Asus has unveiled its latest 4K monitor for business and office users, named the VA32UQSB. Sporting an integrated IPS panel, this monitor spans 31.5 inches diagonally, boasting a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels (4K) at a refresh rate of 60 Hz, and supporting HDR10 technology.
With a contrast ratio of 1000:1 and a typical brightness of 350 cd/m², this monitor ensures vibrant visuals. Its swift response time of 4 ms (gray to gray) and 10-bit color depth enhance the overall display quality, although it remains unclear whether this depth is achieved with or without FRC (Frame Rate Control).
Equipped with two 1.2-watt speakers, Adaptive-Sync (presumably lacking LFC), and a black stabilizer, the VA32UQSB provides a rich audio-visual experience. In terms of connectivity, it offers two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.2, a USB 3.2 hub (Gen 1), and headphone ports for seamless device integration.
Ergonomically, the monitor leaves little to be desired, featuring tilt, rotation, height adjustment, pivot functionality, VESA mounting support (100 x 100 mm), blue light filtering, and a flicker-free backlight.
In terms of power efficiency, the Asus VA32UQSB operates on less than 32 watts (SDR) or 41 watts (HDR). Its weight stands at 6.22 kg without the stand, and it measures 714.6 x 423.7 x 53 mm (W x H x D). Asus offers a comprehensive three-year warranty, ensuring user confidence and satisfaction.
