ASUS PB278Q 27-Inch WQHD LED-lit Super-IPS Professional Graphics Monitor Reviews
| 52 of 55 people found the following review helpful  Excellent Multipurpose Gaming/Media/Content Creation Monitor!, By This review is from: ASUS PB278Q 27-Inch WQHD LED-lit Super-IPS Professional Graphics Monitor (Personal Computers) I think that the PB278Q is the best value WQHD monitor that you'll find that's currently available as of 10/8/12. I got mine from another Online Retailer because they offered a pre-order bonus, but the price was the same overall. Most manufactures are now putting out WQHD monitors, but prices are still very high. As the market becomes more saturated with different manufactures making WQHD Monitors you'll see prices go down, but don't expect this for at least 2 years. The PB278Q uses a PLS based panel which when compared to other IPS based panels it has higher contrast, improved viewing angles, a faster response time, exhibits less reflectiveness, produces a clearer and crisper image, is 10% brighter than competing technologies; all while maintaing lower power consumption levels.Originally there were to be two variants of this monitor. One for Content Professionals (the PA - ProArt Series) that would come factory calibrated and have some additional "Quick Fit" settings. The...

As always, if you have a professional tool to calibrate the display, it will be even better. However, this display has excellent color reproduction/accuracy out of the box that you don't really have to have a calibrator to enjoy it. For those who don't have a calibrator, I recommend you to adjust the brightness down a little bit since it came with 100% brightness out of the box. The antiglare coating on this display is very light (hence they call this monitor semi glossy) and thus when compared to the heavy coated anti glare monitor like the old Dell U2711/3011 series, it looks much better. Also when compared to the full glossy panel such as Apple Thunderbolt, this monitor has no glares at all, which is extremely good for people who hate glares, especially when you are a professional graphics... Read more 10 of 11 people found the following review helpful Better than Apple's Thunderbolt Display, This review is from: ASUS PB278Q 27-Inch WQHD LED-lit Super-IPS Professional Graphics Monitor (Personal Computers) I bought this to replace my Apple Thunderbolt Display, which didn't work properly (won't wake up along with MacBook Pro) and costs $300 more. I connected this display to my MacBook Pro with a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. Compared to Thunderbolt Display, this ASUS one has -Pros: - Much less glare, significantly. - Adjustable height, and can easily be rotated to portrait. - Being able to connect to non-Mac computers using DisplayPort, HDMI, VGA, and DVI. Cons: - Image is not as vivid. - Poor sound quality. - No other functional ports (Apple Thunderbolt Display comes with 3 USB 2.0, one Thunderbolt, one FireWire, and one Ethernet ports.) - Takes more efforts to set up. But overall, I'm very satisfied with this replacement. |
