Asus PB278Q review
Concept to CreationPrecision to the Finest DetailEnvision bigger with 2560
x 1440 WQHD, packing four times the pixel density of 720p! New premium 16:9
wide-format PB278Q LED displays afford 178° wide viewing angles for better
productivity, opening extra multitasking space to fit more windows and
projects on-screen. ASUS exclusive Splendid Video Intelligence Technology,
QuickFit Virtual Scale, and 100% sRGB fidelity ensure reality-defining
color and image accuracy, giving you true “what you imagine is what you
create” power. HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, and dual-link DVI support WQHD
natively, accentuated by room-dominating audio via twin 3W speakers. To
help you stay naturally focused, ergonomic design includes tilt, swivel,
pivot, and height adjustment, plus streamlined cabling that keeps clutter
off your desktop. True-to-life VisualsSee Better and WiderThe PB278Q
features a 16:9 aspect ratio and a LED-backlit 27” WQHD display that
provides 109 pixels per inch (PPI), resulting in high quality 2560 x 1440
visuals – equaling four times the resolution of standard 720p sets. It
allows users to view greater image detail and do more with an onscreen
footprint larger than that of standard displays.The screen’s 109PPI
density means there are 109 RGB matrices within one inch. Generally, the
more pixels a display has, the more lighting (or power) those pixels
require to achieve the best visuals. However, with advanced LED
backlighting on the PB278Q, power and energy savings are no longer
compromised, while better visuals are assured.Made for Work and PlayThe
ASUS PB278Q provides an ultra-wide 178° viewing angle on both horizontal
and vertical planes, thereby minimizing onscreen color shift even when
viewed from extreme angles. With its WQHD display, you enjoy 77% more
desktop space than a full HD screen to spread out your windows and
palettes. It is also about 25% sharper than a generic 27” full HD
display, delivering ultra-smooth visuals thanks to 5ms (GTG) response time.
This ensures you get lag-free experiences in movies and gaming, with the
latter looking more vivid, with all in-game details shown in true color.
The ASUS PB278Q is undoubtedly your best choice for work and play.
Extensive Connectivity Native WQHD Content SupportThe PB278Q features a
host of connectivity options that include HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, and
dual-link DVI for native WQHD, plus D-sub for full HD 1080p content

completely immersive home theater experience.*Better yet, ASUS bundles all
cables in the box: DisplayPort, HDMI, dual-link DVI, and D-sub are all
there! ASUS Exclusive Innovation and Design Smart Contrast Ratio for
lifelike visualsWith 80,000,000:1 ASUS Smart Contrast Ratio (ASCR) and
300cd/m? brightness, the PB278Q enhances display contrast and sharpness by
adjusting backlight luminance to achieve the deepest black tones and
brightest whites, resulting in extra-clear visuals that truly come to life.
QuickFit Virtual Scale for true what you see is what you getASUS includes
its exclusive QuickFit Virtual Scale feature with the PB278Q, allowing you
to preview photos and documents on-screen in their actual size prior to
printing. It can be activated via a monitor hotkey, and serves as a highly
useful guide to accurately view and edit photos in their native size.
