capped at 60hz.

Had hoped to run some tests on the Xbox browser, given going from "Automatic" to "HDMI" input provides a message that monitor features/image quality may decrease. No such luck.
