Expanded ASUS ProArt Display PA27UCX-K Professional Monitor Key Features:

Excellent Colour and Contrast from Any Viewing Angle

Direct type LED backlight displays have narrow viewing angles, which can make collaboration with clients or colleagues on colour-critical work challenging due to inaccurate colours being displayed to viewers seated to the side. ASUS Off-Axis Contrast Optimization (OCO) technology solves this problem with a compensation layer that controls light transmittance around the edges, reducing halo effects by 80% and providing a 7X contrast-ratio enhancement for dark parts of the image when viewing the screen from an angle.

World's 1st 27-inch 4K Monitor with Mini LED Backlight

ASUS ProArt PA27UCX-K 4K monitor incorporates the leading technology of mini LED backlight, which is packed in physically half smaller LEDs than the conventional in more densely to increases the granularity of brightness control. ProArt PA27UCX-K offers individual backlight control of a whopping 576 zones with higher luminance and deeper darkness to deliver the best contrast and accurate reproduction of HDR contents.

ASUS Smart HDR Technology

ASUS ProArt PA27UCX-K features ASUS Smart HDR Technology, which supports multiple HDR (high-dynamic-range) formats and multiple PQ curves to suit content creators' specific requirements. Dolby Vision HDR transforms your viewing experience with ultravivid image — incredible brightness, contrast, and colour to expand content creators' storytelling possibilities . It achieves this astonishing image quality through cinema-inspired HDR technology that can deliver billions of colours. HDR-10 support ensures compatibility with existing streaming video services and a growing list of HDR-enabled games, including PQ hard clip curve, PQ Optimized and PQ Basic, to cover all content creators' needs. The PA27UCX-K's HLG (hybrid log gamma) preset allows users to both immerse in, as well as create material for broadcast and satellite TV platforms such as the BBC iPlayer, Japan NHK TV, and DirecTV.

Supports Dolby Vision

Dolby Vision HDR transforms entertainment experience with ultra-vivid picture quality, providing incredible brightness, contrast, colour and detail to bring entertainment to life. With Dolby Vision, the PA27UCX-K can bring confidence for content creators that their images are represented with ultimate consistency.

Transform Your Viewing Experience

IPS with 1,000 nits peak brightness, supporting Quantum Dot technology provides an entire spectrum of colours to play with. PA27UCX-K support 97% DCI-P3, 99.5% Adobe RGB, 100% sRGB, 100% Rec. 709 and 83% Rec.2020 colour spaces for video editing and post-production.

Industry Leading Colour Fidelity for Truly Expressive Hues

ProArt PA27UCX-K is factory pre-calibrated using a new, three-scale process to guarantee industry-leading colour fidelity. The display then undergoes stringent testing using ASUS advanced grayscale tracking technology to ensure smoother colour gradations, better uniformity and high colour accuracy with an industry-leading delta-E (△E) < 1 colour difference value. Each grayscale level is also carefully measured and set to ensure compliance with the precise DICOM standard for medical use.

The Most Flexible Hardware Calibration

Whether you're using a desktop, laptop, PC or Mac, ASUS ProArt Hardware Calibration offers colour accuracy tuning and uniformity compensation to make things easy when it's time to recalibrate your display's brightness and colour consistency. ProArt displays are compatible with most major calibrators, including those from X-Rite, Datacolor and Klein, and also work seamlessly with Calman and Light Illusion ColourSpace CMS professional hardware calibration software to make calibration faster and easier. (Calibration device and Calman and Light Illusion ColourSpace CMS software are not included with ProArt PA27UCX-K).

Choose the optimum setting for different scenarios and colour spaces. Display calibration offers adjustable brightness, colour gamut, colour temperature and many other parameters ensuring consistent and precise colours for all your content. With two matrix levels of Uniformity compensation, designers can ensure a consistent brightness level of the screen. ProArt Calibration algorithm compensates brightness data, reducing colour shift while moving graphics on anywhere of screen. ASUS ProArt Calibration technology saves all colour parameter profiles on the ProArt monitor’s internal scaler IC chip, instead of on your PC or connected device. The calibration and the look-up table subsequently rewritten, allowing users to connect it to devices with different operating systems or applications without needing to adjust the calibration settings. Signal distortion between the IC and the LCD optical spectrum is also reduced.
