ASUS MB17AHG Overview

Boost hybrid work productivity with the ZenScreen MB17AHG 17.3" 144 Hz Portable Monitor from ASUS, which delivers smooth, fluid visuals alongside a slim profile and lightweight design. It may be used in either portrait or landscape orientations and functions either as a primary or secondary monitor via its 1/4"-20 tripod mount or integrated L-shaped kickstand.

The ZenScreen MB17AHG features IPS panel technology, a 144 Hz refresh rate, a 5 ms (GtG) response time, and more. The IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel affords wide viewing angles of 178°, so content can be viewed from almost any direction, while a refresh rate of 144 Hz means that the display refreshes 144 times per second for smoother motion. A response time of 5 ms means color changes will be virtually imperceptible. Lastly, coverage for 100% of the sRGB color gamut delivers a wider color space and more lifelike images, while FreeSync Premium and Adaptive-Sync synchronize the display's refresh rate to the frame rate of the graphics card to greatly reduce or eliminate stuttering, juddering, and tearing during gaming and video playback.

ASUS built this display with a non-glare surface, a native resolution of 1920 x 1080, support for 16.7 million colors, a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, a static contrast ratio of 800:1, and 300 nits brightness. Connectivity is achieved using one HDMI 1.4 port and two USB-C ports, which both support DisplayPort and power. Audio may be output using the 3.5mm headphone jack.
