The latter should not be particularly convincing due to the mediocre brightness of 300 cd/m². Further technical features of the new wide screen monitor are a 1000: 1 contrast ratio, a 4 ms gray-to-grey response time, 10-bit color depth, and 95 percent DCI-P3. Two internal 3-watt speakers including an 8-watt subwoofer take care of the sound reproduction if required.

The range of interfaces includes two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4, a headphone output, a USB 3.0 hub, and USB-C with DisplayPort alternate mode and 60-watt power delivery.

With the exception of a pivot, all common mechanical adjustment options are available in this new wide monitor, namely rotation, inclination, and height adjustment. A VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm), a blue light filter, and flicker-free background lighting are also used. A mode for people with color vision impairment can be activated via OSD.
