Chief what are your thoughts on UFO test not doing well with Firefox vs Chrome? Is there a reason for this?

So I'm currently sitting with both the XL2746S and the XL2546S while waiting on a supplemental LG CX 48. I'm curious the consensus on:

- 27 vs 25
- If anyone has any conclusive information around the 6bit+FRC vs full 8bit?

Thanks!

milojr21 and Chief, thanks for replies!

indstri, Could you compare them? I ordered 25 from amazon.de but its not yet in stock, should be soon tho.

Anyone know when can we expect some serious reviews on 2546s ?

1 thing I've noticed: With my old Eizo FS2735 and Blur Reduction (reduced Brightness) I've got headache after some time, but with DyAc+ (full brightness) not, I really like it. Tried it today with and without in Valorant.

Yeah if you don't get a headache with it then you can just keep DyAc+ on all the time since it is brighter than w/it off and webpages scroll more smoothly as well.

Could someone use Lux light meter phone app on 2746S? At max brightness with dyac on and off, open paint and point the front camera at the white background. Would really like to know what numbers u get. (I know it's not an accurate measurement but still...)

Hi,

if I buy the XL2546S now, can I update the firmware later on manually or do I need to send back the monitor to BenQ? Probably there's a huge difference between v001 and v002 when it comes to strobing on lower frequencies... It's finally on stock in Germany but I'm not sure if they will send it with the newer firmware that's why I'm asking. Any could be helpful and much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

On which website do you see it in Germany? Still can't find it anywhere in Europe...
