Asus VA27UQSB 24-inch 4K Monitor with HDR10 for Home Office

The Taiwanese company Asus is listing a new best 2160p monitor for business and office purposes. The VA27UQSB has a 27-inch IPS panel with 4K resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels ), achieves a maximum of 60 Hz, and supports HDR10. The latter, however, is unlikely to be particularly impressive due to the lack of dimming zones and the moderate brightness of 350 cd/m² (typ.).

The 4K on a 27-inch monitor also mentions 10-bit color depth, 99 percent sRGB, 5 ms response time (gray to gray), and a 1000:1 contrast. If you want to play games on the device from time to time, you can use the anti-tearing technology Adaptive Sync and various GamePlus features such as a crosshair overlay. Two speakers are also on board, but each only produces 2 watts.

The interface selection includes two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4, a USB 3.2 hub (Gen 1), and a headphone output. In terms of ergonomics, there is hardly anything left to be desired thanks to tilt, rotation, height adjustment, pivot, VESA mount (100 x 100 mm), blue light filtering, and flicker-free backlight. The power consumption of the best 2160p monitor is estimated at less than 30 watts.
