BenQ Expands MA Series with New 4K Monitors Featuring Nano Gloss Panels and MacBook Integration

BenQ has launched two new additions to its MA series: the 27-inch MA270UP and 31.5-inch MA320UP monitors. Both models feature 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution IPS panels with BenQ's proprietary Nano Gloss technology, designed to emulate the visual properties of high-end glass displays while delivering deeper black levels.

The monitors prioritize color accuracy over gaming performance, featuring a 60Hz refresh rate and 5ms gray-to-gray response time. They cover 99% of the sRGB color space, with DCI-P3 coverage at 95% for the MA270UP and 97% for the MA320UP. This positions them as solutions for general productivity and content consumption rather than professional color-critical work.

A key focus is seamless integration with Apple ecosystems. BenQ's Colour Tuning Technology actively minimizes color discrepancies between these external displays and MacBook built-in screens. Users can control monitor brightness directly from their MacBook keyboard, supported by BenQ's Display Pilot 2 software for calibration management.

Ergonomic flexibility includes height adjustment, tilt control, and 90-degree pivot functionality for portrait orientation. Connectivity options feature a USB-C port with 90W power delivery for single-cable laptop charging, alongside HDMI, DisplayPort, and additional USB ports for peripherals.

Targeting users needing consistent multi-dispace setups rather than prepress professionals, these monitors combine modern connectivity with BenQ's display engineering. The Nano Gloss surface treatment aims to reduce reflections while maintaining vibrancy—a balance traditionally challenging for matte finishes.

Pricing and availability details haven't been disclosed, but the models represent BenQ's continued focus on Apple-centric productivity solutions with specialized display calibration features.
