Founded in 2008, ZOWIE focused on creating professional esports gear. A year later, ZOWIE launched its first mouse—the EC Series, co-developed with Counter-Strike legend HeatoN, laying the groundwork for its mission.
BenQ, a display expert with 35+ years of history, teamed up with ZOWIE in 2010. Together, they created the first gamer-focused LCD monitor, the XL2410, which quickly became a global favorite. In 2015, BenQ and ZOWIE officially merged, combining expertise and passion under BenQ ZOWIE as known today.
Since then, ZOWIE has been the leading and most trusted brand in the FPS pro-scene, with 92% of CS2 Players and 74% of Valorant players using ZOWIE monitors (Source: Prosettings.net)
