ASUS ProArt PA278QV, 27"

Grafik-Monitore sind in den meisten Fällen vollständig auf Profi-Anwender ausgelegt und entsprechend sündhaft teuer. Dass es auch anders geht, möchte der ASUS ProArt PA278QV zeigen, der gerade einmal rund 330 Euro kostet und dennoch mit einer akkuraten Farbdarstellung und einer umfangreichen Ausstattung aufwarten soll. Wie gut sich der 27-Zöller in der Praxis schlägt, klären wir in unserem Test.

In this article, we will test the ASUS ProArt PA278QV. The panel is made based on an 8-bit IPS matrix without FRC with a good 27 inches diagonal. Frameless display has WQHD resolution (2560 × 1440) and is priced at a 299 USD / €349,- marker

ASUS ProArt PA278QV demonstrated to be a very interesting WQHD(2560x1440) solution despite its budget price tag. In most cases, such semi-professional solutions demonstrate mediocre grey colour accuracy, and smooth gradients make one want the best. When trying to calibrate such solutions lose in static contrast. But none of this is about our test subject. The factory calibration present leaves much to be desired, but again, the price tag determines the value of the product within its price range in relation to functionality. Factory profiles Standard and sRGB exploitable, the average deviation of DeltaE*94 for the above profiles is only 1.84 and 1.31, and the color temperature is close to 6500K. Uniformity of illumination is not ideal, the right bottom corner was darkish, the maximum value of a deviation of brightness was 12,86 % that quite can be inherent to certain samples (lottery nobody cancelled).
