Gradient issue with BenQ G2420HDBL monitor - anyone else?

[Rikki]

Hey folks,

I bought a pair of these monitors about a month ago after everyone saying how amazing they are, but as soon as I started to use them in Photoshop I could see issues with the colour selector and a really bad banding issue in the gradients :

BenQ monitor:

Dell 19" 1907 which is about 4 years old:

Anyone had this kind of issue? Not seen anyone report on it before so Im a bit confused :S

Many thanks,

Rik

Im sure the aging Dell 19" is a TN panel, but Ive never seen anything quite as bad as this for years. Esp a monitor that gets an almost religous following on here.

How do I turn on / off Senseye? All I can see in the menus is "Senseeye demo : off"

Btw, 3 days later I get this from benq:

Yes, that crap was looked at for 3 seconds and once my vision returned, immediately disabled.

Sometimes I think Im the only one not wearing rose tinted BenQ glasses - me and you now of course
