BenQ has launched its MA Series, which it says the industry’s first monitors especially designed for MacBook Pro and MacBook Air users.
While the popular BenQ PD Series primarily caters to professionals who utilize Macs and MacBooks, such as designers and creatives, the new MA Series is intended for MacBook Pro and MacBook Air users who utilize external monitors for work and school, according to Houston Wei, senior director of BenQ North America.
The new monitor series provides full Mac compatibility with hassle-free connectivity, eliminated color inconsistencies and unified workplace-design aesthetics, including BenQ-exclusive Nano Matte Panel technology to reduce glare and “ensure a comfortable viewing experience, for harmonious visual appeal,” he adds.
Wei says that, overcoming the color discrepancy between MacBook screens and external monitors, the BenQ Color Lab experts applied “meticulous” Mac color-tuning technology to the new BenQ MA Series monitors. This is designed to ensure high color consistency and provides a unified visual experience across both MacBook and MA Series screens.
In offering integration with MacBooks, the MA Series features brightness and volume sync with MacBook keyboard controls and minimalist Mac-like settings via BenQ Display Pilot 2 software with a one-click screen setup. What’s more, the new MA Series monitors are also compatible with Mac-exclusive functions including Focus mode and Siri commands, to offer a true Mac-like experience.
The two new monitors are available in a 27-inch MA270U and 32-inch MA320U options. They offer flexible height and angle adjustments. The new MA Series monitors are equipped with two USB-C ports, two HDMI ports and single-cable connectivity with USB-C power delivery to provide always-on power charging, even when the monitor is powered off, to keep other devices charged.
The 27-inch MA270U retails for US$459.99 and the 32-inch MA320U retails for $599.99. Both will initially be available at the BenQ Store, Amazon, BestBuy, B&H and Adorama, with other resellers receiving stock in the future.
