SE for “Serious Entertainment”
With the SE2241, world-renowned digital display provider BenQ delivers yet more entertainment options for today’s modern lifestyle, which blends work and play, office and home. Consumers who are tight on space, or tight on time, will find that BenQ’s latest Monitor TV elevates life to a new level of enjoyment, efficiency, and fun by adeptly centralizing all multimedia and information display to one place. Numerous performance and proprietary technologies promise flawless display of all TV content as well as all PC applications. A 10,000:1 Auto Contrast Enhancement – a BenQ exclusive development – intelligently optimizes contrast levels via automatic adjustment of the display backlight for unprecedented black levels. Such contrast precision, perfectly adapted to every individual scene, amplifies dark detail definition to reveal never-noticed elements lurking in the darkest game or move scenes.
Onboard Senseye Technology, a proprietary image enhancement engine that mimics the human eye, produces exquisite, life-like clarity and vibrancy. Four Senseye preset modes (Cinema, Dynamic, Standard, and Custom modes) offer one-touch fine-tuning of both PC content such as documents, games, web-browsing, and picture viewing, and TV content such as HDTV broadcasts, Blu-ray movies, camcorder videos, and console games. The native 1920x1080 resolution also enhances entertainment visuals to 1080p/24Hz purity while increasing PC productivity by displaying more information and lessening scrolling. Digital noise reduction, 3D Y/C comb filter, de-interlacing, and rapid 5ms response time likewise eliminate image artifacts, blurring, and ghosting. Digital sound emitting from dual 3-watt speakers can be adjusted to Classic, Pop, Rock, and Jazz via preset audio modes. A convenient headphone jack thoughtfully placed within reach is a nod to serious gamers. Comprehensive connectivity testifies to the SE2241’s work-play engineering: component, composite, S-Video, D-Sub and HDMI inputs allow for a variety of PC, HDTV, and Blu-Ray sources, as well as gaming consoles.
The SE2241’s progressive fashion sense is as impressive as well-appointed specifications. The rise and fall of oceanic waves was the inspiration for the decorative speaker housing, which captivates the eyes with a 3-dimensional undulation of staggered waves. A slim, high-gloss ebony bezel accented by a polished silver frame reflects an understated elegance. Even the back of the SE2241 offers visual delight, graced by a curvaceous form in mirror black.
