True-to-Life Color Fidelity
Featuring a Calman verified 27" IPS panel, this monitor is factory-calibrated for Delta E <2 accuracy, providing 10-bit, 1.07 billion colors with 95% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB coverage.
Complements Macs
Enable the M Model P3 setting to match the monitor's color settings with your MacBook's. You can adjust the brightness settings using the MacBook's control buttons.
True to Life Color
HDR10 support with a 3000:1 max contrast ratio and 350 nits brightness enhances visuals with realistically bright highlights and deep shadows.
Light Sync Technology
A front-facing ambient light sensor synchronizes the display's color gamut to match with your environment. Use the ASUS DisplayWidget Center app to fine-tune your screen's settings using a mouse instead of the monitor buttons.
2D/3D Rendering Friendly
Supporting a 120 Hz variable refresh rate (VRR), the ProArt Display is ideal for game developers who need to conduct quality checks.
Integrated Speakers
Enjoy music and videos with the built-in 2W stereo speaker system. Connect a pair of headphones to the 3.5mm audio jack for listening privacy.

Rotate the screen in either direction to view content in portrait mode. You can adjust the height, tilt, and swivel to your preferences. The 100 x 100mm VESA mounting pattern allows you to easily attach the display to a swivel arm or multi-monitor stand.
ASUS Power Sync
ASUS Power Sync allows compatible HDMI-connected devices such as NUC computers to power on/off simultaneously with the monitor, so that they work like an all-in-one system.

ASUS PA278QGV Reviews

The price is great for the picture you get

This is a really good monitor for the price. The color accuracy and 120hz refresh rate work very well for me. I have tested the monitor with various tests and is very accurate, but it is still new, I just got it. I like the preset color pallets, RGB, Adobe RGB, BT.202, P3, DICOM, HDR, and 2 user custom modes. I understand that I don't get the newer UBS-C/Display Port connections, but it does have a DP 2.1 that work similarly. The USB hub is convenient, creators tend to have a lot of USB connections for input/controllers, printers, UPS systems, sound, storage, etc.. I plug in my keyboard, mouse, and web-cam, so regardless of computer connected, I can use the same keyboard and mouse. It doesn't support KVM switching between computers with one set of mouse/keyboard at the moment technically, but works with each computer after driver install, etc. The price is great for the picture you get
