Motion Blur Reduction for Extra Clarity Throughout the Game
Low Blue Light as Eye Safety Precautionary Measure
The Game Mode Loader Lets You in on the Secret

i think the z is better it is newer and offers better software support, idont know why the t is more expensive
XL2420Z is pretty much an enhanced version of XL2420T, with new features that Bad_kitty13 already listed. The price you listed for XL2420T seems weird though. Are you sure it wasn't XL2720T (27 inch version)? Here the price of XL2420T is about 330€ and XL2420Z is about 370€, which seems reasonable.
Yes older units have version 1 firmware. I dont think you can see it on the box. Ask the seller. Other options include sending the monitor to your nearest benq service center or buy/build the tool needed to do the upgrade yourself.
Edit: A picture of the tool one of the guys built in our shop to update XL-Z series benq until the factory built mstar tool arrives. It works well but we had to find an old laptip with parallell port to use it.

Yes, this is the power-user upgrade method!
There are also DIY firmware upgrade instructions using an upgrader dongle that BENQ engineers use.
Much easier -- or just buying a BENQ Z-Series monitor with Version 2 firmware preinstalled.
