Colour me intrigued when BenQ suggested that PC Pro review its monitor designed for programmers. Two obvious questions sprung to mind: “Why?” Quickly followed by: “How?”
Answering the first question is relatively simple. Distractions are the absolute enemy of programmers so you need to do everything you can to help them focus: in a monitor’s case that means reducing eye strain and reflections. BenQ’s answer is its Nano Matte technology, adding extra layers to reduce the visibility of overhead lights. This diffused the glare from my spotlights so well that I had to hunt for them against a black background, with the only sign being a weak spread of light.
