Asus ProArt Professional Monitor is now officially available in Nepal!

February 18, 2024

Just a while back, we curated a list of the best monitors available at every price range and for every kind of user in Nepal. Noticeably, not a single designer/professional display made it there because while some were beyond expensive, others were just to hard to get your hands on reliably. But now, an Asus ProArt Display has made its way to Nepal, which while being a little on the expensive side, can be reliably purchased via Asus-authorized Nagmani International.

In this article let’s take a look at the Asus ProArt 27 Professional Monitor, its specs, features, price in Nepal, and availability.

ASUS ProArt Display 278QV Overview:

Panel Tech and Resolution

The PA278QV Professional Monitor features a 27-inch IPS panel of WQHD resolution. What that means is that you get nice viewing angles, and crisp details, alongside a relatively large canvas area. 2560 x 1440 pixels in a 27-inch monitor roughly gives you a pixel density of 109 PPI which is sharp enough for professional use besides just retaining more details. It can also go up to 75Hz to provide a smoother and more fluid user experience.

Colors and Accuracy

Being a designer panel, you get great color coverage that spans the whole of REC 709 space (including 100% sRGB). Colors are represented well with a delta E value of less than 2. Furthermore, the ProArt monitor is factory calibrated to spew accurate colors, and its calman verification is a testament to the same.

Moreover, you can switch between different color modes (notably sRGB and Rec 709) for reading, use in low light, or rapid rendering.

IO and Features

Moving onto the IO, there isn’t any wow factor here but you get your basic HDMI, and display ports. There’s a mini display port, a power jack, and a USB A hub as well. Since you aren’t going to be pushing very high fps, or that many pixels, the HDMI and DP aren’t the latest and greatest at generation 1.4 and 1.2 respectively.

There are also some extra features like Asus ProArt Palette which lets you customize your display’s color hue, temperature, and gamma levels. There’s also ASUS ‘ultra low-blue light’ and ASUS ‘Flicker Free’ tech that protect your vision and prevent eye strain, headaches, and fatigue.
