Technical Specifications at a Glance

Consistent Colour for Mac and Windows

This monitor introduces a new M Model colour temperature setting. It is designed to match P3 colour performance between macOS devices and the display. So, you get seamless colour consistency across screens. This is vital for photo editing and video production where accuracy is non-negotiable.

Factory-Calibrated Accuracy

Each unit is factory calibrated to Delta E < 2. It is also Calman Verified. This means the colours you see are true to your creative intent right out of the box. You can start critical colour work immediately without extra adjustments.

Smooth 120 Hz Visuals

The ASUS ProArt PA278QGV supports a 120 Hz variable refresh rate. This provides ultra-smooth visuals for fast-rendering tasks and quality checks. In practice, it reduces motion blur and offers a more comfortable viewing experience during long sessions.

Expansive Connectivity Options

You get DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 for video inputs. The built-in USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub adds four Type-A downstream ports. This allows easy connection to peripherals and storage devices. A headphone-out port is also included for audio passthrough.

Ergonomic and Space-Saving Design

The stand offers tilt, swivel, pivot, and 13 cm height adjustments. The base is 33% smaller than its predecessor. This saves desk space while maintaining stability. The quick-release feature supports VESA mounting for flexible setups.

Eye Comfort and Wellbeing

This model features Low Blue Light technology and Flicker-free backlighting. These reduce eye strain during extended use. The anti-glare screen also helps minimise reflections in bright studio environments.
